2022-12-16 19:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostGirls could be a unique mystery. When I had first met Sabrina she’d been a girl that had avoided going out in public as much as possible.

Lorelei had been asked to wait in the trainer lounge, something which hopefully wasn’t taken as a slight. Then again, it was a nicer space than sticking her in my office and asking her to wait. I paused in the entrance to observe her.

Thanks go to Deearluna from Fiverr for these dresses for Sabrina! I think they look great! I am thinking of having them do Trixie soon but that will depend on if there is a demand for Sabrina in more dresses first and foremost!

Thanks to Dearluna from Fiverr we have some interesting choices to make!
In an upcoming event that I have written up, Sabrina will be dressing up! For that event, we need to pick a dress that suits her best!
I will be reposting this as an image selection but the options are!
This month's chapter for the 'Fan's choice was Red Riot Chapter 5, I am finalising the details and editing it to release this weekend! I think it's a solid development for the cast with more to come, but the big events of Matsu during his academy days will be revealed.
