Eula x Reader - Disgraced Yet Defiant

Chapter 34: Chioriya Boutique

* EULA'S POV *

Amber: "Well, it looks like this is the place then: Chioriya Boutique!"

Eira: "This place looks... really premium. Are you sure we should be here? That I should be here?"

Eula: "Please, how many times must we reassure you that you have no reason to be anxious of this?! Not only am I a member of the esteemed Lawrence Clan, and thus would it be expected for someone of such renown to be shopping at such an establishment; but also... you were given funds by that Arlecchino woman specifically for such an outing. I might not like the woman, but I see no reason not to take advantage of her charity to treat yourself to some fine clothes."

Amber: "Exactly! So come on, let's go in already! Let's find something that makes you look all refined and classy!"

Fortunately Eira wasn't left with much opportunity to argue or resist this. This being because Amber had looped her arm around Eira's, and was now pulling her towards the Boutique that the Harbinger had recommended for us to visit. It did indeed look to be quite the fine establishment, one that would most definitely stock some rather luxurious garments.

And whilst that dastard Knave might have given quite the sum of Mora to Eira, I fear it won't be enough for items from such an establishment, especially if Eira finally lets loose a little bit... Heh, I suppose I'll just have to cover the difference then, and then I'll be able to maintain my noble appearance amongst my compatriots!

Amber: "Come on Eula! Keep up!"

Eula: "Please, Amber, behave yourself. We're guests in a foreign nation, whilst we are here we are representing both Mondstadt and the Knights of Favonius. So, if you would please—"

Amber: "Ugh, you've already given that lecture three times since we arrived here! We get it, but you've got to meet us halfway too! Think of this like a holiday, have some fun and live a little! I'm sure Y/N would probably like an opportunity to enjoy some time alone with you, exploring this nation together. Hmmm~!"

Eula: "o–Oh! h–Hush you...! Just come along then, let's see what this Chioriya Boutique has to offer us, shall we...?"

That smug smile on the Outrider's face... it is infuriating how effective Amber's teasing has become since her discovering the relationship I share with Y/N behind closed doors. And I suppose she has a point; even though myself and Y/N have yet to actually declare what we are to each other in any official medium, I do think I might like to witness the unique sights of Fontaine alongside Y/N... just the two of us... it sounds nice.

Whilst I allowed these pleasant thoughts to continue to propagate internally in the privacy of my mind, I accompanied the entrapped ex-Fatui woman who's arm was still locked up tight by Amber as she practically skipped along inside the Boutique.

The Boutique itself was nice enough, I suppose. It was far more fantastical than the establishments one might find in Mondstadt, but that seems to be as it is with most things here in Fontaine. It is a rather... flashy nation, with a focus on flair and fashion that seems to be shared by most all denizens of such a land. Perhaps that is inspired by the Hydro Archon's personality and habits? I have yet to see her for myself, but from what I've heard she is quite the... enigmatic personality.

* Y/N'S POV *

Furina: "Oh, hahaha! Oh my! You are quite the character aren't you? Hehe, really now! I must say, you are a much more enjoyable attendant to have accompany me for a tea party than my last guest! And you even brought some more of the exclusive cakes that they used too!"
