PH: {{Looking at the screen}} Goddess, why is your armor so... err... uhm...

Ca: {{Finishing for Paul}} skimpy?

PH: Yeah, it doesn't look like it provides enough protection in combat.

GC: Well kids, there's more to armor than just it's protection. You also have to consider that it's very hot in Greece and mobility is also a factor. Ease of repair, comfort, weight...

Ca: {{Not convinced}} (She's hiding something.)

PH: {{Not buying it either}} (Yeah, like we can't tell. Right.)

GC: {{Gives up}} Ok, Ok! I wore it because it looked good on me! There! Happy Now?!? I admit it, I'm a slave to fashion!

Ca: Didn't it chafe?

PH: And get all icky and dirty?

GC: Of course! You don't see me wearing it anymore do you?

Ca: What about that one party Melissa threw--

GC: Except for that one time. It was a special occassion.

PH: And so you wore that armor because it was trendy?

GC: Sure. Back in those days, growing up without parents, peer approval was everything.

Ca: {{Back to the computer}} Wow, there's a DoN costume going for $9000!

GC: What?!? And mine's only $4050?!? Where are my loyal followers? Why hasn't the alarm been raised throughout New Cirra? This cannot be allowed to happen!

PH: It says here that Judge Terror bid $1050 on it.

GC: That's the spirit! A true and loyal worshipper! What about you two?

Ca: Err, I don't get paid as well as the Judge.

PH: I'm saving my money for one of those George Foreman grills.

GC: {{Glares at Paul}}

PH: Well, what am I going to do with imitation armor?!? I can't wear it, I don't stick out in the right places!

GC: Good point. Which leads me to question why the Judge bid on it in the first place...

Ca: I'm sure he was just trying to be a good follower, no matter what his gender.

GC: Ok. But what about you? You must have some savings. Show your loyalty to me!
