[ she's honestly grateful for the in with the drama department at her university. all it takes is the flutter of her lashes and the mousy keeper of the costumes has allowed essie ko to borrow a charming mid 19th century gown, beige with red flowers, black lace lining her decolletage. the rose pins in her shocking ginger hair are a nice touch, especially since essie sees no reason to blend in. her hair and makeup aren't historically accurate but she supposes nice korean-american girls weren't wearing such clothes at this time.
the historical halloween performance and party at the old manor just off campus was far too tempting, especially since she can't turn down a good show and a chance to put on a costume, especially most of her dancewear is spandex and holo and she never gets a chance to gussie up like this.
somehow she's managed to coax her boyfriend to come with her, the two of them making a ( frankly ) smokin' pair even if essie is keen to remain on the outside of the crowd, chatting occasionally between the nosh and the drinks. she's feeling bold again, sliding lace gloved hand into his and leaning in awfully close to brush her lips against his ear. ]
