Teachers go to the Mall?

[Yamanaka Ino]

Ino smiled as she sat at the desk. This was her first day of work at the mall. The Fashion Shop had always been her favorite store and she loved the fact that working there meant a worker's discount on the clothes and other items. She waited patiently for customers. Her job was to work the register and to help customers that needed help.

She looked at the desk. There was a small vase of flowers that she brought in sitting in a Yamanaka Flower Shop vase. There were also pictures of cats, dogs, and other animals of the staff. She couldn't wait to bring in her picture of Midori, her dog, to add to the collection. The desk was surrounded with pink, fuzzy garland with sparkles surrounding it. She just glanced in awe of the totally awesome desk. She wished that the desk from the flower shop was this awesome. That might have helped her to stay awake on boring days.

She neatly stacked a pile of fashion magazines on the back rack. She then hung up a turtleneck that had fallen off it's hanger. She said out loud in the empty store, "This is exactly what all the emploies should do on their time in an empty store! Make it great."

Then, her natural unwillingness for labor took over. She slumped back into the chair at her desk. She began filing her nails with a rhinestone-encrusted, pink nail file.

[Yuuhi Kurenai]

Kurenai walked into the store and looked around. She went over to a rack of red clothes. She picked out a short red dress with dark red hemming. She walked over to the cash register,put the red dress down and took out her wallet. She noticed Ino sitting at the desk.
"Ino, what a surprise seeing you here." she said with a smile.
She never would of guessed Ino would acually be working.
Kurenai guessed that Ino was short on money and waited for Ino to check out the dress.

[Yamanaka Ino]

Ino blinked. She thought to herself *Teachers come to the mall?* she then bowed her head and said reasonably "Ohio Kurenai-sensei." It was nine o'clock. She looked at the dress. She winced a bit. *Now I KNOW she's Kurenai... that dress... it makes me want to puke...* she grabbed the dress and studied it.

The red was a good idea but the dress' features were horrid. It poofed out in the middle to make the wearer look like a fat piece of lard. It also had poofey sleeves that looked fit for a joker. Plus, red on red was never a good thing.

She forced out a smile to Kurenai-sensei. She then said "Not to be rude, sensei, but this dress is really out of style. Would you like me, a junior fashion expert, to help you find something more stylish and yet still age appropriate?" she smiled weakly hoping for her to say yes.

[Yuuhi Kurenai]

Kurenai looked at the dress one more time. "I guess its a little out of style...." *Yep the same old Ino, a fashion queen* she thought. Kurenai wondered what was wrong with the dress it was quite beautiful - or so she thought.
She watched Ino look around the store. Kurenai then waited for Ino to take over.

[Yamanaka Ino]

(((OOC- your posts are really short and need to be more like Kurenai. Other than that, decent ^^)))

Ino stood in front of her desk. She took the dress and hung it up on an over-seeing rack. She took a pointer from her desk which she used.

She pointed at the sleeves "We are not trying to buy dresses for a clown party, are we?"she asked her sensei. "If not, then what's with the poofey sleeves?"
She then pointed to the middle of the dress and criticized, "If you look for dresses with a middle like this, you will end up looking kind of fat. We don't want that, now do we?"
She then traced the dark red embroidering, "Ok. There are so many things wrong with this its not even funny. Firstly, the pattern does nothing for the dress or it's wearer. Secondly, it invades the dress all over with no specific pattern! THAT is a desprate dress. Last but CERTAINLY not least, RED ON RED is the worst you could do for yourself!!! Red on read is like a big fashion no-no! I have no idea who made this dress but they are soon going to die a fortune-less man or woman."

She would wait for Kurenai-sensei's reply before she would take her over to find a good dress. She then said "Do you know what you're NOT looking for now, sensei?"

[Yuuhi Kurenai]

Kurenai tried her best to understand what was wrong with the dress. She nodded trying to stall while she thought about the dress. "I understand." she finally said after looking at other dresses. Kurenai waited for Ino to pick out a few dresses.
Kurenai wasn't sure if she would like the dresses that Ino would pick out. Sure Ino was a fashion queen but Kurenai wasn't so sure about Ino picking out dresses for someone who is way older than her.

[Yamanaka Ino]

(((OOC- KURENAI!! THAT WAS WAY WORSE!!! -deep breath- you're controlling my character... DON'T DO THAT!!!)))

Ino guided Kurenai over to the dresses. She saw that Kurenai was trying to stick to red. Ino rolled her eyes and accepted this fact. She found a red dress that went slightly past the knee on an angle. It had one sleeve that laced over the dress and also acted as a collar.

She smiled and said to Kurenai, "Why don't you try it on, sensei? I'm sure it will look great on you!"

[Yuuhi Kurenai]

Kurenai looked at the dress. She thought Ino did a good job picking it out. "Ok Ino, I'll try it on." Kurenai went to the nearest dressing room and tried it on. She came out of the dressing room and spin around in it.
"Ino, its beautiful but where would I wear it?" Kurenai asked looking into a full sized mirror. She turned around and waited for Ino to respond.

[Yamanaka Ino]

Ino thought long and hard about the question she was asked. The dress was way to sexy for school, of course. She then got an Idea. She smiled and said sweetly, "This little number would be something great for an evening on the town with friends or on a refresher date with your husband." Ino winked as she mentioned Kurenai's husband.

That dress WAS hot. She would NOT let Kurenai go out of the shop without her buying it. She knew by now that Kurenai-sensei was looking for a dress to wear to school. She then said, "Kurenai-sensei, if you are looking for school dresses for the classroom, I would suggest finding others but still keeping this little number."

[Yuuhi Kurenai]

Kurenai looked at herself in the mirror again. "Well, it is beautiful..." Then she looked at Ino. "I guess I can get other dresses and keep this one...." Kurenai spun around in her dress once more and went back to change out of the dress.
"Ino, if you don't mind will you help me pick out other dresses for school?" Kurenai couldn't put this dress back. It was way to pretty to let anyone else buy it. She held onto the dress and thought, *Wow Ino sure knows what she is doing here.* Then she waited for Ino to lead the way again.

[Yamanaka Ino]

Ino listened to the happy Kurenai-sensei. *Hello, promotion* she thought happily to herself as she heard that Kurenai would buy more than one other dress. With 50 ryou per dress, Ino had nothing to do but smile. She then blushed when Kurenai wanted her to help her out again on picking out stuff. *I must be really good* thought Ino as she smiled proudly.

She then took Kurenai over to another rack of dresses- this time, much less sexy. She found a red dress. It was elegant but still pretty and simple.

She handed the dress over to her sensei and said "Is this one better? once you try it on, I can help you find more." She smiled proudly at her work.

[Yuuhi Kurenai]

Kurenai smiled. *Ino was such a big help!* she thought. She took the dress from Ino and went in a dressing room to try it on.
It fit perfectly!
Kurenai liked this dress almost as much as she did the other one. She walked out of the dressing room and modeled it for Ino. "I like this one too!" she exclaimed spinning around in the dress. Kurenai flashed a big grin at Ino.
Then she went back to take it off. She carefully lifted it off and put her original clothes back on. Kurenai couln't believe her luck. If Ino wasn't here she would of bought that horrible red dress with dark red hemming. "Ino, I know you helped me alot but can you help me find at least one more dress?" Kurenai asked wishing that she would get more beautiful dresses with Ino's help.

[Yamanaka Ino]

Ino smiled at the happy Kurenai as she twirled in circles in front of the mirror. She then turned to the rack. She found another dress! This one had a uniqueness to it but it was still simple and yet elegant.


She handed it to Kurenai and said "This one is nice too. You can try it on when you go to take the other one off. But I would suggest a bit of a bigger changing room. Try the one in the back left corner. It's a little bigger and has a place for you to keep your clothes and the dresses you're going to buy." She smiled.

She thought to herself *I am so getting a promotion! My luck is so great! Especially since they're looking for a new assistant manager!!*

[Yuuhi Kurenai]

Kurenai took the dress that Ino picked at went into a bigger changing room. She slipped off the dress and put the new one on.
It fit her perfectly. "Wow! this dress is so beautiful!" Kurenai exclaimed while walking out of the dressing room to show Ino.
Kurenai twirled and modeled the dress happily. "Thank you so much Ino!" she exclaimed flashing Ino a huge grin. "You always pick the best dresses." Kurenai said looking at herself in a full sized mirror.
She twirled around once more and happily went back to change. Kurenai lifted the dress off and put her original clothes back on. *Wow I should leave Ino a tip for helping me out so much* she thought to herself while coming out of the dressing room.
"Ino, maybe you can help me get one more dress for just normal wear?"Kurenai asked looking around. She couldn't believe how much of a help Ino was.

[Yamanaka Ino]

(((OOC -glomps- KURENAI! YOU ARE FINALLY GETTING IT!)))

Ino nodded and began searching for some every-day casual things for Kurenai that would still make her look great. She instantly found a black one-piece dress with a splendid red over-jacket that made it casual. www.lizdavenport.com.au/UserFiles/Image/ProductSets/Thumbnails/Monochromatic_RedJacket_BlackSkirt_Thumb.jpg

She handed it to Kurenai with a smile. She thought to herself *Hmm, let me see... Kurenai-sensei is buying one formal dress, two school dresses, and probably one casual dress. That will cost her 200 ryou and that means that I earn a 200 ryou pay! Oh the wondrous things I can buy with 200 more ryou! I'm getting along fine and barely breaking a sweat! I guess that Yamanaka Ino IS cut out for the working life!*
