Who: Wanderer and Heizou
Which: Log
Where: Around the town
What: It's summer, Wanderer is himself, Heizou is a terror, and frankly WANDERER NEEDS NEW CLOTHES GOOD GODS MAN
Warnings: None atm

[It's hot. There's more to the day, yes, but it's hot. That's all Wanderer really cares about, especially since it's so hot his flying kitten is still asleep in his house and not perched on his hat.

Wanderer really, really hates the heat. He hates the cold too, but for some reason the heat is making him cranky. Why couldn't his creator have thought to put in a cooling system of some sort? No, he doesn't want to sweat, but it would be nice to be able to be cool in this gross heat!

He's sitting under a tree by the lake, trying to cool off and debating if he really wants to stick his feet in the lake. It's tempting.]

[Heizou chuckles softly, taking a step forward to give the hem of the shirt a gentle tug downward.]

Of course, of course. We'll find you a larger size. Though I do think you look cute this way! And I'm sure a certain archon would agree~

[He gives Wanderer a playful wink as he turns to go. Larger sized shirt, here we come!]

[threebetrayals]

What does Venti have to do with anything?

[How do you know he's talking about Venti?]

[book2thehead]

[Heizou glances back over at him with a single quirked eyebrow and an amused smirk. Thanks for officially confirming that theory, Wanderer! Even though you really only took it from 99% to the full 100%.]

Hm~ What does Venti have to do with it indeed~ ♡

[threebetrayals]

[. . .

Enjoy the gust of wind knocking you around a bit, Heizou.]

Why would Venti care what I wear?

[book2thehead]

[Oh are we threatening with anemo now? Because Heizou can play that game, too!

Though really he's just countering it so it has no real effect, besides whipping his hair and clothes around a bit.]

Man alive, isn't it obvious? He has your attention, doesn't he? It's only right that you play the game the way he does.

[threebetrayals]

What, you mean by getting drunk and sneaking into my house?

[book2thehead]

[Heizou's face brightens with delight.] He did that?! I suppose that certainly does sound like him!

But no, I suppose that's not quite the way you should return the volley. The way I see it... [He steps closer again, making those little adjustments to Wanderer's outfit with a little smirk.] Wearing something cute every now and then when you're around him will let him know you enjoy his attentions~

Unless- [Headtilt!] You don't even want him to know that?

[threebetrayals]

[Ugh. Ugh. How dare this stupid detective call him out like this? He hates humans.

Wanderer lets Heizou adjust the shirt, sulking a little.]

I don't enjoy the attention. I just...let him do whatever he's going to do, since he'll do it anyway and protesting is a waste of time and energy.

[book2thehead]

[He's still got that knowing smile on his face, Wanderer. This is literally why Heizou has so few friends.]

Mmhmm, and I suppose you allow it while wearing that petulant pout on your face? Does it make your cheeks feel a little hot when he gets into your space?

[threebetrayals]

Pout--I am not "pouting". I'm annoyed.

[book2thehead]

[His smile just grows. How cute.]

You know, we have a word for this behavior in Inazuma. Do you know what it is?

[threebetrayals]

[The iciest of looks.]

If you so much as even think that word in my direction, I will show you that I don't need to be a Fatui or a god to make you suffer.

[So. Yes. Yes he does.]

[book2thehead]

[The look Heizou gives him the various obvious impression that he's absolutely thinking of that word in his direction. Loudly. Tsun tsun tsun tsun...]

It's cute, really~ But I'm sure Venti will appreciate being rewarded for his efforts every now and then. Hence: cute outfit!

[threebetrayals]

[. . .]

Fine. The shirt can stay. I'm changing now.

[Back into the changing room he goes--]

[book2thehead]

[Well now that Heizou doesn't have to go searching for a new hat... He will just park himself right there on the other side of the door.]

Let me know if you need any help in there~ I have quite nimble fingers, you know~ ♡

[threebetrayals]

I didn't ask.

[Back in and into the outfit with the shorts and oversized sweater. When he comes out this time, he is vastly more comfortable and less cranky.]

This one's fine.

[book2thehead]

[He can't help but laugh softly at the way Wanderer snaps at him. No wonder Venti likes him so much. This is fun!

When he comes out again, Heizou gives him a full appraisal, even going around him in a little circle.]

Mmm... Yes, you definitely prefer the simpler styles of clothing. [Not that that's a bad thing. Heizou still approves with a smile.] Comfortable? Not feeling too hot in it?

[threebetrayals]

If I get hot, I can just take the sweater off. This is somehow lighter than my other outfit.

[He approves of this one! Good job, Heizou, you learned not to troll!]

[book2thehead]

[Wow, the shopping trip itself was not about trolling! Rude!]

Oh? Which shirt do you have on underneath?

[threebetrayals]

There was a plain shirt in the changing room when I got there. I assume someone left it, and it's a bit big on me, but it's comfortable.

[book2thehead]

Huh... [Heizou considers that for a second. This isn't stealing. And if it's a plain shirt with no real markers on it then the odds of it finding its way back to its original owner are slim to none. Assuming the owner even misses it. And it's not like there's any malicious intent here. So that's... fine, right?]

...Well, I suppose if no one's tried to come back and claim it, then it's fine.

I'll go ahead and add this pieces to the list, then!

[threebetrayals]

[?]

Claim it? It's from this store. I assumed no one liked it, and left it in the room.

[book2thehead]

[!!]

Oh? Then we'll also just add it to the list!

[Okay so sometimes the ace detective doesn't know everything. And now he's kind of embarrassed. Don't look too closely at him, his cheeks are definitely not turning pink!!]

[threebetrayals]

[Nope he's noticing. And smirking. Payback, brat.]

Are we done here, then?

[book2thehead]

[Rude. Heizou refuses to acknowledge it!!]

Only if you don't want to look around the store for yourself and see if there's anything else you like.
