"I wore this to a ball several seasons ago." Gale glanced at himself in the mirror, doing a small turn for Florence. Gale brushed his hands over the fabric, the laces to the corset portion hung loosely so Gale was not tied up properly, not that he would have been able to considering his size was vastly different now after their adventures.
When Gale turned and his gaze locked onto Florence he was surprised at their face.
"Oh? Do you think the color or cut flatters me?"
↬ @kenostaph, as gale, unprompted ( always accepting ).
the tower is waiting. the tower has been waiting for quite a time but they are here, they are ready, and they. . . are not able to look away.
“ a ball ? ” it is easy to picture. gale standing proud amongst a crowd, resplendent in cloth far too fine and putting every soul to shame. it is a wonderful thought. it is a distracting thought. it is so easy to ignore the broom in their hands, but the moment is easily shattered.
caught staring like a hare in a trap, but florence can’t gather the shame. why should they? all’s fair now, and with no one around. . .
“ both, ” they say, forcing their eyes to stay on gale. “ have you thought of getting more ? ”
