Honestly, it just doesn't stop, does it? Christine smiles down at the samples, because here are two new people for Jim to butter up, and really, all that charm shouldn't go to waste. The woman behind the counter gives Jim the same once over she gave Christine, but her eyes focus mostly on his pants that don't seem to fasten shut the same way all the pants she's even seen do. Her brow furrows, but she refrains from commenting on it. Anything that detracts from a sale is a bad thing.

"Well, you're free to give your opinions, of course," says the woman. "I'm sure you'll find our materials to be of the highest quality."

Christine looks over the samples with a critical eye. She's never really stopped to consider the different patterns in lace before, but now that she's here about to pay good money for it, she wants something that looks nice, even if Church barely notices in his rush to rip them off her. Men.

"I know lace takes quite some time to create. These are very fine examples of it." And of course Christine knows that the more lacework there is, the more expensive the piece will be. "But silk is such a lovely texture. What do you think, Jim? Should I get a mostly silk piece with only a bit of lace? Maybe on the side or as trim?"
