Aritha peeked in, seeing that the room was empty. Well, she'd sort of told Joelle she was planning to bring Rudeth over, so maybe her roommate had decided she didn't want to be around. Understandable, and perfect. Grinning widely, she pulled out her bag of clothing that she'd made and dropped it on her bed. Reaching outside again, she grabbed Rudy's arm and pulled him into her room, then pointed at the bag. "All of that is meant for you."
Just visible under her bed were two more bags, one with a hint of silk adorned with a bell that meant the bag was probably more clothing for her. An open sewing kit rested at the foot of her bed, several colors of thread each with their own needle and beads spilled in a small pool in the blankets. Most of her side of the room held pieces of cloth and outfits in various states of construction.

Rudeth stepped in after Bianca, rubbing his shoulder a bit. While he was used to dealing with people who were as strong as him, if not stronger, Bianca had a tendency to underestimate her strength on occasion. Which could be, understandably, a little painful. Not that Rudeth minded terribly much, of course; he'd suffered far worse injuries than a few sore joints.
Rudeth leaned against Bianca, peering at the clothing on her bed. He thought for a moment, then glanced from her bed to her, then back to her bed again, and -- in a somewhat delayed reaction -- realized that he was in her room, and more importantly, he was in her room alone with her. The room was warm, and had the same rich earthy scent as she always did, and he was close enough to smell the sweet aroma of her shampoo. It was a bit much for Rudeth to take in all at once.
Rudeth took a step back. "So--" His voice caught in his throat, and he coughed slightly to cover it, glancing around the room at the various decorations and bits of clutter and the general organized chaos of Bianca's room/work-station, looking nearly anywhere but directly at his girlfriend. "So, um, what's first?"

Giggling, she pulled out a shirt and vest, pushing them gently into his chest. "Tell me how this fits. Bathroom's all yours if you'd feel more comfortable, and since I have pants in this bag, you WILL have to change there later."
She leaned up slightly and kissed his cheek, grinning. "Afraid I'm going to attack you or something?" she teased, her tone completely light. "Maybe you'd taste good."

Rudeth reminded himself that Bianca likely was not actively trying to seduce him and took the shirt and vest, trying to focus a bit more on the soft feel of the fabric and how nice the clothing was than on Bianca herself.
Rudeth gave a somewhat forced laugh, which was probably a little louder than the situation called for. "Um, yeah, okay. I'll be back in just a second." Rudeth ducked clumsily into the bathroom, nearly running into the door frame in the process. He looked back and gave her a sheepish grin, then slipped into the bathroom and locked the door behind him.
He set the outfit down on the edge of the counter and splashed his face several times with cold water. He was never this awkward around girls, and Bianca should not have been any different. She had him try on clothes all the time, and this was no different. Except for the part where they were alone in her room. Other than that, it was exactly the same.
Rudeth stripped off his shirt and pulled on the one Bianca had designed. It was simpler than the things she usually dressed him in, but the influence was definitely Gypsy. The entire shirt was made of something soft and red, with carefully frayed edges. The vest was slightly more elaborate, made of something thick and brown that was likely meant to look like animal skin, with tiny blue stitching along the edges. He slipped them both on.
He started to leave, then glanced in the mirror and, as an afterthought, smoothed his hair back and combed out a few of the tangles with his fingers. Satisfied, he pushed the door open and stepped out the door, significantly more composed.
"So, what do you think?" he asked.

Aritha tilted her head to the side slightly, the earrings Rudeth had given her just barely hanging down her neck. She pursed her lips thoughtfully and reached out to ruffle his hair slightly. "Your hair looks better slightly messy. And I shouldn't have used blue for the embroidery. Probably should have used the same red I did for the shirt."
She stepped back and put a finger on her lips. "And real leather. Ah well. You still pull it off better than Zeph would. Blond just doesn't make a good gypsy," she grinned. "Maybe I'll add tassels to the next one."
Pulling out another outfit, she looked at the cloth in her arms, then at him and nodded. Handing it to him, she just smiled at him. "This is more like what I usually try with you. Still fairly simple, though."

Aritha had actually cleaned the room up completely for once, and even the bathroom so that she didn't risk hurting Zeph or something. Outside of dying his hair, anyway. The idea had her literally gleeful, and she was finding it nigh impossible to hold still.
She kept looking out the door to see if Jason had managed to persuade Zeph to come yet, and that the dye was in the bathroom on the sink, and that she had gloves and a towel that could be safely ruined with dye... Finally she forced herself to sit down.
That didn't work very well, so she dug out a shirt she'd been working on and the gold thread she'd spent forever getting dyed just right. Carefully threading a needle, she started putting an angled embroidery pattern around the edge of the tunic she'd been making for Rudeth. A dark purple, a little darker than his eyes, so that the gold shown all the more brightly.

Jason grinned to himself as he approached Aritha's dorm, with a well-distracted Zeph at his side. He gave his boyfriend's ear a small kiss as he raised one hand to knock on the door. "Anyone home?"

Joelle stretched out on her bed, propped up on one elbow as she watched her roommate pace around the room. Her fangs showed when she grinned and spoke up. "Calm down, Aritha. They'll get here soon. And the hair dye isn't going to walk away on us," she teased.
A voice called out from the other side of the door, and Joelle grinned as she got up quickly to answer it. "See? What did I say?" She opened the door and stepped back to let the two boys in.

Aritha put the embroidery away and jumped up to pull the boys into the room, Zeph especially. She knew there was no way he wouldn't get suspicious and that wasn't allowed to happen. Kicking the door closed once both were inside, she beamed at Jason.
"So, got him here..." she kissed Jason's cheek while holding onto a mage that was quickly realizing his boyfriend was actually capable of deceit.

Zephyros barely had time to realize Jason had knocked on the door before he was pulled inside and Aritha had him in her iron grip. He blinked rapidly and started trying to free his arm. It occurred to him that this was Jason's original intent and he froze, looking at Jason with... a shocked, or surprised expression. Jason had actually tricked him. Jason... had managed to trick HIM. Really?
It was probably easier when people didn't expect it...

Jason grinned, edging into the room after Zeph. He gave Aritha's roommate (What was her name? Joanna? He wasn't sure he'd ever been told it.) an acknowledging nod, then looked at Zeph, who looked quite shocked and surprised.
"What's that look for?" he asked innocently.

"You tricked me. I didn't even think you were capable of it," he said almost accusingly. "Now... w-why did you trick me?"
He looked around suspiciously, but couldn't find any clothes he was going to have to try on or any-... why was there a chair in the bathroom? Leaning against the sink like that? He tried to pull free again, getting a pretty good idea of what was in their minds. "Don't you have to have a cooperative victim for makeovers or something?"

Jason grinned wider and giggled. "'Co-operative' and 'victim' don't really belong in the same sentence, do they?" he asked. He took Zeph by his free wrist and tugged him gently toward the bathroom. "I think you either have to be one or the other."

"No, it's still victim. And if I fight, it's hard to actually do this right... you didn't answer me, by the way," he said, attempting to resist the pull at both of his wrists. "What's going on?"

"Hmm..." Jason looked at the two vampires with a sly grin, not letting go of his boyfriend's wrist. "Should we tell him now or let him find out for himself?"

Aritha looked at Zeph thoughtfully. "Well, he might be a little more cooperative... And that would make it easier."
She grinned as Zeph stopped fighting, panting heavily and just letting them drag him. It made it much easier, since while she was much stronger than him, he was still strong enough to make it a decent fight. "What do you think, Joelle?"

"Hmm... it'd definitely be a lot less messy if he was cooperative," Joelle replied, lending a hand in dragging the mage into the bathroom. She laughed as she looked down at Zeph and answered his question. "We're dyeing your hair. You'll have to wait and see what color," she giggled.

Zephyros planted his feet and leaned back until he was given the answer, and Aritha jerked forward on his arm enough to overbalance him. He staggered forward and froze in the bathroom doorway with everyone but Joelle behind him, leaning against the door frame to use it as leverage. Looking around the room while Aritha and Jason pushed against his back, and swearing he could feel the wood splintering under his fingers, he remained braced until he saw the package of hair dye and grinned.
Stepping forward and to the side quickly, he made sure he was ready to catch the two before they hit their head or something, but grinned as they stumbled forward. "I probably wouldn't have fought so hard if you'd just told me," he teased.

Jason yelped in fright as he toppled forward when Zeph suddenly moved away -- high heels were especially dangerous to fall in. He smiled as Aritha's roommate -- Joelle, that was her name -- moved quickly forward to catch him. He grinned as he carefully steadied himself and looked over at Zeph. "Oh, but suspense is fun!"

Zeph had managed to catch Aritha, since Joelle moved to rescue Jason, and set her upright. Ducking her fist and remembering very clearly how he'd felt last time she'd given him a friendly knock over the head, he just grinned at them. "Not when you're afraid you might be made a fool of, but if all you're going to do is let Aritha put green on the edges of my hair, I guess I can allow that."

"Who said anything about just the ends?" Aritha asked sweetly. She grinned as Zeph tried to duck out the door and pulled him back, putting him in the chair.
"Relax, Zeph, I'm not going to dye your entire head. It wouldn't look very good."

Zephyros squawked slightly when Aritha grabbed him, trying to get free before she told him that he WASN'T about to have all of his hair turned green. "No, it wouldn't and if you do that to me, so help me Aritha I'm going to dye your hair four different colors that all clash horribly," he threatened.
Then he looked at Jason. "And I'll find a good revenge for you, too. Just watch if I don't."

Aritha's hands flew to her hair protectively as she glared at her friend. "Alright, I won't even consider it, but that means you have to hold very still so that I don't mess up."
Pushing him into the chair, she slowly tipped him back. "Joelle, could you help me get his hair wet? This faucet isn't going to be as handy as I thought." She looked around for the shampoo she'd set nearby. Zeph usually kept his hair clean, but it was always best to make absolutely sure.

Joelle nodded and moved to do as she was bidden, cupping the water in her hands and pouring it over the parts of Zeph's hair that the stream from the faucet missed. She ran her hands lightly through his hair as she worked, making sure not to miss a strand. Zeph had really nice hair.
She looked up at Aritha, wondering aloud, "So what are we doing, if not his whole head? Streaks? Ends?"
