Comments

Elliott was brought back to reality by a rather attractive woman commenting on the jacket. He took it off with an embarrassed laugh and turned around to look at her.

"You don't think I could pull it off?" He joked.

Raven folded her hands behind her back as she slid her eyes from him-in-the-mirror to him-in-real-life, a little smile curving at her mouth. It was full of amusement, almost glittering with it.

"I don't know," she told him, "It's almost too camp for words. You know how you sometimes come across pieces of retro revival clothing, and your gut reaction is 'oh my god, why did they bring that back?' That's me and fringe."

Elliott's smile only grew with his eyes dancing with humor. "That's my opinion on bell bottoms," he replied. "I think fringe feels better to wear than it actually looks. Here, try it." He held the jacket open to put it on here.

"At least bell bottoms have the added benefit of making your butt look amazing," Raven pointed out, though she did hesitantly turn around, letting him help slide the jacket on. It probably wouldn't go with her dress at all, but so be it.

"But they do nothing for my girlish figure," he joked, striking an exaggerated feminine pose. "But see? Don't you feel the movement in the jacket with the fringe?" He asked after putting it on her shoulders.

She laughed at that, the sound musical and light. "Next question: why do I need movement in my jackets? I've got dresses and hair for that."

"You need it when you're riding on your motorcycle through the city at night," he answered as though this was the most obvious thing ever.

"What makes you think I have a motorcycle to ride through the city at night?" Raven asked him a touch teasingly, glancing over to admire herself in the mirror. Definitely not her thing, not least of all because it was a little too big for her frame.

She glanced back over her shoulder. "Do you have a motorcycle? I'd have though the subway was a better bet for getting around."

"You just look the type to enjoy adventure," he remarked with a chuckle to his tone. "I do actually. I used to live in Jersey, which you can't get to with the subways." That and he just thought he looked cool on one.

"I never said I didn't love a little adventure," she admitted, her grin bright and warm. There was no small amount of interest in her expression at his own admission, though. "Do you have it here?"
