Am I Pretty?

[sansseraph]

Who: Lailah and Mikleo
Broadcast: N/A (only to a certain water seraph at first, anyway)
Action: S.S. Huntress, in Lailah's room
When: 1/10, hours before her date with Zaveid (so very early morning)

[It's been a long time since Lailah's been on a date with someone. Her duty to the Shepherds, as well as generally the rest of the world, has kept such luxuries to a minimum for her. Honestly, she's excited and happy for it, if also a bit nervous. That nervousness won't stop her from taking a day to feel like a normal seraph, though.

She has the make-up and dress prepared, but she stares at her hair with mild discontent. She needs a second opinion, and there's really only one person she can think of to help her out and might be up at this hour.

Lailah sends a quick voice message to Mikleo.]

Mikleo? I hope I'm not interrupting anything or waking you up.

[Mikleo having some experience with styling changes things so much.]

Oh! Well, in that case, why don't we try curling my hair? If you're comfortable with that.

[She steps carefully over to her desk to sit down on it, moving her hair so that it flows over the back. Lailah looks over her shoulder to smile at him.]

This way, you'll get more practice combining fire with your water channeling.

There's a thought. We'll need something to heat up, but I won't deny that the practice could benefit us in the long run... and the short term too, of course, if it turns out well.

[Let's not be selfish about it; this is for Lailah, not his own growth. That's just a small attached perk.

He moves to stand behind her, fetching her brush to work it gently through the long locks. Her hair is soft, and it brushes easily without much tangling despite the length of it; pretty impressive, actually.]

I don't know how you manage with hair this long all the time.

[sansseraph]

Hm, I do have a metal rod that we could use? I'd thought about curling it for some time, but I've never had an excuse to try until now.

[Granted, she doesn't really need an excuse to try out different styles, but details.

Lailah giggles at the comment.]

It takes practice, and some trial-and-error. My seraphic artes also help in keeping my hair from getting too frizzy.

[nerdeology]

There's seraphic artes for hair care?

[Is there a seraphic arte for everything?!]
