Thank you, Thorn-san.

[Now she touches one of the studs - gently, carefully.

[The pain was nothing again - a second or two. She was more aware of how close he was, how weirdly intimate this whole thing is...]

Can I please have the mirror?

[Excited again.]

[He hands over the mirror]

There you go.

Re: thorn

[wonderlandgirl]

Thank you...

[She's excited as she takes it, delighted when she turns her head to see the new studs catching the light.]

Oh, they look lovely! Thank you so much, I'm so glad we did this.

Re: thorn

[justfuckingtryit]

...yeah. Me, too.

Thanks, Wednesday.

Re: thorn

[wonderlandgirl]

It's no problem at all! I like doing things like this with you.

[She gets to her feet.]

Is there anything else you'd like to do, now?

Re: thorn

[justfuckingtryit]

...mm, we probably have some time.

How about you pick, since I chose that one?

Re: thorn

[wonderlandgirl]

Um...

[Wednesday smiles, a little: a little nervous again.]

Well, there is something I'd like to do, if you don't think it's too much. I'd - I'd sort of like to hug you, if it's okay..

Re: thorn

[justfuckingtryit]

[Surprise, and then as it abates, affection, behind that]

...yeah. That's fine.

Re: thorn

[wonderlandgirl]

Really?

[She brightens immediately.]

Thank you, Thorn-san.

[She steps toward him, and wraps her arms about his neck. Eyes closed, she exhales.

[This... feels good.]

Re: thorn

[justfuckingtryit]

[Puts his arms around her, a little awkward]

[She can feel it, this time - that he's not entirely comfortable being touched - but also, that he's fond of her, and is fine with this, and is glad that she asked]

Re: thorn

[wonderlandgirl]

[That's as much as Wednesday could have hoped for - more, even. It's enough to know that, somehow, he's glad.

[She's happy to have been allowed this much, for the time.]

... thank you.

[She's wanted to do that for a while.]

Re: thorn

[justfuckingtryit]

...it's fine.

[And he means that]
