Was she too nervous? She was definitely too nervous. But Helena had been nervous about almost everything lately, she was just very good at hiding it. Hopefully Sprinkles didn't catch on, Helena wanted them to feel comfortable.
Helena kinda felt bad about their first meeting, she had frozen up and had not known how to react on Sprinkles' words. But the nek0 seemed nice, and Helena wanted to try and see if they could get along, or even be friends. And Helena hadn't lied about liking Sprinkles' facial features and colours, she wanted to see what different styles of makeup would fit them.
Helena had her makeups out, ready for action, and she set her hands on her hips, huffing a bit. She had told Destra she was busy this afternoon and didn't need checking up on, so she was ready for Sprinkles.

Helena stepped out from her room and walked downstairs to the dorm lobby to wait for Sprinkles. She herself was without makeup, so she could maybe show some techniques on her own face. It would make it easier for Sprinkles to understand. After all, this was also supposed to be a learning experience as well.

Sprinkles took some time to arrive. He wasn't sure what to wear that would look good for different types of makeup. Eventually, he settled on something feminine: a white sweater, pink overalls dress, a hoodie, and thick white tights made for the winter. It made him feel a bit uneasy, since he was supposed to be acting like a boy, but it made him feel cute.

When Sprinkles met up with Helena, he looked a bit nervous. "Hope I didn't keep you waiting. I'm all ready to go. I even brought my own makeup supplies in case yours didn't match my skin tone." He patted a small satchel hanging beside his waist.

Helena received Sprinkles with a wave and a smile, she hadn't been waiting but for a few minutes. Although it had felt like forever.
"You didn't, keep me waiting that is. That was really thoughtful of you, we do have really different skin tones. I have different shades, but one of them might not have fit with you."
The conversation was going well so far. Sprinkles' outfit was nice, but Helena decided to mention that later in a more subtle way so she wouldn't make them uncomfortable.

"My room is on the second floor."
Helena began leading Sprinkles to her room, down the hall and up the stairs. Helena's room was all the way at the end of the hallway, and when Helena opened the door and let Sprinkles enter first he'd see a small foyer with some coat hangers and shoe rack. Further in there was a spacious living space with a small separate kitchen, soft-looking sofa and armchair and low table with Helena's makeup spread on top of it, maybe a bit messily. The decor was generally colourful, and Helena had done bold choices here and there that worked surprisingly well. And some looked like a aesthetic mess.
"Okay, you can sit anywhere you like. Do you want something to drink, or eat? I don't really have food food since I don't need to eat but I have snacks.

Sprinkles nodded. Helena was pale, and Sprinkles was a mixture of brown and white. He felt only some of the products would work with his face, and not even completely.

Sprinkles followed Helena up to her dorm, looking around in awe. "Your place is so nice. Mine still needs to be fixed up, but money's tight right now. And, uh, no thank you. I already fed myself earlier. I'm ready to get right to the fun stuff."

Helena didn't really like bragging or spreading around that she was a young miss and an heiress to a fortune. So when Sprinkles complimented the apartment Helena felt a bit embarrassed, she had gotten this place because of her wealth. She shook her hand a bit with a small smile on her face.
"Thank you, I try my best to make it pleasing to the eye. If you want I can also give you decor tips."

When Sprinkles suggested moving on to the fun stuff Helena grinned a bit and chuckled, giving a nod.
"Straight to the point. Excellent."
Helena went and sat on the couch by Sprinkles, not too close so they still had their own space. Helena spread out her makeups a bit, there were many coloured lipsticks, eyeshadows, eyeliners and such, and Helena had tried to gather the ones that matched Sprinkles' colour palette.
"Do you have anything specific you want to try? Or let's start from the very beginning, how much experience do you have with makeup?"

Sprinkles rejected the offer for decor tips. He knew how to decorate a house. The issue was just money and only being able to use the furniture given to him. Plus, he was saving up for many other things.

Helena seemed just as eager to get right to the makeup, which ended up hyping Sprinkles more. Sprinkles laid down his own array of makeup supplies, most being pastels. There was even colorful glitter in there.

"I've been using makeup for years, but only at home. I'm good enough to do some pretty great cosplay though. My biggest worry is not knowing what kind of makeup is attractive here. So... I'd like to try anything that'd make me prettier."

Sprinkles' didn't have as much makeup as Helena, but that wasn't strange at all. Helena in a way collected interesting or expensive makeup, beauty was a passion of hers after all.
Sprinkles' makeup looked like it was picked out with care, and it matched Sprinkles. But they were here to experiment and Helena wanted to try out bolder colours as well.

"Oh, I've tried out some cosplay as well. I've been Sailor Moon and, hm, I think the character was called Lucy Heart-something."
Helena laughed a bit, early teenage years had been fun time.
"I think almost any kind of makeup is attractive if used correctly. Let's see..."
Helena observed Sprinkles' own makeups more closely, trying to see what colours they had used the most and such.
"Let's start simple. What are your favourite colours?"

Someone else who cosplayed! Sprinkled was ecstatic to know someone else had an interest in cosplay. If Sprinkles was honest, he wasn't too interested in it. He enjoyed pretty outfits, but not looking like another person and playing the part. Still, he had his old outfits, so knowing other people here liked cosplay too made him feel less weird now that his dad wasn't here.

Oh right, makeup. That was what Sprinkles was here for, not to chat all day about cosplay. Anyway, what Helena asked was easy to respond to. "I like every color that's part of my hair," he said with a few giggles, "but I think my most favorite would be purple. Blue would be second. Sometimes black? I don't super like dark colors, but I really enjoy the whole 'creepy cute' thing and it fits well."

Sprinkles' answer wasn't surprising, and it was helpful for Helena. She chuckled along with Sprinkles and picked out her own purple eyeshadow. Not quite the same pastel shade that Sprinkles had, it was a bit more bright.
"Your hair does give many possible options to try out. Would you let me put on some makeup for you, and if you like it I'll explain how I did it? I believe you'll pick it up fast."
Helena was starting to get excited, and she didn't bother hiding it. Playing with makeup and otherwise looks and beauty was her favourite hobby.

Sprinkles couldn't help but look a bit anxious. He didn't usually do brightly colored eyeshadow. Most of the time, the only makeup he used was to hide any blemishes he had, to brighten his lips, or to just go along with some cosplay.

"Um... I don't mind you putting on the makeup. Sorry. Just a bit anxious. I'm worried it'll only look good for, er, one skin tone. Or it's too bright for me..." Sprinkles fidgeted, both out of anticipation and nervousness. "I believe you'll make it look great though." He made sure to tack that on in case it seemed like he had no hope Helena could make him look good.
