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 kind of top would you recommend?

[She paused at Emily's question before nodding with a shy smile.]

I suppose it is rather obvious, isn't it? But yes, I am of noble birth but I assume my title does not count here.

[She needed to be free of being the queen for a little bit.]

Just about anything. A tank top with a jacket over it, so you can be ready for if it's warm or not here.

[Fashion can be both beautiful and practical, especially here.]

Oh cool. I grew up with a lot of money back home, but that's not the same. [It's not like she was responsible for a geographic region or anything.] Anyway, yeah, none of that means anything here. We had some princess here for a little while who acted like being royalty actually mattered here. So annoying. She didn't last very long. Guess the Door had enough sense to take her back.

What is a tank top?

[Anne likes jeans so far, she feels so liberated from the skirts and corset. She paused as she listened to Emily talk about the princess, frowning slightly.]

It seems she hasn't learned that royalty isn't just a title, it's not something to be flaunted. A royal is nothing without their people and it's their duty to serve their people.

[It's something she wouldn't wish on anyone.]

[This is not the first time that question has come up in this place, and by now, Emily has a good number of sketches to show people. She hands one of them to Anne so she can see.] They're super comfortable.

[Admittedly, Emily has never spent much time thinking about what it means to run a country, either in the past or the present. As far as she has thought about it, though, she believes that the people in charge have to think of the people who've put them in power.

It's good to know that wherever Anne is from, she understands the responsibility of her social class.]

I know, right? Even Hope gets that he has to listen to us and keep us mostly safe.

[Anne took the sketch, peering at it.]

There are no sleeves! This is something that's worn without any kind of covering?

[Anne smiled at Emily agreement, nodding.]

I admit that it is nice to set aside my title, even just for a bit. I have never been just...myself. And I suppose it's only fitting that I have new clothes to go with this change.
