I actually have a case of writers block. I know where I want it to go, but the specifics of the dialogue is...harder than I thought it would be. If anyone would read it and suggest anything, I'll love you forever

You can find some of my other stuff at FFN under the penname "Powertrash" for those who care.

Title: Shopping
Rating: PG
Summary: Visser One and Visser Three go shopping.
Etc: For the sake of this, Visser One is refered to as "Eva." It takes place some time after Visser but with Visser One remaining on Earth for a while, helping Visser Three work on playing human.



"And remind me what we’re doing again," Visser Three grumbled, clutching an overstuffed shopping bag from J.C. Penny in his right hand.

Eva gritted her teeth, "We are perfecting your human disguise, fool."

"This," the Visser said disdainfully, "is the most barbaric custom I have ever witnessed."

"And that," Eva sneered, "is because you are male.” She glanced around the mall with barely controlled glee. "Come.” And with a toss of her head, she walked into the Banana Republic.

The Visser’s both eyed the store with entirely opposite expressions. “The artificial clothing in this store looks less than satisfactory,” Visser Three said nervously.

“Let this be your first lesson, Visser,” Eva said, “15% off sales are good.”

Ten minutes later, as the Visser waited for the dark-haired woman to come out of the changing room, he still couldn’t see what was so good about them. He jiggled his leg up and down. He glanced at the clock. He imagined torturing the leader of the Andalite bandits. Nothing worked. He was going insane.

“Well, Visser,” Eva said, flinging the door open where she stood in Capri pants and a light pink shirt, “what do you think?”

“About?”

“The outfit, fool!”

“It is…fine.”

Eva sighed and ran her hands over her thighs, “You don’t think it makes me look fat?”

The Visser frowned, “It does make your rump look unpleasantly large.”

“And that,” she said, her eyes narrowing, “is why you will never successfully destroy the Andalite Bandits. You are egregiously stupid.”

“I am afraid, Edriss, that I do not understand this particular human ritual.”

_WRITERS BLOCK!_

...and now I'm just like...uhhhh...
