[CLOSED]

Who: Vivienne ([personal profile] kirkhammer) and Maki ([personal profile] cutiepanther)
When: Several days after the dungeon!
Where: Around Caissa?
What: Discussions of dungeons, and then.. dress shopping! Not necessarily in that order. Also one thread serves as overflow from the ball log.
Rating: PG? I doubt this will escalate to anything beyond this.

["There's a first time for everything." is how the saying normally goes, and today marks the first time for many things for Vivienne. This is the first time she's agreed on a one-on-one social outing. This is the first time she's maybe looked forward to said social outing. This is likely to be the first time she's been able to feel... normal? Well, at least normal according to the standards of most other folk. By Yharnam's standards, she's as normal as can be, if not overly polite, but Yharnam's a very dank place.

Patting the pouch of colle at her side, Vivienne checks for at least the fifth time that it's still there. She isn't exactly jittery, she just isn't entirely sure what to expect. Despite her ample free time, shopping for a dress never crossed her mind, and would never have if Maki hadn't brought it up back during the ball. Why would it, after all, when she's so far removed from that sort of thing.

Anyway, it's nearly time to meet Maki at their arranged spot. Vivienne isn't late, but all the same, she does hope Maki didn't arrive early for any reason - somehow, the idea of having kept her waiting irks her. Strange, that.]

[ With the dance flowing steadily, the sound of the pleasant waltz in her ear, Maki can't help but relax slightly. Even if she still manages to keep Vivienne on the beat by speeding up or slowing down her steps as needed, almost on instinct. ]

It's only natural, learning to dance is an important skill... It's not like I just wanted to dance with you or anything!

[ Wait, she definitely just admitted exactly why she pulled Vivienne out here, but she's also quick to push past it, almost pretending as if she didn't say it at all.

Actually, the next question makes her wish she could forget that too...

U-Um, w-well... I mean... n-no, no where I'm from anyway, not yet. Other places like in America where I've visited it's legal but-- I-I don't think Rin really means it like that... B-Besides I wouldn't want to get between her and Hanayo anyway!

[ Her face really is red now. ]
