[Five minutes!!!!! Anyway, he's waiting down outside of Fall Dorm in like. Three minutes. Pacing in a little circle. Wow, almost like someone has absolutely no patience, Caleb couldn't even finish his long rest ....... ]

[katzepaw]

[Wow. Well. He doesn't really have anything to do; he's not exactly going to change into a nice outfit. This is a task date, and also, he doesn't have one. Just coming downstairs, bundled up in his coat and scarf.]

. . . Hello. All right, let's go.

[headmt]

[Molly has given into the weather slightly in that he's layered another long, dark coat under his bright, shiny one and added gloves, a loose scarf. Just something to layer up a little bit so he doesn't fucking die, but he's still refused to cover his tits, they're fine.

With a quick flourish, he sleight of hands a little origami kitty cat, holding it out to him.]

For you.

[Acting as if he hasn't been carrying this in his pocket for like. Two weeks now.]

[katzepaw]

Ah -

[He's a little surprised, and then laughs a little. It's just a small little thing, but the idea of being presented with a cute little gift on a date hits differently than if he had presented it to him any other time.

Taking it, though.]

Thank you. Well, I do not have a gift for you, but I do have an idea.

[headmt]

[Um, cute? He'd half expected this to get an eyeroll, but he is trying to be charming here. For the task? For the task. Clapping his hands together at idea though.]

I love ideas. Idea is as good as a gift. Do share.

[katzepaw]

Well, follow me, please.

[Taking him lightly by the coat sleeve on his upper arm, guiding him across the campus in the direction of the new area.]

[headmt]

[Easily guided, not even objecting to this whole being dragged by the sleeve thing, just jogging along.]

This is exciting. Where we going?

[katzepaw]

Be patient, you will see.

[Leading him to the auditorium, then past it, to the costume emporium.]

Okay, so here is what we will do. We will choose something from here and then we will take it and go do the little pictures with the stickers.

[headmt]

Oh! Excellent idea. And you said you weren't good at this?

[Immediately diving into the racks to start digging? He's very into this idea, grinning already, tail swishing while he considers all his options.]

[katzepaw]

I didn't say that.

[He said he wasn't good at the romantic parts, but ideas he can do. This one is a little silly but obviously up Mollymauk's alley, so it seemed like a good idea?

He picks through a few coats, but is planning to mainly let Molly make the decisions.]

[headmt]

[Well, he saw Luke in a cool leather jacket the other day, so that seems like a fun choice in a hideous style, and some aesthetic shades to match. This is definitely a Sight.]

What are you going with?

[katzepaw]

Uhm. . .

[He's not sure? Poking through some coats that are a little nicer than his, but nothing too exciting, and mostly costumey.]

You help me pick, or you will show me up too much.

[headmt]

[He's digging through, digging through - holding up increasingly bright and loud jackets that are getting worse and worse ... before he pops a pair of sunglasses on him and then takes his own shiny coat and puts it over Caleb's shoulders, popping the collar up on it.]

How's that?

[katzepaw]

This is a very appealing look, but I don't want to steal your coat, friend.

[But showing off the glasses, agreeing with them.]

[headmt]

[He snorts and pats him on the cheek.]

You aren't going to keep it. You're borrowing it for a photo. Come on.

[katzepaw]

Okay, but we will need to get you one of your own for the photo. How about. . .

[Grabbing him his own coat]

[headmt]

[He had his hideous leather jacket but he instantly just layers this kitty cat coat for children over it, doing a little pose.]

Think I'm ready for my photo.

[katzepaw]

Okay, let's go.

[Time to head back into the cold to find the purikura booth in the SUB.]

[headmt]

[Yeah it fucking sucks! The cold sucks! This time though he just links his arm in Caleb's elbow, grinning at him up close.]

Weather better be fuckin' warm next week or I'm writing a complaint.

[katzepaw]

Maybe it will be spring.

[Taking that arm, leading him towards the SUB.]

[headmt]

Maybe, maybe.

[Just humming, thinking about nice weather again. Into the SUB!]

Least from here I know my next move.

[katzepaw]

Your next move?

[Leading him to the purikura booth.]

[headmt]

Sure.

[It's making Caleb buy him a drink before going off to do more stupid shit. Anyway, immediately sliding into the booth, patting the seat next to him.]

You done this before?

[katzepaw]

Uh-huh.

[Sitting next to him, starting to fiddle with the picture taker.]

[headmt]

[Reaching over to adjust his coat on Caleb, fixing the collar and flattening out the front so it's nice and sparkly.]

An expert then! Better show me how.

[Says Molly who has also clearly been doing these.]
