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.

[The nice thing about being a seraph is that sleep is pretty optional, and since the whole malevolence... thing... he's been sleeping a lot less than he used to. He's in bed but awake to receive her message, so it only takes him a moment to respond. He does keep his voice down, though; Sorey's usually a heavy sleeper, but there's no need to risk disturbing him.]

Not at all. What is it?

[ Zaveid has always stuck true to the name in his heart, his true name - Zaveid of a Promise. He says he's going to do something and he'll damn well do it, even if it takes him a hell of a long time to get there in the end. This, however, is one promise he's not exactly aching to get over and done with and there's an itch of excitement about him that he can't quite swallow back.

Meeting Lailah is easy, and he waits for a few moments before he sends a quick message to her device. He hasn't gone out of his way to look too fancy - she'd see right through that, she's always had the brains - so instead he's just tidied his hair up a bit, sorted out the cuffs on his arms (they're tucked under his pillow now) and... Actually pilled his trousers up properly.

He's trying. ]
