Accidental Video - Heaven's BBS - October 30th

[clothes_make_the_man]

[Usually after his morning fashion routine, can be seen out and about in the Far Shore, or at least behind his temple tending the lotus flowers in his garden. Today, however, he is nowhere to be found. This might be a cause for concern if not for the video feed that is eventually broadcast from inside his temple. There's a light meow from one of D2's cats briefly pawing at Forrest's phone as the feed clicks on, showing Forrest still dressed in his bathrobe and slippers, hair pinned up, and utterly riveted to a marathon of Say Yes to the Dress. And apparently he's just as opinionated as the various bridal entourages on the show itself, judging from the things he yells at the screen every so often. Excerpts follow.]

Oh, honey, no, listen to Randy!

That's awful! Your mom isn't getting married in this dress, you are!

Aww, don't listen to them, I think you look absolutely darling in that lace!

Oh... that's just... oh. Well, I suppose the important thing is she likes it.

I need to meet Pnina Tornai.

[Forrest's reply doesn't come until a minute or so later, after he's looked at the link.]

I had no idea... it looks like I have a lot to catch up on.

[priforprince]

Start with these. [ Hibiki sends along a list of a few episodes that happen to feature some of the most elaborate dresses. ] They're sure to prove inspirational.

[ Shikyoin Hibiki has guaranteed the quality of this television program. Know the honor of being granted such insight! ]

[clothes_make_the_man]

Oh, thank you! I'm sure I'll be able to get a lot of good ideas from watching this. I just wish I could visit their store in person.

[priforprince]

...Is something stopping you?

[ You're, well. Divine. In multiple senses.

And she also possesses neither shame nor restraint. ]

[clothes_make_the_man]

Well, I'd have to have a wedding coming up...

[priforprince]

Someone who prays to you must be planning matrimony.

[ Just. Statistically. ] And a god's will is always just.

[clothes_make_the_man]

Oh! I didn't even think of that! I could find a follower that's planning a wedding and take her on a trip to Kleinfeld as part of her entourage!

[priforprince]

I'm sure the opportunity would bring blessings to your name.

[ Now you're thinking like Shikyoin Hibiki. There is always a way to please an audience while doing exactly what you want.

She feels like she has really brought light to your life, here. ]

[clothes_make_the_man]

Thank you for the idea, Hibiki! I never would have come up with something like that on my own.

[priforprince]

I live to inspire.

[ The sad thing is, it's kind of true. ]

[clothes_make_the_man]

I'll let you know how it turns out. Do you think they'll let me meet Randy?

[priforprince]

Of course. [ Hibiki is blindly confident of this. She is the puniverse's go-to source for advice about throwing one's weight around. ] Everything a god wills is just.
