To say the experience was an odd one for Arc would have been putting things VERY mildly, the whole salon appointment going by in a small blur. The shampoo burned a little at her scalp, and the digging and cleaning care along her hands and her feet (oh gods, her feet!) made her recall all the beatings she had endured in her adolescence...almost in a positive light. The human held her tongue during the painful parts or during Debi's multitude of chidings, opting to simply mutter quiet profanities in Or'Zet so no one would understand her.
Finally, when all was finished, the two were brought before a mirror to take in their appearance. "...the frag...that can't be us..." The human was barely recognizable for the grungy mechanic girl she was, her face cleaned up and makeup applied, masking her scars while applying a light blush to her cheeks. Eyeshadow and liner made her green eyes pop, and a light, subtly red lipstick was applied. The hair was even more dramatic: completely clean and muss-free, a light wave applied to it. The length was not shortened much, remaining just above shoulder-length, a single small braid framing her face while the rest was held back with a headband. Part of her wondered if this kind of drek was what she woulda looked like had her parents not up and died. Giving a polite smile and thanks, she waited for the two to be outside before speaking to the Russian. "Holy mother of drek, do we look corp-type...we walk through our hood like this, we gon get mugged...wha?"
She was barely able to finish her sentence before a couple stopped them on the sidewalk, their excited faces denoting they recognized the pair. A couple flowers and autographs later, the two were left in mild bewilderment of their famed status, regardless whether it was manufactured or not. The lunch date was just as jarring as the salon appointment as well, the clean plateware and cutlery a sharp contrast to the usual soypaste and fast food Arc was used to. The food was out of this world: a fresh garden salad with all the fixings, followed by a chicken fettucine slathered in a rich alfredo sauce. The flavors danced upon the girl's tongue, practically ruining her for the low quality food she was used to.
The rest of the afternoon went in a mild haze, but a quick stop at home and the two were getting ready for the night. Changing into her dress, Arc started to feel a flutter of nervousness. They were revered, celebrated, pampered...and it felt off. So different from what she was used to being--the bottom of the barrel--and a look of worry was on her flatteringly made up face. As she struggled to remember how her dress went on, she practically stumbled before bringing up a point to the elf. "...I'm bringing my stuff in a bag in the car...I got this feeling. This is way out in left field, omae, and I think if I ain't careful, I'ma frag it up and we needin some powpow on the quick. Wiz? I'm hittin' up the boys to see what the plan is in getting there. You still going with the plan that Feathers be your date, babushka?" She winked, mentally pulling up her ARO and firing off at the speed of thought.

<<If yo job was to build up fraggin' hype, I think it worked. Drek, man, this is way weird. Anyhow, you bringing us into this place? We can pick you up wherever, just give us enough time to get there, wiz?>>
@Feathers{Arc}>>
<<Still alive, pops? Don't feel bad, I'm still shaking it off too. Won't ask about that Trina gal, yo biz is yo biz. Need a lift to the Stardust? I can swing by. Holla>>
Rubbing her head, she downed some water with a small gasp to shake off what she could of her hangover. "Drek..aight...ready as I will be.." She stood a little awkwardly in her sleek dress, turning to check over Yelena. "..wiz...that drek fits you like a fraggin' glove..."
