So he was wandering through town looking at the shops thinking about needing to fit when the hat changed in his hands to a cowboy hat.  He'd blink and stop in his tracks.  

"Whoa...."  

He didn't know why he was surprised since it was a magic hat.  But there it was.  He was going to have to break one of his normal rules, but he'd reach into the hat to pull out some current time period money before heading into a clothing store!

"Looks like it's got more than one sort of magic on its side." Rebecca catches up to Eric in time to notice the hat change.

Eric pulls out some silver coins as he enters the shop!

"Howdy, partner." The shopkeeper says without looking up from his paper, the bell ringing when the door opened.

"Howdy. We were hoping that you could help us find some more appropriate attire. Just got back from New York and I'm ready to be back into some proper clothes."

He'd say with a smile as he approached the counter while looking around.

"Yeah." Rebecca nods and joins him in the shop, looking around and what might be available for girls and hoping she won't cringe at everything she finds. This would have been exciting, under different circumstances.

She offers the clerk a polite but silent smile as she nods in agreement.

A lot of corsets, bonnets and dresses.

The man whistles.

"You sure are dressed mighty queer. I reckon fashion back east is beyond my ponderin'." He shows Eric all sorts of cowboy attire!

"Mighty queer indeed."

He said with a nod as he picked out some of the cowboy attire.

"So what's been going on in town? Any recent news of note?"

Rebecca listens like a good girl and goes over the selection, mentally cursing at the fact that corsets ever existed. Still, when in Rome, do like the Romans.

And ditch the evidence as soon as possible. Or burn it, depending.

He puts the paper down.

"You don't know? This is Billy the Kid's territory. I'd say keep your head down if yer smart."

"Billy the Kid?"

He'd pull off his hat and reach in to pull out a US Marshal's star.

"That does seem like something I'd like to hear more about."

Oh god. Eric, no. Where's a squirt bottle when you need it?

It may be a quick way to get information, but it's risky. Rebecca looks over at the clerk, then the door. Just in case.

"I think I rather like this one," she declares grandly as she points out one of the dresses.

"They hire Marshalls that young!?" He sounds more impressed than anything else!

"For a lawnmen's girl, discount!"

"Foiled more than one bank robbery already."

He said with a tip of his hat before pocketing the badge.

"And anything you can tell me about the going ons in this town would be mighty helpful."

He was having fun with this now.

She could tell. It's hard for Rebecca to keep the smile from her face as he mentions multiple bank robberies. Seems things were going in their favor for the moment, so she'll take the good while they have it and listen to whatever news is given.

Discounts are always a good thing, too. But she's not buying a corset.

He gives a long whistle!

"Well, Marshall. To be honest, the gang's got some might fancy lookin' revolvers. Shootin' some bullets made of light, riding iron horses."

Rebecca changes her mind and heads over to Eric to see if they have pants and a shirt she can wear instead.

"Bullets of light?" Oh god. Playing the part of a woman in the past. Such pain. She still acts baffled despite the internal cringing. "Imagine! When they'd start toting those?" She's pretty sure they both know what the "iron horses" are, so she'll keep an eye on the world outside via the window.

"Same ol' Billy the Kid and gang, but they're wranglin' fancy new guns."

Rebecca sees pants and shirts for men!

He would tip his hat to the shop keeper.

"And where might I go if I were inclined to look for a bit of trouble?"

"Huh..."

He gave a quick glance toward Becca.

"Guess I'll have to check it out."

He'd place the silver on the counter top.

"Got somewhere I can change into some proper clothes in here?"

Rebecca raises her brows at that. Of course it's going to be a brothel.

"Guess so." She's more concerned with the idea of a man posing as a U.S. Marshall going in alone than anything else.

She picks out the rest of a riding-style outfit for women and ends her shopping.
