“I don’t know.” Not that. She ran her fingers through her hair and wrinkled her nose. It’d been pissing her off so much lately. And it got more annoying by the day. It was anyones guess whether she was just fed up with it or if the length was getting progressively worse as it grew. “…cut this.”

He gave a quiet chuckle. "It's certainly at an annoying length. Once it's long enough to tie back it won't be such a problem, but it you need to cut it then by all means do so."

Ky let out a little sigh and nodded. “… do you think Anneke likes it long?”

“I’m her daughter,” Ky countered. She patted her hair, thinking about her childhood. “My friend’s mama when I was little liked playing with my hair and braiding it and such. Said she’d always wanted a little girl but then only had sons and liked when I let her dote on me…” She shrugged, realizing her gaze had drifted to the desk, and glanced up. “If she likes it too, I’ll keep it… er.. get it back.”

"I don't see how it's any of Anneke's business what you do with your hair," Gaius said with a shrug. "She and Tomhas are your parents, but that doesn't mean they get a say in how you present yourself--not really."

“Oh…” Ky considered it for a moment. “… are you sure?”

"I didn't plan on it." He settled into his chair. "You do want to cut it, then?"

“I don’t know.” She tucked her hair behind her ears. “I haven’t decided.” She also wasn’t convinced they didn’t care.

"Plenty of time for that." Gaius shrugged. "Have you talked to Tomhas about taking you home?"
