This really made the man think...He need these sold! He but his hands on the hips of his own Thobe. “Hrmmmph…lowest i can go if 50% cant go any lower. Theres some good places around here for medicine for cheap or in dire need, for free. But i cant go any lower sorry”
Arabasta had a rich knowledge and history of Medicine. Often many did work for free due to the Harshness of the Desert. With something so harsh, you learn to always accept a helping hand, and to lift that hand if need.
Kirk lit up, pretending as if he were about to hug the man but managed to hold back at just the last moment (when really, he would've HATED to touch anyone.)
“You are so kind!” The navigator said warmly while brushing away his fake tears. “Truly, you are amazing! We will never forget this, thank you!” He mentioned for everyone to grab what they wanted while picking out the money to hand over. Noir finally jumped to attention and just went with the flow of everyone, going over to pick out the outfit he needed for the desert.
“Any time.” He said with a nod “Hope your friend gets the help they need."
Leroy walked over and perused the selection of clothes before pulling off the robe from the table and slipping it over his clothes, he then picked up one of the head covering clothes and wrapped it around his head like a hood “There!” Jeanne browsed, looking for something breathable and light weight. Something that fit her style. “Ah! That’ll work” A thin beige linen cloak that looked very similar to that of a poncho and it had a hood that could be pulled up. It was thick enough to block the sun, but thin enough to be breathable
Kále didn't have a whole lot to say about Arabasta so far, to him it just seemed a bit boring. No one who looks really strong, no one who seems interesting and he certainly wasn't interested in the pretty Arabastian girls. When it came to buying clothes, he didn't want anything too flashy, he didn't even know what any of these robes were, so he just picked the first Thobe he saw off of the shelf. It was black, with white embroidering around the neck and ends of the sleeves. It had short sleeves since Kále didn't particularly fancy long-waving sleeves like the other ones had. And if he needed to protect his arms from the sun he would just tuck them into his robe and problem solved! "Good enough..." He said before turning and walking away from the shop, destined to get lost in the abyss that is this small town.
“Whats about you dezzi? Anything cool here” He said gaze shiftting down to the doctor
“Oh, uhh... right” Dezzi would step over and quite quickly find something they liked, a white shemagh with blue fringes. Picking it up, they would hold it up to Leroy with a shine in their eyes. They didn’t have any use for a tunic or a robe, so this shemagh was the only thing they pulled out “I like this, it looks good!”
"Oooo! I like it too! It'd go good with your mask!" He said with a returning smile

Kirk, after handing over the money, was shopping for his own outfit. He quickly slid over to Jeanne, bumping her gently with his elbow while grinning. “What are you getting? You better pick something cute! Maybe you’ll find a cute girl from it!” He chuckled, holding pastel sky blue fabric with white criss cross patterns over his arm. Noir wasn’t really one for fashion (clearly, with his god awful style) and just sorta picked out something random. A cactus green fit with light yellow spots over it. Spots were good, right? …rrriiiiight?
Jeanne had already picked out her clothes and was slipping on over her clothes when she heard what kirk had said. "Oh hush!" she said playfully with a light tap of her fist to the shoulder of the fishmen
“Whaaaat?” Kirk said playfully, laughing again before starting to slip in his own clothes. “I’m just looking out for you!” He put a hand up to his mouth as he laughed. “Plus this is the Arabasta Kingdom, you know! Maybe you’ll catch a princess’ eye!”
Noir, obviously checking over to see what Jeanne had gotten, was immediately heart broken when he saw the navigator and the sniper laughing together. Jealousy fumed up inside of his and he quickly turned away from the two with a childish huff, roughly pulling his new outfit over his head before crossing his arms.
"Only if they have the brains to back it up..." She said with a bit of a blush Leroy peaked out a Smile as he chuckled "We should get going!"
The crew spent the next few minutes walking the town. Jeanne had specifically stopped at a Hukkah stand and admired the craftsmenship of the different pipes, bulbs, and even the variety of 'flavored' charcoal to give the Smoke a different flavor instead of being made from coconut. She was honestly enamored by all the varieties that Arabasta had, they must've had quite a strong culture around such things! But eventually they had to move on.
Needing to get the lay of the land before really snooping around. And luckily there weren't any marines near by! "Gosh...I'm getting hungry..." Leroy said grabbing his stomach slightly "Maybe we should split up or something...And I'll go find some food!" He said with a half-joking smile
Kále's new outfit was suiting him quite well he thought. The thobe went down to just above his ankles, leaving his rugged sandals exposed. His hair was tied up into a fashionable bun that perched just on top of his head. He didn't want it waving around in the desert since it might get in his eyes. Leroy mentioning splitting up sounded good to Kále. He didn't see much point in walking around as a group, they'd cover a lot more ground if they were grouped off.
As long as he didn't have to go with the lapdog chef and Jeanne... "I'm not very hungry. I can go with someone who wants to look around some more." He said, praying that he didn't have to go with the chef.
“I’d like to find some spices for the ship, honestly.” Noir offered, at least making it know he also wanted to split up. Kirk seemed uneasy about the whole splitting up thing. “Well… I don’t know. If this Hornigold guy is any stronger than Rango, then Leroy could be in a lot of shit if something happened. If we are going to split up, at least someone needs to go with or be near by him so he doesn’t get into trouble.”
