He couldn't be serious? She was in a life crisis and he came up with something like this? Arabella stared at the mini maid costume that was held in front of her.  One hamster brow raised, she looked at him disdainfully.   

"Man, I'm having an epic crisis that will determine the rest of my life! I don't have time for your weird preferences, I have a parrot to convince!" With her little paws, she wrestled the little dress from him and demonstratively threw it on the floor. Energetically she crossed her arms in front of her fluffy chest, but when she saw his look, her heart broke. This grown man looked like a kicked puppy. Oh God, were there tears swimming in his far too beautiful eyes? Oh, come on! That puppy dog look, that's cheating...Sadly, he folded the tiny costume with his fingertips.  

"All right, all right. Stop looking like that or someone will call animal control." Grumbling, she pulled the dress from under his fingers and slipped it on. Great, now she was not only an enchanted hamster, but an enchanted cosplay hamster as well. Arabella looked up unwillingly and noticed the completely enraptured expression on her roommate's face. His eyes grew huge, his mouth hung open like a fish, and he looked as if he had just caught sight of the love of his life. Gesturing as if he were slipping a wedding ring on her, he put a lace cap on her. "Make your mirror impression already." her short squeak as she smoothed the skirt of the costume seemed to trigger a stroke in him.  Completely out of it, he stared at her. Arabella flicked under his nose, no response, she squealed, no response. She even threw sunflower seeds at him and he didn't even flinch. Annoyed, she slapped her face with her paw.  The doorbell announced a guest and the moment she caught sight of him, she guessed that he would bring her nothing but trouble.
