OOM: Texas with Ace

[theresnodoor]

Kate has been flying high ever since they left the rest of the group behind. Rachel's been riding her high, laughing in the wake of Kate's joy, enjoying herself and letting it be known. She'd morphed not long after separating with the others and raced Kate's horse across the desert, the body of the stallion she'd morphed bursting with energy, the desire to run. Even the few days of travel, filled with laughter, trading stories and details about the job, has been pure fun.

She'll need to go back to Milliways eventually, and preferably before she fades or snaps back or whatever is supposed to happen to her. But until then, she's enjoying herself.

Galveston is nice enough, Rachel supposes, for yet another place without running water. Kate found them a nice set of rooms to stay in, though they'll be trying to find Rachel a door soon. They've even done some shopping and, as such, while Kate is off exploring the town herself, Rachel is walking the main street in a new skirt, patterned and bright in yellow, another stark white blouse, ruffled at the open collar with the sleeves rolled up again. She's been paying attention the last few days and she knows she's not pulling off the look of a lady. Maybe a ranch hand, a cowgirl, something like that. But Texas remains hot and Rachel's of the opinion that she makes a pretty cute cowgirl like this, nothing immodest or tasteless about the outfit. She'll be keeping it just like this until someone convinces her to pretend to be a lady.
