[Forrest is even more dressed up than usual today, rocking a sweet lolita outfit on the advice of his good friend and fellow fashion buff, Speed of Sound Sonic.  He seems to be in an exceedingly good mood, judging from the smile on his face and the way his curls have that extra little bounce to them today.]

Hello, everyone!  For those of you I haven't met, my name is Forrest, and my passion is making beautiful clothing.  Since it seems like I'll be staying here in Takamagahara for a while, I thought I would offer my services to the other gods and their shinki.  And so, I'm proud to announce the grand opening of my clothing shop and beauty salon, Heavenly Couture!

[Forrest gives a little twirl in front of the camera, pulling on something just out of frame.  A banner unfurls behind him, sporting the name of the business in colorful and fancy hand-drawn letters.]

My first commission is already spoken for, but as of today, I'm officially taking requests.  Prices are negotiable based on the complexity and necessary materials, and I promise to work closely with every client to make sure you're completely satisfied.  I also offer hair, nail, and skin treatments here at Lakshmi's temple for anyone looking for that little extra touch.

[Smiling sweetly, he laces his fingers together and bows his head to the camera.]

I look forward to seeing you all soon!

Wow~! It's so cute!

[Little cupcakes on the skirt? All those pretty bows? Sparkle eyes over here.]

Would you make me something too? I'll save up money for it.

[Because she has any way to get money. Well, she'll cross that bridge when she comes to it.]

[Elise, you're killing him with cuteness.]

Of course I will. I think I have an idea of the sort of clothing you might like.

[lilys_poise]

You do? That's amazing! How can you tell?

[Sorcery!]

[oathkeeper]

Oh you can advertise stuff like this on here?

[clothes_make_the_man]

I thought it would be the best way to reach a large audience all at once and show off an example of what I can do.

[erogappa]

What are you asking in return?

Re: text;

[clothes_make_the_man]

I was thinking just money, but I suppose trading goods or services would be fine as well.

[cursedblood]

Such as usage of another's resources?

I would like to see your work.

[clothes_make_the_man]

Thank you, Naminé! And don't worry, I haven't forgotten about your commission either. Consider the drawing you did for me payment.

[chainbroke]

Are you sure? Clothes take a much longer time to create than a drawing...

[twiceinhabited]

[Oh, she remembers him.]

Hello, Forrest. ['Sup.] I have no need for new clothes, yet. But I wouldn't mind requesting one from you one day.

[Maybe once Amane have a better sense of what she can offer as a price.]

[clothes_make_the_man]

Oh, hello again, Amane. It's good to see you doing well.

[Smiles all around.]

That's fine, I'm available whenever you need it.

Whoooaaa oh my goodness you and that outfit are so pretty!!! I think I might come to you to get my hair done at the very least depending on how often I can afford it.

Re: Text

[clothes_make_the_man]

I'll be happy to style your hair whenever you like. It shouldn't be too expensive - just enough for me to replenish my stores.

[shiitan]

Is there really that big of a demand for custom made clothes?

[...Says the guy whose idea of fashion is to wear nothing but black.]

[clothes_make_the_man]

It's gotten a fairly good reception so far.

[moonfang]

can you make me some clothes that aren't white

[clothes_make_the_man]

I can make them any color or pattern you want.

[heiring]

[ The clothing is so elaborate that Reiji has to reply in video. It comes with an added bonus that his voice sounds quite similar to Leo's. ]

Your work is amazing! Is there a commission queue that you can put me on?

[clothes_make_the_man]

[It actually takes Forrest a moment or two to sort out that this isn't his father before he responds.]

...Oh! Yes. Yes, of course. Did you have something in mind?
