[color=gray][b][u]Interactions:[/u][/b][/color] Kieran[@NeoAC] & Nylah [@Dusksong]

[color=crimson]“Glad you asked,”[/color] Nylah said with a grin, unlocking her phone and pulling up a picture to show to Kieran. The picture was of a [url=https://images.bonanzastatic.com/afu/images/3604/9245/06/Air-Jordan-11-565x372.jpg]black on orange-and-white sneaker[/url] with a very prominent black stamp. [color=crimson]“They’re Air Jordans — Air Jordan numero one retro. I think the color was something like ‘reverse shattered backboard.’ tracking down an orange pair was a lot harder than I thought, but most of the challenge was picking the right one.”[/color] Nylah paused, looking to Kieran with worry. [color=crimson]“Phillip still plays basketball, right? I went out on a limb and bought these instead of running shoes since he mentioned that he played in high school. God, I should have checked, shouldn’t I?”[/color] she asked, more to herself than Kieran. [color=crimson]“This would be so awkward if he didn’t…”[/color]

Kieran was still rolling the bagel bite in his mouth after seeing the present Nylah got. "[color=0072bc][i]Uhhhh.....[/i][/color]" He finally swallowed. [color=0072bc][i]Yeah...yeah, he still hoops. Not as much as in high school, but he still does...[/i][/color]"

The Canadian was now feeling a bit down on his own present. The resources simply weren't there to compete on the same level that Nylah could. [i]I couldn't even buy my own breakfast and she's got vintage Jordans out of the ether...Dang...[/i]

He took another bite, much smaller this time. [color=0072bc][i]I think he's going to like 'em just fine, Nylah.[/i][/color]"

[color=crimson]“That's good to hear,”[/color] Nylah said, a little relieved to hear that her last-minute order was up to par. Now one-half of the way through her bagel sandwich, she figured that they'd tackle the other important things first. [i]And that includes costumes for tonight.[/i] 

[color=crimson]“So what are you wearing tonight -- you PJ's?”[/color] Nylah joked before quickly recovering herself and shooting the Canadian an unamused look. [color=crimson]“I hope my guess isn't entirely accurate.”[/color]

Nylah was on fire today. Once again, Kieran was forced to stop eating. "[color=0072bc][i]Uh...not entirely accurate...[/i][/color]" He sighed. "[color=0072bc][i]I was going to throw on a sleep mask.[/i][/color]" He rested his head on his hand, bed hair draped to the side. "[color=0072bc][i]I dunno. It was just a joke, but I guess I'm gonna have to run with it. Aside from going and renting an animal costume, I'm not sure what else to do with sloth. Not exactly an 'active' theme, you know?[/i][/color]"

[color=crimson]“Well the color for sloth is light blue, so I hope you have some PJ's that color,"[/color] Nylah said in suggestion.

Kieran nodded. "[color=0072bc][i]At least I got that going for me then.[/i][/color]" He took his second to last bite of bagel and quickly swallowed it. "[color=0072bc][i]Should be enough to avoid the dagger stares, right? And I probably got Rui to deflect from criticism anyway. Phil wants him to match the theme, but you know how Rui is.[/i][/color]"

[color=crimson]"True. Rui would make an excellent 'Pride,'"[/color] Nylah said, grinning in amusement at the thought. [color=crimson]"Just imagine: confident in a purple suit with just the right touch of snobbishness"[/color] 

Speckles of green through the crowd on the streets reminded Nylah that it was Saint Patrick's Day, and she looked to Kieran with a grin. [color=crimson]"Isn't there some sort of parade going on tonight for St. Patrick's?"[/color] 

"[color=0072bc][i]Yeah, there is and...[/i][/color]" Kieran looked down at his outfit, devoid of any green coloring whatsoever. "[color=0072bc][i]Ah jeez...I'm going to get so many pinches today. Least I know I can still take 'em, right?[/i][/color]" He finished the last bite of breakfast. "[color=0072bc][i]Do you want to go check it out before party prep tonight?[/i][/color]"

[color=crimson]"Sounds like a plan to me,"[/color] Nylah said, polishing off her own sandwich as well. [color=crimson]"Er, where is it at again?"[/color] 

After some google searches and asking around, Kieran and Nylah were able to find the parade -- and recieve lots of pinches as well as a solo cup or two of Irish whiskey -- before the two split up to head home and change into their outfits.
