Just Like Old Times, Only More Ranting (Open)

Was Ami fully aware that Dehlia couldn't speak? Yes. Did she care? No. The tiny mouse was downright pissed by this...this...this fool who not only had been checking out books for nearly two months (an eternity as far as the petite woman was concerned) but had also asked about Amelia's height. The only one who could do that sort of thing and even remotely get away with it was her sisters, Diya, and a small handle of other close friends she had. But this woman?

Hell no.

Fortunately enough for Dehlia's sake, Amelia's sisters still existed. They weren't exactly looking to get kicked out of a store because their elder sibling had blown up a girl right outside. A feat they both new the tiny woman could accomplish if the paralyzed individual had really done something to earn the older Rose's ire. Rachel had let Ami say some of her piece to indicate what was frustrating her so much, but now she tried to speak. "<Amelia, you know we can't just leave her out here like this.>" The words came out cautiously and slowly. Nonetheless amber eyes flicked over rather quickly.

Dehlia, despite being the subject of the conversation, was temporarily forgotten.

"<Rachel this is my problem. I finally found her so I'm going to deal with it.>" Snapped the petite woman.

"<And what are you going to do? Kill her or something?>" That question was enough to make Amelia frown, though there was the faintest of hesitations in her cold expression.

"<What? No! I'm only going to teach her a lesson. She not only kept these books from me, but asked about my height!>" before Rachel could speak up in response though, a third voice chimed in.

"<Amelia please.>" Both Amelia and Rachel glanced over at Paige, who'd come out from the dressing room once Amelia had appeared again. Like Rachel she was exercising some caution, but she was also concerned. "<We both know you could do all manner of things to that girl, especially as she is now,>" there was a glance Dehlia's way before Paige looked back at Ami, "<And i think she's gotten the point. I sincerely doubt she meant any offense to you. I hardly think she even knew. Besides, you're scaring the workers here and causing a scene. Please just let her go. I'm sure now that she knows you she'll turn the books in.>"

With both of her sisters trying to talk her down, it was hard for Amelia to keep up her pissed off mood. Well okay, she was still pissed off but there was logic behind her sisters' words that she couldn't deny. She was causing a bit of a scene, and the last thing she wanted to do was get her sisters in trouble. They'd done so much for her already.

With a little groan, the petite woman deflated. The ice melted from her expression, leaving before frustrated flustered that at least wasn't as deadly. "Fine." Caving in, she switched back to normal speech before deactivating and removing the rune from Dehlia. Though there was a split tense second of pause where the tiny mouse almost debated on putting it back on. Luckily it passed, and instead she shot Dehlia a glare. "......Just make sure you put those books back unless you intend to actually read them this time. And if you don't, then don't take out so many." With that the girl moved past the woman to head back into the store.
