>Head into the clothing store.
>...how much are we capable of shifting around our third eye and the heart-shaped tentacles that go along with it? The hearts might be passable as accessories, but it'd probably be ideal if we could mostly keep them hidden under our clothes. Hmm, we can't just have a third eye bulging out our shirt, is the main problem. Perhaps cutting a hole into the back of a shirt pocket? Is it realistic to have the eye shifted down more around our waist long-term? Of course, these methods would make it almost impossible to use, compared to having it simply underneath a light jacket we can unzip... that might be easier.
>On the flipside- if we have it placed in a shirt pocket, it would be nearly invisible other than a bulge, but it's possible to see through less dense fabric a bit when it's right up against your eye. Could we get any meaningful mindreading done with that level of obscuring on our third eye's line of sight?

>There are aisles of clothes organized by type. Many people are browsing.

>...how much are we capable of shifting around our third eye and the heart-shaped tentacles that go along with it?

>You could try to move your third eye a little, but it would be quite uncomfortable if it has to be away from its natural position for a prolonged period of time. The tentacles, on the other hand, could be easily compressed against your skin without much issue. Though you'd personally prefer them to hang free as much as possible. Of course, you may not have much of a choice...
>You think moving your third eye to your waist would feel very awkward and uncomfortable. It's honestly not meant to sit there...
>You think a jacket might be a simple solution, though the act of unzipping might be obvious.

>On the flipside- if we have it placed in a shirt pocket, it would be nearly invisible other than a bulge, but it's possible to see through less dense fabric a bit when it's right up against your eye. Could we get any meaningful mindreading done with that level of obscuring on our third eye's line of sight?
>If your third eye can see it, that is, at a minimum, make out a silhouette, you should be able to read it. You've had it read someone through fog before, as well as a few times in darkness, so a lighter fabric shouldn't be too different you think.
>Of course, having fabric pressed right against your eye might irritate it after prolonged contact.

>"So... see anything you're interested in?" Sanae asks.
>_


//Since I have a feeling someone might be confused by this, allow me to clarify: Satori's third eye can "see" something, regardless of light level, as long as there is no completely opaque object (for instance, a trenchcoat or wall) obscuring its line of sight.

>"Hmm..." Sanae taps her chin, "Maybe we can disguise it as a corsage or something? Though then again, it'll always look like you're going to a prom or something..." she frowns a bit.

>Can we comfortably have our third eye most of the way lidded for prolonged periods of time? So we could keep it in a pocket without it rubbing against fabric or anything. Well, it should be okay so long as it's not wide open.

>You note where the shoe section is, before starting to browse for shirts.
>You eventually come across a style of t-shirt with a pocket on the left side of the chest, close to where your eye would sit. The fabric seems to be a less dense one as well.
>The shirt comes in a variety of colors as well. You see white, light blue, pink, red, light green, and yellow versions. All priced the same, at ?1800

>You find a longsleeve version with the same color variety as well, but it's a bit more expensive, at ?2200

>You also find a V-neck version, same colors, at ?2000

>Sanae seems to be looking at t-shirts with patterns and graphics on them.

Okay, yeah, we don't have enough money to spend on superfluous things like a hat (SADLY). Just some clothing for us and Sanae is gonna take off a notable chunk of the funds, and god only knows how huge of a portion it'll take to rent somewhere to stay. We can't sleep in an alley for a month, no matter how much money it'd save... then there's food.

>Take the shoes and look for somewhere we can try stuff on. If we do, go ahead and make sure stuff is comfortable.
>Whether that goes well or not, go find Sanae after and see how she's doing.

>You grab the shoes and soon find an area labeled "fitting room"
>You take a moment to remove the trenchcoat. Your third eye contracts from the sudden influx of light.

>You try on the shirt, testing how it fits over your eye with your tentacles compressed to your body. It's not uncomfortable, for the most part. You would still need to modify the area around your eye slightly, perhaps by cutting the back of the pocket out to give it more room.
>The shoes are a perfect fit.

>After changing back and placing the trenchcoat back on, you leave the changing room to look for Sanae, only to nearly collide with her.
>"Sorry!" she says.
>You notice she's carrying a lot of clothes...
