[ Jason raises his eyebrows a little, looking at Dick. ]
Everything I need is right here. You know I don't need stuff to make it my dream come true.
[But it's nice to be able to do this anyway, and he knows this part is all Dick- wanting to do what he can to make Jason happy. To give him things. Maybe that's Dick's love language.]
Blue is good too. I actually like colors, despite my very dark gray and black wardrobe.
[He picks up a few of the shirts, holding them up to himself.]
[There's a wide grin on Dick's face. He knows that he never has to do a thing but be with Jason, and honestly that's all he needs back-- this is a something that he can do, and he doesn't do things like this often, not for himself or anyone else. It's simple and maybe it is a part of his love language. He's loves to take care of his partner in every way possible, emotionally, sexually, and physically-- by offering what he has, everything he has.
Laughing softly, he nods.]
I know, this is for the trip, remember. I'm having fun and I want you to think about it as a once in a lifetime opportunity. We can give up all the stuff to the poor later if you decide you want to. Stuff is never required for us, but for the trip it will be nice.
[When the man comes back, Dick hands him several more shirts, some for himself and some for Jason. Then he picks out a ton of jeans and sends the man away, leading Jason over to the swimsuits.] Okay, now for two swimsuits. You need two, so that you can wear one while the other dries. Just in case, like a before and after breakfast or lunch deal.
...Okay. That's a good idea. Once in a lifetime- I'll go all in.
[And so he really tries to, snagging a few more shirts to look at, putting some back that really aren't his style. He grabs mostly black jeans, despite trying to branch out. He does have a couple regular ones in the pile. He's not sure about shorts- though he figures it'll be hot and they'll be wearing those, too.
By the time the guy comes back it feels like they have a lot, but Dick looks satisfied.]
Wow, you've really delved deep into these plans, huh. I would never even think about that.
[He laughs a little, going over to the swimsuits. A lot of them have funky patterns and neon colors. He lifts up a yellow one with pink flamingos on it.]
Damn, these are... something else, huh. Are we gonna wear flamingos on our asses?
[Wandering through the racks of swimwear, Dick has to laugh at the things they come across. The things men won't, or is it will wear in the name of water is ridiculous. Case in point being the flamingo board shorts that Jason holds up.
Laughing, Dick immediately comes across a pair of swimshorts he knows that Jason will laugh his ass off at. At least he thinks he will. If he gets it right away. Left side, then right side. Dick took a second, but then he starts snorting out laughter. ]
Here, these are yours. I mean, they sound exactly like you.
[There's more laughter, and then Dick hits the men's bikini wear and he slips out a thong and shakes his head.] Why. Why would any man put themselves through this unless they were being sexy for someone, not the general public and they knew they were taking it off in under ten minutes. Thongs are not necessary.
[ Yeah, Jason gets it right away and he laughs too, surprised Dick would even show those to him, because of course now he has to get them. ]
Those are definitely coming with me.
[He snags them, an amused look on his face. He won't wear them out and embarrass Dick, but he has to at least pretend he would. The thong ones though???? Not so much.]
I think your ass would look super fucking sweet in them, though. Especially the blue ones. Whole Nightwing vibe.
I figured you had to own them, if not wear them. [There's a pause.] Maybe for me in the bedroom.
[Dick gives a wide grin and then takes those thongs from Jason and holds them out. ]
Only in the bedroom. These would never leave our suite of rooms, at any of the hotels. I don't mind dressing for you, but I'm not going to wear anything out of the hotel room that shows off my ass. That is property of Jason only.
[Looking to the gentleman that comes over, Dick nods and speaks about a few dressier types of outfits, and the styles they are looking for. Then he hands over his card. It's about lunch time anyhow, and they have so much to pack now before they board the plane and get things going on the trip.]
Oh yeah? "Fuck it, let's drink beer" is a real turn on for you, huh?
[Definitely getting them, and wearing them to the bedroom, just for that. Just like he's gonna insist on Dick getting the thong for the bedroom too.]
I want my property to wear those at some point and show off that ass. You're getting those.
[Jason still can't find a decent pair though-- and he needs two of them. He looks around some more while Dick deals with the guy. When Dick's done with him, he pulls a neon yellow pair off the rack.]
No, but you are. I can find something else for you to wear and buy it for you to wear while we are there if you want. I promise you won't find it distasteful.
[Alright, alright, Dick will get those for the bedroom. It's going to drive him insane having a thong up his ass, but then again sometimes his suit did that when he was wearing one of the older designs. Dick is very glad that the fabrics have changed through the years.
Being serious over the swimsuits now, Dick pulls out a couple he can see himself wearing. ]
I think I'll go with this pair and these, which are like in reverse colors. They are colorful, but understated. Let's see if I can find you anything for real.
[Going through the racks, Dick pulls out any that he thinks that jason might like and hands them over for him to look at. pair a, b, c, d. Do you like any of those? There are more where they came from. They're over here in the board shorts section. They have a lot of pretty normal colors, blacks, greens.
Hey, listen- I'm leaving most of this up to you. Whatever you think we should go with, I'm going with.
[But he's pretty pleased, and somewhat amused that Dick is willing to have a thong up his ass for him. It's going to be sexy though, he can already tell.
He gives a nod when Dick holds up the swimsuits he likes, then follows him around to the rest of the board shorts to look at the selections Dick think suits him. He hesitates, then points at the last pair.]
Those. I like those. Maybe I'll get this blue one and a green one? Is that too boring? I feel like I need one with flamingos on it too, just for fucking kicks.
Oh... and sunglasses. I don't have any sunglasses. Gotham doesn't exactly call for 'em.
Sunglasses and we got the flip flops, and we'll grab the sunscreen when we're there, I think. Get you some good shades though. Don't go cheap, because then they won't really keep out the bad rays, and the sun is hot there. [Yes, that's like saying that ice is cold, but it's a fact that UV rays are worse in places like Hawaii and Florida than they are elsewhere. That's why some people really should be careful with their skin no matter the shade.
Dick also sneaks in another pair he finds when Jason isn't looking, for his own kicks. They are going to be amazingly well dressed, or awkwardly so. They'll find out when they get there. Dipping up to the jewelry portion of the store, which also happens to have glasses, colognes, makeup, watches..etc, Dick starts to move around and look at things.
He tells the lady to send a bottle of his cologne along with the rest of their packages back to the apartment-- yes, he's having their packages sent. It's far easier this way. Carrying bags and hangup clothes are for the people who can't afford what they are doing. ]
Alright, so what kind of shades do you want?
[[ooc: If you look below, or click the top link to the vacation thread-- i've added threads for each of the events of their vacation and starters. Don't worry about length, and sorry for typos. It's what I did today. lol. XD But, we can hit the last two if you want, and then go through the other ones at whatever speed we wish. Plus, it'll give you an idea of the vacation and the things they're doing and etc. Some events will be short, others longer. obviously. I thought it might help so that they can eventually banter in threads again.]]
[ He's glad that Dick is grabbing things along the way, cause he wouldn't even know where to begin, and he'd probably be stuck here forever trying to decide. He's getting more comfortable at looking around though, so he does the same when Dick starts looking at the accessories. ]
...Something cool.
[He says with a small smirk- cause hey, he's still really young, and he wants to be stylish. He just kinda forgot about all that stuff for a while. This shopping trip is helping, though. He picks up a few pairs of sunglasses and looks at them, but this pair he puts on his face to try on.]
What do you think?
There are days when I feel productive. :) Glad you like it.
[Standing back for a little bit, Dick watches as Jason finds a little bit of a shopping groove. He figured that the sunglasses might do it for him. They're easier than clothes and a little more personal. They give that vibe that top everything off too. It's like how some people get tattoos, or earrings. There are some people that live by their sunglasses. Maybe it's an odd comparison, but it's something that Dick's noticed about people during all his time spent watching them.
He grins at Jason's choice. Dick had made his not that much earlier. They both seem to fit their personalities very well. ]
I think they fit you well. Keep them on, you'll be happy you did. Blue eyes and the sun don't mix. How about mine, do they suit me? So, I think that's about it. I'll let you pick out your dress outfit online and then we'll get it tailored if we need to. Remember, it's dress for you, not anyone else. I'm also getting us a couple of things to wear to the luau the last night. I promise I won't do you wrong.
[He walks over and kisses Jason on the neck.]
Is there anything that you can think of that you want? I'm buying? Watches, jewelry? Tattoos? Nose piercings?
[Dick laughs]
That was very productive! I love all of it a lot :D
[ Dick is right, it's a lot easier to shop for sunglasses. Jason feels a little more in his zone. He might get that way with shoes too. He still wants a cool pair of boots.
For now though, he shows off his sunglasses, smiling when Dick says they fit him well. He definitely feels better about this now. They're gonna be so fucking stylish. Hottest couple out there. ]
Oh yeah, those are definitely you. Get those and I'll get this pair, then. They're cool. Ooh... maybe these too.
[He picks up a pair of wayfarers and tries those on too. Yeah, he's into the sunglasses for sure.]
Hah yeah, I'd love to fucking see you get a tattoo. I uh... can we check out the shoes? The boots?
[All the glasses are added to a little basket that gets put with the rest of their stuff. Dick thinks they all look great on Jason. He picks out one more pair that have blue highlights along the edges and look pretty sweet on. He's happy enough.
He can't believe that he forgot the boots that Jason wanted. Shoes are easily something that are nice to collect. Dick has his fair share at home. He might pick up another pair of loafers, and some good sandals, maybe one more pair of tennis shoes. There really can't be enough of those in the world. ]
This way to the shoes. [Dick points to the escalator. The shoes are up a floor. ]
What tattoo do you want me to get? Your name on my chest?
[ Loafers, sandals and tennis shoes- how very Dick. Jason's more into his boots and black converse. He's pretty sure he's never worn a pair of flip flops in his life, even when he was in SF. New things all around, it seems.
He follows Dick back to the escalator, letting out a soft laugh at Dick's question. ]
Isn't that like, real white trash? You sure you wouldn't get it as a tramp stamp instead?
[Dick shares a wide grin with Jason and a blustering laugh.]
No way, was gonna get it right above my cock, and have it read, Belong's to Jason Todd. Then the date. Gotta make it real official like. Or Maybe I'd just get a really smooth replica of your mask on my shoulder. No one would know. They'd just think I was a fan.
It's better than the people that get things around their assholes. I've seen them on some of those tattoo shows late at night when I can't sleep.
[He shakes his head in bewilderment at some of the stupid ass things that people do.]
You could if you wanted to. You know I'd never force you to do anything like that. It was a thought. I want a piece of you, a reminder, forever put on me. I don't think it'd be so horrible at all.
What, they're funny shit. I mean, these shows are hilarious. How do you think I got the idea to tattoo something above my junk, because I saw people do it. I think some guy had something to do with sucking and cunts put above his cock, and he got a tattoo redo. I love those shows too, cause you see the trash people have turned into something nice at least.
[He's laughing too, cause it's both funny, and Jason's laughter is incredibly infectious. Leaning over he kisses Jason on the cheek.]
Tattoos are super sexy, and we aren't with the Bat, plus our costumes cover the shoulders, arms, legs. I mean, we have plenty of places that no one would ever see on us. There are places we get our suits ripped more often, try to stay away from that, but the suit's better and better now. I want to be sexy. There's a parlor right next door. We should do it today.
I watch them when I should be working from time to time, when I'm stumped on something. It gets my flow going and then there's the nights when I can't sleep and it's better than pacing. This is the quality crap that's on. I promise, I'll put some on next time we are curled up in bed together.
[Hooking an around around him when they move into the shoes, picking up this pair and that before setting it down again with a wrinkled nose. It's hard to pick out something exactly right.]
What, it's not like I'm getting something weird put on me in the middle of my ass cheek. Why can't I get one today? What's wrong with being spontaneous. I used to do it all the time, still do when I'm fighting. Never know what's gonna happen when you're out there. It's good to be able to switch it up from time to time.
Hell yes. I definitely wanna watch dudes tattooing their dicks before we go to sleep.
[Forgive him, he's very distracted from the shoes at the moment. Dick is talking about the two of them getting tattoos and he adds that to the list of things he didn't think would ever happen.]
No- you know me, I fucking love being spontaneous. I love switching it up. It's just different when it comes to you. A tattoo is a bit commitment.
It could be girls getting a weird looking tramp stamp covered up too. I know that you'd rather see dicks, but it's still funny.
[Teasing Jason, Dick nudges him, laughing. He finds a pair of black Tims that actually look like something Jason might wear and points them out, while he fingers a leather pair of boots across the way. It's really hard not to appreciate a good looking pair of boots in their line of work. ]
I figured that, but you know I've already thought about getting a part of you tattooed on me. I hadn't figured out what I wanted, but you're mine and I'm yours, and I know that's not going to change, ever. It's like the best kind of hickey I can have.
[He looks at the shoes, picking up the one Dick points out, but he's still stuck on the tattoo thing. Dick is definitely swaying him in that direction, even if it's not something he's ever thought about before.]
Okay. But-- I don't know if I wanna get a mask tattoo. It's a really cool idea and I like it, but when it comes to us... it's outside of just masks, you know? I know how sentimental that sounds, but it's something I love about you. About us. You love me for me, even without the masks.
