The ground was much softer than anticipated. And far more red. Actually, that probably wasn't the ground, now that she was thinking on it. The ground didn't tend to pull you closer to it, unless there was something seriously different in Aeris. Bridget's (for it was probably Bridget, and not the ground that had grabbed Tiff) grip on her was secure, and that... was probably the only reason Tiff didn't end up with a damn concussion or something.
As it was, she stayed curled against Bridget, pointedly ignoring the way she could feel her chest pressing against her cheek and half of her hair, and just silently prayed that her outfit wouldn't be too ruined by this (frankly disastrous) tumble.
Sadly, that was not the case.
Tiff's hair was covered in bits of grass and leaves. Half out of its ponytail, stray strands stuck up every which way, including a rather comical looking lock that was sticking almost completely straight out in front of her ear. her cravat was askew, and one of her suspenders was hanging off of her shoulder, causing the right half of her outfit to droop slightly. The flower had miraculously managed to stay in, though the petals were bruised and filthy. As Tiff sat up, not quite realizing their position, one of the pale lavender petals drifted free of the flower and landed directly on Bridget's nose.
For a moment, Tiff could only stare blankly at Bridget beneath her, her hands planted firmly on either side of her chest. In the back of her mind, she noted that grass, dirt, and other bits of nature did nothing to really diminish how pretty she looked. Her eyes flicked down to the petal.
Back up to Bridget's eyes.
Back to the petal.
"Most people buy me dinner first, you know," She said blithely, with her actual mouth that was moving and saying words. Terrible. And speaking of words, there were words being spoken by people that weren't either of them! Very close by!
...It was the King! And what looked to be a collection of. Children. For some reason that she didn't quite understand. Hm. She was still sitting on top of his Librarian.
...She should probably move.
(She did not move.)
