"Well, that's a wish I can easily grant. You've got one and a half to two wardrobes to replace, so there's no shortage of shopping to do. Need to hit the bathroom before we head out?"

"That would probably be a good idea after all that juice, yeah."

She thinks she remembers seeing a small washroom earlier. It was over... this way?

Yep, just over there by the stairs.

Meanwhile Sable is over here looking up the locations of a few other clothing shops that carry more niche things.

Lillian does her business (the facilities are familiar, thank the graces) and washes her hands, then emerges. 

"Okay," she says. "Let's go."

"Okay!" Off to the entryway to get shoes back on, then to the car. "More electronica, or something else this time?"

"I think I'm in more of a classical mood right now. Something relaxing."

Lillian gets into the car and gets settled.

"Sounds good."

San Francisco always has classical music available on the radio, so she switches to that station, and off they go to the department store.

By the time they get to the store, Lillian is humming cheerfully, because it turns out America has a completely different set of classical composers from Asterion. Except Beethoven. Beethoven seems to be in both worlds, for some reason. 

Lillian descends from the car still humming Beethoven's Fifth to herself, and waits for Sable to lead the way inside. Probably it would be bad for her to be visibly unaccompanied if she's considered to be a minor.

She doesn't have to wait long. Sable locks the car up and leads the way, offering her hand.

Inside, the department store is full of quiet conversation and soft pop music, and fairly well-lit but not harshly-so. Sable finds the department for girls' clothes easily enough, starting in the underwear section. "Okay, we need to start with undies and the like, just to get the basics done before we move on to the more fun stuff. Wanna get measured, or eyeball things and figure it out by trying them on?"

She clicks her LED bracelet back over to pink and smiles. "I think I'd like to try some things on, that's always more reliable. There are probably change rooms around here somewhere, right?" 

"Yep! At least as long as you're buying things off the rack. Tailored clothes, and also bras when you grow a bit more, tend to really need precise measurements and do much better that way."

She glances down at the bracelet for a moment. "Does that indicate which of you is in the metaphorical driver's seat?"

"Mhm! They're standard where I come from."

She stretches, and starts looking around at the aisles. "Okay, underwear."

She can spot boxer briefs easily enough, and tighter panties too, but there doesn't seem to be anything in the third style she's used to seeing with the extra room in front. She will go with boxer briefs for now and remember to ask Sable a bit about that other style when they're not in public. She has a sinking feeling she's not going to like the answer. 

She thinks back, then hazards a guess. "So... Audrey now?"

"You got it!"

She goes on down the aisle and starts looking for tops and skirts in approximately her size. 

"Oh, sweetie, d'you think it might be easier if you work out your sizes for these first, that way we can load a whole stack of everything y'all like into the basket before we head across the department to skirts and the like?"

"Oh! Yeah, that'd make sense." She will grab a couple more sets of boxers then and offer them to Sable to hold.

She sets them in the basket and leads the way to the changing rooms.

Then she will accept underwear and try things on! 

The first size she tries is obviously too large even before she gets it on, but the second size fits. 

She emerges from the change room with the briefs in hand, her original underwear back on. "These ones fit, these are too large."

She nods and puts the too-large ones into the go-back cart the staff have set out. "Okay, now we can grab a whole bunch of those. Next up, bras."

Back to the aisle they go.

She gets some bralettes, since she doesn't have very much in that area right now, checks the fit in the changing room, and moves on to the main event - Skirts and tops! 

She seems to be having some fun shopping at least. 

Oh good! Sable's having fun too, especially getting to comment on how cute all her selections are. The department store has some darker things, and definitely plenty of jewel tones, but there are limits to how goth you can get in a department store, though. If Lily wants more than that, they'll have to hit another store.

But within those limits, the selection is great.

Lily ends up with a sort of corpgoth look - black blouse and black slacks mainly - while Audrey picks out some nice patterned skirts with flowers on them, a few longer and a few shorter. She also makes sure to pick up some t-shirty things with a slight v-neck in soft pastels, and a blouse of her own for when she feels more dressy. 

"This should be enough for all of us," she says with a little smile.

"Oh good. We can hit another store if you want, there are places that have gothier stuff than this department store. More vampire themes, darker clothes, different accessories, that sort of thing."

"It's tempting to, but right now we're still getting used to what this place is like, so sticking to more mainstream fashion is probably good for the moment. Plus I don't want to break your bank."
