#dorcas x safiya 1

[onceweptarchive]

DORCAS LIKES TO LOOK GOOD,   and no one can fault them for that, even if their attire is not always deemed appropriate. Least of all Safiya, who’s creations are always tried and tested and, most often, stolen by Dorcas before they have a chance to be presented anywhere at all. The wix rarely drops by without expecting to try on some new design, and though they’ve stopped in for a purpose today, that seems to have been lost to both customer and artist.   “   You’re a mad genius, you know.   ”

Dorcas observes themselves with interest, admiring the latest creation. The last article they’ve borrowed is draped over the chaise, their boots are kicked off haphazardly beside them. Dorcas casts a hopeful glance over their shoulder at their friend as they speak again, half teasing.   “   It’s speaking to me. Can’t you hear it? A tiny voice saying ‘Dorcas, take me away from this place.’   ”
