Taffeta clings to her body, the silken fabric clinging to her waist in an attempt to emphasize her bust before falling into a full skirt, shrouding the rest of her frame in a deep rose fabric. It’s not a style she would’ve chosen, but it’s the style of the era. Perhaps if she were a man she’d be given the option of leather jackets and jeans; something that allowed her limbs to be free. But as a woman, it’s all long skirts, dainty heels, and thick curls. The unfamiliar clicking of her shoes against the pavement unsettles the girl, furthering her spiral into discomfort, something that always happens when they’re forced to time travel. And the strangers around her, other women bustling past in their hurry to get to shoppes and men whistling in her direction as if she were a dog, are doing nothing to help the girl. It finally becomes too much — the throbbing in her head from their travel, the clothes that make her feel like a foreigner in her own body, the people shoving her through the streets — and she closes her eyes, tears threatening to spill, when she’s pushed into another body. “Fuck. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to run into you. It’s just so damn crowded.”
