She chuckles, brief - "I am glad to hear it. We dress... very differently in my homeland, as I am sure you've noticed." Obviously, was that not how this all started? "Which is not to say we take any less pride in our appearance, of course. But it is... hot, there. Beyond even the worst days of this summer could dream of." It's chuckled, rather than admonished.

She has spoken English, or whatever the term here was for it, for many years now, but it was still the fourth language she had learned. Switching between them took its brief toll, had a tone that was richer in her voice when she spokes names, that let her voice become deeper roll smoother, not quite so clipped on each vowel. " - and a lengha, or a long skirt. There are also the shawls, or dupattas, as well, to match each one. None of which I think you will find to be unfeminine."
