Re: [JMC_Blue_Dwarf] Drat - missed it!

"I'm looking for something a little more
respectable," Allie replied. She could sense that the
holo-model wasn't liking Allie's presense too much, so
she added, "But it looks beautiful on you, though,'
she said to Cubie.
"Thanks," Cubie grumbled.
"All right, let's get on with the show," Zack said
pleasantly.
Zack switched Cubie's clothes to a stunning green
shirt and pants set. "Here we have a lovely green
outfit. Long-sleeves and wide trouser legs. The low
cut neckline shows only a hint of the bosom for
elegant sexiness. The whole outfit would go great with
matching high-heeled shoes."
Cubie twisted, showing the outfit from the back.
Allie studied it. "I'll take it and two other pairs of
red and white."
"Marvelous," Zack commented. He turned Cubie off,
then headed towards the counter.
"And don't forget the matching shoes," Allie added,
taking out her credit cards.
