It's actually called a yoke; I didn't make that up. I would imagine clutching it to one's breast would make for a significant change in attitude.
I was definitely thinking of the non-italics being in Dawn's POV. I agree that whatever dress River would be wearing wouldn't particularly show off her curves; however, both Faith and Dawn have good imaginations.
I'm glad the stuff that worked for you did, and your comments about the other stuff are food for thought. Thank you again for such delicious crit-heavy feedback! It's very flattering to be the subject of such attention and thought; I really appreciate it.
