001 Action [OTA]

[tiatiatiatiatia]

If you happen to be walking in the dorms, you might just hear some high pitched squeaks, among other sounds of disappointment and the occasional "harrumph". And if you were to look out of the corner of your eye through the open door into the room, you'd see pink garments a-flying every which way, and a blonde girl in what already appeared to be a

[Chel pokes her head into the messy room, filled with more clothes than she could ever imagine. As someone who had very few options as far as attire, Chel doesn't understand this overreaction. She takes Lottie's crying in with a sigh.]

Lottie, are you okay?

[She primarily asks this to gain access into her room. Lottie seems pretty wealthy, so Chel's going to take advantage of it, peering into the piles of clothes. She's not particularly fond of the outfits, but maybe someone with a bit of money to spend might.]

[Turns around and sees Chel]

Oh, hi there, Chel. [she takes a hanky and wipes away the mascara tears. She stumbles over to the trunk she previously missed] I hope so. If th'outfit I'm lookin' for is in this trunk, I might survive this whole ordeal.

Well, don't jus' stand on formalities. Common in, sug. [Yeah. Like there's room to stand at this point. I feel bad for Tiana having to room with you...]

[Chel could offer to help her search, but she actually turns and stumbles over the piles on the floor. Her eyes wander over jewelry and hats, her fingers twitching by her side, but she refrains from taking a swipe of anything yet.

No matter how annoying Chel may find this girl, she still has remnants of a conscience.]

[Jane was heading back to her room when she heard the sounds, and she peered around the corner of Lottie's door.]

What are you doing?

[tiatiatiatiatia]

[she tries to compose herself, and wipes away the teared mascara with a hankerchief]

Oh, hi there sugah. I'm jus' looking for somethin' to help out this tacky old school outfit along...

[verypractical]

O--oh.

[She looks down at her school uniform, as if examining herself.]

You think it's...

You do have a lot of clothes...

[Jane really doesn't know what her point is. She doesn't know many girls who are older than her but not her mother's age.]

[tiatiatiatiatia]

Oh, do come in, sugah. Sorry about th'mess. If I could jus' find my petticoat and maybe some stockin's... and a broach. Maybe even a hat. It's jus' really hard to match anythin' to this uniform.

[she jestures to the multitudes of pink garments]
