Red stilettos clicked over the sidewalk, the girl perched in them stretching her bangle adorned arms skyward with a grin. Remains of the late sun drifted between the city buildings, a faint breeze swirling through the streets. Hips swaying to an Ellie Goulding playlist as she walked, it might be hard to believe the twenty year-old had suffered a near sleepless night the eve before. She'd been up far too late on a patrol, enjoying the thrill and adrenaline of that other self of hers.
The beige knit poncho consumed her form, blocking any n** in the air from her otherwise rather layer-less self as she meandered down the street. Long dark hair was swept up in a messy half-bun, leaving the tresses to fall as they would in a haphazard sense. Danika had dressed for comfort that day. Late-night run aside, she still had some sense of responsibility. Flo hadn't scheduled her for the day, and her classes had come and gone for the day, leaving Danika plenty of time for an ultra valuable task: restocking her fabric, sewing, and otherwise fashion supplies.
She was sorely lacking. While her job at the store and her classes had continued on per norm, she'd begun to fill any time not taken over by assignments and work with activities as Themiscyra. Not a bad thing! Oh no. Just the opposite. Danika felt like she was waltzing on cloud nine, pleased as could be. Her gaze flickered with a grin to the silver slender ring on her hand. The red stone glistened in the sunlight in her eyes. It mystified her how to anyone else, it'd look like just a plain, boring old ring. Cheap trick!
Smothering the annoyed urge to puff up her cheeks like a child, the red-eyed woman turned her slit and cut-out black legging'ed legs into one of the more popular craft stores of the area. Swaths of fabric lit up her eyes, making her pause a fraction of a second just inside the door before bolting for the... well, bolts hung and displayed across the back walls.
She had to remember her budget. Remember the budget... oh but this material... The college student with a puny paycheck fawned over the soft fabric that caught her eye by its specs of gold meshed into the cream colored cloth. So many pros and cons to being a fashion student...
