006 [Action]
[Karla is back from the mission, and she is glad for it. The desert heat had gotten to her, and it was more than she could bear. As far as she's concerned, the mission was hollow to her. She didn't get any stronger from it, and she didn't pay much attention to what was going on with the Iron Eye or the Malnosso.]
[Now that she's generally recovered, she pays a visit to the clothing shop to explore the various ladies' clothing. Quite interesting, all the different fashions here in Luceti. She decides to try on a few dresses and see how comfortable they are and how well she can move in them. Among some of the dresses she tries are this, this, and this. Catch her in the clothing shop as she emerges from the dressing room and checking herself out in the mirror. She keeps her sword sheath at her waist as usual, and while standing in front of the mirror, she'll bring the sheath in front of her and draw the sword about halfway. Then she'll draw the sword completely and assume her various poses, just to see how it feels in these dresses, and how she looks in the mirror.]

[Effie sits on a nearby bench and begins going through some other garments she has picked out for Karla in the meantime. Scarves. Belts.]
[action]
Um...
[That verbal cue makes it painfully obvious that she has no clue. She mulls over it for a moment. She drems of being with her brother, but at this point, she really doesn't see it actually happening.]
[action]
[action]
But...I just...
[She only wants to be with her brother. She only wants to command his attention. That was the sole reason she took up the sword in the first place. Sure, she's commanded a lot of other attention as well, but she's mostly discarded it.]
[Don't mind her as she stands there, lost in her daydreams.]
[action]
[And now Effie realizes how she can pay Karla back for the bodyguarding.]
And I shall help you craft one!
[action]
...A Five-Year Plan? How does that work?
[action]
[action]
[That sounds easy enough.
Never mind that she only has one goal.][action]
[NO ONE DOESN'T LOVE LISTS. EVERYONE LOVES LISTS. EVERYONE.]
[action]
[They may be useful, but Karla doesn't see any reason to get enthusiastic over them.]
So I just need a pen and some paper...
[She begins looking around.]
[action]
I'm always prepared to make five-year plans!
[action]
[Karla takes the quill and post-its and writes down her "list." When she gives it back, there's but a single goal written: "Find my brother."]
Here it is.
[action]
[action]
[She averts her gaze now. She could probably start crying in another moment.]
[action]
[action]
[action]
[action]
[At this rate, she may never find him. And that makes her SIGH.]
[action]
[action]
[Her mind trails off, initially occupied with thoughts of being with her brother as a child. Then her parents slowly come to mind, and how much she misses them. Brother...parents...family. Those things are important to her.]
A...family?
[action]
[action]
[And then the next question sinks in, and she blinks at the options. Purchase or thievery? People actually do that?]
Um...I would prefer marriage and natural birth...
[Oh Saint Elimine, what is she getting herself into...?]
[action]
[action]
[She draws the line on the notepad and writes the word "Marriage."]
Then what?
