She briefly considered herself wearing the plugsuit or the Succubus outfits - hence the blush. She passed by the Waitress uniform without stopping, and the Bunnygirl costume was likewise not considered.
Two DID catch her eye and give her a momentary hesitation. The Maid costume wasn't the hentai version, it had more skirt than their Sailor fuku did. She thought it might be fun. The problem was that she didn't think she could quite pull off the role of villain-captured heroine with that.
The catgirl outfit was tight but looked kind of cute with the little ears and tail.
She knew that if she was going to convince sempai that she could be captured and forced to protect him against her friends, in playing out this little prank she WAS worried that one of them could nail him with a full force attack and bring the joke to a tragic end, that she had to be able to portray that role. Which in turn meant she had to look different.
She thought she had the mechanism down. She'd just wear the costume, transform to Sailor Saturn before meeting with her friends, then get hit with a fake attack. Fake attack, a lightball or something, and she detransforms to her costume.
The wafuku or traditional clothes were kind of nice too, Hotaru decided. There was a dark purple kimono with little lavender fireflies that particularly struck her fancy. Difficult to move around in that though.
The Nakoruru and Samurai Girl outfits were kind of interesting, but Hotaru really doubted either was her style. Likewise the leather catsuit with the spike heels was NOT going to be considered. If she was going to play a "bad girl" then she was going to play something a little more tame than THAT.
Hotaru continued on, only to glimpse something that brought her full attention to a display. When it penetrated as to what she was looking at, staring seemed to be the only valid option.
"Oh... my."
"Doo do doo do doo do do," sang Minako, crossing the busy street with the crowd. She was in her element. Shopping.
At the busy crosswalk, her step faltered halfway across. SOMETHING was sufficiently wrong that she could sense it. The crowd around her also faltered, or at least a good half of those pedestrians could apparently tell that there was a wrongness in the air.
"Heh heh heh heh," came an echoing voice through the skyscraper canyons. "So many pretties."
Minako frowned as the skies darkened and a power outage fell over the area. Even the cars that had been beeping just a moment ago went silent and still.
"BWAHAHAHA!" said the same lecherous voice as power lanced out.
Minako added her own input to a large number of female outraged voices as her undergarments abruptly appeared in midair a good three feet away and then sped off to a central point with what seemed like thousands of others.
"HAHAHAHAHA!" continued the lecherous voice. "I. AM. THE. POWER!!!"
"Our underwear was stolen by He-man?" asked an outraged schoolgirl in the crowd near Minako.
"I SHALL DESTROY THE WORLD, except that would also destroy the panties wouldn't it?" asked an old man, popping into existence atop the gathering mound of underwear. "That would never do. DESTROY. Not the innocent panties and bras and silky lingerie. I MUST. I don't think so."
The old man vanished. Which would have been more acceptable if the huge ball of feminine garments hadn't vanished with him.
