Percy, with a mischievous twinkle in his eye, guided Vivienne to a quaint little boutique, where a display of fluffy, bunny-eared headbands caught their attention. The pure white, velvet headband, with its cute upright ears, looked like something out of a fairy tale, designed to charm and delight.

Grabbing one, Percy turned to Vivienne, his eyes glimmering with amusement.

Vivienne, however, was unimpressed. "Not my style," she said curtly, already moving to explore the rest of the shop.
