Description
Summary: A Daria drabble. Quinn looks on the bright side of her recent tragedy.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It wasn't so bad, really.
...Okay, so it was really bad. But Quinn was trying to think positive! But it was hard, with everything that she had lost. Oh, how she missed her perfect skin! How smooth and soft it had been, pale pink and utterly flawless, almost never with a single pimple or blemish...she looked so different, now. But she could deal with it. She would have to, until the reanimation technology was perfected and she could really be alive again.
At least she still had her hair. Sure, you couldn't wear your old skin---at least not without looking really weird, skin suits still hadn't gotten past the serial killer stage of technology yet---but her original hair had been salvaged before she had decayed enough for it to become dry and icky. Locks of Love had a side organization for the reanimated, so now Quinn had a hairpiece made from her own original red locks. At least it still looked good. Why, on any normal girl you never could have even known that it came from a corpse!
One day, Quinn would look beautiful again, when she was alive or they made a working synthetic skin or something to help people like her. But until then, she had her hair. And that would have to be enough.
