excaliburden: (I do?)

[Altria knows that Wanderer agreed to help her find a dress, but somehow, she wasn't actually expecting him to delve so deeply into finding her one himself.

... He's so honest, isn't he? He said he'd help her, and here he is, helping her to the greatest extent of his abilities. It's so--kind.

She smiles a little to herself despite her embarrassment at this all being for her, and when he picks out a few dresses, her eyes widen. He went fancier than she did--of course he did. He doesn't have the same reluctant qualms she does, where she doesn't think anything too fancy suits her at all. His dresses are better picks for a proper gala.

But he went with red. Because that's what she picked out, right...? Somehow, that makes her heart feel really warm.]


They're... so pretty.

[Really, just absolutely stunning. And while she doesn't think they'll suit her at all....... she doesn't want to do him that sort of disservice when he has put in so much work on her behalf. So instead, she takes a deep breath and tries to put aside all of those thoughts, at least briefly. Briefly, she tries to think she could be the kind of person who would wear dresses like that.]

Can I... try them on?
