*She grinned at Lisette's reaction and laughed herself, sure that she'd never seen anything as cute as Lisette surprised.*
"It's very loud- the storm must be close."

"Like as not to eat the window-panes."
*It was a phrase her mother used, and over the years she'd adopted it.
She stood up, careful not to track mud any more than was necessary*
"I should get out of this, before I get something else ruined."

*Manon nodded and went to her bedroom, to emerge moments later with one of her own nightgowns.*
"Is this alright? I don't expect that either of us are going out again, so there's no point in getting real clothes."

"Oh, that should be fine. You're right--we're not going anywhere for a while."

*She nodded in agreement.*
"You can change in my room, or the bathroom," *she gestured to the two doors as she spoke.*

"Thank you again."
*Taking the gown and making sure not to get mud on it, she headed toward the bathroom and disappeared inside. She fumbled a bit with her sopping wet dress, the seams having tightened a bit thanks to being soaked.*

*Manon waited in the living room for what seemed like an awfully long time.*
"Are you alright?" *she called finally.*

"I can't...get these buttons..."
*She replied, still trying to attempt the last three. It would take an act of contortion that she didn't have the ability for the get them, though*

*D'you need some help?"

*She opened the door a crack, giving Manon an embarrassed look*
"Yes. It's gone all strange because of the rain."

*Manon nodded and approached the bathroom.*
"It's alright, I've got it."
*After a moment's struggle, she undid the troublesome buttons, and began to make a hasty retreat.*

*She hadn't realized how tight the dress had become until Manon had gotten the buttons taken care of. Lisette heaved a sigh of relief*
"Good grief, that was terrible. Thank you again!"
*Once the door was closed, she had no further trouble in getting out of her wet clothes and into the dry gown. Her hair had dried somewhat by then, and she combed it out as best she could with her fingers before stepping back out of the bathroom*
"I feel better already."

"Nothing like dry, warm clothes to improve a situation." *she said with a grin.*

"Absolutely! And it also helps to have a friend near."

*She smiled.*
"I'm glad to hear that," *she said, her cheeks coloring slightly.*
