Mon Sept 8th - Skintight Suits and Army Slacks

Though many students might prefer going to London, Maldon provides closer amenities for those without a car or unwilling to pay for a cab. Several pubs are available, though the Rose and Crown is notable for having been where Excalibur spent a good deal of their downtime. Also of note is the Plume Library, home to many rare books.

"You. You're like that, all the time. If your shirt doesn't fit, you have to change the shirt. That makes sense!"

"Alrighty." she says, leading their little group to the nearest men's clothing store. She draws a couple stares from other customers but she ignores them, too excited to pick out clothes for Will to try on that she puts into a growing pile of outfits. Once she feels she's gathered enough to get him started she points him at the dressing rooms. "Just go in there, put on this and come back out so we can take a look." she says, handing him a stack of clothes.

As Nailah picked out things, Will, too, was going through the racks, adding things and smiling, nodding. "Nice to meet you, oh! you're looking quite sharp today. I like your buttons!" he was saying, almost under his breath.

He grew a third arm to add Nailah's things to his pile, and stepped into the dressing room that Nailah indicated.

And more funny ideas, apparently, included the idea of what qualified as decent fashion.

For, as Will came out of the dressing room for the first time, he had picked rather interesting set of garment.

The shirt was a hawaiian one. Not the most garish one in the history of mankind or anything, but a pretty bright, eye-catching garment, for sure.

The skirt was a sheer black pencil skirt, and Will had shifted his legs so that it fit well on him. Not bad looking, but, you know. Didn't go with the shirt, or his general, overall maleness at this point in time.

He stood there, proud of himself.

She only ever wears black.

"It seemed nice!" Will said. "Hanging there, all alone."
"And yeah, like I said--I changed to fit into it better. I bet that's why no one grabbed it until now--they wouldn't fit right."

"Sometimes he's a chair, Nailah. I'm not sure we're going to get him on what clothes are supposed to be for boys."

"...let's try this. What kind of image do you want to project here, Will?"

"Do you want to... strike fear into the hearts of a superstitious criminal element?"

She gestures to Onyx.

Thankful for the distraction, Sam switches tracks.

"If he wants to look like a plainclothes superhero, maybe we could dress him up like Clark Kent."
