"It looks lovely!"
From the way the second woman peered at her reflection, Stella knew she wasn't selling her on the outfit that Stella had insisted she wear. "It's very..." Pondering a moment, Stella kept her bright look on her face. "It's very flattering." She knew instantly that hadn't been the word the other blonde had been going for. "For you." Stella wouldn't deny that, after all, she had picked them out for the other woman. Kirtana was definitely not the type Stella would have ever been in the same circle with growing up, but from their time together at the mansion, Stella had begun to like the woman. She was short with others at times, and too...brash sometimes, but she had a respect for her, and had come to be an expert at dealing with her personality. She had no idea if the blonde felt the same way when it came to her, but she didn't give Kirtana the leeway to brush her off. they were both under protection in the Caelum mansion for the same reason after all, standing up against their roots, own countrymen, and family to do what they thought was right. It hadn't been an easy road, but nothing good ever came easily.
"Oh fiddlesticks! It looks flattering on you too!" Instantly Stella brightened at the sound of her maid's voice. "Elise is right.", Stella said enthusiastically. "And Etro help me, if I saw anymore black, I think I might have just gone and stabbed my eye out with a fork. What's wrong with having a bit of color in your life?" Though Kirtana might have denied wearing the clothes had it just been Stella there, she had no doubt that Elise could get her to do it. No one could deny the older woman. Besides, Stella felt the same way about Kirtana's clothes. She wouldn't deny that black was classic and she wore it quite a bit herself, but...she never went around dressed in complete black like her fellow blonde did. It gave her a headache sometimes, thinking of all the depressing clothes that she had. "And I didn't make you wear a skirt.", she pointed out cheerfully.
Finally she agreed to the clothes and Stella couldn't help but smile in victory. Not one piece of black on the blonde! That was a small battle won in her eyes. Perhaps she should raid her closet when Kirtana was gone, take all of her black clothes and take her shopping. She had her own stash of money that Elise had remembered and brought when she had come to find her, so she could buy some for her. "We should go shopping." Stella hadn't realized until the moment after that she had voiced her thoughts...but oh well. If she refused, she would enlist the help of Gladiolus to assist in getting her to go shopping, even if he had to carry the feisty dragoon around. From her expression of slight horror, Stella guessed that she would indeed have to enlist Gladiolus' help on this. "That's a fantastic idea!" Once again Stella felt appreciation for her maid, who had been more like a mother growing up. "I don't know..." Well of course she didn't! She didn't go shopping, she probably had no idea how fun it could be with a few girlfriends. "Oh don't worry, Elise and I would be more than happy to make it a girls day out." Somehow that didn't seem to ease her feelings of uncertainty.
"I don't know the city very well." Stella recognized the change of subject, but decided she wouldn't push the issue today. "Me either.", she said in slight disappointment. Stella had been meaning to ask Noctis to show her around, but with everything that had happened there hadn't been time. Plus he was a busy person, so she had also wondered about one of the guardians. Ignis was an immediate no. Stella thought he would probably rather dump their dead bodies in some random sewer than have to be around the two 'enemy' women. Prompto would probably jump at the opportunity, and after finding out he was also from Tenebrae she had been interested in finding out more about him. Unfortunately she didn't doubt that Kirtana would probably gut him if she had to spend over five minutes with the energetic man. So Gladiolus. Stella liked him, and though she wasn't nosy, she had figured out that Kirtana like liked him. Okay, well maybe they should go and find the boys and go out today. “I think…we should have Noct or one of the others to show us around.”, she decisively mentioned. Instantly Elise nodded furiously. “Oh well that’s a WONDERFUL idea! Just don’t ask that Prompto or Gladiolus! Did you HEAR what they did last Wednesday?!” Stella instantly tried to hide the grin that crossed her features. “Come on, this will last forever.”, she whispered while she started to drag Kirtana away. “Okay Elise! We have to go see about it.” Even as they walked out of the room, Elise was still behind them, complaining about the two guardians.
