I have a question for the other gods here.

Well, two questions, really.

First - do you prefer to introduce yourself by your given name or your god name?

And second - was anyone else called here to fill in for a god of the opposite gender? I'm having trouble deciding whether I should be calling myself the god or goddess of beauty and wealth.

I'll keep that in mind. Don't worry, I'll keep everything appropriately understated.

[mybadhabit]

Understated? Oh no, the formal pictures must have thrown you off. This style is not meant to be understated. I know it's a lot of black, but being punk is about making a statement.

That statement is "I don't play by the rules!"

"Don't mess with me unless you want to get hurt!"

"I'm tougher than you!"

"I can afford to wear clothing that's purposefully full of holes."

"You can never have enough buckles."

Shit, I need a bigger closet.

I guess I'm going shopping after this.

aka sonic is a big weird fashion nerd but he'll give you a lot of work to do and a challenge, forrest!

[mybadhabit]

Hush you, you wear clown shoes, you're not allowed to call anyone's fashion weird.

[clothes_make_the_man]

Oh... thank you! This is all very useful. I'll be sure to look this over when I'm working on your outfit.

[He's... just going to stay out of the argument.]

[mybadhabit]

[Don't worry about him and Sora, this is just how they do.]

No problem. And don't worry about accessories, I have plenty of those. I can send you pictures if you feel like there's anything you'd like to incorporate into the outfit.

[clothes_make_the_man]

I don't have as much experience with making accessories, so that's helpful. And the more references I have, the better.

[mybadhabit]

I hope I'm not overwhelming you too much with all this. I'm actually a bit excited about getting to share and discuss this with someone else. I don't get to do this very often.

No, not at all! I've never seen fashion like this before, so it will be good research. If you'll permit me some time to look it all over, I'm certain I can come up with something you'll really love.

[mybadhabit]

There's a lot of different fashions in this world! I did a lot of research when I left my village in order to find out the best way to fit in, and as it turns out there isn't really one right way, so I was able to pick the style that I liked best. You might want to look into the Lolita fashion for yourself, especially the Sweet Lolita sub-fashion. It looks like this!

Take your time with the design, I'm in no hurry!

[clothes_make_the_man]

It's so cute...! I've never seen anything like this before! I'll have to try making something like it once I have enough fabric.

[mybadhabit]

Right, you need fabric, of course! How could I overlook such an important detail? You'd want a shop's worth, ideally, for all the commissions you'll be taking, however, obtaining and maintaining such a collection may prove to be a hassle here on the Far Shore. After all, you'd want to purchase whole bolts of cloth, not just what you need for the project! That would not be efficient in the slightest!

Then again, I suppose you could always order things online and have them sent to my Near Shore shrine. I am the Messenger of the Gods, it would be in line with my duties to fetch your fabric and bring it to your temple.

[clothes_make_the_man]

That's so kind of you! I'm afraid I don't have any means of paying you for it at the moment, but I'll gladly pay you back once I have things up and running. Along with some extra for your delivery services. I'd hate to take advantage of your generosity.

[mybadhabit]

Oh no, think of it as an exchange for the marvelous outfit you're sure to design and make for me. It's a mutually beneficial transaction; I get a one of a kind look, and you get a little head start on your business.

[clothes_make_the_man]

I'll be certain to give it my absolute best effort, then. You won't be disappointed, I promise.
