Anachlirium realises she's dragging Theed along and slows down to his pace. She stretches up onto her toes, not an easy feat in platform heebls, and whispers into his ear. "Thanks for coming here. I know you weren't keen on it... By the way, you look really good." She attempts to push herself even higher up to kiss him, but one big black chunk of plastic and leather slips from under her and she collapses into a heap on the floor, the large skirt of her dress puffing up from the sudden fall, swallowing her up to her shoulders.
She quickly flattens down the dress over her backside, trying to cover the fact that she was wearing lime green and barbie-doll pink striped underwear, even though she was very sure this sight had already been glimpsed by a number of people around the room.
"Embarrassing, kupo!" she hears from over where the entrance is.
With her attention being brought to the entrance of the room, she sees that the door had been brought down, and a look of confusion comes accross her face. How could she not have noticed that before? She sees Cid walking through the entrance and wonders where Fishie and Lily could be. She was sure that they would come.
Bringing herself back into the present time, she realises that she is still crumpled on the floor. She delicately straightens her feet before clasping her hand firmly around Theed's wrist and yanking herself up from the ground, almost pulling him down in the process.
Just as she pulls herself up, she sees Violet and Silver walking past a couple of metres away. "Hey, you two!" she yells out, trying to grap their attention. "What happened to that door?"
