Looking at the bunches of frilly, fancy, and well-designed dresses lined up on the racks in front of her, Juliette wondered, should she be concerned?

"Do you like them?" A voiced hummed next to her.

"Erm..." Juliette squinted her eyes in confusion and visibly wilted inside of her tiny night gown. "I mean... Yes, I suppose? They're really pretty, if that's what you're asking." She mumbled, scratching her head momentarily.

"I'm glad. Now pick two, you and your sister are going to need them."

Juliette cracked her head to the right and tilted it up, side-eyeing the man. "What do you mean by that?" She pursed her lips.

Oh good grief, were these going to be her and her sister's funeral dresses? Were these going to be the dresses Anastacius would kill her and her beautiful twin sister in? Is that why all of them were nearly white in color?

Even though she had somehow managed to keep the match from lighting the unpredictable fire in Anastacius at bay, she didn't want to die! She was still too young! Only five years old!

Perhaps though, she thought with a bitter expression on her face, she could only last so long. Five years without a single drowning incident or near death experience was actually pretty decent for a child of one of the terrible two Obelia brothers.

Props to WMMAP Jennette for lasting more than a decade with both.

Juliette wearily turned back to the dresses. One of them had caught her eye. It was a light green one, decorated with darker green ruffles, at the bottom as well as a few emeralds here and there. it had a really big bow on the skirt, as well.

When the girl walked forward to pull it from the rack, she noticed that it also had an emerald broach on it. Fancy.

Overall, It was really pretty.

Anastacius smiled at her. It was a very eerie smile, but one no less. For obvious reasons, Juliette did not trust it.

For good reason as well, because the next thing she knew, she was falling.

Shrieking was what had followed. Shrieking and a whole lotta cursing.

Sigh. She should've known.

"ANASTACIUS!!!" Juliette furiously shouted, halfway between where she was spawned in the air and the ground. "WHEN I CATCH YOU-"
