[Video] III

 [You see this face? This is the face of someone who needs a great deal of alcohol.

Her hair is actually too big to fit on the video feed. Which means you only see the chicken that's stuck on the top when she bows her head. Which is often enough, because it weighs more then you think it would. Not that it's the only thing on it -- there's every other kind of terrible looking 'decoration' on it, too. She's got a head ache just thinking about brushing it all out.]

Has anyone had any luck getting theirs out?

And the river here is a bit too rocky for any kind of swimming. [Even fishing was difficult.]

My lady might have to wear more time-period appropriate clothing.

[1mistress_nomaster]

[There's a massive dead pan to that.]

If you mean dressing like Lady Harcourt does, you're going to have to shoot me first.

[outsidehistory]

Milady, I cannot shoot you. I do not like using firearms and do not have on on my person.

They have dresses still, my lady, and proper...ah...garments to take the place of your corset and petticoats.

[1mistress_nomaster]

But...

[she looks down at herself. Then gripped onto them as if she was afraid they'd disappear on her.]

I couldn't. It's not proper and...

[outsidehistory]

They will know you are not one of them if you do not blend in, my lady.

[1mistress_nomaster]

I see.

[She's looking down still. Frowning badly.]

Where would one... get some of these clothes?

[outsidehistory]

Cross would probably be able to get them without suspicion. And he would probably be able to more accurately guess the sizes my lady needs.

[1mistress_nomaster]

[This whole thing is just getting worse. And vaguely stress inducing.]

I'll think on it.

[outsidehistory]

My lady can also practice wearing them in the secrecy of your apartment to get used to them. Putting the device face down will keep you safe from being seen by accident as well. Or in my lady's nightstand.

[1mistress_nomaster]

It's not so much that... Just...

[How on earth did one explain it? She felt naked practically thinking of it. Exposed. Vulnerable. Clothing was one of the ways women in her time were allowed to express themselves.]

I'd feel very, very small.

[outsidehistory]

There are items that can sit quite ah...large on one's body, my lady. I have a piece of clothing they call a "hoodie" that is rather large and baggy, it keeps me warm. Women have drapes and shawls that they use as well.

[1mistress_nomaster]

I see. I will look into it, truly. I want to help as much as I can, and I'll do what needs to be done...

[Not quiet what she meant. But she'd figure something out.]

[outsidehistory]

Do not feel that you must do anything, my lady. There are enough of us here to do everything, some just need to have someone behind them to kick them into action.

[1mistress_nomaster]

I'm not very much with out a duty to fill, my lord.

[her smile is a little tired.]

It's not fitting to ask others to do things, and not do it myself. In some things at least.

[outsidehistory]

That is true. I shall work harder at finding something for my lady to do.

[1mistress_nomaster]

Ah, I should be finding it myself, you do not need to rush behind me, you are not one of my subjects.

[outsidehistory]

It keeps me busy and I would much rather be.

[1mistress_nomaster]

Then we have that in common. But truly, I will find something. Clothing is a personal thing at least, but I should be able to manage it.

[outsidehistory]

[He grins a little and nods.]

As you wish, my lady.
