[ At least Vanya will have a somewhat responsible person to talk to about it. Who is Five going to ask about how weird he's feeling lately around her? To Klaus? He will never hear the end of it, even if Klaus is the brother less likely to judge anything Five tells him. Luther? Diego? No, Five will rather be skinned alive than talking to his dumb brothers.

That's a worry for another time, though, now he's focused on the issue at hand. That being: people, clothes and violins. Count on her to make things easier and agreeing to go for clothes first, almost as if she's read what's going on in his mind. He smiles back briefly. ]


Hopefully, the clothes won't take me that long. [ Nevermind the fact he needs a whole wardrobe. Someone, please show this old man how to buy stuff online. ] But if we end staying here for hours, then we should eat something. Do you know if that Italian restaurant we went to once is still open? I only remember that it was in the rooftop and that they made some great Focaccia Bread. I bet they make good coffee.

[ That was like one time and 20 years ago but Five still remembers it. It will be miracle if the place is still open but it was a family restaurant, so he has hope. Following her around like a puppy and trusting Vanya's judgment, Five looks at the rows of clothes and finally makes an approving sound at the view. ]

Yes. [ She's got a good eye and knows his taste so he's humming quietly to himself every now and then as he picks up tailored shirts and matching jackets, pants, underwear socks, vest...A few ties because habits die hard. He is making an attempt to dress less conservative now that he has the body of a 30 years old so he is favoring navy suits over boring brown ones. Five also has to fight the urge to spatial jump all around the shop to get things done more quickly.

He spent 45 years scavenging clothes for himself while dressing Dolores in much nicer outfits, as a mannequin she didn't have to worry about the cold or hot weather, and that is also a habit that he hasn't lost. It's the reason why Five moves over the women section and studies the clothes there critically - but never the dresses, he remembers Vanya's disdain for skirts - before choosing a green and blue jacket and showing it to her. ]


This would look very nice on you.
