[ considering her mission, 45 must be busy. zenitsu is more puzzled than upset as he turns back to 9. it's both enlightening and heartening to see this kind of interaction between them, anyway.
9 definitely wouldn't say that 45 has less than 5% kindness in her personality. would she? ]
Do you have something in mind? . . . What did she mean by collar incident?
I got her a Christmas present, and she paraded me around on a leash in response...
What she isn't saying is that the present was a dog collar that she intended me to wear.
It still looked nice, though!
Which is why I am certain your logic processors were malfunctioning then. Anyway, don't you have something to do?
Right-! Here, what do you think of-
[ what 9 ends up picking out for him is a mix of relatively close fitting, but light and elastic tops paired with a looser, more flowing overcoat that disguises the silhouette and offers plenty of pockets to hide things in. and also a hood, because why not. a couple of sets of practical looking but comfortable pants are offered for him to make the final decision between. ]
[ okay, buying 45 a dog collar is kind of weird. no harm done if it looked cute, though, right? the thought's what counts, weird as it is.
but the tops are nice, and the coat is vaguely reminiscent of his haori in how it would drape over him. he appraises the pants before settling on one set. ]
I thought it looked nice... her hair looks a lot lighter than mine, but there's reddish highlights in it, you know? So I thought it'd match that! But, well, her taste is probably...
Oh? If you really wanted to go for another walk with me so badly, all you had to do was ask~ ♪
Nope! You didn't hear me say anything at all, sis! Anyway, if that's what you want, let's go get you all checked out! You'll look great in those, I'm sure!
[ zenitsu probably did not come here to listen to a comedy show of the ump sisters bantering with each other, but regardless of whether or not he notices it 45's been keeping an eye on him and his reactions as they talk.
9's the personable one; 45 is distinctly not. too hesitant, too quiet, too depressing at first-- and then afterwards, apparently too mysterious, too intimidating, absurd joke that it is all things considered. but it does usually put others more at ease when they see her sniping back at the doll that looks so much like her, like this isn't all simply a function of logic.
honestly, with both of the ducklings present, she thinks briefly of the mansion and camp and only half wonders when she stopped managing to convince people she didn't care one way or the other. probably something to do with the fact that she hadn't quite been business as usual there, at first, mixed with the recurring inability to not see her as a person and some sort of insistence on seeing her as a 'good' one. ]

This one looks fine.
[ and because he can't help himself— ]
What about the collar? How did it look?
zenitsu is still not at mcdonalds and this was the entire premise of the thread. oops
