Er.... hello? Excuse me? I'm not entirely sure how to go about this. I hope I'm doing it properly!

Is there anyone that would be able to help me to make a dress? Nothing too complicated! But, ah, I've only just gotten here and I'm not sure how to make things, yet.

How nice of you to offer! I don't usually wear much makeup... have you done wedding makeup before?

I wouldn't trust her if I were you. [amused sounding]

I KNOW how to do make-up! I learned it all properly and I've done it before!

Yes, but you know how to do all sorts of things, and you like to fuck them up just for the fun of it. [points out, because he is definitely the sort of person who swears around children, and also he thinks this is kind of funny]

I wouldn't fuck up someone's make-up for their wedding.

....Unless they're mean or really rich. And she's neither.

Isn't she? Well, nice to know you have principles, they're important.

I totally have principles.

Do you?

Absolutely. Aesthetics is king. And wine. I'll say wine is king and aesthetics is queen, and I live by their law.

...I don't think that counts as moral principles, and that's what people usually mean when they say principles.

I don't see the harm in it. If I don't like the results, I can always wash it off, right?

Not necessarily. It depends on how it's done. ... though honestly, I'm not sure how liminal make-up works. Most of the things we make here disappear when we stop thinking about them, so I have no idea if make-up created by another person would stay on your face once the person who applied it is gone. That could be an interesting experiment.

Aah, I've heard about that, that you need to pay attention to your things or they'll vanish.

I suppose if she's invited to the wedding, it won't be a problem, will it?

I haven't been able to do it for someone for that occasion, but I learned how to do it.

I've done other kinds many times, though.

Where did you learn how? Is it a hobby of yours?

[She's quite honestly curious... and also no small amount amused.]

I learned it on a jaunt! Because my overlay was friends with a group of people, one of whom was a make-up artist.

And then I still knew how to do it after because sometimes those things stay.

Ah, right, they do! I've been told that. Have you had much of a chance to use it since then?

Only on jaunts. People here rarely need someone to do their make-up for them.

Not a lot of special occasions?

...I wonder what qualifies as a special occasion, when everything is so... special? Different?

Not a lot of occasions that people dress up for. We have balls around Christmas, and sometimes there's a wedding, but there's not many people here so there aren't a lot of them.

Oh! A Christmas ball sounds nice... That's something that the people here organize, is it? Or does it... just happen, like liminal space changing?

It's mostly organized by the Arcana, but people contribute.

...I think. Some people have managed to learn how to manipulate all of Liminal Space recently, so part of the overarching thing might have been Travellers this time, too.
