I remember the first "personal" bridal shower I attended was for a friend of my sister's--everyone gave her the usual sexy lingerie, except for her very conservative mother, who actually gave her a flannel nightie, full-length!
What? She killed 'em with mathematics. What else could it have been?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
could it be that the cup doesn't fit properly?
I guess it's this -- I've never found a non-full-coverage bra that fits properly, then. Because even unlined, if it's demi, I just have to inhale, and they're leaping for freedom again. Or pulling away from the cup. They're very willful, my breasts.
I hate them.
At least today.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Demis are made to put your ta-tas on display, like a pastry in a patisserie.
They're supposed to jump out at innocent bystanders. And growl. Or something.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I just have to inhale, and they're leaping for freedom again.
What a fabulous image.

Yeah, but I've been lead to believe they're not supposed to be cut in half. And by demis I mean anything not full coverage. No go. Can't do. Out of the question.

Ok, now I'm flashing on all the Beatrice Small books I read in HS in which the heroine's massive breasts were invariably described as "birds (or doves) flying free into his callused yet gentle palms."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That just sounds weird, JZ. Sounds like nervous jokey -- like they didn't know what to do PLUS had the one opportunity to deal with "sexy" things.
I will say, I was horribly disappointed that everyone at my cousin's shower but me and a couple of other people bought stuff off the registry. That's no fun!! There was not a negligee to be seen.

Mine don't do that. Mine are serious about getting free, and are willing to amputate themselves for it.
It's like strapping Kunta Kinte to your rib cage every morning.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In a desparate attempt to entertain myself, I have been scouring craigslist, and finally made my way to the personals. Here's what one guy has to say about himself:
I have a good head of hair. I have no back hair. I am funny. I can run very fast, for short periods of time, but I walk quickly, and can do so all day.
I somehow find this endearing.
