Leave the masque to the Monégasque (OTA, backdated to a day or so before ballroom liminal)

[littleladyluck]

Monaco here, looking to assist and ask for assistance!

I would like to request the aid of those who can create items from nothingness to assist me in this endeavor, if at all possible. If not, then I will do my best to scavenge and salvage what I can for my mission.

My mission, of course, is to provide some frivolous frippery to whoever wishes to attend the upcoming ball in something new! If given the materials and tools I need, I will use all of my knowledge of fashion and clockwork to create costumes and expressive masks for whoever asks.

All I request in return is your ideas and honest feedback.

...And perhaps some food or access to a kitchen. I have not eaten since I became a Traveler. I don't need to eat, but. I like to, sometimes.

I can't make much, but with my clothes the way they are, I'm about one Jaunt away from becoming a nudist. If you wouldn't mind helping prevent that...

[littleladyluck]

I would be honored! I hope that you'll let me get to know you a bit better. Or, at least, let me know a few interests of yours. Mythology, characters from novels or other media, historical figures?

[fridgeninja]

Mythology's a pretty big interest.

[littleladyluck]

Oh, fantastic. Any particular figures that you prefer? Humans or deities or otherwise, I will do my best no matter what you give me!

[fridgeninja]

I know Japanese, Norse, Christian, and European fairies best...

[littleladyluck]

Oh, interesting sources indeed! Let me see, hm...

In regads to Japan's side of things, would going for a fox theme be too overdone? Ooh, or we could go simple and dress you in something elaborate and traditional, but with a noppera styled blank mask. Moretta influenced, but perhaps fastened another way.

Or, with general European things in mind, a variant on the Ellerwomen stories? Hollow and heartless with an urge to dance through the night and into the morning. I don't find you to have these qualities, mind you! But design elements involving keyholes in fabric in heart shapes and a general sullen atmosphere could be very dramatic!

[too hype for life, sorry friend]

[fridgeninja]

A fox is fine. Especially if I wind up with an excuse to ask people for money.

[littleladyluck]

Then heavy fox influences! Would you prefer western style clothing or something more traditionally Japanese in design?

[fridgeninja]

If it's just for the ball, something Japanese. If it's something I'd wear every day, something Western.

[littleladyluck]

I can work with either! I'm not as practiced in strictly traditional Japanese clothing, but I have been learning more from him recently. I had been, at least. I can make a suit or a tux in my sleep, though! It really is all up to you. I simply aim to please!

Next time we're in a vaguely modern Jaunt and I am myself, I will stick a lot of clothing in my coat for you.

Some detective I am, not noticing how badly off you are.

[Private]

[fridgeninja]

We haven't been wearing a lot of clothes, lately.

And there's my new leather jacket.

[Private]

[shiroganeheir]

... suddenly glad I took this private.

All of that is true, but you cannot go around just in a leather jacket. I could possibly also talk to Kanji.

[Private]

[fridgeninja]

He offered already, and I forgot.

[Private]

[shiroganeheir]

Souji...

I'll make sure you do, alright?

[Private]

[fridgeninja]

That's fine.

I've been thinking about other things.

[Private]

[shiroganeheir]

Anything you want to talk through?

I'm finishing something up, but I can be back in our room soon.

[Private]

[fridgeninja]

I meant it wasn't long after my clothing started falling apart that we got separated.

[Private]

[shiroganeheir]

Oh.

Clearly my mind is somewhere else, sorry.

Re: [Private]

[fridgeninja]

The Trumps?

[Private]

[shiroganeheir]

Trumps, things my Shadow said... just... many places.
