Esther walked down the treacherously humid sidewalk, scratching at the sleeve of her pink dress at her wrist. She turned into The Oddities Inn and up the steps. Once inside, she pulled a fan out of her purse and got to flapping it to help ease the rosiness from her cheeks. “Charles, hello there,” she spoke easily at the man behind the counter. “I’ve come to speak about a certain... Marvin Jones,” she said, pulling out a manila folder onto the counter. “I’m having troubles getting him to open up, and I’m wondering if you could be my ‘man on the inside,’” Esther said with the hint of a smile on her lips. “He is somewhat young and doesn’t like looking up at me, past... well, let’s just say our eyes have never once met. I need someone on my side, dear.”

I’ve never been good at emotional stuff. Except anger. Anger, I’m good at.

Date: Sunday July 11th, 1920

Time: Around 11PM

Location: Zora Estate, sidelines of the dance floor

The woman was more of a chaperone than an attendee, at least in the past one or two centuries of being in Zora. Especially after becoming a delegate in recent years, she rather fit the bill of a mother hen over that of a party animal, but she still enjoyed seeing the radiant faces of those she had learned to know and love over the years as they celebrated.

She walked up to another who was standing on the sidelines as the music blasted loudly, and leaned towards her companion. “You know there are plenty of booths. Bobbing for apples, hopscotch, face painting, horseshoes. And plenty of delicious food to eat; my recommendation is the kettle corn. Oh, or we could stop by the photo booth stall, we’ve got props this year. I know I have a reputation of following the rules, but I’d love to put on a fake mustache and smile for the camera. What do you say?”

I can’t keep my eyes off the women you see in cities like London, New York and Paris – the way they carry themselves and put themselves together are always so unique. Sexiness is about being an individual and having conviction about what that is.
