Okay, quick author's note. This first thing that happens, with the hairbrush, happened to me and Miss-Misto the other day. She was trying to curl her very, very, VERY long hair with one of those cylinder brushes and it got stuck. She has a lot of hair, and I had to cut the brush out. Her hair looks okay now. Sort of. She also acts the same way about mascara. When we do CATS makeup, she has to do her own mascara. Alrighty, read on.
Mysteria was rolling on the ground laughing as she watched her two "sisters". Technically, adopted sister and half sister. Victoria was pulling as hard as she could on a hairbrush, which was stuck in Etcetera's tangled headfur. Etcetera was screaming at the top of her lungs. Mysteria struggled to her feet and put one paw on Victoria's shoulder.
"Vikki, let me handle it."
Victoria let go of the brush. Etcetera grasped her head protectively.
"No one else touches my head."
Mysteria giggled and grabbed a pair of scissors.
"Cettie, let me try."
Etcetera closed her eyes and nodded. Mysteria held up the fur covered brush and started snipping. She had to cut the rest of Etcetera's headfur to make it look even.
"Okay, Cettie. You can look."
Etcetera opened her eyes and gasped. Her headfur was now choppy and stylish, some falling in her eyes.
"I love it!" she squealed.
She jumped up and grabbed one of Mysteria's arms. Victoria grabbed the other. Mysteria realized what they were thinking.
"Damn," she muttered.
Her sisters giggled and sat her in the chair by the mirror. Victoria grabbed a small box that was covered in sparkles. Etcetera grabbed a hairbrush, texture wax, and claw polish in a shade of dark scarlet. Mysteria glared at them.
"I hate you," she hissed.
Etcetera rolled her eyes and sprayed the texture wax all over Mysteria's mostly cream fur. It smelled sickly sweet. Mysteria wrinkled her black nose.
"Eww."
Etcetera pulled the brush through Mysteria's incredibly tangled fur. She grimaced.
"If you washed your fur more, maybe it wouldn't be so tangled."
Mysteria stuck her tongue out at her half sister, who rolled her eyes. She held out one paw.
"Vikki, hand me the scissors."
Mysteria gasped.
"No! That is where I draw the line!"
Victoria handed Etcetera the scissors and held Mysteria down while Etcetera snipped at the fur. Mysteria attempted to scream bloody murder, but was stopped by a white paw. She let out a muffled hiss. Etcetera nodded and Victoria let Mysteria up. She turned abruptly to look in the mirror. Etcetera stopped her.
"Not until we do makeup!" she sang.
Mysteria moaned as Victoria opened the sparkly case, revealing various shades of eye shadow, lipstick, lip gloss, and other things. Etcetera opened the dark scarlet claw polish. It smelled awful. As Cettie started painting Mysteria's claws, Victoria rummaged through the case until she decided on a bright violet shadow and some pink lipstick flecked with gold. She sternly pointed at Mysteria.
"Now, this has real flecks of gold. Don't waste it kissing any Tom except my brother."
Mysteria rolled her eyes as Victoria started applying the eye shadow. Etcetera blew on Mysteria's claws while Victoria lined her eyes with black liquid liner. Mysteria tensed when she saw Victoria pull out the mascara. She shook her head.
"Too close to my eyes. Not happening."
Victoria sighed, studying Mysteria's dark lashes.
"Fine. Your lashes are long enough."
The cream Queen smiled triumphantly, as Victoria applied the lipstick.
"All done!" Etcetera crowed.
Mysteria spun around to look in the mirror. She gasped. Her usually dull green-grey eyes looked dark and sultry with the heavy liner and the vibrant eye shadow. The lipstick complimented her cream fur nicely and her fur! It was layered and textured. Etcetera had done a fabulous job cutting it. She hugged her sisters and helped them pick out their makeup.
They decided on a sapphire blue shadow and scarlet lipstick for Etcetera, followed by black claw polish. Victoria decided on magenta shadow and a pink lipstick with blue undertones, with hot pink claw polish. After they had finished, they all exchanged a look. Mysteria reached under her bed and pulled out a beautiful black box.
Inside, laid three collars. Their best collars. One was a stunning shade of red, studded with small blue and white crystals in the shape of hearts. The second was dark black with silver star-shaped studs and a dark red heart-shaped crystal hanging from the front. The third was emerald green with silver studs and a green crystal teardrop hanging from a small silver loop.
Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I just found out yesterday that my mom died. I might be slow with the updates for a while.
