[Hi dad]

[cherryblooded]

[Hello, actual daughter! Well, still adopted, since lobsters and shrimps do not porpoises make, but adopted from a young age so it doesn't really make a difference. He's currently brushing her hair for her. It's a Moment.]

Your hair is so lovely, angel. Do you ever think of doing anything else with it?

[aquaticrush]

[Retasu fidgets in her chair.] Do you think I should? I know the style I keep it in is a little strange and the cut doesn't allow for a lot of variation.

[cherryblooded]

I think you should do whatever you like with your own hair, my dear. You'd look stunning even if you shaved your head bald.

[...actual opinion.]

[aquaticrush]

I would look weird, Dad! Everyone would laugh at me.

[cherryblooded]

Laugh at you? They wouldn't dare.

[Because he would murder them, probably.]

[aquaticrush]

Are you sure? Well, maybe... but I still wouldn't shave my head. What brought this up?

[cherryblooded]

Just an idle thought. If we ever go to a fancy party it might be nice to put your hair up differently.

[aquaticrush]

Maybe you're right. [She shifts in her seat and smiles gently.] I don't think I'd do anything drastic, but it would be nice to go somewhere like that. Are you asking because you have something in mind?

[cherryblooded]

It might be nice in a bun... We can try a number of things and see what you like.

[aquaticrush]

I'm a little afraid that might be uncomfortable with my antennae, though I guess you would know better anyway.

[cherryblooded]

Had long hair before, I'm sure I can think of something to do with it.

[aquaticrush]

You're always so nice to me. I know my hairstyle is a little plain and I've had it this way too long, but I never really thought of what else to do with it.

[cherryblooded]

I'm supposed to be nice to my daughter, you don't have to thank me for that.

[How silly.]

[aquaticrush]

But I don't think anybody else has as nice of parents as we do.

[cherryblooded]

Only doing my best.

[aquaticrush]

Is somebody really having a fancy party soon?

[cherryblooded]

Believe I've heard something from Tatsumiya about one in the future.

[aquaticrush]

That sounds nice! I'll try and look better for it if we do go to one. What's the occasion, do you know?

[cherryblooded]

The princess' birthday is coming up. We're throwing her a surprise party, if anything can ever be a surprise when it comes to Princess Uomi.

[She seems to just know everything somehow.]

[aquaticrush]

That sounds like a good idea. [Antenna wiggle.] If there's anything I should do aside from changing my hairstyle, maybe I can help.

[cherryblooded]

We could always go dress shopping, if you like.

[aquaticrush]

Of course! I mean, if it isn't too much trouble.

[cherryblooded]

You're never trouble for me, angel. Would love to go shopping with you.
