How to be Yanay:

+ Start the day with floral soaps and a lot of scrubbing. Towel dry, dab: no rubbing.

+ Dry hair. Braid into bun. Pull out stray pieces if you're feeling fun.

+ Continue by layering white silks, loose and billowy. This hides a frame that's not-so-pillowy.

+ Add at least two of each: beaded bracelets, hooped earrings, pendant necklaces with shell charms from the beach—continue with feathered ornaments, and folksy wood rings. Determine the most auspicious combination of lucky things.

+ After foundation and concealer, apply an orange-coral blush: match lips with sheer gloss in "Peachy Keen" via brush.

+ Dab three white dots under each eye—draw a triangle on the forehead, way up high.

+ Top it off with a sheer-n'-sparkly maroon veil, with silver stars and suns; and according to weather, drape around shoulders or the buns.

+ All done: go get 'em, girl! The world's an oyster, and you're the pearl.

Red: sexual assault; violence; filth; being made to feel "disposable"; any sexual conduct that's sudden, unprovoked, and unestablished. I don't want to be surprised.

Yellow: getting to know one another, chatting, something happening after extended RP—whether it be mutual consent and discovery, or dubcon. However the story goes. Let's see how we brew.

I want to develop mostly platonic and cordial relationships—I prefer to get to know characters, make friends. It's unlikely I'll be explicit or sexual, but I'm open to the idea that I'll feel differently in the right circumstances. I prefer making that decision in-context, with whomever I share the scene.
