[We interrupt your doses of angst to bring you Courage the cowar-- two little girls hanging out in the mall? Yep, you got it here live first. The feed doesn’t cut on, but the audio does as the two make their way through. It seems Hazel might have bumped the PCD in her pocket on.
Either way, there’s silence a moment before the girl speaks up.]
Rhyme? How come you didn’t wear a dress to prom?
Well.....[The younger girl trails off for a moment.] I...don't really wear dresses. I mean, I didn't have a date or anything, so there wasn't really a need for one, was there?
[There's a laugh before the other speaks up again.] Dresses aren't for dates, they're for feeling nice. In my day, we nearly always wore dresses. [A swift pause before jostling.] Here. We should get you one we're here.
[Rhyme stops and shakes her head.] I don't think we need to do this...I mean.....[Frantic excuse time, go!] I...don't need one!
[There's another more contemplative pause briefly before.] Rhyme, have you ever owned a dress before?
[She sighs.] When I was five, maybe....
One dress, alright? [It's said lightly enough, a gentle maternalness to it before a small laugh.] Every girl needs at least one.
[Sigh again, before resigning.] Only one. And I don't need to be too girly.
A dress doesn't make you girly, Rhyme. You're already one. [And a bit teasingly.] Or did you forget?
I know I'm a girl! [Frowny face.] Let's go, I want to get this over with.
[Rustling as Hazel picks out a simple, pastel sort before speaking.] Come on, it won't be so bad.
[And it's at this that feed finally decides to time out. Yep, just two twelve and thirteen year old girls looking for clothes. Pretty simple day in Adstring?]
[[ooc: Orange is Rhyme! Purple is Hazel! IDEK...]]
