[ here's a semi-smiling face you haven't seen on the network for awhile. ]

I kind of feel I need a change. Is there anyone who can give me a haircut?

OOC: this is the haircut the mun has in mind.

	[Have a video. Now have claws popping out of the large metal wrist gauntlets with an audible, "SNIKT!"] They aren't scissors, but they're sharp. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I usually had to cut my own. Unless I let Pitor do it, but he was a lot better with a paint brush than scissors. [A pause.] I didn't actually use my claws, but I'm sure you can find someone better at it without much trying. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ this is elena's pleasantly surprised face - she wasn't sure shed be able to find anyone here. there was always the salon, but on principle she'd rather have someone living and not keeping her prisoner do it. ] I'd love that. I'm really not sure what I'd want; it's been awhile. [ she's kept her hair straight and long and for years. ] Maybe layers or something. Is that possible?

[ It's something he's done in the past. Maybe he needs something similar now, but it feels too much like forgetting if he'd change anything about himself. Maeve never got the chance to say what she thought about him, visually. She never will. Keeping the status quo as far as his looks go just seems appropriate. ]

It's strange, how something so small and trivial can have such a great impact on how you feel. I hope it works out for you, Elena.

[ all elena has been doing is changing - it's frightening and terrible and unavoidable. this, at least, she can control. she's a different person than she was when she got here. she's spent so much time and fight on keeping her choices, her identity, at home and in here; maybe this is just another way to reclaim both. from keeping her hair straight to differentiate from katherine's (differentiate herself from katherine) to helping kill or condoning the same of so many people for the safety of her loved ones, all she's done is struggle to reclaim both.

so she gets it. small and trivial things matter, almost as much as the bigger picture. ]

I hope so too. How- how are you? Settling in?

[ elena's brows furrow. she gives it a second's thought. ] I guess. [ she certainly has plenty against the dome in general. ] There's something personal about getting your hair cut. I'd rather it be a person. [ or maybe there's just something personal about getting her hair cut after all these years in general, after wearing it simple and straight to differentiate herself from katherine however subconsciously. ]
