Chapter warnings: Mild themes

"I don't even know where to start." Y/N groaned, looking out across the mid-tier outlet mall, accompanying men gathered curiously around the map.

"Why don't we get something to eat?" Jake suggested excitedly, but Sunghoon protested, arguing,

"No! We came here to find clothes!"

"You're always so obsessed with how you look." Jake complained. "We never get to try human stuff, Jungwon keeps us up in heaven like, 90% of the time!"

"Could both of you stop it?" Sunoo rolled his eyes.

"Let's just all calm down." Jay slid in, trying to break up the bickering. "There's plenty of time to do everything that everyone wants. Plus, we can always split up."

"Sounds reasonable," Sunghoon immediately took him up on this idea, "I want to look at suits."

"How many freaking suits do you own, man?" Jake asked, "We're supposed to be finding clothes that help us blend in."

"We're gonna need Y/N's help for that, so how about Sunghoon, you go look at the fancy stuff for a little bit, Jake, you go find whatever food you're interested in, and she can help Sunoo and I first." Jay offered. "Then, we can switch off."

"That's not fair, why do you get to hang out with Y/N first?" Jake's eyes narrowed suspiciously.

"Do you want your snacks or not?" Sighing in defeat, Jake crossed his arm, marching off in a tantrum-like manner.

"Fine, but not because you told me to." Sunghoon was already long gone, leaving as soon as he'd gotten the social permission to abandon the group. Turning to Y/N, Jay smiled.

"Finally, that's done with. So, lead the way!"

"It's not that simple," she laughed. "I want to find something that suits you, you know?"

"Actually, we don't want suits." Sunoo deadpanned. The other two gave him a little laugh, and then she looked over them inquisitively.

"Okay, Jay, I think you'd do better in something more of a fashionable, I-don't-care, casual type of thing, and Sunoo, I want to do something more cute for you."

"Aww, what?" Sunoo whined as Jay laughed. "Just because I'm young doesn't mean I have to be cute!"

"It's not because of that, I just think it'll suit you!" She argued. "Just try it, and if you don't like it, we'll find you something else."

"Fine..." He grumbled, walking behind her and Jay as she led them to a nearby department store.

Once they'd entered and migrated to the men's section, she immediately began pulling items off the rack. Some were more promising than others, but she'd never had infinite money to shop with before, so she was more than excited to help them find outfits. Maybe they'd even let her pick out some pieces for herself. When they got to be too much to carry, she started handing off piles to Jay and Sunoo, who were no doubt making 'she's crazy' faces behind her back.

She would probably never be satisfied with the amount of clothes she could carry, so finally as they were both struggling to see over their piles, she delicately directed them to fitting rooms. Waiting outside, she called directions for them over the door.

"Jay, I want you to do the black pants with the button down short sleeve first! Sunoo, you do the denim shirt with the blue sweater over it."

"Which button down?? There's like four!" Jay called.
