Don't you want to see these clothes on me?

[redrosediva]

Finally! After months of work, my store is finally open!

[Does a small flourish with her parasol at her store, which is filled with mannequins dressed in finery of all sorts. For men and women, from subtle and traditional to modern and flashy, for every day wear and for balls, and for every instance in between]

I didn't travel all the way from New Armes to let an earthquake and a fire stand in the way of my destiny as a FASHION DIVA. Oh no!

In fact, to celebrate my rise from ashes, I'm even having a sale! It's a prefect time to get a new dress or suit for the New Year's ball! Yes now is the prefect time to come get a fitting so that it'll be ready by New Years!

[ Looking at what's on offer, he quickly determines that this is more up Elaine's alley. ]

So... how much for the mannequin?

[redrosediva]

The mannaquin or what's on the mannaquin?

[duke_of_hazard]

I don't care much what's on the mannequin, unless it comes with an eyepatch. It would make a nice training dummy, wouldn't it?

[redrosediva]

I... Suppose, but doesn't the dojo already have those?

[duke_of_hazard]

Honey, I'm trying to barter with you here, but you gotta meet me halfway!

[belfar_agent]

[ Lurking from behind a mannequin, she's feeling the fabric of the skirt that's on display. ]

S-Such quality..!

[redrosediva]

Oh! I'm glad you approve!

Now, I have that catsuit you mentioned you wanted if you're still interested.

[belfar_agent]

[ But that dress! ]

Hmm? Oh-- yes! Indeed. I am soon to embark on new endeavors, a sneaking suit would surely be of great help.

[redrosediva]

Excellent!

I have it in the back, let me go grab it. [Bustles away and is back a short time later with a package]

There's a dressing room in the back. Try it on and tell me if anything needs adjusted.

[belfar_agent]

Fine, but I better not find any weird perverts lurking back there. I shoot to kill!

[judgementscythe]

[steps inside and starts looking around at all the clothes.]

Some things never change. You know you should have accepted our invite. I'm sure the prince would have loved to have seen you again

[redrosediva]

I'm sure he would have. But I needed to focus on the shop. [Looks around, and lowers her voice] Also, I didn't want to risk my brother finding me. I know they must have thought me dead for years now. It's probably for the best they keep thinking that.

[judgementscythe]

[laughs to herself and gives a little smirk]

You have no idea

I see you are finally all set up. You know I could use a small cloak as a gift for my daughter back home. Could you make me something special?

[redrosediva]

Of course! I'd be happy to make something for your daughter!

I take it you have some news about my family, then?

[judgementscythe]

I don't think I should say anything. I don't want to ruin the surprise.

[redrosediva]

M-my brother isn't coming here is he?

[judgementscythe]

I doubt your brother will be leaving Armes any time soon with all that's happenibg there.

[Shoon steps into the shop with his fine ridiculously oversized championship belt around his waist]

Josephine! I need your help!

[redrosediva]

Oh, Shoon dear, whatever is the matter?

[gladiatorfist]

I need something Stylish! A nice robe that can go with my championship. I don't just need a robe. I NEED A JOSEPHINE!

[redrosediva]

Okay, calm down. Now tell me exactly what you need.

[gladiatorfist]

Something spectacular! Something that works with this! [he smacks the gigantic gold belt around his waist] Something that says, CHAMPION!

[Klaus checks out a gray wool jacket that appeals very much to his sensibilities: formal enough to wear to a dinner engagement, but at the same time, not too flashy to wear to the office...Well, Highlanders are known for being a pragmatic lot, all in all.]

[redrosediva]

Oh my! That jacket would look quite dashing on you!

[windamierofdunan]

...Oh! Do you think so...? Hah, you're too kind...

[Smiles, somewhat shyly. He's definitely more of a "hard-nosed" negotiator than first appearances might suggest, but that doesn't mean that he's completely immune to flattery either.]

Well, this is a lovely boutique you have here, m'lady.
