Fashion, Etc. Etc. Ad Naseum!

The Danger Shop was set up like a runway in Milan. There were lights! There was noise! There were stick figures with big poofy lips complaining as their hair was put up into ridiculous coifs backstage with the students!

"Hello, darlings," Edna said, wheeling the rack of costumes (save one, naturally) into the room. "You have all proven to be...mostly adequate...these last few weeks in terms of creativity and not being blown up. Today you will demonstrate the lines and flow of my beautiful costumes!" Her hands flew up over her head.

"...which you also helped to design, et cetera, et cetera," she finally added. "Get changed, listen for the music and then strut, darlings! Try not to trip over things and end up on Youtube." She pointed at Shilo. "And you. You are very lucky not to be shot full of lasers yesterday. Detention for breaking into my workshop!"

With that she disappeared through the curtain to join the audience.

So there was a little less armor than in the original design because of some madness about the properties of spandex and blah blah.

And Arthur wasn't going to glower. Much. He was just going to look disdainful and fairly aristocratic as he strutted (with only an edge of stomp) across the runway.

At the very least, he would make this madness look good. Then he would possibly go yell at Edna for a few more hours. It seemed theraputic to take that up as a habit.

Karla made sure to laugh as loudly as possible as as Arthur stomped strutted by. "Very dignified, Prince!" she called sweetly.

If Merlin said anything, she'd explain this wasn't starting anything. It was simply her return volley for certain comments on the radio.

And this was Arthur, spiting her by failing to look her way once, and putting just a little extra dignity in the lift of his chin and the line of his shoulders as he began his return-strut.

Karla didn't need acknowledgement. She saw the chin-lift and counted it as a win.

The wolf-whistle as he turned and walked backwards was a classy touch.

Oh, please, it could be a chin lift for any reason at all.

The fact that she actually bothered to care about him enough to show up to mock him, however, eventually translated into an influx of smug (he always found a way to be smug) and he actually wound up shooting a random set of fake celebrities a look that made them beam back at him on the way back.

Nobody put Arthur Pendragon in a corner. Bitches.
