Stars and Sparks Shopping Spree

(Potentially canon later)
It had been some time now since River first met some new
friends, one being her good and rather close friend Fia, as
unlikely as it seemed since the two were basically opposite's in
personality, they still somehow managed to become great friends
regardless and now they had planned to go shopping for the first
time together! River was beyond excited and nervous at the same
time, she loved spending time with her ever bubbly friend, but
going out always made her anxious, and her casual wear was
always the same thing... A fullbody covering dark cloak. Maybe
this would give her a chance to shake things up a little though?
Even if it was only ever worn in front of Zarc and close
friends, at least it was something new! And she was sure she
could help Fia pick out some fun new things and vice versa, they
were both getting things to wear today afterall, she wondered
what they'd find!
River did also worry though at what Fia might think once she saw
her without her hood on, as she knew that, that was bound to
happen today.. But she trusted her friend, and Fia deserved to
know what her friend looked like too. Pushing the thought aside
for now, River would check her phone and let Fia know she was
ready to go when she was, already swaying gently from her
lightly rocking boat along the riverways in her casual cloak.
They had planned to meet here first before then deciding to head
to whichever clothes store they decided to go to first. While
waiting for her friend to arrive, River pondered which would be
a good one to visit first, but the one she knew best was
Zarc's.. It was still an idea, but maybe Fia had a better idea
of the other stores too!

With a zip, crackle and a distant boom it was hard to not notice
just who was making her way over to where River Person was. Soon
enough an eruption of sparklers of varying tones of pinks,
oranges and whites sprung from around the corner; tailing an
energetic, flaming monster like a trailing veil of glimmering
flames. Within moments the elemental skidded to a halt near the
awaiting boat; even lowering the volumes of the booms of her
fireworks by making them much smaller until the booms were just
idle crackles which blended in with the ambience around her. She
wanted to avoid startling River Person if she could help it
after all!
Upon stopping she stood tall with her hands above her in the air
– her phone in one hand - and beamed a wonderful smile,
“IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII’M HEEEERRREEEEEE~ I hope you weren’t waiting
too long! I kinda just woke up extra early today to make sure I
am well and prepared for today! I mean, how couldn’t I? I’m just
so, so, so excited to spend the day with you River!” she
proclaimed cheerfully.
The flaming pink monster was wearing an oversized white T-shirt,
beige short-shorts and a pair of runners today. She also
couldn’t help but spare a mildly nervous glance towards the
water at first, however, Fia did trust River’s talents and skill
when travelling on the water so she needn’t worry for long.
Eventually Phoenix stepped onto the boat with a little more care
than she often needed to when on land, but her jovial demeanour
didn’t falter either, “So, got any ideas where to go to first?
Ember’s recommended a few places but I’d like to know what you
had in mind first~”

A bright smile would spread across the galaxy monster's face
when she heard that distant boom, which was followed by other
eruptions, crackles and colours. While she preferred to not
really draw any attention near her personally, River couldn't
help but to smile at Fia's sparks as she approached. Giving a
thankful nod to the other monster as she even lowered the volume
of her fireworks after coming closer- This time, River wouldn't
be jumping at being startled by Fia's dazzling display!
When Fia spoke up, she might've noticed a soft purple glow
coming from underneath River's hood as the monster smiled bright
enough to emit the glow, "I wasn't waiting too long, not to
worry!" She'd reply, "I'm excited too! I just got here myself
actually, I was getting ready too!" She held a hand to her mouth
for a moment, as she knew it probably didn't seem like there was
much she had to do to get ready considering she seemed to just
throw a cloak on. "I promise I do actually have an outfit on
underneath, I'll show you soon" She'd tug a little shyly on her
hood but she was ready to show her friend who she really was
today.
Catching Fia's nervous glance at the water, River would hold a
hand out to her so that Fia could take it if she needed help to
get onto the boat, casting her friend a reassuring smile, "Don't
worry, I won't let us tip" She promised, letting Fia hop onto
the boat, supporting her if Fia allowed her to. "I made sure we
got Ridley for the ride today, he'll make sure we don't tip and
that we get to where we want swiftly!" She smiled as she lent
down and rubbed a hand gently against the 'head' of the boat,
which if Fia looked close enough, would currently have the head
of a dog!
"You look lovely by the way, you must have a knack for picking
out lovely outfits!" She'd smile again, standing back up, before
then addressing the thought of where they could go first, "Well,
Zarc's clothing store is rather lovely, but I think I may be a
bit biased there~ Plus.. I asked the staff if I could be
messaged for when he's not there at some point today, so I can
pick up something special that he doesn't know about yet-" She'd
give off a rather mischievous giggle, "So we could drop by there
later today, as for now though!" She'd put a hand to her chin in
thought for a moment, "Want to work our way down? Start with the
bigger shops first? Like that one in the Capital, I forget it's
name I don't usually go there, you know.." She'd shyly tug her
hood again before smiling. As odd as it was to suggest such a
place first, she was trying her best to break out of her shell
at least a little bit today, this was one way to achieve such!
Along with eventually removing her cloak, which she had a fair
idea of when she'd do as well "I'm happy to start wherever
though, what are some of the places Ember recommended? I bet she
knows all of the nice ones~"

That endearing glow which crept out from that hood was but
another reason for Fia to keep smiling. There was something
about different lights that the firecracker found alluring -
perhaps it was something she felt safe or akin to - but it also
added an air of mystery to the River Guide. It was exciting
really, for Fia, as it was a gentle reminder that there are just
so many layers and things to learn about every monster. What
could be more wonderful than celebrating everyone's uniqueness?
A light sigh of relief escaped from Fia, "Oh good, I'm glad!"
she replied before blinking with some surprise , "Oooooh? Well
I'm excited to see what else you're wearing then! You already
rock that cloak as it is ehehehe!"
As she boarded the board she didn't hesitate to take River's
hand and the support she had offered; albeit Fia probably held
onto it a little more firmer than she would like to admit. It
wasn't anywhere near enough to hurt River Person's hand, it was
just a reflection of a sense of unease that the flammable
monster kept hidden beneath the surface. However, River's smile
and reassurance did a lot to make Fia more comfortable on the
water even though she kept smiling, "I don't think there would
be anyone I'd trust more on a boat ride, River, thank you. That
and Ridley is really cute! I love its design!"
While she did feel assured enough to let go of River's hand
shortly after, she couldn't help but still leave a right hand to
grasp onto whatever part of the boat she could reach from where
she stood as way to feel more grounded whilst the subtle
movements of the water beneath the wooden
The pink flame then looked down at her casual attire and
abscentmindedly held onto the hem of her oversized shirt,
"Really? It was just something I threw on but thank you! If I'm
honest I don't know a lot about fashion - which I think would
make today more interesting? Ehehehe!" Fia then leaned in
slightly and lowered her voice to a hushed tone, "Don't tell
anyone this, but if you ever see me wearing something super
nice, it probably belongs to my sister; Gloria. I don't think
she minds too much though, since she hardly leaves the attic as
it is!"
A ripple of giggles reverberated from Fia shortly after and the
comment about visiting Zarc's shop behind his back didn't help
things much either. She smirked slightly, "You say it like being
bias is a bad thing!" Fia mildly teased, "Nah, for real though
Zarc has a great eye for detail too, so I can see why you like
some of the designer clothing he sells. Among other reasons
too~"
She then winked before her expression grew more thoughtful,
"I'll be happy to go where ever really... hmmm.... well Ember
has mentioned one of the stores in the Capital has the latest
fashion trends at the moment. I think it's called Bisou
Boutique? There are lots of shops nearby too so I'm sure we
could probably even find ones we weren't expecting too!"
