She was awake early, restless and full of nerves.

It's not time yet, but it's nearly so, and still she can't quite believe it's real.

But oh, as she looks at the things neatly arranged in preparation, Susan Delgado is smiling.

Lilly knocks on the door to Susan's room. She wasn't up quite as early as Susan, but she's up now, and has coffee and a lovely blue and white dress on a hanger with her. Shoes, hair stuff, makeup, and various other deeply girly things are in a bag slung over her shoulder.

"Excuse me, I'm looking for the future sai Allgood?"

[sai_delgado]

She opens the door, smiling-- and it's both bright and yet clearly nervous.

"Ye've found her, I wot."

[awesome_lilly]

"Oh, yeah I have," Lilly says, grinning as she takes in Susan's slightly nervous smile.

"No need to be nervous, Su. I promise that whatever happens today, you're going to be a much prettier bride than Koosh's last one. Also I don't think anyone's going to sprinkle beer on you."

She steps inside, hanging up her dress and laying down her bag and coffee.

"So, did you decide how you want your hair?"

[sai_delgado]

"I'd hope not," she says, laughing a little.

Susan's not dressed for the wedding yet; she's wearing a soft flannel shirt, an oversized one, and occasionally runs her fingers over a bracelet.

"And I'd thought to put flowers in it-- small ones, like the roses Anthy gave me once--" She nods toward a sombrera with a wreath of tiny white roses around the crown.

Lilly glances at the hat and then at the bowl of tiny pink and white roses on the desk.

"If you want to have it mostly done, I can just do some braids and have the roses braided in. Does that sound good?"

[sai_delgado]

"Aye, I think that'd be well," she says, reaching one hand up to touch a golden circlet, half-hidden in her hair. "Cuthbert likes my hair loose."

A soft smile, as she says this.

Lilly beams at the smile. Seeing Susan this happy... well, it's kinda contagious.

"As he is the one you're marrying, that totally works. Let me get started on that and then we can put our dresses on when I'm done. My hair won't take me long at all, it's just going up in this twisty way Meg showed me."

[sai_delgado]

"All right," she says, and sits down in the chair at the desk.

Susan's far taller than Lilly, oh aye, and this way she'll be able to reach.

"Thee found a pretty dress," she remarks, as Lilly begins to braid.
