With the Gala fastly approaching, the group figured it was time to get all of their affairs in order. Mostly, it was just them wanting to go shopping and find pretty things to wear for the fancy party. For the most part, it's been a while since they've really had anything to celebrate, and with this party come up right around Winter's Crest for them, it seemed all too appropriate.

Pike gathers those who want to come around, itching to get started. "So, where should we start first?"

It's funny that its Winter's Crest again so soon. It doesn't feel all that long ago that they liberated Whitestone, that the Conclave decided Emon needed to be subjected to Dragonification, since they all woke up here.. But apparently, Wyver and Olympia share a similar holiday, and are actually sharing a gala, and Pike is BACK so of course, there's only one way to celebrate.

Shopping.

(No doubt, somewhere deep in sleep, Grog is twitching in horror at the thought of it all.)

So when Pike asks, Vex at least is all in, and not about to waste time. "We want to look good, so we'll want to go to the upper quarters and check the markets. Get an idea for what they see as 'in' and work our way from there."

[hraefnes]

As far as Vax is concerned, he's just along for the ride. The girls and Taryon seem very excited about the ball, and the shopping trip beforehand, and Vax likes seeing everyone else excited, so he comes along.

His last Winter Crest had been in Whitestone, with Keyleth and Percy and Vex. It'd been quiet, it'd been nice, and now they were dealing with...whatever they wanted to call this. So when Pike mentions shopping, and Vex and Keyleth light up at the idea, he's not going to comment.

Instead, he will follow along - eyes to the crowds out of habit and little else. "And then find it somewhere else for cheaper?"

[taryon]

It's sort of strange to do this without Grog, even if— well, even Tary knew how much he hated lengthy shopping trips. But the goliath eye-rolling and sighing was just part of the Vox Machina experience. Just as much as Vex deal-hounding — which is why, despite the strangeness between them still, Taryon smiles beneath his mustache at Vax's comment.

"And then go back to the first merchant to use that as leverage." He knows the game, even if he's still not very good at it, too used to being too rich to care.
