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.]

[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. ]
action;
[About 95% of this store.]
But I don't know if any of them would suit me... Hemlines have only gotten higher and higher from what I've seen!
action;
[ Considering Fumi probably has the longest hemline among her companions, and well... that's not saying much. ]
But it makes it easier to move around, in the long run. And I think something shorter might look cute on you.
action;
[A tilt of her head.]
The shortest I've had to try here is my school uniform.... but I suppose if it's better for mobility....
action;
[ Because there will always be perverts. ]
action;
[ . . . ]
Then maybe... since some dresses that are shorter have cute prints...
[that she wants to try...... if Mom thinks that it suits her then maybe it'll be ok]
You truly think it won't look strange on me?
action;
[ Show yourself off, Lili!! ]
action;
..... Except. She doesn't mind the idea of shopping right now - and it does serve as a rather suitable distraction. So the search for a dress for her begins and
She pauses, bringing a blue one off the rack and showing it to Otome.]
Your opinion?
[Which she... values.... as an older woman - don't read too much into it!]
action;
[ And it'll probably show off those legs, finally. If you got it, flaunt it. ]
action;
But she's still going to be a little flustered because Mom?? Mom, you're so much more confident and forward than her.]
Really...? And it's not too short?
action;
action;
Her answer comes a little quietly, even shyly despite Lili's Everything:]
I want to wear it....
[So.... she'll acclimate.
But is that okay to say? Is it alright to admit something like that?]
action;
[ SHE'S PROUD OF YOU, LILI. ]
action;
[Oh, that makes her heart happy.... she can try new things and be encouraged? Even though it's something as shallow as appearance that she normally wouldn't care for, this is fine. Her fingers tighten around the fabric for a moment before loosening so she doesn't wrinkle it too badly.]
I have a few necklaces.... so we shouldn't need to buy more.
action;
[ MOM GUSHING, it was bound to happen.... ]
action;
TURNING RED, TURNING SO RED.]
Your... counsel is appreciated.
[Embarrassing............ but then Lili's waving a hand - ]
N-Now come, you should get something as well!
action;
action;
[Be a little flashy, Mom.]
action;
[ When she's off-duty! ]
action;
Still though, Lili's content with that as she goes to poke through the scarves and - immediately goes for the "or two".
Holding up this and this!]
Ooh, what of these?
action;
Oh...! The designs are lovely, aren't they? [ Look at that purple one, whoa-- ]
action;
[Lili has an eye for this sort of thing....]
Does this one suit your tastes?
[Lifting up the purple one!]
action;
[ It's really pretty, after all. ]
