Carmen was very pleased with how the dress turned out on Lily. However...she was not pleased with Lily's reaction. Her demeanor had changed on a dime, from all into it to apparently very reserved. Most curiously, she was also redlining. That was something she had only seen Crash and Kathy do. But here? Now? With only [i]her[/i] in the room? Carmen was, understandably, extremely confused. And also concerned. Her intense eyes could see through Lily's suppressed emotions.

[b]"Lily?"[/b]

Her voice ripe with concern, she sat down on the bed opposite Lily. [b]"What's wrong? What happened? Was it something I said?"[/b] She spoke quickly, in a tone full of concern but also a clear desire to eliminate her omnipresent confusion. She immediately got up and walked over to her hair supplies without a word once Lily asked for a hair tie, picking out a nice hair tie and walking back, handing it to her. [b]"Need anything else?"[/b] she said very softly. She felt an odd obligation to help Lily in any way possible, fashion quest or not. ...But still mainly the fashion quest. She was still Carmen, after all.
