Room 218, Saturday Afternoon

[glacial_queen]

Room 218 looked like a whirlwind had visited, strewing clothing and make-up everywhere. Karla stood in the epicenter, looking almost shell-shocked. Most of the clothing was new and unworn, purchased at Pixie Dust a few weeks ago, and the make-up still had the plastic over it. Like Karla had the first clue about how to put on make-up.

After a frantic phone call to Emma, Karla could at least calm down a bit, knowing someone more competent than she at this stuff (namely, any female and a good half of the males) was coming to help. This was Karla's first official ball. Or dance. Or whatever. She'd been too young to attend any of the ones her parents had held, the coven wasn't exactly the ball-throwing type, and she'd boycotted anything her Hobart had hosted because, well, she hated him.

So rather than her usual routine of 'find something clean, brush hair, and be done with it,' Karla was waiting for Emma, about to have her first lesson in fashion. (The shopping trip hadn't counted. That was gathering the tools necessary to have this lesson.)

[For one, but open for anyone who wants to stop by beforehand.]

"Perhaps I'll just have a talk with him, then," Karla said, teasing grin growing wider.

"Kaaaarla," Dinah warned. "Should I ask where Leda is? Or is not?"

"I would never, I would never," Karla promised, grinning. Besides, warnings gave people an unfair advantage. She was much more likely to retaliate after he did something she would have warned him against.

"I'm not sure where Leda is," Karla said, shrugging. "She was ill, earlier this week, and is only just getting around again. I hope I'll see her at the dance, though."

"That's too bad. I hope she's feeling okay enough to hit the dance, then." Dinah cocked her head. "Things going okay there?"

"I don't really know," Karla said. "We had a date and it was fun, and we've been chatty when we bump into one another, but it's only been a single date. I don't even know what that means, if it means anything at all." Karla shrugged.

Dinah decided not to speculated, and instead said, "That you had a good time. So yeah. Maybe another date will happen, and that'll be fun too." She grinned. "Anyway. Thanks for the help with the shoes. Can I help with the clothes at all?" She gave the piles a dubious look. "Or are you just gonna narrow it down to a basic target first?"

[glacial_queen]

"We'll probably go out again," Karla said smiling shyly. "And you're welcome. Glad to help."

She cast a sheepish glance around her room. "I think I'm going to spend a few more minutes panicking, first. But thanks."
