The red glasses remained innocently in their plastic case. She stared at them accusingly anyways. Her fingers drummed an anxious tattoo on the marble edge of the sink and she looked up and at her own reflection in the broad, clear mirror. Already her hair started mischief, delighting in snarling and frizzing and sticking up in defiance of gravity without the heavy hand of hair gel she liberally applied most days.
Clicking her tongue in annoyance, she glared at the glasses for another minute. This was ridiculous. Who was she to be intimidated by a pair of non-functional accessories? Gritting her teeth, she picked up the frames and roughly pushed them onto her face, staring at her reflection through the clear, useless lenses.
The red frames settled on her face uneasily at first but she grudgingly admitted that they weren’t nearly as awful as she thought they would be, as she turned her face this way and that to observe all the different angles. She then pulled out her powder compact, dusted a bit of shine from her nose, and headed out of the far too luxurious bathroom to the equally ridiculous library.
Half the books had never been read; she was willing to bet some had remained in place since the early 1800s. It was almost a pity and she wondered if she could get away with “borrowing” a few tomes at a time-
Sometimes she had to muse on the merits of having such sharp hearing, as she whirled around smoothly to face the almost silent newcomer in the still room. He blinked at her quizzically. She smiled wryly at him. Then she tilted her head slightly and looked at him right over the rim of her glasses.
Her hand slowly went up to take off the useless things and she very deliberately folded them. Her other hand pulled off the clip attempting to confine her uncooperative hair and she let the strands fall down properly with a shake of her head.
“Mr. Jones, do you know what the penalty is for an overdue book?” she inquired.
Notes: Shamelessly stolen from a surreally humorous episode of “Bones.”
