Suzi didn't bring makeup or anything like it...she's never worn any.

Go ahead. Make her day.

From:

Mouse does not generally wear makeup for the purposes most women do, and there doesn't seem to be any for her skin's particular color values anyway - admittedly, her coloration is rather unusual, even as sprite colors go. But she has often disguised herself before, in the course of doing some of her less-than-legal work, so she has a deft hand with makeup.

"Lesse," she says, going through the various options for Suzi. "Ah! Here's some eyeliner...an' matchin' blue eyeshadow an' lipstick! Say, ya wouldn't mind havin' blue lips ta go with yer eyelids, would ya?"

From:

"I don't mind!" She assures the other woman, "I've never done anything like this before!"

From:

"Okay then! Hold still, darlin'." It takes a few minutes, User time, or nanos, sprite time, to apply all the makeup. Mouse does the eyeshadow and eyeliner first, then the lipstick and a bit of lipliner, plus a touch of blue blusher on Suzi's cheekbones. She also uses a glitter coating to make all the colored areas sparkle. "Done! Here's the mirror, Sugar. I think you'd pass for a very pretty-lookin' sprite."

From:

"I'm too beige." She argues, but she's grinning when she looks in the mirror, "Thank you...I don't know how to do this, or I'd do something for you, too."

From:

"You any good at doin' hair?" Mouse asks. She normally wears hers up with chopsticks, but what better time for fooling around with it than this?

From:

"Mmm. A little? Yours is a little straighter than mine, but I bet I could get it to do something fun..." Suzi's hair is traumatically curly. We say traumatically because if she doesn't tie it back before going to sleep it becomes, er. Icon.

Generally she fights it into ringlets.

From:

"Never thought I'd ever meet someone who'd call my hair straigher'n theirs," Mouse says, taking out the chopsticks and shaking her head. She has more hair than you'd think, falling in a red-and-gold river down to the middle of her back. "It looks like it's got static in it, but it don't, really," she reassures Suzi.

From:

"Mine's awful." she says cheerfully, "But lots of Sime have the same kind of hair." She digs all ten fingers and eight tentacles into the glittery mass and after a moment of consideration begins a complex series of twists to build little rosettes of barrel curls working with the natural curl in Mouse's hair and supplementing it as needed with purple ribbons.

From:

Mouse is obviously impressed when she looks in the mirror. "Heh! Hey, not bad at all!" She shakes her head back and forth, watching the curls sway. "Now ain't we just a lovely-lookin' pair?"

From:

"Uh huh. I'll have to try to describe it all to Whistler." She shakes her head with a laugh, "Even if most of it'll be lost on him."

From:

"He yer sweetheart, then? I'm thinkin' mine would have a shutdown seein' me like this."

From:

Mia takes a seat and runs her hands behind her ears.

"Have at it, Zelda," she says with a smile.

From:

Zelda begins to french braid her hair on the right side. When she finishes that side she secures it, then begins on the left. Finally she braids the rest of her hair into a long braid down Mia's back and ties it off with a pink ribbon to match her dress.

"There." she says, finishing. "What do you think?"

From:

She runs her hands across it.

"Do you have a mirror?"

It feels good, but it would be nice to look.

From:

Zelda glances around and spots one, then hands it to Mia while she finds another to let her see the back.

From:

It is different.

Good different.

"This is cute."

From:

She smiles brightly, happy that Mia likes it.

"What about those?" she asks, peering over at the nail polish nearby. "What is that for?"

From:

Ooh, this is something new.

"I'm not sure. We should ask one of the others."

Cue one kitsune peering over their shoulders at the nail polish.

"Those, are special types of paints and laquers for putting on your finger nails- and toe nails, if you'd like. Waterproof, and it usually lasts for a few days. Longer, if you're careful with your hands."

Laini blinks, then grins.

"-Looks like they have glow-in-the-dark with silver glitter..."

Three guesses as to the color Laini will be picking for herself, here.

From:

That sounds pretty. Zelda smiles and begins looking through the colors for something that would match her dress. "That looks like fun!" she says, bouncing slightly.
