The Wilderness Wars {RP}

[TheHayleyDoll]

"I just asked why she bothered with long hair. Long hair is very annoying and I don't get how anybody could possibly stand it. Too much effort youcould put into something fun!"

[Miranda_]

"It doesn't personally affect you, so why moan about it? I have long hair too, and you aren't saying anything to me. I do normally have it up, but there's nothing here for that."

[spirit_queen]

"Oh, I can lend you a nice little comb for that." Jass said.

[Miranda_]

"I used to have combs each side, or put it up elabourately, in the geisha style," sighed Kaori. "I doubt they even have geishas, now."

[spirit_queen]

"Well, we don't have the time to do that, but I know a simple trick with a similar effect to do with one comb." Jass said.

[Silent_Wolf]

"I think they might, lemme check the books 'round here. .. OOOO! Memoirs of a Geisha? Sounds interesting." Tanith had found it in the fictional section, but she immediately went to the author's note in the back. ".. The guy who wrote this says he talked to an actual former geisha so his story would be accurate."

Ooc: That's an absolutely beautiful book, I adore it and the movie rendition. ^^

[Miranda_]

"Try then, with the comb. And how long ago was that book written?"

[spirit_queen]

Jass brushed Kaori's hair, then carefully twisted it around several times. She made she she had the right spot and a comb with long enough teeth, then placed the comb in. The whol thing took only a few minutes. "Done! It's not nearly as extravagant as something a true geisha would wear, I'm sure, but I heard geishas spent hours on their hair alone."

Ooc: That's true, as I looked it up once. O_o

[Silent_Wolf]

"Lemme check here... Well, the woman was a geisha during something called World War ...eye eye? Oh, 2. Dur." She hit herself in the face. "And that was in the mid 1900s judging from the history books.. and this book was written in the early 2000s."

Ooc: Yeah, it's crazy. Plus they went for ages without washing their hair; I'd go nuts!

[Miranda_]

"I used to spend a while on my hair, but since a lot of the time I was imitating geishas, not actually being one, I didn't have to spend as much time as they did. I could reinvent myself in this form however I wanted; I prefered to spend time in my real form, too, but I can't do that unless we can somehow get out of this terrible place and find somewhere with grass and trees. They must still exist, surely?"
