Mikey pulled on his tie uncomfortably, trying to get furs caught in its madness free without pulling any. He tugged the sleeves of his suit jacket down farther, fiddling with the cuff pins. He ran his claws through the unruly tuff of fur that sat between his ears, trying to make it seem like he hadn't just worked the late shift and slept fitfully until just recently.
Lin angrily fluffed out her petticoat, then running her hand through her hair for the umpteenth time. Lin cursed the citizens of Neovia, who the hell makes the halloween ball /mandatory/? Thankfully she didn't spend too much time picking out a dress, as the town tailors seemed to find immense joy in fitting Lin. Though she ended up having to whack Mikey when she came home with a galaxy themed skirt, which he still couldn't get over the irony of.
Mikey greeted Lin as she came out of their small bathroom with a bundle of autumn wild flowers. She smirked and took the bundle carefully, "What? Mr Wildman went out and picked me some flowers?"
Mikey shrugged, "Figured this is our first proper, ya know, /fancy,/ date."
Lin looked Mikey over with his un-ironed dress shirt and lack of footwear, "Uh huh-".
She laughs a little to herself, "Well I guess Mr Wildman can't be Mr Fancyman with out a corsage can he?" She plucks a particular autumn crocus out of the bouquet and sticks it in his breast pocket.
Mikey chuckles and offers her his elbow, "May I lead you to the ball, darling?"
Lin takes his arm and playfully whacks him on his shoulder as he guides her out and down the treehouse.
