lala had a knack of encountering strange people - her best friend, keith, was the first of many who bequeathed the fascination of those out of the ordinary. though, she shouldn’t say this as she was an avid doll collector of antiquated mannequins and other seedy shop collected knickknacks. if one were to enter her room, they’d think they would have entered a witch’s cove and feel like a curse was creeping down their backs. 

but that wasn’t what she intended at all when decorating her space. lala was just drawn to the otherworldly at times and at the sight of this strange occult store, her feet just took her there. Oculi Omnium. her father and mother would be baffled and dismayed with her desire to enter the bizarre store, but she’d never tell them. and so, she entered, eyeing the merchandise but her attention was captivated by a woman shorter than her but with a flamboyant style, so to say. 

“sometimes i forget that people aren’t used to seeing dead bodies; it’s like seeing roadkill on the side. just call the cops and move along.”

“I will admit that you are pretty, Riley.” Beat.
