[vi is no longer a bundle of nerves or suffering feelings backlash this month, but she doesn't quite feel herself, and though she can put a finger on why, she'd prefer not to. what she does catch herself doing, despite having a full purse thanks to painting faces and inking bodies, is putting her fingers on the merchandise. in a way she hasn't really thought about in months. she's sly about it, waiting until everyone's otherwise occupied, and catching her sister's gaze - pocketing the piece of jewelry with a smile.
what's a little five finger discount between sisters, anyway? she saw you looking at it, jinx, so here you go: happy birthday. no one saw. probably.
did she overdress? maybe. it's the fanciest thing she's got that isn't a costume (lies, it sort of was), or her usual hunting gear, and maybe she's a little unsure about her ability to do this - she lives with sansa after all, so her internal bar is ...perhaps set too high. it's not the warmest thing, but it's fine as long as she's got a thick cloak over it. maybe it's time for a new 'fancy dress' outfit. she will definitely offer a truthful opinion on anything she's offered, or that's modeled by someone else. she can ...totally do this.
where she stops, entranced, is when she sees the glowing hair dye. she's not sure if she'd seen it before, but if she had ...how could she have missed this? she'll be super into getting a few streaks run through her longer hairs, a pale pink and a pale blue that only shows in the dark. she'll be watching the whole process very carefully, asking questions here and there, nodding, and taking notes into her omni. she won't stop here - she'll watch others get their hair done, too. no stranger to buzzing her own hair, and even a bit of a cut, she's now rethinking her options. (maybe her whole career).
what the hell, she'll go for the manicure and the makeup - but just a bit of grungy liner.
she's not used to splashing out on herself like this - unless it's food or drinks.
did someone say food? drinks? yeah, she's down for both. she'll eat anything that's pushed in front of her, and likely several helpings. double that for drinks, though she will try to show restraint here. teach her your dances! she can show off those thrillerdance moves finally without fear of ruining a party. (or single ladies, she knows that one too) and she's always up for embarrassing her sister (or you) with karaoke.
is she covering an actual mess with her sister? yes. is it awkward? absolutely. is she a bit corrupted? that's also a yes, but that's the least of her problems right now. cait showed up. she's weird about it. saeri's here. she's trying not to be weird about it. oh, yeah ...she should probably tell scorpia about her time as a cat.]
