New to the city, Emma had decided to take a walk around and see what she could find. She had found herself in the shopping district, and wandered around, looking in windows. It was certainly all interesting, but she wasn't quite sure that she wanted to buy any of it. She sighed to herself, things had been so different since she left home, but she had, blissfully, been able to keep her home as clean and organized as she wished.
She smiled to herself and looked around, deciding on impulse to enter a shop. It was unlike her, but she was glad to have done it. She entered the building and looked around a bit. It didn't seem to be the type of shop she'd normally enter. "Hello?" she called out, politely.

โIt is a curious thing, the death of a loved one. We all know that our time in this world is limited, and that eventually all of us will end up underneath some sheet, never to wake up. And yet it is always a surprise when it happens to someone we know. It is like walking up the stairs to your bedroom in the dark, and thinking there is one more stair than there is. Your foot falls down, through the air, and there is a sickly moment of dark surprise as you try and readjust the way you thought of things.โ โ โโ โโโ โโโโ โโโโโ โโโโโโ โโโโโโโ
I'm feeling excited. || I'm speaking to a customer. || I'm wearing classy casual || I have $200 on me and $800 stashed in the bank. || I have feelings for no one.
โ โโ โโโ โโโโ โโโโโ โโโโโโ โโโโโโโ
โYou look stunning regardless the hairstyle! You have the perfect face shape-โ undoubtedly an honest confession on Rigelโs end. He never had the bone in him to lie about anything at all. Flattered by his words, the woman chuckled, a pink hue dusting her pale porcelain cheeks like small poppy flowers blooming upon a lush field, while she made a payment at the receptionist.
โThank you, Rigel!โ she exclaimed, and heโd wave dismissively with a lighthearted chuckle. โNo! Thank you!โ
Slender fingers ran through his hair, brushing his navy blue locks away from his features, just briefly revealing the faintest of burn scar concealed beneath his black eye patch. His golden orb scanned the establishment, satisfied at the lovely off white wallpaper, and the polished wooden floorboards clean enough to reflect oneโa silhouette. He spun in his swivel chair, a small wave of the hand as he bid farewell to his umpteenth customer within the three hours of his shopโs opening time. Everything in this establishment screamed nostalgia, and he had decorated the entire interior in remembrance of his wife. He recalled the day he met her, very much like how it is now. A cloudy day, with small rays of sunlight seeping through the gaps of the cloud, accompanied by a slow, gentle breeze. She timidly stepped into his shop, her arms wrapped around her own body as though wary of the new surroundings, clenching even tighter when he had approached her. He laughed at the memory, cutting himself short when the overhead bell jingled, and the glass door opened.
โWelcome!โ he greeted, digging his heel into the floor to stop the spin. Golden orbs first fell upon her thick, lovely raven tresses that were surprisingly long enough to touch the ground, before glancing at the owner of said hair. Pale skin, and lovely baby blues that could counter the clear blue sky, and the clear ocean waters of Mykronos. An excited smile cracked upon his features, and heโd strode towards the reception desk, gesturing to them, that he handle the customer instead.
โGood morning! My, you have such lovely hair-!โ crystal clear gold met baby blues, an excited glint flashing across his gaze. โDo you have any particular hairstyle in mind? Short? Medium length? Or just a small trim to get rid of split ends?โ much alike a child who just received a new toy, he was very excited. There was so much he could do with her hair. He could curl it, or put it up in the olden hairstyle of a beehive, or perhaps even a more oriental style. She had the thickness and the length, it was almost a dream come true. But before he stresses her out with his question, he figured heโd allow her some time to get comfortable before she made a decision.
โWould you like a hair wash?โ

Rigel never regarded himself as a professional despite his achievements, and it always came as a shock when others thought of him as so. Hairdressing was something he saw as a hobby rather than a source of income. A never ending passion that has grown, and has been growing within him more than twenty years go. โNo, donโt say that! Iโm just your average hairdresser-โ flattered, and equally as embarrassed, Rigel waved his hands dismissively while small chuckles rumbled within his chest. Slender fingers ran across the polished wooden finishing of the counter while he waited for her answer, and heโd laugh in return at her inability to decide. Normally, theyโd already at least have a brief idea before they came, but Rigel wasnโt complaining. The day was slow, and most of his appointments were already over and done with.
โDonโt you worry about that, Iโll run you through the few haircuts.โ he flipped the magazine open, the intoxicating scent of fresh printed pages attacking his nostrils, yet also accompanied by the scented fragrance of lavender lingering around the establishment. Golden orbs lifted to meet her porcelain features, running along her cheekbone, down to her jawline. Itโs not too round nor angular, a nice oval shaped face that doesnโt quite limit her choices of hairstyles. โWhat length would you prefer? Short, shoulder, mid back, or just a small trim?โ his gaze moved from her jawline, to the volume of her dark tresses, where clear excitement flashed across his golden eye. But before any more were spoken, the receptionist returned with a cup of freshly brewed rose tea, and guided her to the hair basin, where Rigel would soon follow after.
With a small towel wrapped around her shoulders, and a barberโs cape around her neck, he urged for her to resr against the recliner. It was only then, he felt how much thicker her hair really was. โYour hairโs really thick- itโs amazing!โ he exclaimed, rolling his sleeves up to his forearms.
โI can layer your hair, but I wonโt do any thinning. Itโll be a shame to rid of your volume.โ he paused, โIs the temperature okay?โ
โPerhaps not too short either.. Somewhere around the shoulders down to your current length would be fine. Your hairโs soft, so thereโs no need to worry about them curling into different directions either--โ he ran his fingers through his wet locks, the mint shampoo leaving a cooling sensation on her scalp while he massaged them into her head. He was gentle with the small kneads, brushing his fingers down small sections of her hair. The fragrance was soothing, and heโd believe heโs quite good at scalp massages. โSo, any idea? Thereโs no rush, let me know when youโve decided.โ

โCross the line, and you'll get hurt. Trust me, you'll regret it next time.โ
Residence: 1504 Lumiere Housing District โOccupation: Cut n' Stab Tattoo Artist / Metal Worker โบ รท(`[ยค*_ _ _*ยค]ยด)รท โป The gift check that was given to him by Hikaru was reserved for a later time, though during the moment in which his mistress was allowing a friend to enter the house, he had to make sure everything's okay for the two of them, at least before he went to work. His day-off would not start till tomorrow, so that would be the perfect time for the paycheck to be used on his next date with Isaac. Right now, he was just done with the first client that came for his services, and the silent gesture of farewell was exchanged before the client exited the area. With his task done, he took off his gloves, disposing into the trash bin, and even cleaning up his tools before checking outside the tattoo studio. There was a male looking frustrated at the weather, so casually, the raven came to ask the person.
"Good morning, are you here for a haircut or tattoo?" his tone was a bit flat as he questioned, but it was without malice. But there was a chance that the other was just someone who chose to stay because of the rain, and not because of trying out the new hair styles, or even the prized designs from the tattoo book. He kept his hands inside the jeans pocket as he waited for the response.

Nonetheless, the raven accepted the handshake as he introduced himself as well, "Name's Corbin. Pleasure to meet you as well, sir." At the mention of tattoo designs, the tattoo artist wordlessly departed, retrieving the book that Isaac gave him, together with the portfolio of more designs that was compiled into a clear book. "You are free to look at them. Once you make up your mind, I will show you the way to the tattoo studio section of this establishment to get that design done onto your preferred body part," he explained, keeping the instructions as simple as possible. He then tucked a section of his hair behind his ear, looking at the window once again. Yeah, looked like it would take a few more hours before the rain would calm down.

โI read once that the ancient Egyptians had fifty words for sand, and the Eskimos had a hundred words for snow. I wish I had a thousand words for love, but all that comes to mind is the way you move against me while you sleep,
And there are no words for that.โ โ โโ โโโ โโโโ โโโโโ โโโโโโ โโโโโโโ
I'm feeling distressed || I'm speaking to no one. || I'm wearing flashy clothes || I have $200 on me and $800 stashed in the bank. || I have feelings for no one.
โ โโ โโโ โโโโ โโโโโ โโโโโโ โโโโโโโ
โOh, hun, I was hoping I could catch you at the salon today.โ
She started down the walkway, her heels clicking sharply against the hardwood floor as she passed the curious crowd. Dressed in all but a small, black bralette top and a pair of high-waist silver, wide leg trouser, the vixen easily attracted the gaze of passers by, like a magnetic force that drew curious gaze upon the curvatures of her hourglass frame. โDon't you worry, dear, I've left you in capable hands. Just tell the receptionist you have a booking under Etana, and youโre set.โ
โIโm not convinced just.. yet.โ countered the cheeky fox, though her words were spoken in a lighthearted tease, rather than distrust. Soft chuckles could be heard on the other end, followed by a soft, dramatic gasp, and she could perfectly picture the way he looked: golden hues widened with a hand resting against his lips in shock. โIf there is so much as a single negative comment from you, I'll close down my shop.โ โHah! she laughed, shifting her phone to the other side, while her right hand now twirled a stray lock of between her index finger and thumb. โNow I'm convinced โ while they both knew it was impossible that she would file a single complaint, it was still comforting to hear that he had valued each and every single customer of his own. Refraining from keeping him on the line longer than she had attended, the fox ended the call with a kiss goodbye, and tossed her device back into the small, beige purse she carried.
The overhead bell jingled, like the quiet melodies of a familiar Christmas carol, cheerful, and easing to the soul as a cool breeze from the cooler blew against her pale, unblemished skin. Therain has stopped a few days prior, yet somehow, the fox wasnโt quite ready for the clear skies of blue, despite her dislike for the heavy rain and thunder storms. The salon smelled of a flowery fragrance, of tulips and roses, along with a fine hint of cinnamon, already easing the tension off her stiffened shoulders. Golden hues scanned the familiar interior, filling the broad space with echoes of her clicking heels as she strode towards the counter. โHello, lovely. I believe I have an appointment under Etana?โ she answered, feeling the soft sways of her snow white tails, like a waterfall pooling against her feet, like fallen snowflakes in mid-winter. Guided to the seat in the centre, the fox sat upon the maroon, leather seat, feeling the soft hug of the cushion against the curve of her back, and the way her body sunk into the soft leather comforts. Her eyes flicked upwards, this time met with the clear reflection of her own image upon the mirror, of a faint blush dusting her porcelain cheeks, of trimmed eyebrows, and earthy colour of her eyeshadow that blended against the faint dust of bronzer upon her features. Her hair gleamed beneath the gentle white interior lights, smooth and silken, yet she could easily spot the split ends that had been bothering her within the past week or two.
Slender fingers brushed through her hair as her brows furrowed into a loose knot, feeling the noticeable outward flicks of her split ends from the river of ink black. A quiet breath escaped her matte, cherry red lips, half frustrated, and half restless, knowing she had not looked her very best.

Current Mood: Happy โ Current Company: ???? โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ (Ooc: -- )
The heavy rains, and flowing streets had provided the olden hero with the perfect environment for training he needed, but the sunshine and clear skies were well appreciated. He had his fair share of trails during the turbulent weather from the difficultly moving from location to location, to the occasional ruffian. He had even gotten into a nice match with a divine, a giant tiger who tested his skills to their core. The hero never was one to stop training, and as of now he certainly had a new trial ahead of him but it was one he aimed to tackle and succeed at with all of the energy and grace he put towards any other task. The Salon.
Etana had to admit that he initially had his reserves about the location, and of course his disappointment that it was not indeed a combat arena, but that meant little when he found that it had a place for him. A salon was an odd occupation for a hero of his stature, but Etana had a glowing record. The years had allowed him many skills, and many lives. That of the beautician was one he had mastered even before his first death for his people valued beauty, and of course so did the many royals he fought for. Satisfaction was merely apart of Etana's being and whether it be in battle, bed, or beauty he rose to meet the challenge.
His credentials had been taken care of by those that branded him and so he set about work and so far his customers seemed to truly appreciate his hands and at the end of this stormy weather? He had his appointments. He had been at the Salon all day, but there as no complaint from the golden-eyed warrior and so far neither from those who had left the chairs he had offered. He did his best to make people feel invited and welcome, to conversation and make them feel loved and cared for, and of course make sure they left completely satisfied in whatever manner it took.
He would teat his newest appointment no differently either. It wasn't soon after Vixen walked in and sat down that two figures could be seen leaving a particular bay. The woman leaving had a rather bright smile, while the man behind her walk her to the door, a boisterous but deep voice trailing past "Seven-heads! It took me quite a day to cut down the fearsome beast and in the end it was Ninurta who took credit for my accomplishment." they stood together at the door for a moment "My dear, any reward I could have gotten from such a monumental task would still not shine as brightly as you do right now." the man taking the woman's hand and laying a gentle kiss on it "Now go out and slay some beasts of your own. I will be here." he said.
The woman left and left him standing there, hands on his hips in a moment of monumental pride. It was easier to get a look at him a gentleman wearing stand black slacks, his belt was white colored with a golden bucket bearing the countenance of some manner of predatory bird. His wrote a button-up shirt covered in intricate golden accents that seemed to tale some manner of story, but it was completely unbuttoned at the moment for some reason showing off his musculature. The strangest part was the fact that he was clearly wearing a sword on his side. He seemed strange, but not threatening instead still wearing that confident and rather welcoming smile on his face even as he turned to face the receptionist. It didn't take them long to point to Vixen.
The man turned to her and seemed to observe her for a moment before he finally spoke "Greetings! I am Etana, you must be Vixen." he said "You are indeed a vision of great beauty. It appears I'll have the honor of being at your service today. Come along, everything is clean and ready for you." he motioned for her to follow as he headed to his workstation which was..immaculately clean. The faint sounds of music faint in the background keeping the mood in the place light. He patted the seat so they could get started. She didn't have to wait long.
