Heh. Flattery will get you nowhere, Xanxus.

[He lightly swats Xan on the shoulder, plainly teasing, before passing a glance at the kiddie section.]

But...is it a girlfriend that you've kept hidden away in Italia? Do you need a hand? What I've got in mind doesn't matter if a friend needs help.

[variaboss]

No? It got me all the way over here didn't it? [ And because it's Koumei, he doesn't actually hit back. After all, it's just a friendly swat. Nothing to get punchy over. ]

No. I just decided that I needed to start wearing Hello Doggie [ Because like the Solstice Bear, this world doesn't have Hello Kitty. ] I think I'd rock the fuck out of sparkly purple. Nah, man. It's for my little girl. I want to send her something. So how about we help each other. You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours.

[dishevelment]

So it is a secret girl from Italia, I see.

[Koumei just grinned.]

I'm trying to change my look a little for when I'm on the town, so any suggestion is welcome. How old is your little girl?

[variaboss]

You don't want suggestions from me, Mei. I'll just tell you to put on the Princess Peach dress again. Don't think I wouldn't. [ Mostly because Mei had really rocked it and it had been fun. Something they could just laugh at now. ] But maybe try different colors or styles. You could always dress like me. I'm sure you'd have the girls falling at your feet if you went around shirtless.

[ He grins hugely and then it sort of falls and he drops his voice into a whisper. He really does want to keep this out of the tabloids for as long as possible, even after his Twitter freakout. ] She's eight. Eight-year-olds like sparkly puppy shit right??

[dishevelment]

I don't think I'd be very good at pulling off the shirtless look quite like you do. I'm a little too skinny, for one.

[He was a bird-like man who was all gangly limbs and tangled hair-- not necessarily material for a girl to drool over, quite frankly.

But he'll drop his voice sotto voce for Xanxus' benefit when the subject of the kid comes up.]

Usually. I think rainbows and unicorns are popular this season, too.

[variaboss]

Some people like the stork look. I mean I'm a bit of a leg man myself. So maybe some short shorts instead. Show off them legs.

[ He really is teasing Mei now. He knows the man will wear what he wants, regardless of the joking. But he is very happy they are keeping the real conversation now. Let the fan hear their flirty banter and add another entry into the Carnie Indulgence book and keep the important stuff on the down low. ]

Rainbows... I can do rainbows. Rainbows are important. You want to help me find some cute bullshit then? Cause I have no goddamn idea what's cute. I might just buy her a rainbow skull or something.

[dishevelment]

[Hmm. It was food for thought-- and there were some wonderfully patterned shorts that were hot this season that he was curious about. It would be something that he would keep in mind for later.

The commentary, however, earns a thoughtful hum.]

Who knows? If she's your kid, she might like rainbow skulls.

[variaboss]

[ He laughs at that and reaches out to smack Mei on the back in a friendly manner. ]

Probably. Though her mom said something about frogs. She's supposed to like frogs or something.

[ Well, at least he remembers some strange amphibian that the toddler he remembers always dragged around. ]
