Nadya's gaze fell to her lap, playing her fingers along the stitching of her pants as she waited and listened. Raven perhaps wasn't as open of a book as some girls but she was easy enough to read when it came to Tobi. It was the actions, the forethought, the emotion behind it all that Nadya had seen that night when Raven had patched her up. To think about someone when they weren't around, to care enough to be sure they ate, to be hurt if they do or say something, and to defend them over and over again despite even if they aren't right. That was care beyond a friend, that emotion rooting of a crush that would lead into something more if allowed to. Tobias didn't always understand what it was he did, how actions and words could be taken, which was why Nadya kept very insistent that he not tell anyone about their own activities. No one would understand the turmoil and only see it at face value. Nadya wasn't sure if she'd care if Raven's crush grew into something more and take over such activities with Tobias but the thought right now of a wolf trying to enter a pack of felines did make her skin crawl.
Her attention snapped up to Raven when she spoke again and shrugged. "I notice as much as any other girl would, especially since he's my pack, what he does concerns me...who he hangs out with." She didn't deal with a Hunter for nothing. If he got in trouble, mixed with the wrong crowd, then she would have to do damage control with Azzy and remind him of their little deal. But again she was left in silence though momentarily when Raven went to get the other shirt. Nadya glanced back to the dressing room, hearing Alexis rustling inside hopefully taking her advice and dressing in the outfit option she had given. As long as the fox-girl wore something Nadya picked out she'd call it a success and hopefully over time Alexis' nervousness about the whole clothing thing will fade and they can take another trip sometime in the future.
Raven didn't have to tell Nadya twice about picking out her own clothes. She slipped quickly from the table and made a beeline for the opposite side of the store. Nadya had been in the store a good while before Raven and Alexis entered so had had plenty of time to mentally pick out everything she wanted. Even though Raven had told her she didn't need to worry about the quantity there was a boundary that she wasn't willing to step over. Nadya wasn't afraid that Raven would say no, rather, she didn't want to feel like it was beyond payment for helping with Alexis and stepping into feeling like she was in Raven's debt. Nadya returned with a corset top, pair of jeans, a dress, and a pair of shoes. "No outfit is complete without shoes." She smirked and placed her chosen items on the table she had been sitting on.
"See, I told you you look good." Nadya looked smug from Alexis' comment, eyeing Raven to see if a compliment from someone she trusted would make a difference this time. "And you should get that outfit too, Alexis. A nice pair of converse or boots will go with it. Raven says we can come back again another time to get you more stuff." Sure Raven may not have said that but Nadya doubted the wolf would correct her. "I've got to get going and I think we made good progress today. You found out what size you are and what colors look good on you."
