Sally stared at Treven in confusion and then when he finally voiced his opinion her cheeks flushed multiple shades darker. Perfect. "Th-thank you." She hated his smile. She hated the fact that he'd actually worn the bow tie she'd made. She hated the way her heart felt like it was going to pound it's way through her chest and leap out as each of those things were brought to her attention. But no- she didn't hate him. Not really. She loved his smile, it could light up the darkest night. He was such a brilliantly bright person it made the darkness that Sally was so very fascinated with seem dismal.

His next words however, made the color of her cheeks deepen and a nervous little laugh escaped. "It suits you well." She said softly. "I'm glad you wore it..." She bit her lip to try to calm herself but it didn't really do much aside from hurt slightly.

Tonight was going to be a long night. In perhaps the best way possible.

For you, I Will || Sally and Treven

[restlessragdoll]

Sally, though preoccupied with reading had been acutely aware of her housemate's presence. She always was. She, with each passing day was becoming more and more aware of the fact that her stomach churned in knots when he was around. It wasn't much of a problem. She was naturally shy and her awkward demeanor was... well consistent so it wasn't anything out of the ordinary.

She wrinkled her nose at Treven as she passed to grab the laundry, amused at herself, and unable to be angry with him. 

Upon her return, she half expected the question that greeted her. "If you want to..." She smiled, she didn't mind doing it on her own. But she knew full well that the chores either of them did ended up being a team effort. It was just how they worked most of the time.

"Oh I agree. Too many people insist on color and lose the beauty of the dark and light, the shadows..." She loved drawing as much as she did designing and though designing was most of her focus she'd draw at times as well. Often times the thing that inspired a particular dress or jacket... or what have you. "I need to get more of my own designs, before I  start my own line. But I'm working on it." She nodded, thumbing over a few older designs in the front of the book and knowing in her other sketchbooks were a few more she'd actually want to make. A lot of them were prototypes. A rough sketch followed by a cleaned up version, and then various colored versions. Some on the same page, others scattered over half a book.

"Yeah, if y’have the patience to do it right, graphite’s more beautiful than pretty much anything, in my opinion." Zane didn’t have a good set of colored pencils, not a complete one, but he dod have a plethora of different leads and graphites to pick from. He had a lot of charcoal too, but that made a mess so he avoided carrying it. And used it less often. "Someday, today, whichever works," he smiled. He felt the same way with acting and auditions. He wanted to, really did, but actually doing a show was something that’s happen "someday," too. He had his art, and school, and tech, and between the three and the few friends he had, there was just enough time to fit in sleep. But he’d have time. Someday.

"Sally." She offered her hand nervously. She was used to talking to people, and not having to worry about her brother flipping out if he found out she left. But now- her shyness had become such a habit of her lack of people skills... well, she wasn't used to greeting people. "And you?" She realized that just because she gave her name didn't imply he would do so. "You can order more than that... I don't mind, money isn't an issue." She smiled nervously, not wanting him to miss out on lunch just because he might be afraid she wasn't serious. She'f half expected the next person to order extra, just because they weren't paying. But now she was afraid that this young man wouldn't get a proper meal beacuse of her offer.

Pay it forward || OPEN

Sally was heading to the library, a book in her bag as she enjoyed the walk in the snow. It fell around her like confetti, dusting her hair and the sidewalk as she made her way to return the book she'd gotten a few days ago. However, she knew the library didn't close for a few more hours and the book wasn't late anyway she could just drop it in the slot if she missed going in. Plus, a hot cocoa sounded really good about now. Too bad Treven wasn't there to share one with her. But- he was working. Instead she took a seat at the counter of Granny's diner and ordered a hot cocoa. But before the waitress left, Sally added. "And I'll pay for whoever's next too. I don't care how much." It was Christmas after all, maybe she could make someone smile.

Close To You || Sally & Treven

Sally curled up with a book on one corner of the couch, waiting for the laundry to be done. She was in a pair of fluffy pajama bottoms and a p tee shirt. The epitome of comfortable. Her hair was damp from her shower still, though barely, it was cool against her cloth covered shoulder when she shifted slightly. Her book was good, a murder mystery type novel that had her almost literally on the edge of her seat when the moments got intense, but for now it was a lull in the action.

However that didn't stop her from jumping when the beeeeep! Sounded from the laundry room not that far away. She blushed, chuckling at herself as she set her book aside to go and get the laundry, piling it into the basket and enjoying for a moment the fluffy fresh scent of warm laundry. Grabbing the basket she nudged the door of the dryer shut with her foot. She carried the basket back to her previous seat, but instead slid to the floor so she could sort the laundry into piles as she folded.

"Do... you like it?" She blushed, wishing to disappear into the wall or perhaps the ground... either way. She wasn't sure why either. She had no real reason to be embarrassed or shy. It was Treven her housemate and best friend. He'd seen her at her worst and he was still around so why did she think he'd have any issue with her dressed up and looking nice? Why he'd have a problem with going to the dance with her. They had agreed on it after all.

She knew why, of course. The feelings had been stirring since they'd met. And when he'd helped her, and they'd moved in together.... well that'd only gotten worse.

"It might be a bit much, but I wasn't sure if I should do a real ballgown, or an evening gown.. or a cocktail dress... I just-..." She stopped herself and shook her head gently to calm the nerves that nagged as her since she'd put the dress on. "You look nice." She concluded, hoping to ignore her previous 'outburst'. It wasn't like she could do anything about it now.

She nodded. She understood, she was lucky, really. To have the money she did and the brother who spoiled her excessively in trying to win her over. "Oh and black and white is so beautiful... color is great but there's a beauty to the detail of black and white. All of my original sketches are black and white so I don't lose details of the design in the colors." She smiled, she loved black and white. It was perhaps one of her favorite mediums to work with. She loved colors too but there was something special about black and white. She even had a few dresses that were actually made in black and white, with shades of gray to mix in with it. "Thank you." Her cheeks flushed pink but she was happy. She love designing. And to do that for a living would be amazing. "I'd like to... someday."

"I can’t really afford watercolor pencils right now, but I’ve tried them out in school," he nodded slightly, then shrugged, "but I usually end up going black an white. Shading’s a bitch, but it’s easier than trying to get the right color. And less expensive." He could afford colors when it was for a school project, and he kept using those for special pieces, for as long as he had them. But as far as his day to day doodles, and there were never ending stacks of sketchpads filled with those, he tried to use cheaper materials, so he didn’t constantly need to buy more of the expensive stuff. "Your own line?" he grinned, looking at the design again, "You totally should. Your work’s amazing."

[restlessragdoll]

Sally practically squealed with delight but her usual quiet self won out and she didn't actually. Though the joy was clear on her features. "I'll be right back." She smiled and ran off to get the dress. It was white and gold. It looked so regal, Sally couldn't help but think that it would suit Quinn better than anyone she could think of. Quinn had this grace about her Sally could only dream of. Soon, she returned with the dress draped over her arm and sewing things in hand.

Model || Sally and Quinn

Quinn was a little surprised when Sally asked her to do it. She had never expected her to ask her when she suggested she get someone to model it for her. At first she thought of turning her down but she couldn’t say no after looking at the girl. She was just so sweet and kind and she was such a dear to Treven. “I guess I can” she said with a shrug. She then thought ‘I guess’ wasn’t a good enough answer.”Okay, I’ll do it” she smiled curious to see what it looked like.

"Thank you." She smiled brightly, always pleased when she got compliments, but they also always, made her cheeks a faint rosy red. And this time was no exception. She shifted the fabrics in her hand a bit, nervously. Not that she was bored, she still had yet to get used to being out and about without her brother. Being able to stop and chat with people. She nodded at Mary's comment though. "It's why some people get a role so much easier in theater, they know how to uh- walk the walk I suppose..."

Color Conundrum || Sally & Mary

Mary wasn’t completely sure of if askign Sally about her clothes was a good idea but she felt the cumplusion dto do somjust like she did when she did anything. She tended to follow her gut and most of the time it worked out rather well. “I’d imagine they fit you very nicely.” Mary was sure she spent more time on the costume pieces she did for those shows she was talking about before. “I guess you are right about that.” She was referring to the fact that she wasn’t like many girls around here and that showed a lot more then she wanted it to.

[restlessragdoll]

She smiled, she also loved having opinions on her outfits. Her brother always said they were great, and beautiful. And complimented htem. But he was hardly fashion savvy and he definitely didn't know much about women's fashion. So it was nice having people who would give her real opinions. And they were always so sweet about it. Sally's eyes lit up at Quinn's suggestion, but she didn't think of friends, since she had... well Treven. And a few of the theater kids but that was it. "Quinn? C-could you model it? Maybe? I don't really know anyone else who would... and it's just about your size too..." Which was another reason  Sally herself couldn't model it. It wouldn't fall right.

Model || Sally and Quinn

"It’s okay, dear" she smiled. She liked having Sally around it brought a new atmosphere into the house. "Your welcome" she told the girl while looking at the other design she had sketched. "The are all so lovely. You’re having trouble, perhaps what you need is a model maybe one of your friends can do that for you" she suggested. She then smiled seeing the girl grin at mentioning Treven. She had a feeling and a mother always knows. 

[restlessragdoll]

She smiled a bit wider at him. She didn't want him to think bad of her brother, he wasn't bad, in fact he was a really good guy. A Doctor.  He saved lives. He just was trying to protect her. That's all.  "I did! And a few extras!" She smiled, a slight chuckle escaping. She loved her color set and though most were still in good condition, with so many choices of colors she didn't go through them a lot. She did want to find another set though. This one would wear eventually and she needed replacements for them. Thankfully she had time for that though. "Have you tried watercolor pencils? It's what I used to use they're easy to work with." She liked them at least, she'd had years to learn how to use them. And perfected it. "I'm... considering my own line... s-some day. Maybe..."

Pick a Color || Zane and Sally

"Oh," Zane furrowed his brow at the reason, almost about to wonder if her brother was an asshole, until she laughed, and he decided it was fine enough, at least until something made him think otherwise. "At least you got the rainbow out of it. I wish that was how my stepmom decided to try and shut me up. Wouldn’t have to spend so much time trying to blend colored pencils." He sighed, just a bit dramatic, "I have to get my own colors, and she still’s on my back twenty-four, seven." A slightly grin spread across Zane’s features when she showed him her sketchpad, and he looked over the dress, biting his lip as he made sure to notice the details of the design, wondering what it was for, "Cool!"
