Yes! Ooh fun!

Appearances? You mean we can't just keep being voices?

Oh...

Cheer up, Declan! It'll be fun!

Okay. But I am still nobody.

Shush. Be happy. Are there any limits to what I can look like, Body?

You know, it's ironic that you're called 'Body' when you're nothing but a voice like us.

clever one aren't you

I got it!

Already?

Yup!

I want light brown eyes, almost gold, with flecks of pink! And copper coloured hair with darker skin, please. And tall! Not really tall, but tall for a girl, y'know?

Ah! I look awesome! Look, Declan!

I see. You are very special, Decadence.

have you decided Declan

I think so.

Ooh I can't wait to see!

Dark black hair that has a blue undertone in the right light, and bright, bright blue eyes. Like electric blue. Pale and fair-skinned, please. And average height I suppose.

Thanks, Body!

Thank you.

Naw. You go ahead.

You sure?

I like seeing what you have first.

Okay then... Hm. Lemmie think...

Could I be really good at photography? And speaking. Like, being able to express my thoughts really well?

you are sure about these choices Decadence

...Yes. I am sure.

granted

Yay! Thank you, Body!

of course

...My turn?

Yupyup!

Well, I really like yours, Deca. How about I be really good at writing. Expressing my thoughts on paper instead of speaking them. And music. I want to be really talented with music.

well thought out

...Do I have them now?

yes

Am I supposed to feel this way?

Yep! I felt the same way! And Deca being short for Decadence... I like it.

You do?

Yes! Do you like Dec?

I would not mind.

Deca and Dec! We are awesome!

Sure.

would you like to enter the world now

...The World?

What's the World?

the world is a place to live grow and experience new things

Can we come back if we don't like it?

Deca, what do you think?

...I would like to try new things but I like it up here.

i will give you time to decide

Thank you.
