Chapter 120 Clothes Shopping
"What about this one? I think this one's ok."
"That colour doesn't suit her though... I think this one is better."
"Ah... But the design is a little bit off... I don't like this part here. It hides her legs"
"What about this?"
"Mmm... This one is good... If only it came in a different colour. Do they have something lighter?"
"Oh, oh! This one! This one!"
"Ahhh! Yes!! That's the one!!"
Ok... So we're supposed to be here to buy clothes for Lea so that she at least has some other normal looking clothes aside from just a t-shirt and pants...
Also... Last I checked, Amber and Lea weren't exactly on especially friendly terms and yet there they were, standing in front of me where I was the one that was being left out while they picked clothes for me.
Err... Hello? We're supposed to be here to get clothes for Lea... So why are you two picking clothes for me now?
Women... I don't even understand them even after I find myself in the body of one...
This kind of happened because Lea asked what kind of clothes I wear so that she could get a better idea on how to coordinate her outfits. Then Amber went ahead and told her that I barely have any clothes and pretty much wore the same thing everyday.
Lea seemed quite surprised by that fact and then she started whispering to Amber who seemed to be quite happy to hear whatever she said and they started looking at clothes together.
At first, I thought they were just looking at clothes for themselves until they started holding up clothes to match them with me did I realise I was the one they were choosing the clothes for.
"Why are you picking out clothes for me?" I asked.
Amber gave me a look, "Because you won't pick any out for yourself, Tera."
I looked down at my own clothes, "What's wrong with what I have?"
Amber huffed, "Tera, you'd wear the same two sets of clothes if I wasn't there to complain about it. You need some other clothes too!"
"We already got some clothes for me back then, didn't we?"
Amber rolled her eyes, "Come on, Tera! A girl can never have enough clothes!"
"They're not practical though. They'd get in the way in a fight."
"Who cares when you can look good!"
"Err... I do?"
"Pfft! As if something like this could stop you!" She cried out, picking up one of the shoes to wave at me.
I looked at the boots she was holding that had four inch heels, "I'm pretty sure I'll sooner trip and break my ankles if I were to run around in that."
Amber then gestured at her own pair of heeled boots, "Look! I'm wearing the same! It's fine!"
"Yeah, I'm more surprised you could do it. But I most definitely can't."
"Oh, you just need to get used to it!"
I don't think it's as simple as that but I am honestly questioning how Amber could jump around and run around in those boots of hers.
I waved my hand, "Anyway... I don't think I need that many clothes."
Before I could stop her, she had picked up her personal terminal and rushed out of my ship.
I'm guessing she was going to find somewhere that sold organic ingredients on the station.
But... Wouldn't it be expensive as hell over here given what kind of place this was?
Oh well...
I looked at Lea who had a concerned look on her face when she saw Amber rushing out of the ship.
"Don't worry, she can handle herself. She's a Gold ranked Merc after all," I assured her.
She turned back to me, "I see... That would explain why you could afford such luxuries."
I shrugged, "Honestly, most of our fortune came from being lucky. I've not even been a Mercenary for that long."
"Ah, then you are her crew mate? But I thought this was your ship, Captain?"
I nodded, "Yes, the ship is mine. I... Umm... I already had the ship when I came over here, if you get what I mean."
"Oh, yes. You did say you are from an alternate Universe. So what is the difference between this one and yours? Surely there must be something that told you this was no longer your universe for you to realise that it was an alternate Universe?"
"Pretty obvious actually... I'm from Earth."
"Ah... The homeworld of you humans. I see how learning that the planet was lost from the charts might have clued you in on that... But perhaps... Have you considered the possibility of time travel?"
I paused, "I... Honestly did not... But I don't believe I did. There's just some other things that don't add up."
I was being vague about it because I don't think that telling her I came into this universe from playing a game would be wise. The alternate universe thing was already pushing it and she accepted that quite easily. I don't want her to think that I was crazy by telling her about the game too.
"Mmm.. I see... Ah, speaking of which, do you mind if I get comfortable? Captain?"
I raised an eyebrow at her, "Eh? Of course not. Aren't you comfortable now?"
"Not really, here I go..."
She then proceeded to strip off her top and bottom before I could even comprehend what she was doing, leaving her completely in the nude.
"Wa... What? Wait! What are you doing?!"
"Eh? Oh... I guess I should have known. In my colony ship, we're all girls so we usually just walk around naked or in our underwear so that we could be closer to the plants, you see."
"Does that even work?"
"Mmm... I'm not too sure, but I found that I did have a deeper connection with the plants when I am in the nude. Does this bother you, Captain?"
I had to tear my eyes away from her naked bosoms, "No... Not at all."
"Fufufu~ Then that's perfect then. Ah! If you would like, I could tell you about my colony ship?"
"I... Ahem... Yes, I would like that."
She giggled, "Very well... Let's see... Where should I start?"
I don't think I would be able to listen to her much with what was bouncing in front of me...
Is this something I just need to get used to now?
Hmm... I actually don't mind.
