"Ah, okay." Lucy smiled. "Thanks for coming to get me, I would have stayed out there all night."

"Oh, fabric shopping," Hikaru said.

"It could be fun," Kaoru offered. It usually wasn't, but then they also didn't go often and when they did it wasn't with fun company.

"Our pleasure," Honey replied, grinning. "Now come on, we need to get inside."

"Could be," Liz said. She grinned. "I need to look through some good stores of silk, I like the idea of a silk tunic now."

"Okay, okay," Lucy said with a laugh, letting them steer her inside.

"Once we get back we know a few places," Hikaru said with a shrug. "Now, inside, it's dinner time and I'm starving."

"Dinner already?" Liz asked, looking up at them both. "Can't be that late already, can it?"

"It's a bit early for dinner, but it is after dark," Kaoru said with a shrug. "The clients all left already, so we thought we'd eat early and have some relaxation time."

"That's not a bad idea," Liz said, getting up. "Well, lead the way, then."

The twins led her inside as well, settling in at the table. It didn't take long for them to be served, and Lucy grinned. She had no idea what any of the dishes were but that was half the fun.

Liz was pleasantly surprised at the spread at the table, too, and was looking at some of the unfamiliar dishes curiously. This would be interesting indeed.

Dinner was fun; the hosts were relaxed around the two and didn't bother actively trying to entertain them, and ended up entertaining them with banter instead. Lucy was grinning through most of dinner.

Liz snorted quietly into her glass at least twice, and quietly snickered for the rest of the time. It was a treat to see the hosts when they weren't actually working.

"Wait a second," she broke in to a teasing threat exchange. "If you want to try to put Tamaki into a dress, it should at least be a good one."

While Tamaki did his best impression of a kettle at that, the twins snickered.

"We can make that happen," they chimed in with a grin. "And get pictures."

"I may or may not have a nice dress with me," Liz added, smirking. "It can happen."

"No!" Tamaki fumed, pouting, while the twins grinned, an evil gleam in their eyes.

"We could probably get you and Haruhi matching dresses, boss," they teased.

"Actually, I wanted Haruhi's opinion anyways," Liz said smoothly.

"My opinion?" Haruhi asked, blinking.

"Of course," Liz said. She grinned wickedly. "I wouldn't dream of putting Tamaki into a dress you didn't approve of."

Haruhi blinked. "I don't really... wear dresses," she admitted.

"Sometimes you do," Kaoru said. "You could pick one out just fine if you wanted."

"You don't wear dresses?" Liz asked, her attention completely diverted. "Because you don't care for them, or because you just haven't found many you like?"

"Both. I don't really care for most of the ones I see at the store," Haruhi said with a shrug. "Besides, these clothes are more comfortable." She pointed to her rather masculine attire.

"Would you rather a tunic and leggings?" Liz asked. "I'm sure I could design something for you, if you want." She grinned. "I've been looking for the excuse to design a new line, anyways, so you're not imposing at all."

"Um. Sure? If you want to," Haruhi said tentatively. "I mean, I'm not really sure what you mean, so you'd have to explain it a bit more." Because yes, Haruhi was that fashion deprived.

Liz's grin was positively giddy.

"Sure," she said. "Here, after dinner, come to my room, I'll show you my designs. Maybe tell me what you like and I'll put something together?"

"Alright," Haruhi agreed, smiling a bit. "If you're sure you don't mind."

"Trust me, I don't mind," Liz said. She grinned. "I'm sure I'll be able to find or design something you'll like. I might even have a few things with me that you can have, if anything catches your fancy."

"Okay," Haruhi agreed. "After dinner, then." She smiled. The rest of the club was too busy picturing Haruhi in a proper designer dress rather than supermarket stuff.

Liz smiled back and nodded.

"Alright," she said. Mentally, she was going through what she'd brought with her to see what might suit Haruhi.

Lucy was as well, because it sounded like this might turn into a girls night, and she wanted in.
