WHO Mona & Elia WHEN November 19th, afternoon WHERE Backstage at Virtue & Vice WHAT Girls prepping for their night out
Every time Mona had gone into the Virtue & Vice tent she was left with the feeling that she very much did not belong among these women. There was Elia, of course, who Mona still insisted was the most beautiful woman she'd had ever met in real life, and only made more beautiful by how lovely she was to Mona. Then there was Ilinca, all dark hair and dark eyes and the same height as Mona but always in heels that made her tall. And now, Mona's newest source of How Do These Woman Exist? was the singer Sylvie, whose rather generous assets made Mona think about investing in some sort of push up bra and whose singing voice had made her stand slack-jawed.
And she'd never even been in the tent during showtime. She was intimidated by their beauty during their rehearsals and just walking around casually. The other women who worked there, the ones she didn't really know by name, were just as ridiculously stunning. No wonder the tent was popular with patrons. They got to see actual goddesses dancing around for them.
Mona imagined that if she were a man she would probably do anything at all to just be near to one of them for the night.
This afternoon when she showed up in the tent she was in her usual off-hours uniform - jeans and a grey shirt -, her hair pulled back into a messy ponytail and ready for the hairdressers to do their magic on her. (Knowing this place, the hairdressers might be doing literal magic with her hair. Maybe they had some sort of hair witch back there.)
Mona spotted Elia as soon as she came inside and her face brightened immediately, breaking into a delighted smile. "Elia!" she called out in greeting, moving towards the older woman.
