you couldn’t remember the last time you had been in the spotlight of the next essence. even now, when Nightingale’s tailors are fitting the dress to your form, it’s hard to believe.

they all surround you like ants to a crumb, gently readjusting, poking and prodding.. but honestly? it’s worth it.

it’s so, so worth it. because you can see your girlfriend, leaning against the wall with the most lovey-dovey look in her pretty eyes.
