Getting me some new duds
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Walking through town again is now way better. No attacking ponies, which is wonderful. Some of the townsponies wave again some still look like they're talking shit about me. And the rest wonder why i'm carrying an egg. Sorry, its name is Eggsworth. The real name will come later.
We arrive at Rarity's place with out any trouble. So new clothes will be easy, just a rack to choose from, and then it's done. Right?
Rarity opens the door and Fluttershy and I walk in.
" So, new clothes now right?" Kinda confused. Rarity let's the door close and walks past me.
" Come over here so I can get your measurements." What?
" What do you mean by 'measurements'?" I mean I trust Rarity, but you know?
" Simple, I take the measure you, so the clothes I make fit you perfectly." She says with a smile. Oh, she's going to make custom clothes for me. That's neat.
" Oh, so your completely making new clothes, custom tailored?" I question.
" Yes dear, I thought you knew?" She says confused." Fluttershy, Why don't you make some more tea while I measure him. It'll only take a couple minuets." Fluttershy nods, and walks off. I would ask her to watch Eggsworth, but she already left the room.
Rarity walks to a room. I kinda just stand in place at first until Rarity poked her head out of the room telling me to follow. I walk over to said room and walk inside. The room has a small circular stage and a couple of pony mannequins around. A desk nearby, has tons of designs of clothes mostly ranging around ponies mostly.
" Dear, I am going to need for you to take off any extra clothes." Rarity turns around to looks for something. I take off my jacket hoodie and use it to wrap Eggy so it stays in place. Wearing my T-shirt, and jeans. I barely take anything off. Rarity turns back, and then her face turns to a confused look." I thought you were going to take off your clothes?"
"I did. See?" I say pointing at Eggsworth." Isn't that enough?"
" Well...." She puts on a thinking face. I just kinda wait. I've never been tailored before, Mom and dad said they get me a tailored suit. When i'm mature. I'm not mature..." I guess it would be alright... But the pants..." It looks like she can't find the words to use.
" Rarity. The clothes need to fit, and be kinda loose. Not skin tight, because that would make me really uncomfortable." Seriously, the only reason to have skin tight clothes is... I can't think of one.
"Oh! Of course dear, lets get started." She levitates a tape measure and wraps it around my waist. She then does many other measurements, even things that I wouldn't need measuring, like my head. Is she going to make me hat? I love hats. Future goal in life. Have a different hat for each day in the year. Why got to collage when you can have hats?
" So what's it going to look like?" I ask. I mean, kinda knowing her, she would go to the max filled with intricate designs. And I kinda don't want that.
" You know what they say, 'the customer is always right' So what would you want it to look like?" She asks back. She does have a point.
" Okay then... I want a shirt like this." I move my hands to gesture to the shirt i'm wearing." And I want five of them in grey." Grey is literally one of my favorite colors. I have so many grey shirts back home that I sometimes get some of my sisters grey shirts in my pile cause my parents just think that all the grey is mine. In a way they're not wrong. Rarity almost gags at the thought. " You can also make more of the same shirt with what ever color you think would match. If you want," Her face get slightly happier at that. I like some color.
" For pants. I want three pairs like this." I pinch the jeans so she can see them in slightly more detail." Same color as well. No change that's it." She kinda goes all wide eyes and stares at me. I'm gonna need boxers aren't I." By any chance, co you know what underwear is?" She snaps out of it.
" Oh, yes I do know what you mean by that. Will you be needing them as well?" She says with a very somewhat noticeable blush.
" Yeah, can you guess what color?" I joke. Why would anyone care about what color they are. Except girls, Girls always care for some reason.
"Please don't tell me grey darling." I shook my head. Her face lightened at the notion for that.
" Just make them any color. So is that all?"
" Yes dear, Why don't you go down and have a chat over some tea with Fluttershy. I'll be down soon." I get off the stage thing and walk over to Eggsworth. Putting the jacket back on I walk down towards Fluttershy.
As I see Fluttershy, she seems to be all in her lonesome just drinking some tea. Every now and then she would look out a nearby window, but then back to her cup of tea. I guess now is the best time to join her. Otherwise if anyone saw me as it is I would look like a stalker. That's not cool.
" Fluttershy" I say as I walk up to her. She lets out a squeak in surprise, as she turns towards me." Would you pour me some tea please?" I ask. She nods, then pours me some tea as I sit down across from her. As I got comfortable she slid the tea cup to me. " Thank you." I say taking the tea cup in hand I sip it.
Blehg, my god that's bitter, way more bitter than the noon's tea. Apparently the taste showed up on my face, as Fluttershy's face is scared from my reaction.
" I-is something wrong with it Jon?" She asks fearfully, Should I lie? Nah, if I lie she could tell. You can't get away from this after making a face like that.
" I dislike bitterness." I say as I put the tea cup back on the saucer.
" Is there anything else you dislike? If you don't mind."
" Anything else I dislike? Fetch quests, dislike those things to hell." I don't think she would know what one is but might as well tell.
" What's that?" She is now speaking with a tone of curiosity.
" In a video game sometimes someone would give you something and then you would have to give it to another person. It's not bad but it's a waste of time. Sometimes." I mean some fetch quests are okay... Okay none are. "Is there anything else you would like to ask?" I'm guessing more dislikes, or likes.
" What's a video game?" I didn't expect that. Rarity walks in before I could answer. good thing too, because I don't have an answer for her.
"I hope i'm not interrupting am I?" Rarity says as she walks closer towards us.
" No you didn't interrupt, I was just chatting about some of the things I like to Fluttershy. That's all."
" Your like, and dislikes?" I hope she doesn't question me on this. " Now I am quite curious, what are your likes and dislikes?" I know what I like and I know what I dislike, but when you spring a question like this up, it's like at school when they give you the question 'think of three words to describe yourself.'.
"*Sigh* Umm, what are we going to do now Rarity? You just got my measurements, are the clothes done already?" I half joke. She's a unicorn, I would totally believe her if she said she did, but didn't have anything.
" Hmm, well Not yet dear." She says finishing with a sigh. I think she notices the subject change." We still have some time before dinner. So we could stay here, and you two can help me make clothes. Or somepony else could suggest something." Rarity finishes.
" Well... You need to make me clothes right?" Rarity nods to confirm." And were going to Fluttershy's for dinner, right?" They both nod." Well, you might have to prepare some stuff for the dinner right?" Fluttershy nods. " You might have to prepare special stuff, if you know what I mean." I smile a wide grin at Fluttershy, hoping she would get the message. It took a second, but I think she got the message, if her eyes widening to twice their usual size is anything.
" I-is there anything you would like in particular Jon?" Fluttershy asks me.
" Eggs." Fluttershy glances down at Eggsworth and back to me. I hug Eggy slightly tighter." But uh, just do something good with them will you, make it a surprise." I say finishing with one arm supporting Eggy, and the other doing jazz hands. More like jazz hand though.
" I see, i'm going to agree with Jon then." Fluttershy states." I am going to go buy some ingredients for dinner tonight then.
" Ah, I see then. Jon?" Rarity directs towards me." Will you stay here?" I might as well.
" Sure, I don't like going outside without someone."
"I will need you to see if the clothes I make for you are right." She has a point. Fluttershy said her goodbyes to both of us and left to do her fetch quest. " Now come with me Jon." I follow Rarity upstairs and into her room. She then tells me to sit on her bed and wait. While I hold Eggy I start to wonder what it will be. Rarity soon comes back with three fabrics in her grasp of magics.
"Now what do you think of these fabrics?" She floated all of them in front of me. I felt each one and one was rough one was soft but still rough and the last one was smooth like silk. I have a dislike for silk. It's too freakin smooth.
" This one." I say grabbing the fabric." I'd like for you to use this one for shirts and maybe a jacket." She nodded to confirm, but before she could start, I continued." So can you use this one for pants?" She nodded, and walked away to do her work. Which was accross the room. Bet you a dollar small talk is going to happen.
"So Jon. Tell me about yourself." She says as she prepares to sew the, I assume shirt
"I thought I aleady did?" I did didn't I?
"Yes you did, but I want to know more about my friend." She finnishes with a smile. Oh, we're friends I guess.
" Oh, sure. But I'm not sure what to say other than what I have already said." I did say a lot, I think...
"Why don't you tell me about your world then." She looks like she's already done with the shirt but I not really sure.
" We have buildings and smog." That's basically the tip.
" Now what do you mean by buildings dear. Please clarify." She said as she pauses her work.
" lots.. Like towers and stuff." Not really sure what to do here.
" I see... Well I'm done with this shirt. Please try it on." She lifted the shirt with her magic and towards me.
I grabbed the shirt. It's a simple shirt, a light gray overall making it a plain color. I put it on over my other shirt I'm wearing to see if it fits. I stretch a little for the feel of the shirt.
"What do you think?" She asks with a hopeful little smile.
"Honestly..." I stretch the word out. And at that her face turned into a slight frown." I dislike it-"
" Well? What's wrong with it? I went exactly to the number on the measurements, and it's ye same design with your shirt? How could you not like it?" She interrupted me. Darude. She
kept firing off reasons that were plausible to the situation but not. I guess should interrupt her before she has a breakdown or something.
"Yes, you should interrupt her." Iris answer.
"Rarity." She didn't listen." Rarity?" Nope. "Rarity!" Now she's walking around and speaking ignoring me completely.
" It's not working, what do?" I ask the best entity in the world.
" Say something unexpected, it might work." Iris suggested.
" I have a date." She snaps her head towards me faster then my friend talking about Doctor who.
"What?" She says quietly. With a face of confusion.
"Kidding." Her face turns from confusion to slight anger." Your own fault, you kept talking. Anyways, the real reason was cause the body isn't long enough to my liking, the sleeves are too tight, same with the torso. That's it." Her face was now confusion once again.
" Is that really what you think, not even a thing on the design?" She ask kinda questioningly and somewhat disbelieved.
" Na, it's like exactly the same as mine. I like that alot. But yeah that's it, I just like my shirts a little loose, thats all." I simply finish.
After some time she made another shirt for me to wear. While she made it we made some small talk. The topic varied to multiple things but then it came down to Eggsworth.
" So, Jon, What do you think is in the egg."
"Something I want."
"I see... And what do you think is this something?"
"A Pokemon. Probably." That's what it should be not some weird egg thing. Chao's are weird (Refer to Sonic if you don't know)
" And what is this 'Pokemon' your talking about."
" Well it depends there are a lot of them." And I know every single one, by picture of course.
"Well, what do you mean by 'a lot'?"
"Like a little under 720 of them, something around that." She stopped and looked at me.
" Do you know which one it is?" She said resuming her work.
" No, it could be bad, or really good. Mostly good."
" And what can they do? Surely those 720 have something differnt about them."
" Yeah, they can breath fire." First thing that came to mind! She looked at me wide eyed. She recomposed herself before asking me about it.
"And this one can?"
"Maybe, or it can throw rocks." She winced slighttly at that."Or spray lots and lots of water." She looked surpried at that.
She asked a little bit more about the fire and stuff. While we talked she magicked a shirt over to me while we talked. Then the conversation went from the types, ot what I want, then to agree that its totally my fault if their is property damage on her part. I explained that it's like a pet, exect that it has 'magic'. I guess. Pokemon anatomy is weird. I put on the shirt content with the work she did. I took it off and gave it back to her. She looks happy at the fact that i'm content with it.
"And what if it isn't a 'Pokemon'?" She asked, finishing up.
" It could be a dragon lizard thing." She raised an eyebrow at that. Yoshi's are awesome.
" I see." She looked at the clock and then outside at the sun, it's setting. the sky colors are weird." The time for dinner is soon, we should prepare to head for Fluttershy's" I looked at the clock, it looked like it was around 4:55. I guess it's time for dinner. I shrug my shoulders. and go along with her. She walked out and I followed behind, after puting on my jacket and grabbing Eggsworth of course.
The walk over to Fluttershy's house is quite far and it's quite the scene after seeing the sun set. Small talk was made as Rarity and I walked, this time I asked more about Rarity herself. She's quite the pony, not only a seamstress, but able to make friends in high places. She does seem like that type of person, more like pony.
I wonder what will happen at dinner...
