elaine leblanke, ginny weasley

Before the wedding....
Ginny is all ready for Elaine to come and spend the night at her suite.

She'd gone to Manny and made a deal with him to fix some things of his with magic in return for a few little items they might need by the time Elaine gets married in the morning.

She's also gotten all sorts of snacks and drinks from the restaurant downstairs.

Now all she needs is for Elaine to arrive!

	Elaine arrives, clutching her wedding things in her hands and looking pale and very, very nervous. She doesn't have any hands left to knock, she realizes belatedly. "Oh, dear," she says, shifting some of her things, knocking, then taking her things up again before they fall on the floor. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It only takes a moment for the door to open, and Ginny is there, to help carry her things inside. "Hi! Come on in! Let's get your dress hung up! Can I see it?" She's a little excited. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Of course... I have been anxious to show it to someone." She puts her dress (hangers are such an interesting invention, she wonders why they hadn't invented them back in her time, so simple) on the back of the door. It's a simple white linen gown with blue embroidery on the hem, neckline and sleeves. It looks...fairly rectangular, but there are laces at the sides and neckline to shape it to her body.

"I found it in the Boutique--I knew that they had clothing from my time but I was not expecting something so perfect for me."

	"Oh, Elaine! It's brilliant, and will look gorgeous on you!" She goes to her closet and brings out a dress of her own. She'd tried to keep in mind the more modest styles of Elaine's time, and tried to keep it simple, so as not to distract from Elaine's spotlight. "This is the one I picked out to wear, myself. I think the blues will look nice together." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's very beautiful," she says. "I like the color very much." She takes a deep breath. "I can't believe the wedding is tomorrow." She's truly nervous about everything at the moment. "I hardly know what to do with myself." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well, first come in and sit down, and we'll have some tea." Ginny has the teapot set out, and goes and taps it with her wand. Steam rises from the spout immediately, and she smiles with satisfaction. "Unless you'd like something else; I got a whole bunch of different things from downstairs to keep us fed and watered, so to speak." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Tea sounds very nice indeed." And much better than whatever alcoholic beverage she would normally drink. She really isn't a heavy drinker. She watches Ginny as she works her magic. It won't ever cease to be fascinating. "No, the tea will be fine, I am not sure at the moment how well I would be able to eat." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ginny sets about getting milk and sugar out while the tea steeps, and then pouring out two cups. "Do you have everything ready that you need for the morning?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Elaine nods. "It doesn't take much. Sparhawk is moving into my room, so I didn't really have to bring much outside of my dress and underthings."

Well, chemise and stockings, anyway. Women in Elaine's time did not wear very much in the way of undergarments. "I was advised that I should keep my flowers somewhere cold, however." She brought out her crown of pale pink roses and her small, simple bouquet made of the field flowers she'd loved when she lived back home. "I should put them in the refrigerator, I suppose."

	"I can put a charm on the them to keep them fresh." She gets out her wand. "It won't keep them forever, but they should last just fine until tomorrow night, at least. And I can do your nails for you, and help with your hair, if you'd like." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh, thank you. I'd appreciate that." She tilts her head, then looks at her nails. "What would you do with my nails?" They're short and practical at the moment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You've never had a manicure, before? It's just filing the edges, and maybe putting some polish on." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Elaine shakes her head. "The only reason I kept my nails smooth at home was so I would not catch the fabric I was sewing on and ruin it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
