*In the time that Richard had been gone, Marie had created a new wardrobe for herself--one befitting an aristocrat of the present age. She could no longer wear her roccoco gown around Paris, as she got ridiculous stares and people thinking she was wearing a costume.
She came back out of the room in a dress cut in the latest style, the fabric a pale blue that complemented her skin and hair marvelously. She looked the part, and knew it*
"I am prepared, my dear Richard. Let us see what we discover, shall we?"

"Indeed, my queen."
*Richard looked her over and while he had appreciated the style she'd been accustomed to, had had to admit he fit in better this way. He should probably see about getting some trousers for himself, as he hadn't noticed much in the way of hose about town.*
"You looketh the part, your majesty."

*She beamed at Richard*
"Thank you. I've done my best to make sure I would blend in as smoothly as possible"
*She tilted her head to one side, appraising his attire*
"We should arrange for something for yourself, so you also blend in better."

*Richard's eyes glittered, as if daring her to mock him.*
"In the current fashion I would require, er, special tailoring."

"Oh, we should be able to afford that. At least, one set of clothing for when you wish to be more covert."
*She was still in mission-mode, and her tone was businesslike, though it had a tinge of helpfulness. If she'd been in modern times, she would have fit right in as a fashion designer*

"I do not wish to waste your time on my own trivial needs," *Richard said. Though he would, if offered, spend her money.* "No doubt you wish to enact your plan."

"Ah...yes. We can take care of that another time. Hopefully there won't be any fashion emergencies, hmm?"

"Let us trust so, your highness," *Richard said, waving her forward.*

*Nodding, she continued on her way* "Let us see to this Henry. "
