It's hard enough finding just the right dress, much less on a girl that at least looks similar to your character. Now, try that, with the added complication of finding one with a septum piercing and a collar! It's impossible! Impossible I tell you!! So, the external image will change from time to time, as Courtney changes outfits, but she will also almost always have the septum ring in, and the collar on, unless otherwise noted in the specific post, or in here.</div></div></div></div></div><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 11pt;">Steffy knows this, (and even so, I still try to use it to my advantage), but I'm really good at pouting. There's a nuance to it, and every pout is different. Most of mine are playful, or put on to protest in way that the protest is seen, but also seen to not be an overly big deal. I had intended to put Steffy on the spot, and get her talking about her girlfriend, (me), in front of of this new girl. It could have been hilarious, and baffling to the girl, and might have been fun to see how long we could have kept it up but ...<br/><br/>*pout* ... Jaclyn ruined the fun before it began.<br/><br/>This pout wasn't an overly dramatic, or overt pout, but rather very fleeting. A brief opening of my mouth, snapped shut into a disappointed half pout, and then ... well that was it. I think. Maybe. Maybe not.<br/><br/>"Awww. Jaclyn!!" *pout*<br/><br/>Maybe I should have winked at her, not Mechelle. Noted for next time.<br/><br/>*giggle* "Fiiiine ..." I say, putting on an over-exasperated, clearly exaggerated tone, "...yes, I'm Courtney, also the owner of several nicknames, though most not suitable for polite company."<br/><br/>I'm still way lost on everything. Hire her? I give Steffy a confused look.<br/><br/>"New recruit?" I ask, also suddenly wondering why she took this girl's hand. Maybe Mechelle was right, and she does need to be cutoff.<br/><br/>Certain things can't be controlled, emotions easily topping that list. I've worked hard on controlling them, given my history and what happened on our last case. And, despite knowing that it's Steffy, and Steffy is Steffy and beyond loyal and trustworthy, there was a sudden possessiveness and jealousy trying to bubble up. I recognized it immediately as being irrational, and kept my composure, but the feelings were there. Was that the vibe I sensed, when I walked in? Or was it between Jaclyn and this girl? All three? All irrational fears, but .. not knowing what happened prior to my arrival was killing me.<br/><br/>And what's this about a remote? I'm so lost. Maybe she's got one of those high-tech sex toys that others can control? One thing's for sure, she's not shy. One other thing that's for sure, I need a drink.<br/><br/>"Hey Mechelle, when you get a sec, could you get me a </span><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Slutty Temple</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/6/67/Slutty_Temple.jpg) </div></div><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 11pt;"> please?"</span>
