[The past few weeks have been hard on Miakis. Several of her friends have been droned in rapid succession. Dronings are nothing new, of course; they happen all the time. But when it happens so frequently, to some of the people you've known longest in this town

[Shana is also trying on a few dresses. Sadly, her rather underwhelming physique is making her try on dresses for little kids instead of 16 year old grown up type girls. She can be heard complaining.]

MOU! This is terrible! [sulky shana times.]

[sting_like_a]

Tell me about it~ [Miakis is fortunate in that she can fit into the women's dresses, but they're still pretty terrible. She has on a hideous ruffly pink thing right now.] Does this town have any attractive clothing?

[flameyedhunter]

Not that I've seen.

[She looks over at Miakis.]

Hey, who are you, anyway?

[sting_like_a]

Ugh, I wish I could just wear my armor...

[She sighs and picks at the skirt of her ugly, ugly dress.]

...Me? Miakis of the Falenan Queen's Knights, at your service~ What about you?

"As it was explained to me, its normally for high school. Some sort of dating thing. I... Really don't know beyond that, nor could I tell you about dating things. Omoikane won't give me any information on that."

[sting_like_a]

High school? ...Oh well, I'm going anyway! [pause] No one said anything about dating stuff, though. Hmmm~ Guess that means I have to drag the hubby along after all!

Are you gonna go, Ruri?

[hontobakabaka]

"No one asked me to go, and dresses here are rather expensive so... Not unless I get asked."

[sting_like_a]

You don't need a date, though~ And I could help you find a dress!

[sablebombay]

Are you okay, Miakis?

[Looking at the trashcan full of pancake mix...]

[sting_like_a]

I'm just really sick of pancakes. [Because they'd been Relm's favorite food. And now that her favorite not!daughter is droned for good, seeing all that pancake mix just makes her sad. :c] I'm fine, really~

[sablebombay]

[Oh. Okay, he understands. He nods.]

If you want to talk about it, I wouldn't mind listening.

....... Barring that, we could make waffles instead.

[sting_like_a]

We've eaten soooo many pancakes since Relm and I first woke up in this house... [She shrugs her shoulders casually, frowning.] I think Ken's sick of making 'em all the time by now~ Might as well do him a favor, right?

...Hey, that's not a bad idea~

[striped_biceps]

I don't get it, either. I talked to Quinn about it, but I think it's just an excuse to dance or somethin'.

[sting_like_a]

Hmmmm~ Does that mean you're not going?

[striped_biceps]

Nah, I'm goin' with Quinn. [There is nothing wrong about that statement. Right? Right.]

[sting_like_a]

[Nothing wrong, no, but it sure is amusing.]

Ooooh, is that so?

[Outside the store, Yuki performs her usual act of wandering around town without ever looking up from her book. . . . For whatever reason, though, she'll stop and pause in front of the clothing store for a few minutes, looking at the dresses displayed.]

[sting_like_a]

Oh, hi, Yuki!

[Following her gaze and peeeering at the dresses]

Are you looking for a prom dress too~?

[bogusmagicker]

[Yuki shakes her head slowly. No. She is looking at a prom dress. The idea of her wearing an outfit like that is highly improbable.]

[sting_like_a]

Aww. Not going to prom? You should, it'll be fun~!
