@Iaceandlipstick a-hem.. well, you know. they say a woman's under-armor can make her feel like a, a goddess, or a general, or a rockstar- you know, whatever you prefer. or whatever fits more. ๐ฆ
@Iaceandlipstick y-you, uh, washed your clothes at my place a few times when we were younger, y'know, and i remembered the, yeah, and, guestimated the difference--
"I need to hear you admit that you're brilliant like rays of sunshine, beautiful like the flowers in bloom, and deserving of more kindness than you tend to give yourself, @Iaceandlipstick."
@Iaceandlipstick eyes squeeze before opening to gaze at the fireflies like a lovestruck puppy alone at home, waiting by the door.
"i don't know if i'm brave enough... i can tell these damned feelings haven't faded away."
these are.. fireflies, why?
-- there's a sudden ache within her breast, dull but heavy. the glimmer from the insects' tiny bodies light up her eyes: curiosity, realization, pain.
and then they close. she turns her face away, softly shaking her head. don't do this to me, girl..
@Iaceandlipstick those violet eyes close as she takes a slow breath, hand rising to cover her mouth. the pain lingers; her heart aches with a longing held back by anxiety.
"i can't do that, girl," she whispers. there's a warm fondness in her voice despite the words. "i.."
slowly reaches to put a shushing a finger to cosie's lips and winks.
( and then turns her head away to hide the flushing bc that wasn't actually supposed to be noticed- )
@prettyinpearls an eyebrow lifts -- amusement, or questioning? there's a slight tilt of her head before she leans in, lips pushed against the shushing finger.
she seems to search the cat-eared girl's eyes while granting little room for excuses. "you should."
it almost sounds like a command.
