[So swiftly... He reaches over to Nika then, letting his finger curl beneath his chin to keep his face in place as Baren peeeeers in closer, tilting his head. A truly examining eye.]
If you've known me this long and don't realize I think you're a 9, I think I'm doing something wrong.
[The irritation fades as quickly as it came, just because -
Keep smiling like that and even the blind will think you're pretty, moron.
There's a brief sigh again before Baren tucks a stray lock of hair behind Nika's ear before pulling back.]
It wasn't bad, at least.... how about we do that today, then? I've got some extra clothes I wanted to shove at you anyway now that I don't need them for promo.
[his eyes flicker up to the bubble, and he's touched to read what's there. recently he's been having to be careful with his thinking, but it's fine if he thinks back Not as pretty as your smile. because it's just them.]
Why not? I've got no plans, I can be your doll. Dressing me up as you please.
[when a guy pretty much influences you into being more stylish, you owe it to him. that, and sometimes it's just funny what they come up with.]
No wonder it looked a little neater than I left it.
[look, it's not that he's a messy person. he just has a bigger tolerance for disorder. Nikkari gets up, crossing to the closet, and begins to peek around for anything startlingly out of place.]
[meanwhile baren, who absolutely has no tolerance for disorder....
there's nothing startlingly out of place... but there's definitely a few items that baren thought would suit nikkari. large sweaters for the upcoming cold season. a pair of fake glasses rest on top of the closet now. the frames are sleek, but that's fashion for you. a new coat. a pair of boots. they might not be the exact same size but it shouldn't be an uncomfortable fit if he wears socks? some more tees....
the startlingly bright flamingo pink feathered coat that baren left behind is in the bathroom, thanks]
Only if they're endless declarations of loyalty - or crosswords. Humorous haikus.
[he can pick out what's new, taking it out and making a neat little pile to try things from. except the glasses, those get tossed on fast, Nikkari rearranging his hair so that it falls over them like his face.]
A crossword, but the hints are in funny haiku. Got it.
[he'd really do it, too, which is the kicker. but he's got most of the things out and so he's going to move to try one of the tees. no shame, Baren's already seen his body before.]
[he has and he doesn't really seem to care, going over to the bathroom to... yeah retrieve the coat that he brought over since nika didn't find it yet!!
when he comes back out, he's already half-grinning.]

[though he's smiling from the compliment. so easy to get him smiling more, as he keeps his head still for Baren's inspection.]
As long as the customers at Sunshine think I'm pretty, I think I'm doing ok. But modelling could be fun...at least, you made it look fun.

You know what you still need? Leather pants.

[give him that coat, that's the best coat he's seen all year, he's trying it on immediately after the tee is over his head.]
Where am I going to wear them, just out?
[leather strikes him as a special occasion sort of thing.]

[this is where they differ???? be fashionable and hot wherever you want, nika
but regardless baren's already pulling out his phone - ]
Strike a pose, diva.
