Yang let go and looked down. "Sorry about that...." she offered.

"Hahahaha~... D-don't worry about it~..." he let out the breath he had managed to suck in during Yang's hug, and took a moment to normalize breathing... "CH'HEM... Anyways, how about we finish up here... Then..." he considered it a moment... Then snapped his fingers, as an idea came to him. "Then let's do something you want to do. Really. All you gotta do is point the way and I'll go along with you. I'll even cover expenses if you want to buy something. It's the least I can do."
When he noted Yang about to object, he held up a hand "Hey, I stole your aura so much that I practically adapted to it's use. I need to make that up to you."

Yang quirked an eyebrow. "What I want to do?" she parroted in a confused voice.

.... Alex was unsure of what to make of the confusion... After a moment of confused silence, he decided to reword his offer. "Yeah. What you want. Do you have any stores you like to frequent? Eating places? Is there something you want to buy? Is there something you want to look at?" He tilts his head toward Yang in confusion. "I mean, we've been going around here getting stuff mainly for me. We should try to get some stuff for you too. At least that way we'd be even."
Believing his point to be made clear, Alex smiled, waiting for Yang's response.

Yang awkwardly bit her lip. "Yeah. There are a few things but I'd rather spend time with you," she weakly offered. The blonde was starting to blush slightly.

..............
Alex suddenly had the unique feeling that this scene had just gotten a whole lot more awkward.
..................
".... OKAY UM...." He quickly went back to looking around at clothes. His face looked slightly red. "I guess if you insist... Though, Honestly, I'd likely just take us to all kinds of geeky places, like game stores, merch, maybe get a new computer..." He looked to her. "Still... I offered that option to you at the very least and I guess I can just leave it up in the air. If you change your mind during, just let me know."
.............
I just want to spend time with you.
HE blushed even more. "Either way we'd be... Uh... 'spending time together' right?" HOLY CRAP WAY TO MAKE THIS EVEN MORE AWKWARD...
Still, at least he was honest. He got that out there.
Yang's... wants had more then surprised him. But..
He seemed to return them.

Yang blushed a bit deeper. "Thank you. After this shop you up for icecream or a movie?" Yang managed to squeak out.

"Ummm... Y-yeah... Sure! Ice cream or movies sounds good... I... wonder what's playing at the local theater..." The rest of the trip in the clothing store was spent in awkward silence while the two tried to recover their dignity from that maddening moment of embarrassment.
------------------------------
And it only just continued on as they left and went towards the Ice-cream parlor... At this point, it looked like Alex would have paid just about ANYTHING to have the bombastic and energetic Yang back. He knew how to handle THAT Yang. Or at least he had an idea. He had NO idea how to handle this new, blushing, and surprisingly demure creature now walking next to him. But of course, few could fault him. He never really HAD girls line up at his door looking to date him. It helped nothing that he didn't really try looking either.
As he and Yang walked along, the God-tier was still slightly red, shoulders hunched slightly as he kept his eyes wandering about... Deep down, he knew he had to say SOMETHING. But what? What could he say that could break the ice-?

Yang stayed quiet as a few million thoughts raced through her head. She bit her lip as she looked to the store signs.
"....So... Any games you like playing?" she offered weakly. The girl was unsure of how to talk to him.

Too many to list... And when he didn't answer back, Yang felt that the question had been somewhat shot down...
No. They needed something a bit simpler...
Alex, never once in his dreams, ever even IMAGINED that he'd be in such a position. Especially with YANG XIAO FUCKIN' LONG of all people... But the more he walked and saw her nervously bite her lip, the more he wanted to let her know that things would be alright... HE just needed some way to break the ice. Some kind of simple way. Small talk... Debate...
'Debate'...
.....
He smiled a bit, the thought coming to him.
"You're going on a very long journey."
?
"And for it, you want to bring along provisions and supplies you think might help you out either along the way or to curb the boredom. What would you take with you on this long trip?" He took a moment to think on this himself, so he could answer and provide an example for an answer. "Obviously I bring food and drink, and my void modus let's me carry that almost automatically anyway... But I'd probably also bring a book. Cause that's better for you then gaming all day isn't it? ... That's what I wanna say, but I'd still take the game, just in case I got bored enough. However, I'd also bring a ladder. Cause you never know when you might need a ladder~."
He looks to Yang. "What would you bring on your trip? Go ahead, be non-conventional if you want~."

Yang sighed. It wasn't what she was hoping for but hey it was something. "Food and drink are obvious. My gauntlets... Are we allowed to bring people along?" she replied with a question interrupting her own speaking.

Hmmm, he hadn't even considered that. "Well I didn't say you had to go alone, so I guess that option's open." He noted that her nervousness was only somewhat put aside now. Maybe debating wasn't EXACTLY what she was hoping for, but it was a good small step in the right direction at least. "I guess it makes sense you'd ask though. You have plenty of dependable friends to choose from for long trips and the like." Yeah, like Team RWBY. If she did go on a long trip, she would've been in good hands with ANY ONE of those girls, let alone all three of them.

"Then I would take my team. You don't know what kind of trouble you'll run into on an adventure. Books for Blake. Comics for myself. Cookies for Ruby. Tea for Weiss. Probably bring Zwei and food for him as well," She offered.

"Hahahahaha~. Cookies for Ruby~." Yeah that part definitely amused him. "Cute." He has his hands in his pockets now, considering a moment what to say next. Supposing Yang had a point, he decided to modify his earlier answer. "As for my own backup... Well..." It actually was a slightly tough answer now that he thought about it. "Well... I guess the obvious answer would be some of my friends from the game.... But... I dunno." ? Why?
"Hehehe... I'm kind of used to going off and doing my own thing. Kinda lone-wolf style... That's... How I've been for a long while. Guess I can only blame that on myself... I've always been kinda introverted and withdrawn...... Hehe.... even now, I always have to separate from the others and go off to do my own thing...
"But hey... That's how I first met you."

"If I was able to.... I'd probably attempt to steal you along for the adventure as well," Yang weakly offered.
