It had been a long day, but as promised it didn't hurt. Cass had widened her mouth a bit, made her nose longer and not so turned up, and slanted her eyes slightly downward. These were things she always wished she'd been born with - along with a thinner frame. Now she had that too, which of course necessitated going shopping for a new wardrobe. She needed one anyway, as she could take almost none of her old clothes with her when she left London. Now, with Star's help, she had a wardrobe of clothes she'd never dreamed of wearing before. She was up in her room now with the music up loud, trying on her new clothes. She'd also decided to go entirely the opposite direction with her hair color. They'd dyed her hair black with dark purple streaks. Proper, reticent Lisbet was coming out of her shell. Ramon headed down the hall toward her door. The sound of the old Trogg's song "Wild Thing" made him smile and chuckle as he rapped on the partly open door. "Is it safe to come in? Are you dressed?" "Yes, I'm dressed. Thank you for asking!" "Wow, look at you! You look great!" Ramon exclaimed. "Do you like it...me?" And then she looked at him. "Ohhhhhh, look at YOU! My god...," Lisbet/Katherine gasped. "Tu es tres chaud, monsieur!!" "Just some old stuff I threw on," he shrugged. Of course he knew he looked hot. It was intentional. "I heard what you asked Cass. I also heard what he said in response. This isn't about me, Katherine. It's about what you want. It doesn't matter to me what you look like on the outside...although I did like the previous version of you very much. I like this one very much too!" He came and stood closer, looking in the mirror with her as she admired herself in her new outfit. "J'taime. I feel like a new woman!" "So do I," Ramon grinned. "Her name is Katherine and I was wondering if she would like to go to dinner with me. We have things we need to discuss. After that...whatever! You do feel like going out, don't you? If you're tired, please say so." "I would love to go to dinner with you, Ramon. I do hope you'll button up though." "Mais oui! What if I don't?" he laughed, taunting her. "I'm afraid you would be mobbed." "Put on your shoes, boots or whatever and don't forget to close the window there. I'll be downstairs - buttoned up." ***** Wow, Jo's new Hot Men Outfit is truly that. An excellent runtime addition and wonderful work Jo. Thank you for all the cool clothes, hair and characters you make!! Thank you all for stopping by, your comments and favs. They mean a lot. Tomorrow night, I'll be asking for some volunteers for testing some new eyes. Lovely purple ones. So stay tuned! Have a marvelous Monday! Ray Oh yeah... :) http://youtu.be/gwRrXjWgkaY
