"The more I know, the more I can help," Zippy pointed out, and offered her a friendly smile. "I'll tell you a secret if you tell me it."

Trixie loved some good gossip, so she nodded, chewing her lip. "I used to dance over at MayBelle's, by the river. A lot a' the girls -- me included -- we...well, we sometimes let the guys...we all lived there, in rooms on the second floor, and we..." She couldn't quite seem to get it out.

Zippy looked at her, and decided to assume what she was about to say. This was sort of good, actually, because she had been meaning to ask... "You girls. Did any of them...do stuff to protect themselves? So they wouldn't get pregnant?"
((you should consider reading "Sex Wars" by Marge Piercy. I really enjoyed it, its takes place in NYC during 19th century. about the feminist sex wars. The main character makes condoms in her apartment and sells them to brothels and pharmacies.))

((Oo, will do! I'll get it on my Kindle!))
She blushed furiously, but nodded. "We used to use those, what do ya call em? Condoms? Ya know, the skins. And the round ones you shove up in ya."

((its kinda a slow read, but I think you'll really enjoy it. very feministy, pretty sexual, and its during an era that I know you love!))
"How do I get some? I love David, but I can't get knocked up," Zippy told her in a hushed voice, even though it was just the two of them in the apartment. "And he would hate me if I got it...taken care of."

((Whee!))
She nodded, understanding. "I've never used 'em with Eli, but I'm sure I could find some from one a' the girls at the Hall. I'll ask around."

"thank you!" She said to Trixie, now extremely fond of her. She glanced at the clock.

Trixie smiled, glad she'd found a friend. "When's Eli usually get home? I went and bought this ridiculous dress for him. Makes my boobs look huge."

"your boobs do look great," zip agreed, grinning. The door opened, but it was only David. Zip groaned.

David smirked. "Gee, honey, it's nice to see you, too." He came over, leaning down to kiss her cheek.
Trixie giggled a little, amused.

Trixie waved, smiling. "Hi. Heard a lot about ya."
David nodded, smiled at her. "Hi, Trixie. You're the girl Eli's been seeing."

The door opened again, and Eli and Luke came inside, laughing and followed by two girls. "Trixie!" he exclaimed, going over to her and kissing her. He had alcohol on his breath.

Trixie barely kissed him back, too focused on the two girls giggling behind him. "I--where were you?"

"out with a few of the guys. I didn't know you were stopping by, Sweets, otherwise I woulda came straight home." Eli managed to sit on the ledge of her chair, although he was a bit wobbly.
At this point, zippy was furious with him. "Eli. Who are they?" she pointed rudely at the two girls.
"Luke's friends," Eli replied smoothly, but he was fighting a laugh.
