[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!

Aren't they? I thought they might fit me.

[ He gestures to himself with a slight wave of his hand, adjusting his expression to add a bit more confidence. Forrest said he was a boy, so Reiii would tone down his charm (unconsciously) even if he dresses like a girl. ]

I'm still working, so I can't pay you a full sum upfront. Do you mind if I pay in instalments? I can also offer my help if you'd like.

[ He doesn't have a lot of specific skills other than being physically fit and singing. It's... kind of sad. [

[Forrest doesn't mind, really. He prefers girls, but it isn't as if he didn't know some pretty fabulous boys at home. Shigure springs to mind.]

That should be fine. I mostly need to make sure I can cover the cost of materials so I can keep replenishing my stock. I wouldn't mind some help, either - are you familiar with sewing?

[heiring]

[ That's... well, a good question. ]

I'm not so sure. I don't have memories of doing it, so I doubt I'll be on your standards. But if you need people to run a courier service or whatever, I can do that.

[ Maybe he should have thought up this better before he asked. Oh well. ]

[clothes_make_the_man]

Hmm...

[Forrest frowns for a moment, tapping his cheek in thought.]

I already have Sonic delivering my supplies, but I suppose you could help in getting the finished products to the customers.

[heiring]

[ Since Forrest already has a courier, he doubts he'd be any better. ]

If it's inconvenient, that's okay. I'll just pay with money.

[ Conceding defeat with a smile. ]

[clothes_make_the_man]

Sorry about that. I'll let you know how much it'll be after I price some materials.

[heiring]

Not a problem. Hit me up anytime.

[ There's a pause. He feels like he hasn't said enough. ]

Thank you. I'll let more people know about your work, too.

[clothes_make_the_man]

Thank you very much! I hope you'll be satisfied with the final product. If there's anything you'd like me to modify once it's finished, please let me know.
