It wasn't every day a lad like Yamichi found himself within a place of relatively unbridled excess; stores around the Satellite usually were either heavily guarded or destitute and looted by gangbangers. And because of the scarcity, normal supplies were just too expensive for many to purchase. Here though? People could go and go freely it seemed; indeed, much of what he was forced to learn in the Satellite would take some time to undo, but thankfully he knew Ling would be there to help him relax.
Giving a slight laugh as she teased about the electronics boutique, he would just say "You don't know the half of it; I'd definitely like to stop there before we leave." However, first came the business of clothes. Indeed, he had maybe a handful of items in that department; some fresh threads would be a welcome change. But where to start? He had no clue; his only wardrobe was always a handful of items, and while they managed to get basic laundry services in the Satellite....Well, it wasn't exactly easy to use when one was part of a group of gangbangers with authority hunting them down.
Following Ling along, he would look over the provided outfit....Yeah, it seemed nice. He liked how it looked in the mirror; and giving the fabric a touch he remarked in how soft it was compared to his clothes. It was definitely an improvement. And the smile on Ling's face just helped cement that he had made the right choice in coming here: This was definitely a needed distraction at minimum, especially given the hellish nightmares they had faced together.
"Gold might be a bit too flashy for me...Yellow definitely works though. But....I'd like your input before I buy anything else. Just so I don't walk out of here looking like a total circus sideshow." Yamichi replied with a hearty chuckle, then beginning to browse the various selections of clothes. Definitely grey jeans were on the menu for him, contrasting with his shocking blonde hair, and with Ling's wonderful aid he managed to acquire several new outfits, along with the necessary undergarments to add to what he had.
The bill came out to be shockingly expensive, even if Yamichi didn't mind paying for it. It was just more money than he was used to spending in a single transaction. Soon enough, though, the pair was walking out of the store with several bags of clothing. "Wow....I don't think I've ever spent that much at once." Yamichi joked, the bags heavy in his hands. He was grateful for the opportunity though; this meant if he did go back, he could have something other to wear.
But then his stomach rumbled; seemed their little shopping spree helped the tech build up an appetite. "I....admit I don't know this mall very well. Where should we go eat you think?" he then asked Ling, very much curious to see the rest of this massive complex.
