Library, Wednesday, All Day

Sholeh had been having the same argument with her sisters since the summer began: wear cooler clothing. Admittedly, her stays and petticoats and bustle cages weren't exactly comfortable in the heat, but they were familiar. Understandable. Distracting. When people looked at her, they were usually looking at her clothing rather than her. She was invisible, in her own way. Only her clothes stood out.

That suited Sholeh just fine.

Apparently, that wasn't good enough for her sisters who were agitating for clothing that breathed a little more. Also, apparently, they'd somehow gotten the library on their side at some point. Because no matter what Sholeh did or how many magazines she put away, the circulation desk was always covered (sometimes several issues deep) in fashion magazines featuring summer clothing.

*Oooh, that outfit looks comfortable!*

=Look! You can actually move around in that one!=

*I bet lots of people would think you looked nice in this ensemble.*

=You know what's fun? Not dying of heatstroke!=

...Sholeh was going to continue to ignore her sisters and put magazines away. Yes, that sounded like a great idea.
