[living in England for so long, Mandy's well used to rain. That doesn't mean she's especially fond of it, but it does mean she's willing to brave it to go out when it's necessary. However, she doesn't bother with doing anything about her makeup and hair unless she's going to the club, and even then she waits until she's there.
So if you see her in the streets, you'll just see a woman with a bleach job that is quickly growing out and a black coat pulled tight and high to both to shield herself from the worst of the rain and to hide most of her face. Not just because she looks dreadful, no matter what Arthur might say, but because the rain makes her…
Well, as much as she hates it, it's making her bloody nostalgic. For the days when she and Brian didn't have a driver, or even a car that worked reliably. When they would go to secondhand stores together to find things like old curtains or dresses to make into costumes for him, when they stayed up all night talking about the possibilities space could hold, and so many other things that somehow still broke her heart.
Which means that she might be stopped dead in her tracks at some point, staring into the rain, possibly with an unlit cigarette dangling from her lips, as she's sucked into the past]
B. Shelter
[it's funny, that a place she's partially modeled off of Brian's first real venue makes her trip down memory lane less than being outside, but the Masquerade is so wholly hers that being here doesn't hurt at all.
Once she has her hair rung out and pinned to hide most of her roots and a little bit of makeup on, she can be found alternately joking and singing bawdy ditties on the little stage or wandering over to whomever might be looking for a refuge themselves. In fact, she might walk over to you, leaning over to show off what the black blazer and loose white puffy shirt she usually wears hardly conceal at that angle, bracelets jangling as she puts her hands on your table or leans her elbows on the bar next to you]
