[retellers]

I enjoyed my time with everyone there last night. That is good enough for me, I think.

[chanteuser]

[ goat just try the mud mask, damn. ]

...

[ she lifts a hand and wiggles it. ]

Did you get your nails done?

[retellers]

[ goat has no idea that alex (or rather, becks) wants him to try it on right now! ]

Yes... Ochako did them for me.

[chanteuser]

[ time to let him know. ]

Oh, show me?

[ also: ] And you had no problem just going ahead and letting her do that there and then?

[retellers]

[ he shows off his rainbow glittery nails to alex. welp pronouns but it was probably obvious by now ]

Should I have had a problem...?

[chanteuser]

[ bless all of you for keeping this up. ]

No. But you're pretty reluctant to try the mud mask, so I wondered if it was a beauty product thing in general.

[ hmmmmm ]

They look nice. Ochako must've really had fun with all that nail painting.

[retellers]

Oh. Did you want me to use it now?

[chanteuser]

I'll do it with you, if you've got any concerns.

[retellers]

It is not that I'm concerned... but I don't know how to use it.

[chanteuser]

[ oh. ]

You just put it on your face. Leave it off your eyes and your mouth, just the skin around it.

Let it sit for ten to fifteen minutes, then you wash it off.

[1/2]

[retellers]

That sounds simple enough.

[ and because goat does not care, he reaches up to remove his hood and mask. ]

[retellers]

[ and then he puts on the mud mask instead ig ]

[chanteuser]

[ wow this is the first time there hasn't been a complete production ahead of a leader unmasking.

alex just laughs, pleased, before making a motion at him with her hand. ]

Here, let me help. It can be kind of tricky without a mirror, to get it all on.

[retellers]

All right... [ he steps closer! do as you will, alex. ]

[chanteuser]

[ she will do so! making sure it's properly on his face, and tucking his hair behind his ears so it doesn't get caught in it. ]

There.

[retellers]

Thank you... So I take it off after fifteen minutes? How do I know if it worked?

[chanteuser]

Yup. That’s how it goes.

Your skin feels cleaner, and normally a bit tighter? But in a good way.

[retellers]

I don't know if I've ever had that problem... but that is good to know.

[chanteuser]

We like to invent a lot of stuff to deal with a lot of problems that may or may not be real. But at least it's fun while we're using those things.
