Gambit has posed:
It's a lovely summer evening, and several people from the school all independently decided that it was best spent at the mall. Remy, by virtue of having a licence but also doesn't drive like an 80 year old woman on her way to church got elected to drive, and sighs as he parks the large sadan. "Well den, we at least made it in one peice.

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn is all eager to get in some much needed shopping because she needs some good clothes to wear before school starts up again. And hey, this time she's actually in college! So she has to look super cu---err, smart, right?

She grins as Remy drives them there, only too eager to leap out once they get there. "Yaaay! This is gonna be sooo much fun! Just wish I coulda brought some younger people along with me..You old folks better not slow me down!" Megan makes a face at Remy and Hank as she says that, because she's such a little trouble maker and all that.

Beast has posed:
"It is nice to have arrived safely, my friend," Hank says to Remy as he starts to climb out of the vehicle. "So what's on the agenda this evening, my friends? I'm going to be looking for a new Hawaiian shirt, of course, and perhaps a new sport coat." He looks towards Remy, "Have you need for a new jacket, perhaps? Or do you have enough at the mansion still?" Then a glance towards Megan, "And you, my dear, I'm guessing will be doing a lot more shopping than us guys. We do tend to have simpler needs." He explains further, "By that I mean Remy and myself, not all guys in general."

Gambit has posed:
Remy LeBeau considers for just a moment, "Ah'm pretty sure dat guys in general 'ave simpler needs den Megan." The Cajun offers in a tone of light teasing towards his student and shakes his head. "Actually Ah'm 'ere ta pick up mah bbackup gift foh Riana. 'Aven't decided what it shoul' be yet..."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn giggles, "Ooh, Dr. McCoy, I just Looove your Hawaiian shirts! Maybe you can get on in pink! That'd be super cute!" oh yeah, she's definitely been getting at the coffee again, crazy pixie!

To Remy she just smirks and shrugs. "Hey, not my fault, us girls just wanna have fun!" yeah, she's singing in a singsong voice now to that old Cyndi Lauper song. Yeaah, you just had to get her started.

"Ooh, gonna get a giftie for your sweetie?" she smiles, "Maybe I can help! I just need to get new clothes before I go back to school. I dunno Riana that well but I'm sure I could help you pick out something nice for her?"

Beast has posed:
"You should take her out, give her some of your time. I'm sure that's what she'd prefer over any material gift," Hank says to Remy, offering his friend a pat on the shoulder. "Though a nice bracelet might work out well, too."

Looking to Megan Beast gives and excited smile, "That would be just the ticket! Pink to go with my blue fur. What a wonderful I idea."

Gambit has posed:
Remy LeBeau shakes his head slightly, "Non mon ami, dis is de /backup/ gift. Yah know when she been lookin' at yah expectantly all day, an' yah know yah must 'ave forgotten some important day or anniversery? Yah go grab de back up gift and it's like "Nah, see Ah remembered."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn grins at Hank, "Oooh, really? I can dress you up in PINK?! Hooray! I'm gonna have soooo much fun tonight!" yup, waaaay too much caffeine in this one tonight! Although she totally didn't expect he'd actually LIKE the idea!

To Remy she smirks, tilting her head curiously, "Backup gift, huh? Like, if she doesn't like the first one? Well....I dunno, a bracelet or other piece of jewelry might be nice. Or a pretty dress that you can later take her out on a date in? Or maybe even perfume? What's her thing? Me, I'd go for all the above..And then some!" hey, she likes pretty shiney flashy stylish crazy things!

Beast has posed:
"That's quite clever, Remy. Quite clever, indeed," Hank says to his chum with a smile. "Do you know her size? Perhaps a dress of some sort would be in order, as the young lady suggests. It would demonstrate that you've invested quite a bit of thought into her needs, or at least I would imagine it would."

Looking to Megan the blue man chuckles, "You have wonderful taste, my friend, and I have little of the machismo that would prevent me from wearing pink if I thought it suited me."

Gambit has posed:
Remy LeBeau grins a bit, "'Ey, Ah wear pink inta battle, an' Ah'm jus' oozin' wit' machismo." He offers with a grin as well and smirks. "Ah'm glad yah t'ink so. When mah ex-wife found out dat Ah 'ad it she called it sneaky, under'anded... den she used a bunch of words dat a proper Sout'ern lady shouldn' 'ave said...den she started t'rowing t'ings." He pauses as if considering, "She kept de necklace 'owever."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn smiles as she walks towards the mall and peers around at all the stores. "So then! Where should we go first, a nice big place with lots of colorful clothes, hawaiian shirts and beautiful dresses? We could go to the department store at the other end.." Ugh though that means more walking!

"I'm totally gonna window shop along the way! I need a cute new dress to wear at Andrea's next concert....Ooh I cant wait!" she giggles, wings fluttering excitedly as she peers this way and that..

Beast has posed:
"Battle pink, my friend, is the newest superhero fad," Beast says to Gambit with a wink. "I think it's just potent enough to work!"

Then he looks towards Megan, "You should certainly lead the way. I'm following your fashion advice this evening, after all."

Gambit has posed:
Remy LeBeau chuckles, amused by the young girl's...enthusiasm. He laces his fingers behind his head as he follows along. "Well a dress too big ta be a back up gift. It gotta be somet'ing dat c'n be stashed till needed. Maybe a bottle of perfume? She not really de jewelry type. She's a martial artist an' wouldn' wan' somet'ing someone could grab."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn oooohs, "Maybe I should change my costume to pink! Do ya think it'd be too much? With the hair, and the wings and the dress?" she giggles, " I meaaan, I suppose there IS such a thing as too much of a good thing.."

She smiles though, quite happy that Hank is allowing her to dress him up like a doll. Hooorray!" As she peers in one store, she does see a really colorful pink and white Hawaiian shirt, all covered in flowers and kinda girly looking, but hey, Hank could pull it off, right?

"Heeey Dr. McCoy, how 'bout this one? They have lots of colorful shirts for you there!" to Remy she nods and smiles, "Ahh, a martial artist huh? I guess she's pretty tough, would perfume be too girly for her, even?"

Beast has posed:
"Too much of a good thing is just propaganda," McCoy says to Megan. "Do what makes you happy."

When he gets a look at the Hawaiian shirt he smiles, "Lets give it a try. If it works, it' works. If not, we'll know what not to look for in the future."

"Being dangerous does not make one any less feminine or masculine. I feel as though I'm a dangerous creature and we're about to see if I can pull off pink."

Gambit has posed:
Remy LeBeau nods his agreement to Hank, "She very femine actully, passionately so in fact. De jewelry t'ing is 'bout not given' someone somet'ing ta grab onto. It's instinct. Same way Ah always triple lock mah doors an' windows. When yah know a risk exists bettah den most, yah take extra precautions agienst it."
