(OTA! Happy holidays! If you know Fin, Willy, Phouka, or Winter, feel free to assume they gave you an invite. If not, you can say your pup got an invite through a friend of a friend, someone who knows someone, ect. It IS invite over (no gate crashing pups please, Fin's a giver and would want everyone to feel included), but the pups hosting the party are pretty active and I believe they know almost everyone in the game. And the people they don't know surely know people who do. Even if you only met them once, you got an invite somehow! This gathering post is open all week, and beyond!)

"Ah, I have been in London so long and the paps like to take pictures of Fin. Someone is bound to recognize me from many years ago. And I do not age. Our options were leave London or rely on a glamour. And I could not uproot Fin, I would never dream of even asking. And so...a new look. Do you like my face?" he asked. The only thing about him that hadn't changed were his eyes were stil the rich emerald green, but they looked different with his new complexion.

[akatawitch]

Yes.

But Sunny wasn't about to just say it, so she set her face in her best, 'you're pretty and you know it' expression and admitted, "I appreciate that you learned to take care of that hair."

[willysilver]

"I am still learning," he admitted. "Often I admit defeat and use magic to take the tangles out. But I am learning and I have many years to master this mane. It is completely different from the hair I had before. That was like silken strands. It rarely tangled. But I have found there are many potions and products- oils and treatments to keep it healthy. I rather enjoy it."

[akatawitch]

Sunny nodded. "It's drier, as well as different texture. Best way to keep it from tangling, though, is to braid it."

[willysilver]

"I do not know how to braid my hair," he said. "What could I do to tempt you to do it? What would you wish in return for such a favor?"

[akatawitch]

Sunny blinked, surprised. "I'd have to think about that?" she said, uncertainty lifting it into a question. She didn't mind, in theory, but making wishes off the top of your head was a one-way ticket to some Monkey's Paw shit.

[willysilver]

"We shall arrange a day for you to come braid it, then, and you will have time to think," he said. It didn't even occur to him that she might not want to, or that she may not have time. She had mentioned it and she did her own hair so nicely and he liked her...he would gladly sit for her. No, whether or not she would do it was never a question in his mind.

[akatawitch]

Sunny actually didn't mind at all, even wanted to do it. What she wanted in exchange, though, she had no idea. But given she knew what he wanted and how to provide it...

She nodded. "Sure. I can do that."

[willysilver]

Willy pulled his phone out of his pocket, unlocked it, and handed it to her.

"Please, put your number in. Fin says this is a much more polite way to contact people," he said.

[akatawitch]

Much more polite than what?

Sunny however decided she didn't want to know. So she deftly took the phone from his fingers, added her contact information, and then sent herself a text message so she would have his in turn before handing the phone back. "In general," she said, "Sundays are good days for me."

[willysilver]

"Sunday would be lovely. Noon? I will have a meal and tea waiting for you," he said. "Will that give you enough time to think of a fair exchange?"

[akatawitch]

"I'll let you know if it isn't," Sunny said, which was the best she could do as far as an honest reply.

[willysilver]

"Excellent, my friend," he beamed. "Is there anything I need to do in preparation? Comb it or oil? You must teach me all you know and, of course, I shall repay your kindness."

[akatawitch]

Sunny shook her head. "Keep doing what you know how to do, I'll make my assessment when we meet up."

[willysilver]

"I shall," he said. "Now you should go enjoy yourself. Dance and eat and have a merry time," Willy smiled.

[akatawitch]

It crossed Sunny's mind briefly that she should ask him to dance, but she wasn't sure where exactly the thought had come from.and it didn't seem like a good idea. So she smiled, said, "Merry Christmas," and went to find another dance partner.
