Eldest sister is lacing older sister in a corset.
Older sister, hand over stomach: “I feel like Elizabeth Swan!”
Me, watching this take place, sipping my coffee, quoting a completely different movie: “Make it tighter. I can hear you breathe without gasping.”
Older sister: “Don’t make me laugh right now!”
Eldest sister: “You’ll get used to it.”
Older sister: “Wait, shit; I did the newbie mistake! It’s supposed to be boots before corset! Fuck! I work at ren fair: I should know this! Damn it!”
Me, almost spitting out my coffee.
Eldest sister: “Easy there, tiger.”
