Fashion! Releasing Your Inner Superhero, etc. [Thursday, May 21, 1st period]

[nocapesomg.livejournal.com]

"Today we will begin the most important part of your costumes!" Edna announced as she wheeled in a hanging rack full of spandex body suits. Oh, you lucky people, you. (Don't ask how that last one snuck in there. It had been a Very Terrible Costume Concept.) "Measurements!"

She ignored any horrified looks or attempts to hide under tables. "Ms. Davis, my assistant," she nodded at Brooke, "and I will be measuring you so that the costumes you create for yourselves will fit! While you are waiting, come up with two preliminary concepts for your ensemble--include your logo from last week on one of them--and then ask a fellow student to critique!"

She made shooing motions. "Go! Scatter! Create!" She pointed at one student at random. "Except you. You get to wear Spandex first, darling."

Create!

Either before or after your trauma, darlings. Chat amongst yourselves.

Arthur was not going to create anything. He was going to stare at the spandex in morbid fascination. And, quite possibly, bitch complain all over it.

"It's the traditional clothing of our people," Jenny told him. "Posthumans, I mean, not Brits. So actually my people."

She was probably confusing him.

Re: Create!

[bitchprince]

"...Post. Humans."

Arthur looked up at her as if he expected her to say also, I'm a faerie while she was at it.

Re: Create!

[ashockingbitch]

"As in 'what comes after humans,' yes. It's not accurate, but," she shrugged. "I didn't name us. Or decide we were going to wear spandex In fact, I voted a strong anti-spandex ticket."

"That may be a show of sense," Arthur granted her, deciding to do the sane thing and categorize that with everything else insane he'd been hearing around here. "Is it even possible to breathe in that?"

Re: Create!

[ashockingbitch]

"It's stretchy," Jenny told him. "So, yes. Rips easy, though. Or maybe that's just Apollo."

Francine considered the feasibility of just burying her face in a pile of stretchy fabric for an hour so she could pretend to not notice Arthur was there, but in a surprisingly non-chickenshit move for her, she didn't. Instead she glanced at him, sighed, and walked over, despite the stupid flush that she'd rather be burying in spandex.

Because, damn it, there had to be something that was easy to fix in this whole mess, didn't there? For certain terrifying values of 'easy.'

"Arthur?"

Re: Create!

[bitchprince]

Arthur looked up. There may have been an overly idle quality to his returning, "Francine."

Re: Create!

[thatsamilkshake]

She took a deep breath and squared her shoulders -- which probably didn't help with the professional image she was trying to convince herself she projected -- then stuck out her hand. In business merger position, not lead me to the dancefloor.

"Never happened?" It was an offer, though it might have sounded like a question.

Re: Create!

[bitchprince]

That explained the last few scraps of Katina's mood all right. Arthur would like to return to being dense enough not to know any of this. "You and I were under a spell," he said, which wasn't quite never happened; the implications somewhat the same, but just off by half an inch.

Dinah's trying to avoid the trauma as loooong as possible. Oh yes. She's got her necklace (http://pics.livejournal.com/blondecanary/pic/00007s8t) from Barbara with the logo/symbol/whatever that she wants to use, and she's paging through various silly (http://pics.livejournal.com/blondecanary/pic/0000qxa9/s320x320) costume (http://pics.livejournal.com/blondecanary/pic/0000rwzw) ideas (http://pics.livejournal.com/blondecanary/pic/0000p3c9/s320x320) while she waits for her turn to be tortured.

Fiona looked over at Dinah's, hoping to see if her ideas were anything like anyone elses.

"Those look nice," she said.

Re: Create!

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"You think?" Dinah gave her a bright smile, biting her lip in consideration. "I kind of cheated, a little. I've seen a uniform like these two," she pointed to the fishnetted ones, "before." She gave Fiona a grin. "How've you been since Tuesday and the Reserves?"

Re: Create!

[cutsthestrings.livejournal.com]

The little grin should say something.

"Good. What about you?"

Re: Create!

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Good! I'm loving Criminal Justice so much. And the teeny moose today are just way too cute," Dinah said, stretching out her arms. She grinned. "What's put the smile on your face?"

Re: Create!

[cutsthestrings.livejournal.com]

All of Fiona's designs just looked like sports clothes. She was thinking function over fashion.

Shilo was praying to any deities who would listen that she would survive today's class relatively unscathed.

And was digging through her bookbag for her new version of her logo. "Come on, where are you..."

Re: Create!

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

With Merlin's request that she look out for his little Sib in mind, and being pretty sure she had the right girl, Dinah sat down next to Shilo, and asked, "Did you lose your superheroic symbol?"

Re: Create!

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

"My newest version of it, yes," Shilo muttered, attention entirely dedicated to the interior of her bag. "I think I left it in my cabin."

A moment passed. Then Shilo looked up at her. "I haven't met you yet."

Re: Create!

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Nope! Hi," Dinah responded with a small wave of greeting and a smile. "I'm Dinah. I'm a friend of Merlin's. You're Shilo, right?"

Re: Create!

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

"Yes," Shilo said with a nod. "It's nice to meet you, Dinah."

Emma still didn't have a logo, but she did doodle out a few designs; both practical and slightly more scandalous.

Re: Create!

[wannabehunter]

Jo quickly sketched out a couple of outfits, they looked strangely similar and oddly like normal clothes.

Re: Create!

Jenny was aware that rolling into battle in a white suit was pretty nineties. It was time for a change. She agreed with Edna on the 'possibly extremely short' count. Unfortunately, rolling into battle in a Union Jack minidress was pretty sixties.

Maybe something in silver?

Her attempts at design were pretty bad, as the girl hadn't an artistic bone in her body.
