since a whole bunch of you just got here, i just wanted to point out that if you need clothes altered or tailor made so you have more than just the clothes you got here in, i have a standing deal with delight: tell her one happy memory, and she'll give you a bolt of good cotton fabric in a solid color

we have a sewing shop by the lake. [attachment: map.jpg] you'll know it when you see it

pell and i can mend and sew or teach you how to sew your own clothes

[She's about to post this when she remembers her new bff, who goes just about everywhere with her. On most days. Unless he's hunting.]

lately i bring our house's wolf when i'm there. he's nice, but he will attack you if you're an asshole

[That last part is a lie, but she's just going to leave it at that.]


(ooc: Action logs with Emily (and Wolfie) at the shop can be done in Emily's inbox or in the log comm. She's there pretty much every day and makes it a point not to be too mean to people, which... isn't saying much! I'm also down to handwave meetings.)

[What the fuck. And people think Emily is dramatic? This guy will give Bianca a run for her money.]

okay, come in for a fitting

[While Regis honestly means no harm, he's easily the most dramatic person in all of Hadriel. The seamstress should feel fortunate that she missed his *rants* about Hadriel and how much he hates living like some cave troll. The old king positively snapped for a second.]

My sincerest gratitude. With haste I'll arrive a little past noon or whatever semblance of time this accursed cave has!

[Fashionably late but never tardy, Regis manages to make his way towards the seamstress' shop with little delay. Forgive Regis if he seems somewhat overjoyed now. He was getting awfully sick of looking like a hipster as of late.

While he did manage to salvage decent clothes from what he calls "The Pile of Disappointment", Regis is quite unhappy wearing naught else but jeans and a button down office shirt. He managed to make the ensemble work with a nice black scarf and matching blazer but he utterly loathes it. Just straight up hates it as much as he hates his most foul adversaries.]

At last, I have arrived.

[He announces with a relieved sigh. Mind the fancy Altissian leather boots with the silver stocky heel, ladies. It's definitely Versace.]

[Bianca might take offense to the competition, but you do you, guy.]

sure, we'll be here

[She keeps busy with a project, not actually expecting him to show up until he comes into the shop like some wannabe rock star or stage magician. Emily can't decide which.

...but she's got to hand it to him, his fashion sense is good. Finally, the Door brings in people with a brain for clothes.]

You sure have. [Why is this her life. Why is everyone in this cave either dramatic or a nerd.

But anyway.] I'm not sure we have enough fabric in one single color to make you a full suit, so you might need to go request a bolt from Delight. And to be completely honest, this'll be my first blazer, but I don't half-ass my work. It might take a while, but when it's done, it'll be well-made.

[kingslight]

[The joyous look upon his face is instantly dampened by the seamstress' complaint about fabric. Regis let's out a deep sigh as he pinches the bridge of his nose in distress.

He's annoyed, woefully annoyed.]

So the False Ones would have me on my hands and knees begging for decent fabric. [The bitterness in his tone is almost palpable.] I see their game and I'm quite unwilling to play but Delight is acclaimed by many to be quite harmless at best.

[Another dramatic sigh.]

Very well. I'll speak with the alleged goddess but as for you, I don't doubt your talent and the wait would be well worth it. Anything for the sake of not looking like some barnyard drunk.

[The old king definitely has this odd mesh of Saks Fifth Avenue meets Shakespeare vibe to him. He's literally this odd mesh between two very different realities judging from his presence and speech alone. Such an pecuilar old man but quite dapper on some level.]

Forgive me for the lack of introduction on my part. I'll admit my excitement ran away with me. I am Regis Lucis Caelum.

[Suddenly, Emily wants to see this guy and Bianca trying to out-drama each other. It'd be one hell of a show.]

They don't want you to beg. [Jesus.] It's a simple trade.

[She doesn't think he looks that bad right now, but she has to agree about the lack of good clothes to wear here.] That's my job, apparently. Making people happy through making them good clothes.

[It's not fashion magazine editor, but it'll do for now.]

Emily Davis. [Since we're doing full names.] Nice to meet someone with a sense of fashion around here.
