[ Cashmere's coming to the network from Connor's couch, though Connor is not in the video and she does her best to not swing the camera around and reveal too much of her background. this is absolutely, totally not a shitpost designed to make Connor laugh. nope. (yes it is)]

I hope everyone is done being a bummer because I need everyone to get it together for an important message.

[ she takes a breath, as though this might actually be an important topic that she needs to discuss with everyone. ]

Should I cut my hair? [ it's hanging loose down her back, and she flips it forward over her shoulders. ] It's gorgeous, I know, but I look just as good with short hair.

[ she smiles. there's a spark in her eye that says she hopes you think her question is stupid and want to fight her on it. ]

Also, I'm looking for a housemate or two. Please submit a 500-word essay or 3 minute video describing why I should pick you.

[Natasha's not looking for housemates and not n the mood to write an essay or self-promote. But she does recognize Cashmere thanks to Connor and his flattering appraisal of her, and it's not like she has anything better to do.

Call her curious.]

Just how short were you thinking. There's a pretty big difference between a short bob and a pixie cut.

[Her lips twitch slightly, but her tone is deadpan.]

With your features, I wouldn't suggest a pageboy. It'd be a waste of your jawline.

[ Cashmere grins back at Natasha. Connor had nice things to say about her, too. ]

I've never really had short hair. So maybe I'd just take a baby step. [ she loosely pulls back her hair to give the illusion of a long bob. ] If I were to cut it all off, people would just think I'd lost my mind.

I don't know about that. Just hair. It grows back.

[But Natasha has changed her hair regularly. It was one of the quickest, easiest things you could do to change your look. That was a benefit in her line of work.]

But that would be a good length on you. You can keep it long enough to pull back out of your face that way.

Hmmm. I guess I'll sleep on it. Don't want to do anything rash. [ really, it might be kind of cute. Cashmere lets her hair drop down again. ]

It used to not always be my decision. And now I'm used to the long hair.

[outstandingbalance]

It'll still be there tomorrow if you decide it is what you want. No need to rush.

[Natasha takes note of her comment about it not being her decision, but she doesn't pursue it directly.]

Do you have someone to cut it for you? Might be easier with a second part of hands.

No one respond to the housemate part. It's not worth it.

[64th]

What's that supposed to mean??

[hornrims]

It means you're high maintenance.

[64th]

[ well she can't really deny that can she? Cashmere huffs and takes a moment to come up with a retort. ]

I'm looking for a housemate not a personal assistant

[hornrims]

Just watch. If someone steps in they'll be the one stuck with the cleaning.

you sure that ain't just a "hair"-brained scheme?

[64th]

ha ha

Do you mean my styling choices or asking someone to be my housemate?

text

[skelebro]

yes.

[Both.]

why the housemate interest anyway?
you havin' roomie trouble?

[64th]

In that case, maybe.

they've all gone home or wherever it is that people go when they leave here. It's just me alone in a 5 bedroom house. I figured it would be better to have someone around. for safety.

[ also she's lonely, shhh ]

[skelebro]

not a bad plan.
seems a lot of people've taken their leave.

[House number one is pretty...pretty empty now, huh?



Yeah. It sure is.]

[benumbing]

Bald would be beautiful on you, but I don't recommend going that far.

Tire of living alone?

Video

[64th]

Bald?? [ she looks bewildered. it hadn't crossed her mind. ]

Yeah the house is quiet lately now that the others have gone home.

Video

[benumbing]

Of course people have that annoying habit of wanting to rub someone's head when it's bald. Kiss it, even.

How many roommates did you have?

Video

[64th]

Two - but one for a long time. I knew I'd miss her if something happened but it's weirder to be alone than I thought it was. [ she smirks. ] You know, no one to rub or kiss my head.

[crisised]

What about a bulleted list? Can I submit one of those?

[64th]

Absolutely.

[ she was mostly joking about the essay requirements but now she's curious. ]

No. Long hair looks better on everyone. And you can do more with it.

[He may not look like it, but considering who his mother is, Kylo Ren could probably sweep someone's hair into some complicated updo that has eight braids involved in it.]

Video

[64th]

[ it's a fairly logical answer, even if she's surprised that it's coming from him. ]

You make a good point. If I cut it short, all I'll be able to do is put it in a ponytail.

[darthvaderfanboy]

[He certainly doesn't look the type to care about hair, especially when his own was currently in the style of 'way past due for a cut', and the fact he wore the helmet almost constantly. But once upon a time, there had been a little boy named Ben, who liked to sit quietly, and watch his mother turn her hair into intricate creations.]

Then you'll lose out on things like the five-strand braid.

[64th]

That's a style I haven't tried. I usually went with curls at home. And a lot of big, complicated ponytails. [ she kind of misses having people do her hair. It was nice to get all dolled up sometimes. it's soothing, in it's own way. ]

How do you know so much about hair?
