◊ 9th Contract | Video

[substrictus]

[ Upon the video feed starting up, it looks like it's somewhere within Espoir, a mass amount of white covering the ground as it always does before it very hesitantly - and rather shakily - raises up to meet the flushed face of a blonde-haired young woman with startling green eyes. From what can be seen, one can note how it looks like she's trying to hold her jacket shut over something but it looks almost /torn/ upon closer inspection... ]

Uh... H-Hi...?

I don't.... suppose someone could help me? I uh... have a bit of a problem...

[ She hesitates briefly, biting her lower lip and clutching the material a bit more desperately than before ]

A-Also... if anyone can tell me anything about these... uh.,. cards people can occasionally find around here..?



[ooc: Yep. Oz has discovered a sexchange card on pure accident and is now somewhere, newly female and with a ripped jacket due to his body suddenly changing to female abruptly. Also, as a better reference, he looks pretty much like the the blonde girl in that pic~]

[HOW COME EVEN OZ GETS TO BE SO MUCH BIGGER THAN HER AS A GIRL?! That not fair... That's not right! Luckily, she gets over it quickly because... Oz just looked so freaking adorable.]

Oz... You're so cuuuute! I-I'll bring you a change of clothes really quick!

[substrictus.livejournal.com]

[ a;lskdjfhg Noeeeeeeel~

Those words are definitely enough to make Oz's cheeks color a deep shade of crimson but still 'she' can offer Noel a smile and nod in appreciation nonetheless ]

I-I... T-Thank you, Noel~

[unsureazure.livejournal.com]

[HNNNG. Noel gives a firm nod as she turns off the video feed to gather some things for Oz to wear. Strangely enough, it doesn't take too long for Noel to be dashing towards 'her' in person, with a large paper bag in tow.

... This may be a day that Oz might regret.]

I got these from Miss Sharon, but I really hadn't found a use for them until now! Here, borrow my coat until we find a place for you to change... [She shrugs it off and offers it to Oz. Her eyes are totally not sparkling. Nope.]

[substrictus.livejournal.com]

[ Moving to stand against a nearby building hadn't been too hard to do while she was waiting, though when Noel arrived shortly after, Oz instantly perked up. Fingers carefully clutched at the ripped material of her jacket, as it was cold if she didn't keep the material covering her.

Though when she mentioned Miss Sharon, Oz just blinked a few times before wordlessly accepting the coat and putting it on before voicing any thoughts, really. ]

Thank you~

I didn't know Miss Sharon had ever been here in Somarium. She probably gave you a really nice dress, right~?

[ Not going to say how seeing that look in Noel's eyes was starting to worry her a bit. It wasn't even the idea of wearing a dress that bothered her as hey... at least this time she was legitly a girl and going to wear one. ]

[unsureazure.livejournal.com]

[The cold was easy to ignore for Noel, thanks to her sudden boost of chivalrous instincts. She gives a nod at Oz's question.]

Mm, she and Mister Break were here before you arrived. Miss Sharon actually gave me... several things to wear...

[What Noel fails to tell Oz is that Sharon had developed a hobby of dressing Noel up in cute dresses and costumes, sometimes against her own will. Noel... kind of understands the feeling now.]

Well, let's go find a dressing room in the shopping district~! I actually know a place that's close to where we are, so...

[Without warning, Noel moves in to pick up and carry Oz in her arms... bridal style, no less!]

... here we go! [8D!!!!]

[substrictus.livejournal.com]

[ That sounded like what Sharon would do while here, yep~

Nodding at her words, Oz had been ready to follow Noel when abruptly she was picked up by the other girl without so much as a warning. Sputtering a bit, Oz's cheeks flushed a deep crimson and for a second she was rendered fairly speechless before her mind caught up with it all. ]

W-What? I... uh...

Y-You didn't need to... I c-could have just followed you...

[unsureazure.livejournal.com]

Well, you should get dressed as quickly as possible with this kind of weather... So I know a shortcut!

[The one thing Noel is quite proud about is not being late for things, no matter how much in a hurry she is. It was pretty useful, since her bosses were so punctual with time. How did someone so airheaded manage to do this? Well, Oz is about to find out.]

Okay, hold on tight!

[She breaks into a dash and---HOLY JESUS DID SHE JUST HOP ONTO THE ROOF OF A PERSON'S HOUSE?!]

[substrictus.livejournal.com]

E-Eh?! R-Really?

B-But...

[ That's all Oz manages to get out before she's being told to 'hold on tight', instinctively doing so with a bit of an undignified squeak as Noel not only started running but jumped atop the roof of someone's house.

Not even minding that her arms are kinda wrapped up and around Noel's neck like some kind of damsel-in-distress so she doesn't feel like she's going to fall. ]

[unsureazure.livejournal.com]

[Noel couldn't help but giggle a bit at Oz's reaction, not minding the little arms clinging to her for dear life. She's done this millions of times, so they'll be fine.]

Eheh, I did say to hold on tight!

[With that, she leaps to a neighboring roof, and another and... until she manages to perch herself on the tall stone wall that separated Espoir Village from Somni. She hops off, and lands perfectly on solid ground. It seems they're behind a few shop buildings, with an alleyway ahead of them. The bustling of shopping district crowds could be seen at the other side.

Satisfied, Noel finally puts Oz down.]

Aaaand once we turn right at the end of the alley, we'll be at the front door of [NAME OF CLOTHING STORE HERE.]~!

[substrictus.livejournal.com]

[ Well. Noel really was more capable of doing things than she'd expected; and quickly, too.

Only when they finally land on solid ground does Oz exhale a breath she hadn't even been aware she'd been holding. She manages to offer a bright smile, expression full of interest now that they weren't jumping around onto buildings. ]

Uwah~! That was actually pretty cool, Noel~

I haven't seen anyone from my world be able to do that~

[unsureazure.livejournal.com]

[Noel blinks with honest surprise at Oz's praise. Eventually, the confused expression on her face fades into a sheepish smile.]

Oh... Really? W-Well, this is actually pretty basic skills for the organization I was enlisted in...

[She extends a hand out to Oz, all ~princely like~. N o p e, she hasn't forgotten about her own ulterior motives.]

Anyway, let's get going!

[substrictus.livejournal.com]

Basic~? You know more advanced stuff then, huh~?

[ Being a girl. Totally something Oz has yet to get used to, Noel's more-than-kind treatment only adding to this. Trying so hard not to blush a lot, she does nod though and accepts Noel's hand gently ]

O-Of course~! It's cold out here and standing out here isn't really helping, is it?
