Nothing. ( it's been nice to get a chance to do something like this, something so normal. it's been a long time, even before coming down here. ) Don't go ruining it in th' caves or owt. ( :P )
[With almost childish glee, Faith moves behind Kate and starts to work on a simple braid, but not before combing her fingers through the hair. Pink, soft, so pretty.]
If I'd met you when I was little, I'd 'ave wondered if your hair tastes like candy floss.
Gonna hang 'em up in the living room, unless Carlisle doesn't want that.
[He can be a bit prickly about things Faith wouldn't even think twice about. Also, he's religious. If there's some religious reason for no pictures in the common areas, she'll keep it to her room. She likes to tease her friends, not to be rude to them.]
Yeh, I'm with ya. [Faith chuckles, running her fingers through Kate's hair before continuing with the braiding.] Glad I got 'em when Delight and Hope played with the Door. Good seein' Jay, too.
[In a weird way, the whole thing gives her hope that anything's possible. That maybe they can find a way to open the Door on their own and come and go as they please. Wouldn't that be good?]
( ahhh, bless. when they're home - let's think when - she's gonna have to come over when he's around. )
Not surprised. ( Jay seems to take to most things easily. he doesn't really bother to worry when something goes wrong. Kate's not sure she's ever seen him stressed, actually. )
True enough. ( she's never really tried to get settled here, kept everything as spartan as possible in her flat, her room. it's not like there's exactly great interior decorating here.
but, after months, it gets harder to draw certain lines. it's harder to let yourself ignore people, when they're all here because of the same thing. when you're all playthings. )
[Yeah let's not go there. Faith's not in the mood right now. It's the beginning of the day, and she wants to start it with silly, normal things like doing your best friend's pretty pink hair.]
Not as good as the one you did, but still good! [She picks up one of the mirrors and lifts it up behind Kate.] Go on, have a look.
( yeah. things should be calm in this time of day. nothing that plagues their thoughts for the rest of the day should come into focus. that's how Kate has always used this time. everything but the realistic things. the sad things.
she picks up her mirror, looking over her shoulder, and lets herself smile for a brief second. )
( Faith would look pretty with a fishtail plait over one shoulder. maybe a twist plait if she's feeling fancy, but first she has to remember how to do the basics. )

Prob'ly should find some hairspray or summat. ( meanwhile, Kate is just gonna put hers up in a bun again. how boring. help her, Faith. )
no subject
[In the mirror, she sees Kate twist her hair into a bun. Tilting the mirror so she can look straight at Kate, Faith pouts.]
Not gonna do somethin' nice for yourself?
no subject
( look at all that hair Faith you know you want to play with it. )
no subject
Eee. 'M not as good at plaits as you, but I can do better than a bun.
no subject
Go for it.

If we'd met then, I'd be brunette.
( she knows what Faith means. she's just being an ass. )

[Faith laughs, tugging gently on Kate's hair as she starts on the braid. One long one down her back, pink and pretty.]
Pink's good on you, I like it. Plus it looks nice next to mine in pictures.
no subject
What're you gonna do with the photos?

Gonna hang 'em up in the living room, unless Carlisle doesn't want that.

Would look nice there.
( she'd like to see them there. it's been a long time since she's seen the others. )

no subject
Yeh. Took to this place real quick for the bit he was here. Would've been nice to keep 'im 'round, but at least we've got the pictures now.

Good reminder not to get settled here, yeh? Never know what could happen, to you or anyone else.

How's it look?

Great.
( and, actually. ) You ever do fishtail plaits?
( because she might have an idea for next time. )
no subject
No, never heard of 'em!
[But you can bet she's going to ask you to do them next time.]
