Ignite's Igneous Inscriptions |Art Book #7|

A Christmas Feast |Part 5|

This is kinda a dull chapter, sorry guys

It's just them picking out clothes and shoes (whoops, spoiler)

Anyways

Yeah

Cobra led the two of them to the Wardrobe. It turned out be an expansive walk-in closet with things for all occasions. There were even some Halloween costumes.

A corner of it was dedicated to nice dresses and tuxedos specifically for the Christmas party Sparklea was hosting. It was even labeled "Christmas Party Clothes".

"So uh," Cobra started. "Here's the stuff you can pick out from. I'll give you two a few minutes." And from that he walked out of the closet to wait outside.

"Um, alright." Allison said. "Let's take a look, I guess."

"Perhaps." Hero replied.

They rummaged through the racks of clothes, occasionally finding something that they liked.

Allison found a white dress with silver accents, with little Christmas tree earrings. It didn't come with fitted slots for her wings and tail, nor did it come with shoes.

Hero found a tux that actually fit him, with a red and green tie. The insides of the suit were black with mistletoe berries and leaves scattered on it. He found shoes, but not ones that fit.

"Hmm... is there anywhere we could try these on?" Allison half asked to herself, half to her dad.

"Uh....."

"We have changing rooms. Follow me." Cobra said suddenly, and beckoned them.

"Alright..." Allison hesitated. She waited a few seconds until he was out of earshot. "He's kinda... weird."

"Yeah, he is. He's your-"

"Come along." Cobra came back for them while adjusting his suit and tie.

He led them to another part of the castle that was relatively close to the Wardrobe. There were about 4 rooms, with plenty of space in each one and hooks to hang clothes.

"Here we are." Cobra said.

Allison and Hero started going towards the same stall.

"Oops, you take that one." She said, hesitating.
"No, you take it. I'll choose another one."
"No, you take it."
"No, you. It's fine."
"No, I insist you take it."
"No you."
"Just take it."
"Nah, you take it."
"No, you!" And then she walked into another stall.

"You can't win an argument against women." Cobra whispered to him.

"No kidding." And then Hero walked into the stall they were fighting about.

Hero slipped into his suit pretty easily, and walked out without his shoes on. Allison on the other hand, took a little bit longer.

"You okay in there?"
"Yeah!"
"Alright."

She came out with her original clothes still on. "I realized that this dress doesn't have slots."

"We can go to a tailor, there's one relatively close to the castle, and she does it really fast for really cheap." Cobra jumped in before Hero could respond.

"Uh- um, okay."

"Would you like to go now?"

"Dad?"

"Oh, sure, I guess."

"Alright." Cobra said smoothly.
