No, I'm not the Baba Yaga, despite my awful skin. I'm trying to get better with that, by the way.

[endlessflask]

wow i never said anything about your skin
did someone say I said something

[revenante]

Eliot?

Well, that's... strange. This wasn't meant for you? I mean I wasn't texting you, but somehow you've got this message?

And no one's claiming you're gossiping about me. You can relax. Unless you were gossiping about me. Then you're in trouble.

[ She's kidding. Or is she...? ]

[endlessflask]

im sorry someone's trashing your skin and calling you the baba yaga
you know the loft we all sort of live in used to be rented out by the baba yaga
back in manhattan

[revenante]

It's fine, they didn't mean anything cruel by it. Although they have a point about it, my skin's seen better days.

[ Seven years with no sun is hell on a woman's skin. ]

You're kidding. You mean she's real in your world? I mean I know about gods from Quentin but she's real too?

[endlessflask]

she sure is
you know though
if you're feeling like you have baba yaga skin I can help
we can do a proper girls night
I have all these face masks and a jade roller and no one to share them with

[revenante]

What's she like? Out of curiosity?

I can't say I've ever had a "girls night". Or at least not really one since I was in high school. Saying that, it was probably with my mom. This sounds a little more... fun?

[ Also: ]

What's a jade roller?

[endlessflask]

its
basically what it sounds like
a piece of jade that you roll over your face to help it look good and keep you feeling relaxed

[revenante]

Okay.

At the risk of sounding dense, how does that work exactly? I mean it kind of sounds like something my mom might use, to be honest.

[endlessflask]

well
massage helps stimulate your skin and all those tiny little blood vessels so it helps stimulate your circulation and helps your skin detox itself
and you know
it can help soothe your skin if you're feeling inflamed or puffy
if you cool the roller before you use it its especially heavenly
im gonna be honest and say the jade part isn't really necessary and you get them in all kinds of stones
but it's a massage for your face
it's great

[revenante]

A Magician and a skincare expert. Is there anything else talent-wise I haven't learned about you yet?

That sounds pretty nice, though. Normal. I guess we could all do with a little more normal, sometimes.

[endlessflask]

this may shock you
but some people including myself might call me vain
skincare is very important to me
and
it just makes you feel better in a weird way
we'll have fun, promise

[revenante]

[ Okay, that got a little laugh out of her. ]

Well, it's working. You do have quite commendable skin.

I think I can understand that, though. It making you feel better. Not weird, just a form of both mentally and physically caring for oneself, I guess.

I'll hold you to that.
