Anna smoothed her skirt and gave a cry of delight. “Never say I have pockets!?!”
YOU HAVE A RETICULE. YOU DON'T NEED POCKETS. also pockets have only JUST gone out of fashion because they ruin the silhouette of a regency gown so i HIGHLY DOUBT a swanky modiste is going to say "fuck fashion, i'm putting pockets in anyway because two centuries from now this will be considered feminist af"

Julian’s voice went deceptively soft. “I can make the Jockey Club reply to you.”
“Yes, you can.” Anna’s hand cupped his face. “But I can’t. That’s exactly my point.”

“I don’t want a haircut!” Anna cried.
She wasn’t a bit surprised when the women ignored her objection and thrust her down into a chair in the middle of the room.

“Marry me!” he commanded with a hard shake.
“Oh, all right!” she cried, and he swooped down and shredded her up all over again.
