KingofSerpents"Alright, I'll see you then." He replied simply before she left through the door. The young fairy slumped into a chair, his face turning a shade of red. He couldn't believe he said that. She's probably got some weird idea in her head now. He sighed, getting up from his chair. Now wasn't the time to worry about such things, he needed to go back to his family's home and retrieve his outfit, that he never really wore.
It didn't take very long to fly back to his old home, but when he got there, he found out that his suit had been borrowed by his older sister, whom had supposedly just found herself a boyfriend who didn't have his own clothes to wear. "What do you need it for, dearie? You never go to the Equinox Ball." His mother asked, to which he responded with, "I'm going to the Equinox Ball with.. someone." A response that earned him a flurry of questions from his now excited mother. "Who is it? By gods I hope it's a young girl! How old is she? What does she do? Does she like hunting like you? Oh my gosh, I thought you were going to be single forever!", he hesitated for a moment, letting a small silence hang in the air. It was as if his mother's eyes were sparkling with happiness. A lot of things excited his mother, but it usually it wasn't him that caused her joy.
"She's a physician. And I'm meeting up with her.. In about 2 stretches. Talk to you later." He said briefly before flying out the door. This was something he did very often when talking to his mother. Avoid half the questions, answer one of them, exit the house before she could stop him. She'd usually forget all about it later anyway. She probably won't forget about this though.

He avoided most of the shops around Silvermist, since they'd naturally be packed with young fairies that wanted to buy something last minute. He'd never get anything in time. Unlike female attire, male attire didn't emphasize as much on floral things, but there was still the aspect of nature in them. He couldn't worry about finding something of that style, since hardly anyone outside of Silvermist sold such clothing.
As he wandered around, he noticed a small seamstress store that sold what appeared to be fairy sized attire. Mostly female, but it wouldn't hurt to ask. He slowly fluttered in, he didn't get very far before he was greeted by a young woman. "Another fairy customer? Welcome! I assume you're also looking for some formal wear?" She asked cheerfully. Ahmal wondered who the other fairy might be, but he didn't dwell on it for very long. "Yes. I was wondering if you had any male attire?" He asked simply. The seamstress nodded, "I do, but I only have a few. Most of my wares are for females." She responded as she produced a small rack of male fairy formal wear. "I apologize for the style, I wasn't aware that Fairies didn't wear cloth for formal outings..", Ahmal gave her a dismissive wave, "Don't worry too much about it. I'm not that picky." He said, giving her a slight smile.
It didn't take long for him to find something, given that there were only three or four choices on the rack. The seamstress charged him 127 GP for his purchase. It was quite expensive, but he could understand the amount of effort this woman went through to make such a small outfit. He was just glad that it fit him perfectly, although it was a little extravagant for his tastes.
After returning home and quickly changing into his new clothes, he figured it was about time to go meet Lyriia. The travel distance made it so he landed at her porch right on time, or what felt to be right on time. He'd saw her fly back into the house a moment before he got there anyway.
"I'm here." He called briefly. There was nothing else he could really say.
When Lyriia eventually appeared, he offered his hand to her with a small smile on his face, "Shall we?"
