It’s a work meeting!
And look--it’s catered to bring you all in. Isn’t he nice? (Or devious...?)
“Alright. Thank you all for coming this evening--it’s been fairly slow for a while, but spring is approaching, and there’s about to be a rapid change in pace. I don’t have any solid data on Spirale’s springtime numbers, but I have a few estimates. So--I’ll get to those first. If you look at the table to your left, I’ve found some new inspirations and materials to work with.”
And true to his word, there were a few new fabrics and dyes under a black light, which glowed brilliantly due to the corals of the Swirling Gulf. Beside that were some budding flowers and various other flora from the Mistwood. Beside it were photos of the marvelous landscapes of the wards, for inspiration.
“Ideally, I’d love to play off of themes on the environment of the island. See me for any materials, and if you’d like something specific, I’ll see if I can cover the cost through the business. I want to try and show pieces that are a little on the unorthodox side; be creative. Now--”
To the crowd of workers, he turned.
“Marceline and Haruna, feel free to draft whatever you can. Hornet and I will try to interpret your ideas into tangible clothes.
“Houka and Peridot, you’re on repairs, but I’d love to have some pieces showcasing the technological side of the city. I think it’d be satisfying seeing one of our pieces in High Roller, don’t you?
“Zal, Lux, Martel and Yuki, I’d like you to try and do something a little different. I’ve actually made uniforms for all of you with a spring theme in mind. I trust you’ll wear them proudly. If the rest of you would like to join, I would be very pleased with you.
“And finally, Lady Yotsuyu, I’m going to challenge your use of contrast in most of your everyday outfits. Hopefully you spellbind any woman you come across. Chuck, I would also like to bring you out of your shell a bit. Garner wonder and attention.”
A clap of his hands, and he almost (almost!) looked delighted with everyone.
“Well! You have your instructions. Please see me for any further assistance. I’m increasing our hours as the daylight grows, so please look at your schedules. Good luck!”
(And if you would like to make your springtime uniform, you can use this website. I’ll post them to the Dressed to Kill blog!)
