Summer outfit

“...I REQUIRE A SUMMER OUTFIT. I WANT TO ENJOY THE SUMMER JUST AS MUCH AS OTHER LAND DWELLERS…”

The words being said by Poseidon, were clear and loud.
“Land dweller…?” Winter tilt their head. Confused.
“Land Dweller..?” They repeated, “Who’re you ca- ah yeah… I guess...  So you want a summer outfit, Poseidon…”

Winter, not really being much of a summer scarfox, wasn’t really sure what would be good for a summer outfit.
“Summer outfit… Summer outfit… Sure we can find you something. Can’t promise it’ll be… ‘cool’ or anything. If you couldn’t tell… i’m not much for summer… Though i hear that it’s best to wear light clothing, stuff that catch the breeze, to keep you cool”

Winter lead Poseidon around, trying to find what they considered a decent shop or place to get clothes, that would meet the needs of this scarfox.
Rambling away about how they’re not entirely fond of summer and that they find it difficult themselves to even find a decent way to enjoy the summer style clothing.

“So….  I’ve never really come across a god before so… uhm… i’d rather not mess this up. Do we go based on your colours? Ocean things..? I’m sure i might be able to find something? ….somewhere has to have something that is at least worth trying on at least. I mean, as i’ve said, i’m really not good at this sort of stuff, i do not dress for summer… usually just winter..” Winter continued rambling, till eventually coming across a location that may or may not have at least something that could be decent enough for Poseidon.

Winter went through various different things, accessories, shirts, various sunglasses, hats.
“...there’s some fish themed things… like… uhm… I dunno… I know i said breezy! But what about this!” They turned and held up a top with a rather cute looking fish design on it.

Seeing the reaction from the God, winter sighed, “obviously not then…” Looking at the top themselves. “...yeah, don’t really think this is your sort of thing… might get it myself..” They said, setting the top aside, and continuing to go through the various things.

Continuing to try and talk while looking through Items, “So what sort of things are going on in the summer…. What’re you doing…” Winter asked curiously.

“I’ve seen various others swimming… cooking… treasuring hunting… all sorts.. I may have lost a few things, myself. And many have helped me find the things i’ve been missing. With there being so much going on. I’ve decided it a requirement that i must join in.”

Winter nodded listening to Posiedon. “Interesting.. So are many scarfoxes helping you find a summer outfit? Have you had other options? Are you seeing as many as you can, to decide which you like best? Or is it more along the lines of having multiple options for different days?”
“Looking for the perfect summer outfit.”

Winter stopped, and took a breath. “Well… you’ve probably come to the wrong scarfox. I can certainly try, but there is no guarantee it will be anything good compared to what others come up with.”

“I’m sure it will be fine.”

“How… about i just pick out lots of different things and you can try them on, and then we can go from there to decide what’s best… That seems like a good idea doesn’t it..” Winter mumbled.

The idea of looking for a summer outfit, was not something Winter clearly did, not something they clearly enjoyed. Being more used to the colder months, being more used to wrapping up and being cozy or enjoying the wet weather.

With constantly having ice at their heels, the warm weather was not something they enjoyed, the heat a constant bother,making them feel dull and tired, almost wanting to hide away and sleep for the warmer seasons and only wake up when it was cold.
Maybe that would be something he’d consider for the future, not everyone could enjoy summer. Some liking it better than others and some not entirely enjoying it.
But the different seasons were certainly enjoyed in different ways.
Mostly winter, enjoyed the variety of food and drinks that changed with the seasons, what became available, but as the weather changed, the less they’d enjoy of that season.
Preferring to go out later in the day, when it was hopefully cooler.

“How did i even end up doing this?” Winter asked now staring at a large selection of clothing, “...hm… I’m thinking blues… Why wouldn’t i think of blue being a good colour for you… It’s a fantastic colour.”
Soon enough pulling up a light shirt, a pale blue that faded into white, with small gradient shells in pattern on the fabric.
“I think this is a you sort of thing.” Winter said, handing over the shirt, and began searching through others. “Or even this” they said, handing over another.

“But you’re gonna need accessories to go with that...  Not sure a hats gonna work.. Therse… a lot of horns on your head, and i am not sure how-.... ...sunglasses? Necklaces? C’mon help me out! I’m not good at this!”

Poseidon shook their head, “the choices are yours. I asked for your help.”

Winter looked around once again, and picked up a pair of shades, gradient in grey and a candy floss pink. “...if summer is about spending your time at the beach and in the ocean.. Then you’re gonna need this as well…” they said, as they also picked up a necklace with a wooden fish charm hanging from it. 

“...I suppose these will do.”

“At least try them on. You can’t just tell me they’ll do and not at least try them on to see how if looks put together!” Winter huffed, “i’m aware it’s not perfect.. But i don’t believe in perfect! If every snowflake is different in structure, then there is no such thing as perfect! Try them on!!”

With Poseidon finally trying on the selected outfit, the shirt, sunglasses and necklace.

“Are they comfy? Do you like them?” Winter grinned.

With a nod of confirmation “And this will help me enjoy the summer like all the other land dwellers” Poseidon looked at Winter.

“....I sure hope so.. We’ve been here hours… least thats what it feels like… But! I feel like i’ve done a good job helping you out! Never been good at picking out summer outfits. Anyway… Go, you have Summer to enjoy!” Winter laughed, leading Poseidon out before waving him goodbye.
