[ 003 | video | hair: blue (for now), bobbed ]

[exmarksthe.livejournal.com]

[Ramona appears in the mirror holding scissors and a flat iron. She has cut her hair shorter (into a bit of a bob) and straightened it, but it's still the same blue it was before. Several different boxes of hair dye sit on a table next to her - red, pink, mauve, magenta, purple, green, pine green, lime green, sky blue, navy blue, midnight blue, black, sable, orange, tangerine, blond, platinum, gold, silver, crystal, ruby, sapphire, emerald, and a few that might not even exist on the color spectrum. She pauses for a moment before starting to speak.]

Well, if I'm gonna be here a while, and from the looks of things, I am [glaring off to the side, presumably at the absent Queen] I figure I might as well try to keep things interesting for myself. Haven't touched my hair in a few months now other than to re-dye it, and by my standards, that's like decades.

So help me pick, people. Which color says "Help, I'm stuck in an alternate dimension and I can't get out" best?

[EDIT: Later in the day, Ramona eventually decides on a vivid reddish-pink, seen here.]

It's just something I do. Variety is the spice of cliched sayings and all that jazz.

Oh. I see. I guess that makes some sense. I still don't get it though...

... then again, I come from a world where it's possible for someone to be born with green hair and I can magically age myself up by about eight years so maybe it's just me.

So you basically come from anime wor— wait, you can what?

[uberlikehermama.livejournal.com]

What's anime?

And umm... yeah, I can turn into an adult age form. It's just the body though, not the mind.

[exmarksthe.livejournal.com]

Good, I was wondering what your, uh, "natural" state of being would be in that case. How does one get a power like that?

[uberlikehermama.livejournal.com]

Well, umm... besides being able to use magic, I'm not really sure. I know we only found out it was possible around when I was six, but I don't know how they figured out the spell for me, only that they taught it to me. My friend's Einhart and Lio can do it too, but I'm not sure how Einhart learned it or how Lio developed hers either...

[exmarksthe.livejournal.com]

Huh.

And some people just figure out their ABC's and 123's at that age.

[uberlikehermama.livejournal.com]

Heheh... well, I didn't learn how to do it when I was six, that's just when we found out about it...
