Nineteen
[Action Post]
[Mark's delayed his date with Norma for a while not. There are a few reasons for this. this first is that he was collecting appropriate clothing for the night. He didn't think his old cloak would do at all, so he's gotten himself a nice collar shirt and a jacket over it... plus some decent trousers. He's tried to make his hair a bit more sensible, but as ever, he is suffering from his eternal case of minor hat-hair. ...He's concluded that he really needs it cut.
Secondly, he had to search the town for a place suitable for a dinner-night out with an attractive woman.
The main reason, however, is that secret from everyone, he's been practicing walking. He doesn't feel totally strong yet (which is why he's got a cane on him now) but he can now walk confidently without sliding down onto the floor. For this reason, it is he that knocks on Norma's door, one hand leaning on the cane, and the other holding some flowers, intended as a 'I'm sorry' gift for Norma.
...Also notable, however, is that he has on a necklace. It's not usually a style, but it's a counterpart to the sun necklace he gave Norma for her birthday. His is a dull moon-shaped stone on the end of it and is made of silver... or at least a silver look-alike.
Hey Norma, your date's here!]
