The more I think about it, the more I can't help but think you'd look great in some of the clothing from my homeland! I have some spare sets in my wardrobe that we can try on...
[she hums]
But there are some interesting pieces from the costumes, as well. We can mix and match until we find something you like and feel comfortable in.
They might be easier to get used to, but I'm not so sure I could pull it off quite as well as you do. I don't know about the costumes, though. They aren't really my style.
What's the point in that if I have to resort to an elaborate plan for it? That'd be no fun for either of us.
[she laughs, too]
You have long hair, so there's a lot of different types we can try... ah, I might have to look in the costumes for some hair ornaments, though. I didn't come with as many of those as I'd prefer.
[no need for tricks! if they're both in agreement from the start they'd have a better time. anyway.]
That's true, that's true! We can dress ourselves up whenever we'd like, really. [anyway, once they're outside sqx's room, she unlocks it with her phone and holds the door open so meg can come in]
Make yourself comfortable! I'll go pull some things out of my closet so we can see what you'd like to try on.
Well - it's supposed to be... nothing is perfect, though. [a beat] Except for my face! Ahaha.
[her perfect face,,
anyway.]
He'd been banished from the heavens, previously - but he ascended again. He's spent most of his life in the mortal realm, so maybe it's more comfortable for him there.
I hadn't ascended yet, the first time, but I've heard the stories. He first ascended while he was still the crown prince of his kingdom, but not too long after he became a god, his kingdom was facing a crisis. He wanted to go down directly to help, but... gods aren't meant to do that without the permission of the Heavenly Emperor, but he went anyway.
[...]
I think it was good of him to try to help! ...but it went pretty badly, and he was banished as a result.

[ huh. somehow meg hadn't even considered that. ]

[we're just going to pretend hk-47 isn't there right now so he won't shoot at meg for being an intruder.]
You're beautiful, I think you could pull it off. Oh, there are a lot of hairstyles we could try for you, too!
no subject
[ this is a joke, probably. she's laughing? so yes let's go with that. ]
What kinds of hairstyles?
no subject

How bold. But I suppose there's something to be said about confidence.
[ DEFINITELY would not work so easily if sqx were a guy, but that's fine. meg doesn't need to know about that yet. ]
We can always give it another shot some other time, if you find something else you like later. This place does like to change things up on us.

[ once they're in, meg is just going to throw herself on the couch! make herself comfortable, huh? she will, thank you. ]
Take your time. I'll be here.
no subject
she's wearing so many layers right now, and carrying over two more outfits, which also have... a lot of layers...
she indicates the second one.]
This one might suit you well, actually. What do you think?
no subject
Well, there’s still a lot more to it than I’m used to. [ it’s no toga, that’s for sure. ] You really think I can make something like that work?
[ she doesn’t usually wear such… big… garments. ]
no subject
no subject
[ she swings her feet back to the floor and heads over to give it a closer look! ]
Honestly, how do you two put on so many layers every single day? I can’t even be bothered to wear a cloak most days.
no subject
[she smiles and adjusts her hold on the robes so meg can get a better look at the ensemble!]
They're much more comfortable than they look.
no subject
[ greece is a mediterranean environment, what are layers.
...but she’s casually untying her sash anyway. they’ll figure it out. ]
no subject
[it's comfortable! also, she's the god of the winds. if she gets too hot she can summon up a nice, cooling breeze.
they will, in fact, figure it out. the robes have so many layers she'll probably have to help meg into them, but it's fine.]
no subject
[ anyways, the chiton is coming off! and meg picks up one of the layers to get a better look. it is probably not the first layer. ]
Feels nice. But of course you’d have good taste in textiles.
no subject
[she picks it up! it is indeed a softer fabric ... since that's what actually touches the wearer's body.]
no subject
It is soft. I suppose the gods only get the best of the best, right?
no subject
There are a lot of us that would throw a fit if we got anything less. [a beat] But there are some that don't mind, either.
Why, there's one god who left his palace in the heavenly capital to reside in a run-down temple in the mortal realm!
no subject
Why would anyone leave the heavens? Isn't it supposed to be perfect up there, or something?
no subject
[her perfect face,,
anyway.]

no subject
[ there’s wonderboy, she supposes... but everyone has their flaws. that includes sqx, of course, but meg isn’t going to spoil the fun here! ]
Banished, huh? I didn’t realize that could happen with gods. Whatever he’s done must’ve been pretty serious.
no subject
[meg is very good for her ego.
anyway, more seriously - ]
