30th Decree - Dressed to Impress

[wishmadeinfire]

[The feed comes on, showing two men dressed for going out, one looking distinctly uncomfortable. That one would be Ashura, dressed not in his normal robes but in a suit (far right in the image), of all things. His hair is up in a simple high ponytail and other than a few golden clasps and some rubies, he does not have a large amount of jewelry. His

[maraihi]

Really. One would think you're getting cold feet about dancing.

[wishmadeinfire]

I am not, I just do not feel all that comfortable in this outfit is all.

[maraihi]

What's so bad about it? I made sure we got the right size.

[wishmadeinfire]

You should try wearing this.

[wishmadeinfire]

[He gives the other a look. Sure his robes were sexless, but they were not overly effeminate now were they?]

I think I shall leave such styles to you, Maraich.

[maraihi]

This is a little tighter than what you're wearing. But it looks nice, doesn't it?

[He held out a hand.]

[wishmadeinfire]

[Ashura took the proffered hand, looking him over.]

On you, I admit that color is delightful.

[maraihi]

[Maraich delicately places his hand in his, with a little sashay]

That would make it your color, wouldn't it?

[wishmadeinfire]

[He chuckled.]

Not quite. My family's colors are red, white, black, and gold.

[maraihi]

Oh? You should take all the colors for yourself, considering you're the king.

[wishmadeinfire]

Well, considering my family is the ruling family, they are, in fact, my colors.

[maraihi]

[Suddenly serious.]
Then you can sell them off for profit.

[wishmadeinfire]

Why in the world would I want to do that?

[maraihi]

So you can give me the money.

[wishmadeinfire]

[He rolled his eyes.]

And I have to ask again - why would I do that?
