Stranger in a Strange Land 3
The was nothing more rewarding after a night of amazing sex, than to be able to sleep in the following morning and that was exactly what Aria had done. It wasn't as if she had much choice in the matter given that her body just up and quit on her and she was sleep before her head hit the pillow, curled up tightly against Bazzer. Her dreams no longer consisted of thoughts of this world but now the world she'd come from. She dreamed of cars, her kids at school, her family and her apartment. They all swirled around her head making it seem to her almost as if none of it was real. When she woke up the next morning, she almost felt like that really was the case. That this world was becoming more and more home to her because where she thought she was from didn't really exist.

Climbing out of bed, she shook that thought from her head, knowing it was just silly to even put something like that out there. She was very aware of her home, her real home and that this place was certainly not it. Besides if she ever had any doubts all she had to do was say something strange in front of Bazzer and he'd get that puzzled look and she would know. Coming out of the bathroom, Aria sat herself down at Bazzer's desk, looking around for something to write with as well as something to write on. It took a while since she wasn't sure what she was looking for and almost wished she just has a pen but managed to find something to mark paper. Immediately she began to write down everything that came out of her head, everything she knew was true from her own world, just so she'd never again question what was real and what wasn't.

"Good," it made Bazzer happy to see her so happy. He enjoyed a good book too, but usually on a rainy day with nothing much to do, not like Aria seemed to, which was all the time. "Why don't we go upstairs and see what you have until dinner is brought up?" he suggested. "You're welcome to bring a book or two with you, if you'd like," he added with an amused smirk. He had competition. Definitely. That was okay, he could compete with a book.

Offering her his arm, he nodded, "There is a picnic tomorrow that some friends are holding in the park. Perhaps we could go and you could meet people and walk around?"

Aria could really put a cap on her happiness right now. Being in a room surrounded by books, all of them talking about things she'd never heard of was just too much to ignore. She wanted to sit there and just read, fill her head with all new knowledge of this new world she was living in. "Okay sure, I am curious to know what they look like. I bet they're pretty," She smiled grabbing a book from the desk quickly before coming back to him. He offered so she was definitely going to take him up on it. If she could have she would have taken a whole stack but settled for one. "Thanks, I was going to try and sneak one before you said something," she laughed before taking his arm with her free hand.

She was in her own little world for a moment before he started to speak and she smiled. "Sure, I suppose I'm going to have to get out of his place eventually right?" The thought of meeting people did have her a bit nervous, reminding herself to find that etiquette book if there was one. "You think you could well, teach me some customs when it comes to meeting people. I have a feeling it's a much more proper thing here when where I'm from meeting people is very casual,"

"I thought they were," Bazzer agreed, though he rarely paid much attention to the style and such of women's dresses. He simply liked them. They were pretty on ladies and that was enough for him. The nice thing about the tailor was that he made sure they were the proper colours for a lady and cut as well, so there was no need to worry about fit or not suiting someone.

"Indeed," he replied, amused as they headed up the stairs, "And I could. Really, simply remaining quiet and if they ask where you're from say that you are from south of the Grace river. If they press, simply say the town is called Chicago," that being where she was really from. "I will admit, geography is not a subject emphasized outside of this area, so most people's grasp of it south of that river is tenuous at best," he led her to her room and opened the closet where five new dresses now hung.

"Well I trust your opinion," she smiled as she found herself excited to see these dresses. She could only imagine what they would look like not to mention the thought of having something that really fit just her appealed to her greatly. It as not everyday that something was made just for her and she only hoped that if she did make it back to Chicago that she could take them back with her. Aria didn't know it for sure yet but she was pretty sure she was going to become pretty attached to them.

She listened as he told her to stay quiet, the feminist in her not being thrilled about that but she didn't want to make a bad impression. Even though this wasn't her world, they were friends of Bazzer and she didn't want to make him look bad. "South of Grace River, got it," She nodded with a smile. "So if I say I'm from Chicago no one will be able to call me on it, got it," She nodded as they entered her room. Seeing the beautiful new dresses in her closet she gasped. "Oh my god, they are so beautiful," She reached into the closet and ran her hands over the dresses just wanting to strip down and try them on right then.

It wasn't that he wanted her quiet because she was a woman or something, but because he was worried she would say something about the strange world she claimed to come from on accident. He wasn't entirely certain that he believed her, but the place seemed fascinating and she certainly believed it. That was enough for him not to mock it, but he didn't want her mocked or ridiculed either to her face or behind her back.

All the dresses were of a fall and winter weight, she would need more of course, but this was a good start for the moment. Each was matched to make her skin glow. "I'm glad you like them," Bazzer blushed softly. "You should try them on. I can call the maid..." he knew nothing of women's clothing really or how to help her dress. Going to the pull cord, he tugged it to summon her.
