Some quest items are harder to find than others. Especially if you're intent on getting the Very Best. And Cloud is. He's going to send the pretty girl off to the ball and he's going to do it so much better than any little 'magic' bird ever could. So it's a little bit of time but not too much before there's the distant and growing rattle of a carriage approaching the door of the tailor's. And what a carriage it is too. Drawn by four snow white horses (who look a little ragged and wild eyed) and painted in pure white with pink gold gilt trim around it (except in that spot on the coachman's now empty seat where it looks like it got pulled off when someone tried to hang on to something - unsuccessfully). No one's driving it and there's no one on the footman's perch but the driverless carriage pulls to a only slightly rough stop outside the door Aerith is waiting at and seconds later, Cloud, tongue lolling in pleasure, slips out from between the traces where the skitterish horses are waiting to trot proudly over to the girl in the doorway. He's quite proud of managing to play sheep dog to a bunch of horses but he's even more proud of what he's managed to get inside the carriage.

A pair of comfortable fur lined Ugg boots slippers. Because he's a sensible wolf and if she's going to be on her feet all night he's made sure to get her sensible shoes to hide under the long train of her dress.

Beat that birdie!
