First topic message reminder :

(Cause the old thread won't split.)

Shane looked at Matt and tilted his head "Hm, that would be odd to see you in a different haircut, but it could be good, if you pick the right one."

Matt snickered. "What you call a haircut Thalia calls, and I quote" He made finger quotes for emphasis here "the dragged through the hedge backwards after being attacked with a blunt hedge trimmer look" He smirked. "I told him it wasn't a hedge trimmer, it was a pair of shears. " He grinned. "And craft scissors which for the record, suck at cutting hair." He nodded. "then she threatened to shave my head." He shrugged. "Which I don't think I can pull off personally. "

"You used craft scissors? Duuude," Ellie said. "That's impressive you don't look more ragged than you do."

Shane laughed and nodded again before shaking his head "Well, it's still a haircut, even if it wasn't an intentional look" He joked

Matt snickered "I use whatever I can grab man. I hate it getting longer and it's not like we have a hairdresser on board or something. It starts getting into my eyes, I get pissed off and I take to it with whatever I have. " He shrugged. "Short hair is a pain, but growing it out again's an even bigger pain so screw it."

Shane went quiet at that, thinking about it. Hm, they didn't have a hairdresser. "Maybe Skye can do that? Don't they both work on Mourn's fur when he lets them?"

"Dunno if combing fur's the same thing. Thalia insists she CAN cut it, i just want him in a good mood if she's gonna have scissors" He laughed. Yeha he was kidding.

"Maybe Armin can learn to be a hairdresser. He seems like the sort of person who would be good at it," Ellie suggested.

Shane chuckled then shrugged "Well, there can be more than one hairdresser. Maybe that would be something Sawna would be interested in?"

"She drinks blood and heals, and I know absolutely nothing else about her," Ellie said. "Now I feel kinda bad for not finding out more! Do you think she's good at cutting hair?"

"She's also not bad at fishing." Matt nodded. "and sleeps during the day. We could ask her, but she probably won't be up till later."

Shane looked to Matt at that and tilted his head "When did you go fishing with her?" He asked, obviously he hadn't been keeping up with the gossip too well

"They went fishing with the wolves together one night," Ellie said. She wiggled her eyebrow, "If you know what I mean."
She burst into giggles.

Matt laughed too. "You make it sound so deliciously sordid too. " He shook his head, clearly not bothered in the least. "Yeah, earlier in the week she and I got chatting and I dunno, we decided going fishing was a great idea. Turned out someone around here earned us some favors so we got to go meet the werewolf boss lady and she let us use her uh.. packs? private grounds. It was cool, we had a sleep, went night fishing, talked to wolf people, I got to sit under a lake for a bit and fail to grab fish. Good times." He laughed. "Still haven't found out who earned us favors though. Apparently a couple of the crew helped out with something? I dunno."

Shane laughed and shook his head at Ellie's statement and her wiggling her eyebrows.

"Sounds like fun, if you ever go back you should invite me," Ellie said, still giggling a bit.

"oh Ellie, you can come fish with werewolves anytime." Matt grinned and wriggled his eyebrows back at her in the same fashion she had. "But only if Shane promises not to get jealous."

Ellie wiggled her eyebrow again. "Shane could come too."

Matt snickered. "More the merrier. "

Shane was laughing and shook his head at their play. "Yeah, sounds fun."

Matt snickered. "Man I love you guys. " He put an arm around Shane's shoulders. "SO Shane, wanna go shopping for fancy schmancy outfits?"

Shane chuckled and shrugged "sure, why not?" He said and stood them looked to Ellie again "Come on Ellie, get some regular clothes on and come with us, tell us what you like."

"Okay, two minutes!" Ellie raced off to change and would come back before too long wearing her normal clothes again.

"I hope you hung that dress up, so it doesn't wrinkle" Shane teased at her quickness. He was ready to go down to the ramp though, so started that way.

Ellie looked a bit annoyed at Shane, but she shrugged and headed down the ramp.

"We totally gotta rope Esk into this at some point" Matt laughed. "He needs to be made pretty, well.. prettier... " He snickered. "But how do you convince him? Think Ellie batting her eyelids at him might work?" He followed after them.

Shane shrugged and looked to Ellie "I don't know if Ellie's cuteness works on Esk. He doesn't seem affected by things like that. Definitely not as much as we would be."
