"Yep. It's you." Babamon sighed. "My eyes aren't as good as they used to be. ...Should probably invest in a helper to greet people." The granny hmmmed in a rather pensive manner as she thought on this. Meanwhile...
Joker had decided to humor Nereid. "Ooooh...You worked at a bank? What job? Did you get to handle a lotta bits? Was there a Barbamon there?" The clam inquired, while Naoko looked on in confusion. "These...These guys have banks?" None of this explanation had explained a single thing!
Titania and Naoko were, however, capable of assessing one's proverbial choice in fashion. The former flew a little closer to the shirt, and put a claw upon her chin. "Hm! I'd say it'd fit a very particular kind of style of clothing, but...Somehow, you seem like this would fit you perfectly. Try not to get the ripped parts caught on anything, though."
Naoko meanwhile took a look at the multi-belted pair of jeans. "I think they'd look good paired together, but the jeans might cost a bunch...I'll try covering you if they do, okay?"

“Why, of course we have banks, bewildered blue person!” The Clown Prince replied to Naoko’s confused inquiry, smiling jovially at her. “No Barbamon in charge of it, thankfully. Just a jolly old Ganemon, who was very gullible and easy to manipulate for my twisted schemes… Oh, but that’s neither here nor there!” Hearing their convo, Yuko also tilted her head in confusion. “And Ganemon is…?” “Giant golden coin with a mustache.” “Of course he is.”
Back to clothes shopping, Titania seemed to approve of the pieces that Yuko had singled out, while Naoko even offered to cover her if she couldn’t afford the full price. “You will? Dude, that’s awesome! Thanks!” The delinquent said in genuine gratitude, before retreating to the changing booth, closing the curtain behind her.
While the girl was busy getting changed, Jokermon got closer to the duo. “So, Ms. Naoko. I understand that you and Yuko were acquaintances in the human world. Did you also meet her by crashing into her in a comedic fashion? Oh, I’m just dying to know~” He giddily asked, clasping his gloved hands together.

"Yeah, and the fact you have banks is confusing considering from what I'm aware of, you guys LITERALLY sweat money." WIth that in mind, one could probably understand why Naoko was confused, right? "You'd think a giant mustache'd coin would be a bit less easy to manipulate, though..." The bluenette murmured. Nereid, however, seemed to nod in understanding. Somehow, and someway, the clam had understood what the clown was telling her.
More on the subject of clothes, though, Naoko nodded at Yuko. "It's no problem, really!" Seriously, they had a good amount of bits saved up, this would likely be a great use for them. Naoko glanced at Jokermon, while Titania opted to interject. "I don't think they crashed into each other...Naoko, what was the story behind that again?" The fairy inquired.
"Oh, uh...We met by getting into a fight with the same bully and kicking him between the legs. Nothing too big a deal--though I had to take her to the nurse afterwards. I don't...think it's that comedic, really."

“Sweating money? When you put it like that, it sounds awfully disgusting, hahaha!” Jokermon replied, chuckling as he tended to do. He then assumed a rather noble, arrogant stance, straightening his spine, puffing his chest with pride and holding the seams of his colorful tailcoat. “I assure you, mon cheri, us Digimon do know how to use deodorant… well, most of us do anyway. As a seasoned Tamer, I’m sure you have met a handful of Numemon and Sukamon by now.”
Naoko’s story of how she and Yuko had met got another laugh out of the mad jester. “You kicked him in the groin? Bahahahahahaha!! Oh, that’s classic! Simply classic!” He exclaimed in an explosion of jolliness, holding his stomach and wiping a fake tear from his eye. “Who knew that schoolyard scuffles could get so violent!”
The Demon Man Digimon suddenly put a hand on his chin, as if thinking, and looked the blue-haired teen from head to toe. “Hmmmm… You could use a wardrobe update too. I suggest picking warm colors to complement that Gaomon fur that’s growing out of your head.”

"But isn't that what it basically is?" Naoko inquired as Joker went to figuratively dig his heels in on the whole 'do Digimon actually sweat money' deal. "Oh. Um. Auntie hasn't met any Numemon or Sukamon, she's just read about them." Nereid noted, "But rest assured! I, Nereid, Princess of the Tides, know how to deodorize myself! It's called taking a shower."
...Somehow, the Syakomon managed to emanate a sinister aura of smug power while she said that. Naoko meanwhile nodded. "Yep. Not the wisest move in the world considering it just pissed the guy off." Which also left him open to being clobbered by nerd books. But, that was something Yuko could probably add in when she got out. If she could hear them.
Naoko, of course, blinked at Jokermon's assessment of her fashion. She was mostly wearing blue, with the exception of her white hoodie. "It...It's not fur. And I think my wardrobe's fine as is." What would she even get...? "Hey, I bet people'd like it if you put some variety into how you dress!" Titania seemed to agree with the clown, too. What a surprise! "Though, I'm also at a loss as to what'd work best on you..."

“Taking a shower, huh? I’m more of a bath person myself. Nothing beats relaxing in your very own bathhouse with a glass of fine wine in your hand and an entire harem of LadyDevimon catering to your every need. Ahhh, the good old days…” The Clown Prince of the Dark Area sighed longingly, reminiscing of his presumably glorious past.
Despite Naoko insisting that she didn’t need any new clothes, Titania took Jokermon’s side for once, and insisted that she introduced some variety into her life. “You should listen to your golf ball-sized partner, young lady. I for one think that a nice dress and a pair of glasses would look fabulous on you!”
“Hell no, she’s way too tall to pull off the Moe look.” Yuko said, having just come out of the changing booth clad in her brand new clothes. “How do I look?” Jokermon gave her a gesture of approval. “Marvelous! You look just like a WereGarurumon… without the furry parts, obviously.” “That’s nice… I think…” The punk girl gave him a smile of uncertainty, before turning to Naoko. “But yeah, you should try a shirt with rolled up sleeves. Oh, maybe a vest! It’ll make you look like a girl who can kick a guy’s ass!”

"Baths are nice and all, but showers build character! And...Did you just suggest the -Moe look?-" ...Naoko looked a little insulted at that notion. Titania, meanwhile, looked down at herself. Yep, still palm-sized. But definitely not a golf ball. Either way, both Naoko, Titania and Nereid turned to look at Yuko, and while the first two names gave a nod of definite approval, Nereid was a tad more vocal.
"I'd ship that!"
Slowly, but surely, Titania turned her head to look at her daughter. "...Sweetie, we don't ship people we barely know." If there was any proof needed as to who was the probable boss of the clam needed, look no further. "Awww..." Nereid murmured. Meeeanwhile, Naoko nodded at Yuko. "I could give that a shot...Hm. Give me a second." She replied, before she went to go...find clothes, assumedly.
Swiftly as she left, she returned with shirts and a vest in hand to go disappear into the changing room.

Nereid’s comment clearly left Yuko looking rather confused. It wasn’t as if she wasn’t familiar with the term and how it was usually used, she was just thrown for a loop as all. “You’d ship that… as in shipping? Who would you ship me with?” The girl asked with a warm smile, squatting on her knees in order to get down to Nereid’s eye level.
Regardless of what absolute madness the little clam was gonna unleash with her shipping pairs, it seemed that Naoko eventually picked some clothes she wished to try out, and went into the changing room to do so. Yuko then looked back and forth between her own partner and Titania, before poking the Faerie Queene with another question. “Anyway… You said that Naoko helped you reach a higher level, right? How does that work exactly? I understand that Jokah Digivolved or whatever it’s called, because me and my friends were in danger. So, is it like a reflex thing that happens during dangerous situations?”

Yuko had accidentally activated the most glaring and painful proverbial trap of all that lay within her journey as a Digidestined. It wasn't anything truly insidious or life-threatening, it was simply...Nereid. Or, more specifically, Nereid's self-proclaimed status as the Royal Shipper.
The Syakomon looked Yuko dead in the eyes, and 'hmmmm'ed. "Well, I'd put you with the cutest girl or guy I know that also likes punk aesthetics! I'd say you sleep with the Evie, but you're not a guy, and that usually ends in death either way!" What sort of -madness- did Yuko just accidentally unleash?
Titania sighed at her child, before she opted to answer Yuko's question. "Yes, I did. It's generally how you said. A reflex that tends to activate whenever those you care for are in danger, or when you yourself are in absolute peril. It could also occur as...a response to loss, as I learned the hard way once."
...oh.

“W-who’s Evie… and why is she deadly?” Yuko nervously asked, a bead of sweat appearing on her forehead. She certainly didn’t expect Nereid to be so enthusiastic about creating theoretical pairings for people, let alone to try ‘shipping’ her with a girl. Did Yuko even swing that way? Her cheeks flushed a faint, yet noticeable shade of pink. Damn… This talking clam was making her question all sorts of things about herself.
The Japanese delinquent turned her attention back to Titania, who shed some more light into how the whole Digivolution thing worked. It sounded straightforward enough, until the fairy queen left a rather grim implication. “A response to loss? Oh shit, I’m… I’m so sorry…” Now she regretted bringing it up in the first place. “Hold on, there’s gotta be an interesting story behind this.” Jokermon intervened. “Maybe she doesn’t wanna talk about it!” Yuko said, glaring at the nosy clown. “What? Death among Digimon isn’t even a permanent thing… most of the time.” Jokah replied, shrugging nonchalantly.

"Evie's the mankiller! But you're not a man, so you don't have to worry about sleeping with the Evie." Nereid nodded, sagely. She -would- have continued on that little tangent, before the mood just suddenly went down on account of her mother. Of course, Titania met the nosy clown with a genuine glare.
"That's the thing, it wasn't among a Digimon. It was a human. I'd rather not go further into this, please." The fairy's tone shifted into something one could regard as ice cold. If one were paying attention to Nereid, the clam looked more than a little confused, given this was stuff she had not heard of before. Meanwhile, the door opened up to reveal Naoko wearing a vest over a shirt with a skull on it.
"...Elephants in the room aside, I don't know if this fits me well at all." She admitted. Had...she been hearing the whole thing?

The young Tamer’s eyes widened in shock. “A human?! How did they… No, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have asked anything…” She said with a saddened frown, which soon turned into more of an angry scowl, as she punched Jokermon’s arm. “OW!” “And you should learn when it’s best to just drop an issue!” Yuko chastised the self-proclaimed Demon King, knowing full well that being tactful was not his strongest suit.
The punk girl nearly jumped in surprise when Naoko came behind them all dressed up in her new clothes. Given what they were discussing seconds earlier, Yuko couldn’t wipe that incriminating and regretful look off her face. “Oh! Naoko-san… I think it looks nice on you…” She responded, although she was clearly looking down at her own feet absentmindedly, rather than giving the attire so much as a glance. If Naoko had overheard their discussion, and if that person Titania mentioned was related to her somehow, it’d be best not to keep pressing the issue.

The look on Nereid's face became a touch shocked when Yuko went and punched the clown in the arm. Woah, violence! She hadn't seen this in a while. Titania just let out another sigh as she glanced towards Naoko. "You look fine--kind of reminds me of something Otohime'd wear...Or Yuko herself. Hm." The fairy wondered if her tamer just sort of had the ability to attract a very specific kind of company.
"Thanks." Naoko responded to both Yuko and the fairy. "I'm...just gonna assume we're dropping what you guys were talking about. We can go pay now, right?" While it was best not to discuss whatever the heck that was in here, they did have just about everything they wanted for the moment, did they not?
"If it makes you feel any better, auntie, I don't know what they were talking about." Nereid quietly uttered, meanwhile. "Maybe I should keep the phrase "Sleeping with the Evies" to myself next time or something." The clam then muttered under her breath.

“Yeah, I’d wear that. Vests are cool.” Yuko confirmed, eventually giving Naoko’s attire a better look. Between her asking them to drop whatever it was they were talking about - implying that she did actually know, and was feigning ignorance for the sake of not making an awkward situation even worse - and Nereid even feeling guilty for supposedly sparking this discussion, it was safe to say they wouldn’t be addressing it anytime soon.
“I’ll chip in however I can. Can’t let you pay my whole tab yourself.” The teenage delinquent said, reaching into her pockets for the mysterious currency known as ‘bits’, which she dropped onto Babamon’s counter. “It’s not much, but it’s what I have.” “It’s been nice catching up with you, Babamon. Mwwwwwaaahh~” Jokermon walked up to the elderly Digimon, giving her a long, noisy kiss on the lips. Well, that was just weird! However, Yuko would take ‘weird’ over ‘awkward and uncomfortable’ any day of the week. “So… where should we go now?” She asked Naoko and co.

Yeah, it was probably best that they let this matter lie. Naoko headed up to the front with Babamon with everyone in tow to pay her the bits needed, which, between herself and Yuko, was relatively simple to cover! "It's not a problem, but thank you." Naoko told Yuko, a smile forming on her face at the gesture.
While Babamon herself didn't react too much to the kiss, she did say one thing to Jokermon. Something that'd make anyone swell with pride, likely. "You're my favorite customer." The elderly Digimon nodded. She seemed serene where she was. Anywho, as to the question of where to go...
"Well, is there anything else you two need to go do? Like I said, we're here to help." Naoko nodded. While Titania remained quiet in thinking, Nereid had a GALAXY BRAIN idea. "What if we got them the food and water and stuff so they don't get hungry later?"
"Like snacks? Or?" Titania questioned her daughter. "Mmm. Dunno!" The clam replied. Seems they had been at an impasse!
