[There's a slightly disgruntled face on the video feed, mouth forming a full-on pout as she waits impatiently for it to indicate its recording.]

Ah, there! Need, ehh... [She trails off and scrunches her nose, trying to think of the right word. Dammit, she heard it all the time--] Moon--Chroma! Moonlace! For Chroma! [She looks momentarily pleased at having gotten it right before going right back to scowling]

So stupid! Clothes, clothes, clothes! Yell at me all the time to wear, but never give! Got seven things, but have worn them all. Need more!

[Her tank top seems slightly rumbled from being worn most of the day, but otherwise okay. The real question is, what happened to the seven other pairs of clothes she'd worn before?]

So stupid! You humans and your clothing, what is point? [She stamps her foot for added emphasis for her annoyance and then immediately cringes like the motion caused her pain and she takes a seat instead.]

Need chroma, soon. Can kiss or hold hands or [She flaps her hand dismissively] Whatever! Need seven more clothes, at least.

[ after a second he opts to click over to video himself - he's lazing about on his couch, this way he doesn't have to bother typing. sometimes he's lazy, okay ]

Then stop getting caught. Practice makes perfect!

[She perks up when she can see his face] Ah, you are cute! [Just. Bluntly states that. Nbd. And she laughs, speaking cheerfully]

Yes, yes, suppose so. But it is so annoying... Would rather have others take for me, or just buy them for me. Is less work for me!

I am! Thanks for noticing.

[He doesn't have much that resembles a sense of shame, so he has no problem taking the abrupt compliment in stride.]

So you're willing to make some chroma just so someone else will go buy you clothes? Is that the idea?

[he's her kind of people already.]

Yes. Am lazy. [At least she's honest about it.] And do not understand human clothes much anyhow. Is more fun this way.

[Hey, he might like wearing clothes just fine but he can relate to the laziness.]

Tell you what. We get together, we do a little moonlacing, and if it's a good time I'll see what I can do.

Is deal!

[And even if he backs out of the deal and doesn't buy her any clothes, she'll have more than enough chroma to get herself something anyhow.]

Ah. Name? Should know that first, yes?

[It's also entirely possible that "see what I can do" might translate to "provide a distraction while you steal a few more outfits". He's been living inside the confines of the law since day one here, maybe he's looking for a little trouble. Who's to say?]

I always thought that was optional, but if you insist - it's Mercury.
