[Mingle]

[randomly_modding]

[So you're in the studio and the camera crew has instructed your characters to break into your teams to discuss 1) the client's personal fashion comfort zone and preferences, and 2) how to give them the Stylecation makeover they obviously need, while 3) working in the episode theme of "animal".]

[Or that's what you're supposed to be talking about, to obey the host.]

[Please don't mind the cameras focused on you at all times, even following you to the snack table to grab coffee and danishes and donuts. But feel free to crash one of the other team mingles!]

[ Pity! ...is not something Lucina loves to be on the receiving end of. Fortunately, she's terrible at recognising it for what it is. ]

I may need to get to know you better before I grasp that fully.

[ Can't help but think Isabela would eat this girl alive. And that's a very pretty picture--

But back to the situation at hand. She sets her cup aside and moves to perch on the arm of a chair. ]

Well, plenty of time to do that, if our captors have anything to say about it. What do you like to wear, then?

[ Lucina considers for a moment, then glances down at what she's wearing now. ]

This has served me well so far. It was crafted in the conceit of one of my ancestors. It would bring honour to this memory, I think.

[ Lucina, honey, no... ]

[waytobreakithero]

[ Trying valiantly not to laugh, but unfortunately for Lucina's sentiment, she does look amused. Of course, when you hold very little sacred, most things are inappropriately funny. ]

Well... something tells me that isn't going to be our best option here. Maybe I should start simple: pants or dresses?

[ Lucina furrows her brow in wonder at Hawke's suppressed laughter. Had she made a joke and missed it? It's happened before, when people laugh at things Lucina say and she's never sure why. ]

Whatever allows me the most ease of movement. So, um, trousers, I imagine.

[waytobreakithero]

[ Hopefully, they get to be good enough buddies for Lucina to feel comfortable ignoring Hawke like the rest of her friends. But for now, Hawke nods approvingly. ]

I'm with you there. How do you feel about showing skin?

[emends]

I wouldn't see the point, if I am being honest. I'm not especially interesting to look at.

[ There's a reason that Lucina was able to pass as a young man for the first half of her jaunt through time. It's a statement of fact, no embarrassment or shame in it. She's well aware what her values are, appearance isn't one of them.

To her, at any rate. ]

[waytobreakithero]

[ Blinks. ]

That's hardly true. I'd take a tumble with you anytime. [ More stating a fact, though if Lucina wanted to read more into it... Isabela would probably encourage it anyway. ]

[ BLUSHING ]

That's very flattering, my lady, but I'm afraid I must decline.

[waytobreakithero]

[ She does start laughing, and gives the girl a pat on the arm. ]

My loss, then. [ Completely good-natured, though out of the corner of her eye, she sees a pair of the whoever-the-hell-they-are engaged in a furious bit of gossip and pointing. She doesn't understand the impetus, but they make the hair on the back of her neck stand on end. ]

I just meant... [ Try to ignore them. ] That you're pretty.
