Shopping genderswap snippet (Boyd/Erica)
"How does this look?"
Boyd blinks. "Like you have an ass," she says, and goes back to her book.
"Boyd!"
Eric's pouting now. He makes it look good, but yeah, that's not going to work.
"Not Isaac," Boyd points out, because if he'd wanted detailed fashion advice? He could have damn well asked someone else to come with him.
Eric rolls his eyes. "Right, because what I really wanted was to spend an hour looking at scarves while listening to Scott McCall Fan Radio. Like we don't get enough of that at lunch."
"He's been talking about Allison, too," Boyd points out. She's back to staring at her book, not that she's actually trying to read it, but Eric is merciless when he sees he has an advantage, and Boyd wants smoothies *before* the next supernatural crisis hits, thanks.
"Really? UGH." She does look up then, because the disgusted face Eric makes at the thought of an Allison-Scott-Isaac sandwich(and how disgusting Isaac would be about it afterwards) is pretty fantastic. Something glitters in the changing room, and when she looks--
"Eric. Take the girl jeans out."
Eric glares. "What the hell? Seriously, Boyd, I can't believe-"
"You always forget about the pocket size and then shit falls out," Boyd says. Eric pouts again.
"No," Boyd turns back to her book. "You have fifteen minutes and then I'm leaving." She's done it before. The best smoothie place closes in an hour and a half, and like hell is she getting second-best tonight. Plus, if Eric's trying on sparkly things then he's done with serious shopping and about to move on to his hypothetical drag wardrobe, and Boyd doesn't have time for that.
(They've talked about it, though. Boyd would be fine with just going out like that, but Eric is going to want all the attention he can get. That's fine. Boyd knows when Jungle has open mic night and they're going to do it as soon as they agree on a song, which might take a while. Eric wants to ask Derek to do his makeup, at least half to see if he's gonna shed a single manly tear over all his feeeeelings. Whatever. He's old enough that if he can't say no to Eric it will be completely his fault. It's probably gonna be as funny as the time she went drag-shopping with Isaac. It's nice to have that to look forwards to. It's nice to have a lot of things to look forwards to; it still hits her, sometimes, how new that is.)
She checks her watch.
"Seven minutes!" she yells, and Eric yells "Fuck you!" back. She goes back to her book.
END.
