"Take me anywhere!" he smiled, holding on to him. "I wouldn't know where to start, so take me wherever you see fit!"
Like he'd stated before, Akanashi was not familiar to the insides of a castle, so taking him anywhere was perfectly fine. He continued to hold on to Sanada's sleeve, not wanting to get lost as the two made their way to the man's quarters

Sanada weaved through the halls of the palace, keeping a close eye for anyone that might either recognize the ningyo, or find it his apearance strange. Luckily the walk to his quarters was a short one, and they arrived without any direct opposition. Luckily. He pushed open his ornamented doors. "I know this may be a question you don't know the answer to, but just in case, do you know of any clothing style you particularly enjoy wearing?"
(sweet lord how did i forget about this o.o im so sorry)
The boy's eyes shimmered with admiration as he entered the room, not knowing what to look at first. Everything just felt new and interesting to him, from the furniture, to the colorful decorations that painted the walls. His head turned around when the other's voice rung out.
"Hm? Clothing style? Mmmm, i dont think i have one, i havent worn clothes before - it just isnt a necessity under water. Do you have anything in mind?" he said, after a short period of thinking. This one you gave me already feels pretty nice as it is"
What he was wearing at the moment was barely enough to cover him up, but judging from his words, he seemed to enjoy the loose fabric aspect of it

(It’s alright!)
Sanada glanced over his shoulder to see what the boy was wearing, nodded, then went back to sitting through his wardrobe. Most of his undershirts were made of soft fabric and plenty large enough for them to fit loosely on Akanashi’s shoulders. “Will this work?” Sanada handed one over.
Pants were another query less easily answered—the waistline was tailored precisely to the person wearing them, and the boy was notably slimmer than himself. And yet, if the shirt was long enough to cover everything that needed to be covered, perhaps pants weren’t immediately necessary?
Akanashi watched curiously as the other dug through his wardrobe, wondering what every single article of clothing in there looked like unfolded. Once the other handed him an undershirt, he gently unfolded it, looking it up and down, admiring the fabric as he slowly rubbed his fingers on it. He then took off what he was wearing and tried on the new one, checking himself out to see how it looked on him. It reached close to his knees, so pants could be ignored if they considered it
"I like it!" he chirped happily, continuing to look at himself. "Though i think there's still something missing?"
Looking at Sanada, he could tell there was a difference between the two of them.

“Good!” Sanada couldn’t help but smile at the boy’s delight as he gave him another once over to assess his updated appearance. “What do you think is missing?” He had to admit, the outfit was rather simple compared to Sanada’s. There could be a number of things Akanashi was referring to: the jewelry, pants, sandals, everything that made it a full outfit. “I’ll see if I can get it for you, whatever it is. It should be no trouble.”
"Hmmm," he went, continuing to check himself out. "I think i'm missing some pants"
While it was true that what he was wearing pretty much covered him down to his knees, it looked kind of out of place since it wasnt a dress. He could go as he was now but still, people would look at him weird.
His hair had dried off completely at this point, the stringy white curly mess flowing on his shoulders and giving him a very childlike appearance.
