Akumi
Dress reference___________
Akumi slowly stepped up the stairs, her dress/Kimono mix trailing elegantly behind her, her bare feet stepped carefully. She was not necessarily small, but she was by far much smaller than the adults, but bigger than the children; her body looked fragile, thin, delicate. She blushed lightly, she felt as though, she had over done it. She had tried to bring some of her culture with her. Her kimono glittered and trailed behind her while the clear lace danced around her legs, she nervously looked around as she entered. She normally was not good with crowds, and this was her first time being to a dance like this. She anxiously searched the crowd for a friendly face.
Squinting against the lights, and her ears twitching at the music she got a little anxious. She crossed her arms just under her breasts, slipping the lace covered arm into the sleeve of her kimono, pulling out a mini rice ball she nervously nibbled on it. Out of the corner of her eye she noticed Kifo and a beautiful lady, perhaps this was the lady she had heard about from Demetria. She felt as though it would be wrong to interfere with their time, so she remained to herself looking down. Her hair was tied up in two buns, she was so used to behind able to hide her face behind her hair but now all she saw were the glittering beads of her crown, the beads that she knew would reflect off her white makeup. Oh dear the white makeup, perhaps others would think she looked weird, perhaps it would be best if she left before anyone got a good look at her.
