Inside the steamy changing area of the Exonory Temple bath, the air was already thick with heat, scented steam curling around the marble floor like sneaky little ghosts.
"Alright, Dila!" Stella chirped cheerfully, already halfway out of her robes.
"Time to strip~ We're gonna soak like queens tonight!"
Dila's eyes shot wide like saucers.
"N-No—Nope! Wait, wait, wait—!!"
She whirled around, slapped both hands over her face, and flailed like she was fending off invisible bees.
"W-What are you doing?! Put those robes back on!"
Fwoosh— Stella's robes dropped completely.
"Hyaaaaa!!" Dila practically screamed, turning around so fast she almost slipped on the smooth floor.
Her whole face lit up as red as a magma core, and steam shot off her ears like kettle whistles.
She slapped her palms over her eyes like her soul would escape through them.
Stella tilted her head and laughed softly,
"Oh come on~ Dila, don't be such a baby. We're both girls, nothing to hide here, right?"
