Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail

"So, everyone ready?" Mira asked to the group of girls around her.

She got several excited nods and one less than happy one. Obviously, Diana was the only one not looking forward to this trip even though she was the focus of attention. Along with her, Wendy and Lisanna would be coming to help Diana choose some nice clothes. The dragoness had tried to object, saying that her jeans, jacket, and sports bra were enough but Mira wasn't having any of it.

They weren't just going to look for a dress, oh no, if Mira had her way Diana would end up with several cute outfits. It also helped that Diana had brought nearly 50K jewels since she didn't want to end up short by chance. That alone could pay for enough to supply all of Fairy Tail's girls.

"Then let's go," she cheered as she spun on her heel and started walking away from the girl's dormitory, Fairy Hills.

As they walked she listened to Lisanna and Wendy ask Diana a few questions.

"So what kind of dresses do you like?" Wendy asked.

"I'm … not sure," Diana responded.

"Well, then what colors do you prefer?" Lisanna asked next.

"… Blue," Diana said softly.

'Hmm … blue could work, especially if she showed her right eye. Well, we can try several colors and see which she likes most,' Mira thought as they soon arrived into town. She guided the group to a series of outlet like shops, all specializing in a variety of women's apparel.

"So dress first?" Mira asked as she glanced back at the other girls.

"First?" Diana mumbled with worry.

"Of course," Mira replied with a grin. "First a dress, then some knew jeans and shirts, and then a bikini."

'And maybe some lingerie for good measure,' she mentally added even as her cheeks darkened slightly. Oh she was going to have so much fun with this!

"B-bikini?" Diana asked in a squeak.

Mira nodded as she looked at the girl, noting how both Lisanna and Wendy were looking Diana up and down as they tried to imagine it. Who could blame them, no one could deny that Diana was stunning. Tall, muscular but also curvy, a soft voice, and beautiful eyes. Honestly who wouldn't want to see her in some more … revealing clothing?

"Then let's start," Mira continued as she grabbed the blushing dragoness by the wrist and lead her into a small store that displayed several summer and spring dresses.

Wendy and Lisanna followed close behind, the group immediately dispersing to find a suitable dress. Mira let go of Diana to search for herself while Diana just sort of stood there, looking around in a mix of curiosity and confusion. 'Has she never even been into one of these stores?' Mira wondered as she glanced at Diana from time to time.

After a few minutes of searching the girls convened around the dragoness, each holding a dress that they liked. Mira had a red dress that tied around the neck with an open back, sleeveless, and snuggly followed the body. Lisanna had a yellow one that was strapless with several flower designs on it. Lastly was Wendy's pick, being a somewhat smaller, spaghetti strap, dark blue dress that had small, white lilies designed onto it.

"So, take these and try them on," Mira instructed as they handed the dresses to her and pointed her in the direction of the changing rooms.

Diana took them with a shy nod before she walked off, the 3 following until they stopped at the small waiting space.

"So, which one do you think she'll want?" Lisanna asked as she took a seat on a small chair.

"Who knows, this is her time first getting one," Mira replied as she looked around.

"I just know she'll look great in whichever she chooses," Wendy added as she sat beside Lisanna.

"That's true," Lisanna agreed with a chuckle. "Might give some of the boys a heart attack though."

That earned a round of giggles, the thought of Wakabe passing out from a nosebleed coming to mind. They kept making small jokes until the sound someone approaching drew their attention. They turned to see Diana wearing the red dress, the skirt ending around her knees. It accented her bust well with a somewhat deep V and displayed her toned body for all to admire her curves.

"Wow," the girls said together as they walked up to Diana, the latter blushing as she glanced away.

"Is … is it ok?" she asked shyly as she clasped her hands behind her back, making her look even cuter.

"It's great," Mira said as she looked her up and down. "But you'll need to turn around for us to get a full view."

Diana nodded slowly as she turned for them, for the first time letting them see her back. There, in the middle of her shoulder blades, was Fairy Tail's mark. The coloration was odd, unlike their marks which were a single color, Diana's had a dark blue coloration with black borders. Before Mira could comment on it Diana finished her turn, looking back at Mira as she waited for the final verdict.

"Well, it looks good but what do you think?" Mira asked her as she took a step back.

"I like it but … it's breezy," Diana replied with rosy cheeks.

"Oh can you get any cuter!" Mira cooed to a chorus off giggles.

"Hey!" Diana whined as she stamped her foot, the action causing a not too subtle jiggle of her breasts.

It was then that Mira realized something. Diana wasn't wearing any sort of bra, and she could see the slightest dots of flesh poking out through the dress. 'Oh Mavis, I'm staring,' she thought as a rosy shade took her cheeks as well. Diana looked at her questioningly for a moment before she traced Mira's eyesight. Her blush deepened as she gasped while her arms covered over her chest.

"Mira!" Diana squeaked as she half-turned. "Why are you staring!?"

"Staring at what?" Wendy asked innocently as she and Lisanna looked back and forth.

"Diana's umm … not wearing a bra," Mira answered as she looked at them rather than stay staring. It didn't take long before both snapped their gaze to the blushing dragoness, their cheeks beginning to darken as well.

Diana made a small 'eep!' sound as she darted back into the changing rooms. The 3 stayed watching for a few moments before they finally shook off the momentary stun. 'Forget the boys having a hard time, can we handle it?' Mira wondered as they waited for Diana to come back in the next dress. Hopefully this time they could keep themselves in check rather than ogle her.

"They looked bigger without the sports bra," Lisanna murmured as she glanced at her feet.

Wendy and Mira nodded in agreement. 'Definitely getting her a bikini,' Mira thought as her evil little smile made itself known. Wendy and Lisanna noticed, both slightly shuddering as they looked away.

"Mira …" Lisanna said in a cautious voice. "… What are you thinking?"

"Hm? Oh, don't worry about it," Mira replied sweetly even as Lisanna shuddered again.

They stayed quiet for a few minutes until Diana arrived wearing the strapless yellow dress. It hung a little low over her bust, teasing the view as the slightest bit of smooth skin pressed up and over the cloth. The dress was looser than the red one so as to not draw too much attention to her lean waist and rounded hips before falling along the contours of her legs. Altogether, the dress looked far more casual, as if she was about to stroll along a park and meet up with some friends.

"Ooh," Lisanna murmured as she stepped closer to get a better look.

"The flowers look nice," Wendy commented as she stepped around Diana.

"How do you like it?" Mira asked as she looked the dragoness up and down.

"It's nice but a little tight," Diana replied as she softly pulled at the cloth containing her chest.

"Hmm … looks like it," Lisanna agreed with a slight nod.

"Ok then, go change into the last one," Mira said as she stepped back.

Diana nodded as she turned and left without another word.

"I guess petite just doesn't work," Lisanna mumbled beside her.

"True," Mira replied as she looked at some of the other dresses. "Not as busty as most of the Fairy Tail girls but definitely need a dress that can handle a generous amount of curves."

They were about to continue when Diana reappeared, this time wearing the dark blue dress Wendy picked out. It gently flowed along her body, the skirt starting above her waist and billowing out until it ended mid-thigh. The white lilies complimented the silvery ends of her hair and eyes, while the darker blue played into her jet black hair and her usual look, the top just barely showing the roof of her cleavage. Overall it was more innocent and cuter, the look coming together as Diana softly smiled.

"You look … gorgeous," Wendy praised first as she stepped closer to get a better look.

Diana blushed as she lightly rested a hand against her collarbone. "R-really?" she asked timidly.

"Definitely," Lisanna and Mira agreed as they stepped around Diana to get a full look.

"So do you like this one?" Mira asked once she was satisfied with her observations.

Diana nodded as she smiled at Wendy. "It's perfect."

Wendy hoped excitedly. "I's so happy that you like it," she said as she beamed up at the Vector mage.

"Alright then," Mira said with a clap. "Looks like its settle. Get changed and we'll head to the next store."

"Okay," Diana replied as she went back to the changing room.

"So what's next?" Lisanna asked her as she watched Diana's form disappear.

Mira only smiled, an evil aura radiating off her making Lisanna pale as she stepped back.

"Just the necessities…"

'Ok, we have her dresses, some new jeans, a few shirts, skirts … even some lingerie,' Mira thought as she recited the list of items so far obtained. They'd been traveling from store to store as they helped Diana pick out her clothes. The underwear had been the hardest, the dragoness trying at every chance she could to avoid any specialty stores as she cited that she didn't need anything, the little liar.

Mira had gotten her to admit that she only owned sports bra and boringly plain panties, such as the all too innocent white ones she had on now. Mira and Lisanna had to practically drag the girl off her feet into a shop. Only Wendy sided with her but Mira wasn't going to let it slide. Then they made the discovery that Diana only bought sports bras was because she'd never been shown how to wear regular ones.

That had been interesting to handle but Diana was a quick learner and managed to tie them herself after a few tries ... more or less. Lastly was just getting her to actually keep the clothes she tried. She wouldn't even consider buying anything lacy, regardless of how sexy it might have made her look. In the end Diana went with mostly what Wendy brought her. Colorful panty and bra sets with some patterns, the most daring being a pair of small booty shorts that revealed some of her very … curvy rear.

'All that's left is a swimsuit,' Mira thought as she glanced behind her. The three younger girls were happily chatting together as they followed behind her while enjoying some ice cream cones. It was Mira's way of thanking Diana for indulging her in the search for 'proper' undergarments. Diana had a rocky road cone, Wendy with cookies and cream, and lastly Lisanna with a simple vanilla. Mira herself hadn't really felt like getting one but was happy to watch the girls laugh and smile together.

Just seeing it and how Diana was slowly starting to trust others made Mira feel warm inside. Diana was starting to grow out of her self-imposed isolation, to grow as a person, and to truly become part of the family that is Fairy Tail. She smiled happily at the thought, her gaze focusing on Diana's smile making the faintest blush come to her cheeks.

"Mira?" Diana asked as she noticed the look.

Mira shook her head a bit as she blinked at Diana. Luckily Wendy nor Lisanna had noticed it but Diana stayed looking at her with a raised eyebrow.

"Oh, I'm fine," she replied to ease off the look. "Just thinking about which store to go to next."

"There's more?" Diana asked with a mopey look.

"Oh, don't make such a face. It's just one swimsuit,'' she answered as she raised her hand to stop Diana from objecting. "And no, a sports bra and shorts does not count as one."

Diana just gave her a quivering lip as she tried a puppy face. 'And she wonders why I started calling her puppy,' Mira mused as she turned and resumed walking, their destination already in sight. It was a small store, one of few in Magnolia that offered a more 'interesting' selection in swim wear. These swimsuits weren't just for show either. They were made with a more study material and some magical enchantments to survive constant use. Cana was actually a usual frequenter for this store since she was almost always in a bikini top.

The group quickly finished their ice creams before they entered the store and stood at attention as Mira turned to address Diana.

"Now, please try and find something you like," Mira instructed as she gestured to the store. "There's bound to be something you'll like here and try to avoid any one pieces."

"Why?" Diana asked nervously.

"Because it wouldn't look anywhere near as good as a bikini," Mira replied easily. That and the thought of Diana at the beach in 2 small pieces of spandex was a sight that she didn't want to miss. "Right girls?" she asked Lisanna and Wendy.

Both nodded vigorously, the image of Diana in just her underwear still likely at the front of their minds.

"Ok," Diana sighed in defeat as she walked down one of the isles, her eyes scanning for anything that caught her attention.

They each dispersed after her to see if they could find anything as well. Mira roved over some suits but knew that Diana would never go for the tube tops or high rise bottoms. She kept looking for a few minutes until she found a simple, red bikini set, the top being a common triangle cover with cheeky bottoms to better display her athletic build.

'I think this'll work,' she mused as she walked over to the changing stalls where Diana was already waiting along with Wendy, a suit in her arms.

"Did you already find one?" she asked as she looked at the 2 dragonesses.

"Wendy picked this one," Diana answered as she adjusted the suit in her arms but Mira couldn't tell what style it was other than that it was black and blue.

"Ok, then here's another one," Mira said as she handed the red bikini to her. "Just put on the one you like," she added, knowing that Diana wanted to finish this as soon as possible.

"Ok," Diana replied as she left to change, her frame disappearing down the changing hall.

"Oh, did she already go to try some out?" Lisanna asked as she arrived with a white and yellow bikini.

"Yep," Mira quipped back as they waited around.

"Darn," Lisanna replied as she left to return the suit.

They waited for a few minutes before Diana returned but sadly, not in the red one. Instead she was wearing the black and blue bikini. The top was a blue with black lines, in a halter type to mostly cover her breasts, along with a simple bikini bottom that tied at the sides. 'Well, at least the bottom is a little more daring,' Mira mused as she looked Diana up and down. She guessed that since Wendy and Diana were technically the closest in mindset, it would make sense that they shared similar tastes. More innocent and simple, not at all trying to draw attention to themselves.

"Well?" Diana asked nervously since Mira had been silent for some time.

"It's cute," she replied with a satisfied smile. "Are you getting it?"

Diana nodded shyly as she glanced at Wendy, apparently expecting a last word.

"I think it's great," Wendy replied warmly as she held her hands behind her back.

"Ok," Diana said as she went back to change out. Just as she left Lisanna reappeared.

"Where's Diana?" she asked as she looked around.

"You just missed her,"' Wendy answered making the take-over mage gawk at her.

"Every time," Lisanna complained dramatically even as Mira and Wendy giggled at that.

It took a few minutes before Diana reappeared with her new suit in hand. They quickly took it to the registers, payed, and left the store. As the group walked quietly along Mira glanced to her side at Diana, the dragoness noticing her look and as she glanced back, all before giving her a tender smile.

"I had fun," she said gently as she looked to the others as well. "Thank you."

"Your welcome," Lisanna and Wendy cheered together.

Mira on her part bumped shoulders with Diana to get the girl's attention.

"You can always count on us," she said as smiled at the dragoness. "We're family after all."

Author's Rant: Oh the bonding, the teasing, and opening up. Usually my chapters are action and plot but this is nice too. Hope everyone enjoyed that.

Any feedback and thoughts welcome. I would really like to see if you all like these sort of slower and lighter chapters.

As always, a pleasure, Jbubu
