8th Taunt | Video

[The video snaps on to reveal a parlor, a doorway behind the young blue-haired girl leading into the living room of the home that it had been built onto. A faint crackle of a fireplace resonates throughout the room, chairs positioned around a central table. The location of many a Fashion Club meeting, its use today was for something similar, but certainly not of the norm. Today, an important announcement was to be had, as well as an example to fashion that everyone should take note of.]

Hey everyone! I just wanted to show off something I made for a minute. Also, thanks so much to Hikaru for the sewing and fashion design lessons. If anyone wants something really gorgeous, you should totally go to Hikaru and Kaoru.

[She motions off-screen, although the person she’s trying to send some sort of signal to isn’t in view yet.]

Presenting...my first experiment in men’s fashion!

[She makes a little face when her signal isn’t responded to right away. Someone has missed his cue.]

C’mon Dad! You promised!

Alright, alright.

[From the side, he walks in, not quite looking dejected, but pretty close- hands in his pockets and looking away grouchily as he stands next to her. There’s an obvious bit of embarrassment in Vegeta’s face, but then again, it could be worse. And well, he did think he looked pretty good in the outfit she’s made for him.]

Thanks, Dad.

[Bulla is proud of her first successful attempt at making men’s clothing that doesn’t fit weirdly. She managed to go right from design, to making a simple pattern, and this is the end result. The outfit in question is a white turtleneck that’s fitted without being skin tight, complete with khaki pants, a belt, and a necklace.]

I didn’t make the necklace or the belt, but I did make the sweater and pants myself. So, Dad? How does it feel? It’s comfortable, right?

[He looks over to her, flushing lightly at the question. What, he’s got to give his opinion on this too? He didn’t sign up for this, at least he didn’t remember agreeing to such a thing. He was supposed to wear the darn thing, be done with it, and go about his business.]

It’s a shirt and pants, and they fit, I guess. I don’t see what’s so special about it.

[He folds his arms over his chest, the feel of the necklace irritating him further. He’s never worn one in his life and he can’t believe this was the start of it. Was this really fashionable for males to wear on Earth? How absurd.]

[Bulla whirls around with her hands on her hips.]

Dad! You don’t have to make it sound like it’s a chore. You could have just agreed that it’s comfortable.

Ah-! Fine, fine! [He picks at the sleeve uncomfortably.] None of it is uncomfortable to wear, and this turtleneck actually fits me in the shoulders and arms for a change, unlike that ridiculous clothing the Earthlings make back at home. There, is that what you were looking for?

[Bulla smiles and nods. She’s not going to expect him to talk about how great the clothes are. Just a little bit of public praise rather than grumping about it not being special is all she really wanted. The fact that he’s willing to support her interest is the more important thing overall.]

Thanks, Dad. That’s much better. I think we’re almost done here. But first I want to know what everyone thinks of my first try at men’s fashion! Your feedback is appreciated, everyone.

((OoC:  Responses will come from both Vegeta and Bulla!))
enchantressofore: Thanks to Tarot for the B/W bases! (Maybe you are not so terrible.)

Well, it sounds as if a gauntlet would be idyllic for you. [A nod and she continues to speak, and suddenly she seems more invested in the conversation...] A steel gauntlet would provide additional defense as well as more blunt damaging power than a bared fist alone. I can take measurements for your fit and potentially see what colouring I can do for the metal, depending on what you like.

Only if you promise to wear it on the club's opening night.

[ARE YOU A MIND READER?!] I'd-- love to! That's... That's what I was hoping!



[No seriously, are you? Wanda is creeped out by mind readers. How did you know?!]

Not officially, but my brother and I are going to inherit my mom's company -- she's world famous for her clothes -- once we're out of school.

[personal profile] fashionably_strong 2014-01-20 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Awesome! You get to have a cute new outfit and I get to show off my work.

[No mind-reading involved. Just a win-win scenario.]

Nope!

[... ...]

Well. [It's said without shame. Everyone does it with something.] Sometimes Kaoru does my literature homework. Or even takes a test or two for me if I really hate something, but I do the same for him with physics, so it's okay.

[What's one subject? Especially when neither of those classes are for their career.]
maximoff_girl: (Smile)

[personal profile] maximoff_girl 2014-01-20 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll-- come by your place sometime later? Or-- what works for you? [It is! Wanda believes she shall be the best dressed person at the club now. ]

[personal profile] fashionably_strong 2014-01-20 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure! How about I give you your first flying lesson after I take your measurements? We'll have a snack and some ginseng tea so you'll have lots of energy.

It's a good method to use, and that's what you want if you're going to deal with having your stuff mass produced. Making sure it's easy to alter.

No no no, it's the
clowns
that do the jokes in-a the circus.

[A beat. Stefano glances around for a brief second before leaning in.]

But
, I am a circus animal.

[Sooner or later, the twins will pass themselves off as each other. It's just what they do. Sometimes without even really meaning to. Mostly because they both answer to each name. It saves time.]

That's what brothers do -- help each other out.

You seem the type to blow up stuff and then pose sort of fellow.

[He knows all about it]

Yes, I shall send appropriate homage to your cult.

If he's helped you out and accepted your help, then I'd say "friend" is the right word.

[She smiles fondly.]

I grew up with Dad's generosity. He put up with a lot for my sake when I was little.

[Go on, Spock. Imagine Vegeta at a little girl's tea party with her dolls and stuffed animals.]

Well...I've never tried before, but my friend Hikaru is going to help me learn how to design specific to people's measurements... I can definitely try.

It is only logical to care for one's family. However, it is good to know that Prince Vegeta does indeed have the capacity to love. [Said with no small amount of humour, for a Vulcan. Spock was absolutely tickled, and quite enchanted by the fact that Mr. Surly could have such a kind daughter.]

You did a very good job with the sweater. I am certain your father appreciates it.
