The blood seems to drain from Tomoes face and she struggles to find the words I uh...she....she is the one who traded my life for Lucia's. She held me down so i could not stop the fallen angel from going through with the trade. I think shes worried i hate her now. I am not sure how i feel about it to be honest.

Roll Deception vs Insight: 14

Nevermind. Then. Kate accepts that answer and doesn't push the issue further. Though Tomoe knowing what's really up, Ingrid might continue getting more... whatever it is that's happening to her.

Unfortunately,  there's not much Tomoe can do right now. And that worries her. She can't fix a problem she's not allowed to explore openly. She'll have to find a way to learn about what's been done to her sister on her on and in secret...somehow.

In the meantime,  with Kate satisfied for now, she returns to her fiancé and finishes breakfast.

Lucia says, "With all that happened, I'm ready to go. We should head to the bath first!" Kate grumbles, "Baths are nice but I really hope the Champ isn't there. It feels like every time we go there, we run into that psycho." 

I am not so sure she scares me any more. I just tried to stand up to a lesser diety. Results not withstanding, she is not as scary as that was...is Tomoe sighs a bit. Anyways, if we do meet her there, I will just have to make her jealous so she will not talk to us.

Kate says, "I don't know. I think if I had to chose, I'd rather take my chances against a lesser fallen angel than the champ. I heard evil people turn into evil angels when they die. I really hope that isn't true and if it is, the Champ doesn't turn into one. She's bad enough as she is." Luckily at the bath house, Yuno was nowhere to be seen. Maybe she's out killing someone.

Tomoe stays as close to Lucia as she can. She waits on her hand and foot, getting her anything she needs. She enjoys the peaceful times and will gently hold Lucia's hand whenever she can, not wanting to let her go.

After an enjoying and quiet time at the pool, Lucia pulls Tomoe away a bit. "Hey Kate.Can you go get us some play tickets? I'll meet you with Chief later." Kate leaves and Lucia says, "Chief, I want to show you something. Come with me." 

Tomoe laughs excitedly as Lucia enthusiastically leads her away. Oh? Lead the way.

Lucia leads Tomoe to a blacksmith's shop. She enters and calls out, "Hey is the armor ready yet?" The dwarven blacksmith huffs and brings in a black armor made in the style of Edo... but not quite. Rather it seems to be a design based on a combination of Lucia's own sense of style and what Tomoe has told her of Edo over their time together.

She says, "I got this for you as an engagement gift. It took a lot of string pulling and a lot of money but I got it."

Lucia leans back on a wall and lets Tomoe inspect the armor.

"Kate and I both died and got back. That means it's your turn next. Might as well wear something fancier for the occasion." It was a very awkward joke Lucia made and one that she seemed to force out. It was a bit clear why she said it though. She noticed how shaken Tomoe has been ever since the angel encounter and Lucia wanted to take some of the gravity of the incident away. It wasn't just for Tomoe though. Dying was not a fun experience for her and she figured by joking about it, it would help not weigh her down.

Tomoe marvels at the garment. It's Edo inspiration is very evident.  But it's not purely a garment from her home. Kind of like herself, it's something more. She notices the deep V shape at the neckline. It's so pretty, but i have never worn anything that, etto.....how do I say....shows so much skin?

Lucia pokes Tomoe in the side lightly with her elbow. "Hey. You got Kate and me to play dress up. Now it's your turn. Just try it on. It's not THAT scandalous."

Tomoe giggles at Lucia's teasing. Of course I will. I just need a moment to find my courage. Tomoe looks for a place to change

Given the customization capabilities of enchanted armor, any blacksmith shop that sold such armor also had a room to change and try out armors.

Tomoe find the changing area. I will be just a few minutes. Tomoe struggles as first as, while it has clear Edo inspirations and designs, it is not actually an Edo outfit. But she eventually figures it out. After another moment of hesitation, she shyly presents herself to Lucia, struggling not to hide the parts if skin now shown off.

Lucia steps away from the wall she was leaning against and moves toward Tomoe. "Hey don't be too shy about it. " She then extends her arms to almost show of her own outfit and says, "I was actually thinking of getting you something that has the same design as the one you got for me. But I figured that'd be a bit too out there compared to what you usually wear. So it could have been worse." 

Tomoe smiles and slowly drops her arms to her sides exposing her full cleavage and almost bare arms. Well then, how do I look?

"You look great! We should go find Kate now and show her your new armor. Err... Chief... you look like you're carrying a lot of stuff. You doing alright?" Now that the new armor, which, despite looking very light was actually heavier than it looked, was added to the weight of the stuff she was already carrying; it was making it really troublesome for Tomoe  to even walk around.

I have been carrying around alot of our spare arms and armor. I suppose we should get rid of what we don't need. Tomoe, with Lucias aid, will rummage through their stuff and pick out what's not needed to sell off.
