voicemail.
[Following the "record your voicemail at the beep" message--]
What? Who gave you the right to order me around? -- W-Wait, was that the beep?
I wasn't prepared--!! [a whispered hiss:] How do you get this thing to stop-?!
[Beep!
You know the drill! IC Inbox for voice/video/action threads for whatever occasion.]

[ And the hair accessories are really cute. ]
action;
Then that sounds acceptable.
[Even though her face looks pretty excited so - also probably better than acceptable.]
action;
Shall we? I'd like to try for something a bit better than "acceptable", but I'll let the store itself do the demonstrating.
action;
Then she looks back up to face her, admittedly a little embarrassed.]
Y-You don't have to escort me...!
[lili just be cute with mom for once]
action;
[ 125% SMILE. ]
action;
I -
But...!
Is that really-
[as;dlfjadf mmph.
She's obviously floundering for a moment but.... but there's been no denying Lili's loneliness these past few days just as she had to dwell on the thought of Yona not being around. So this is embarrassing and unnecessary but also.... kinda nice.
So she takes Otome's arm.
Admittedly with a little petulant mumble.]
Why do you even care so much...
action;
[ Maybe because you keep adopting kids with issues, Otome. ]
Is it really that strange?
action;
[Honestly no.]
You don't mind your own business. You go out of your way for people that you don't even know. You may be a medical professional, but I'm quite healthy - so your interest makes no sense!
[ok so now she's a little fussed because she really doesn't understand]
action;
To begin with, I was taught that kindness was never a bad idea. And secondly-- [ another finger. ] I like you, so of course I care.
action;
[JUST SAYING. And she's not... saying that Otome is tricking her, not really because Lili is a hilariously trusting soul once she has a positive opinion of someone, but she's been tricked before. So that's not really going to resound with her.]
But you're.... still too honest.
[huff huff]
action;
action;
[You're just embarrassing, Mom.
what does Lili really want? does Lili even know?]
action;
[ There, there. The cute pink store is in sight. ]
action;
She's just... not going to answer that! Because yes, the store is in sight!]
Oh.... It's quaint...
action;
[ IN WE GO. ]
action;
everything is really cute... So cute... Lili automatically lets go of Otome's arm then to immediately start perusing because she's a simple girl at heart.
Though admittedly she's also thinking about people she knows and how some of these might make good gifts...
A glance to Otome.]
Were you looking for anything in particular?
[Or did Mom just want to go shopping...]
action;
[ Because these assorted silk scarves are hella cute and Leon won't give a damn. ]
action;
Do you normally associate with useless men as well?
[Because even Lili has to admit that... yeah aside from Kashuu, it's not like she has anyone to talk to about pretty clothes.
Though a look at the silk scarves gets her to nod.]
You would wear that well.
action;
[ Maybe she'll come back to these... for now, though, she's going to guide Lili over to the hair accessories. ]
But I thought you might like these. I think they'd suit someone with longer hair better.
action;
But Lili's being guided over and is honestly sincerely distracted by the hair accessories almost immediately because it's her one vice.
Otome says that though and she tilts her head.]
You don't want one? I could probably affix your hair with it.
[Short hair, don't care.]
action;
[ Otome is a lady who cut her hair because she didn't have the time to fuss over it, honestly. ]
action;
[Another glance over the hairpins. Even if this was meant to treat Lili...]
If not, I work at a hair accessory store. I could find something and set it aside for you.
action;
action;
[A tilt of her head.]
But I don't... really need anything.
[She just likes looking at things and shopping for others.]
action;
[ Which is like 95% of the store. ]
