    Summary

    She’s out of context here. Without her usual backdrop of white-blooming flowers and honey-wood panelling along the walls, there’s something new and sharp to her face, an unexpected edge. Apart from her dress, whose neckline is lower than usual, there is lipstick involved, real lipstick, not the smear of tinted chapstick she wears during their lessons: a proper, opaque, glossy thing, deep and bloody red.

    It looks like it’d stain, if she were to kiss someone.
