Video - Sept 27th

[clothes_make_the_man]

Hello, everyone. I trust you've all seen the invitation to Amaterasu's autumn banquet by now. Normally with a party like this coming up, I'd open up clothing commissions, but unfortunately even I can't work that quickly. That said, I should still be able to manage some beauty treatments over the next few days in between some other work and my own preparations. If anyone is interested, please feel free to reply here or stop by Lakshmi's temple. I'll do my best to fit everyone in.

[He may be biting off a bit more than he can chew here, but that's Forrest for you.]

I just need another haircut, if you don't mind.

I'd like to come over for one, if you don't mind. I'm planning to look for a dress later in the day, so if you've got time earlier I'd be happy to do it then.

I've been thinking about it and normally I'm not much for big social things but I feel like I was keeping to myself too much the past few weeks.

Anyway I can make my own clothes but I'm not sure what would be the right thing to wear for this. Can you give me some advice?

[voice]

[irishfriskey]

Oh, you make clothes?

voice.

[clothes_make_the_man]

Of course, father. That won't take long at all. Are you going with Aymeric?

Manicure and pedicure again this time?

Formal gowns are usually what's expected at an event like this, though I suppose a kimono wouldn't go amiss since it's Amaterasu hosting.

[voice]

[clothes_make_the_man]

That's right. If you'd like to commission something for after the banquet, I'd be happy to work with you on a design.

I
think I'm from Ireland originally so I guess a gown would make sense?
Or a Celtic styled dress?

Though I don't think they would go with my helmet. Maybe I should fashion a hood or something.

I am looking for something... for my god. He... uhm... could use some nicer clothing.

[brynwieldr]

I am. You'll be attending with Kairi I assume?

[declamando]

Yes, please, and if you've got the time I could use something for the face as well. I've been keeping up with my own routine, but a proper facial every so often doesn't go astray.

I think a Celtic style dress would look nice on anyone, but it's all down to personal aesthetics in the end. A hood shouldn't be difficult to work into that sort of ensemble if you're worried about it, though.

[voice]

[clothes_make_the_man]

I'm afraid I'll need you to be a little more specific than that.

voice.

[clothes_make_the_man]

Yes, we'll be there. I wouldn't miss a party like this.

He likes to wear a really mismatched Hawaiian shirt. I'm not sure what else might look good on him...

Mmm... oh! Are you familiar with how waiters sometimes look? A vest, white shirt underneath and nice pants?

[clothes_make_the_man]

I have some creams I bought on the Near Shore, but honestly, I've found the water from the healing pools in the temple does a perfectly fine job of keeping my skin smooth all on its own.

[voice]

[clothes_make_the_man]

Oh.

[The tone of Forrest's voice says it all. Those shirts are dreadful.]

Yes, I'm familiar with that sort of outfit. Something in that style, then?

[I have something in my
ah
collection
that should serve

A hooded cape would probably do best I think.

I just want to be able to make a good impression I guess?
Somehow I don't think Sharak or her other Shinki will be dressing up that much.]

[declamando]

Either one is fine, then. If it's been reliable for you then it's good enough for me.

I'm sure everyone has a different idea of appropriate dress for an occasion like this. But based on what I've heard about Amaterasu, she's probably more concerned with everyone having a good time.

[clothes_make_the_man]

It's better than anything I've found in stores. The only thing I've tried that works better is a special cream my friend Midori made for me once.

[mylanceisbiggerthanyours]

Oh, Ah was jus' 'bout to call ya up to ask for help. Nice timin'!

Um...Ah...might need help findin' a dress...an'...Ah...don't know much 'bout makeup...

[H e l p.]

[declamando]

Oh? They must be very skilled, then. [Still, if Forrest is going to be quite busy, she should keep the chatter here to a minimum.] I can come over as soon as is convenient for you, then.

[voice]

[irishfriskey]

[see you can relate.]

Yes. Something in a dark blue, if that's at all possible. I think it looks good on him.
