Again, the class met in a normal classroom. There were sketchpads and colored pencils at each desk, as they'd be necessary for the day's activity.

"Right, right," he said, very excited for the day, it seemed. "Now that we've established that you all need little people to do your bidding, now it's time to come up with their uniform. Helmets that obscure their ugly faces? Hats with gigantic plumes? Spandex and domino masks? It's all really down to making sure that no matter what, they never are quite as fashionable as you. After all, you are the main event, they are the ones who, at any time, could be filling a coffin a they've thwarted an assassination attempt by valiantly taking the bullet. Possibly forcibly. But I digress."

"As a pirate captain, I did not dictate a uniform so much as the profession had its own very particular motif. I, of course, was the grandest of all, with the brightest coat and the largest hat. None had as fine of clothes as I, and if they dared to try, I'd gut them for their cheek."

There was a brief break as he chuckled.

"But now, I want to see what you all think is the best idea for your future underlings. So, chop chop, get to drawing, I'll come around and critique you all individually. And do feel free to talk it over with your neighbors. Don't want to have henchmen that might accidentally look just like your neighboring megalomaniac's, do you!"

Another laugh.

"Well now, get to it!"

The First Circle didn't usually wear outfits as such, but Karla was willing to give it a go anyway.

Let's see, blue and silver obviously. And not spandex, as Warren would kill her. But, hmm, leather pants? That had possibilities.

Hook peered over her shoulder to take a look.

"Very regal coloring. Purple not to your liking, I take it? Or are these the colors of your land?"

"Glacia's colors," Karla said, nodding. Let's see, the males' shirts should be fitted in case they had to fight... "We don't really go in for the trappings of royalty in this world much, either. No ermine, no purple, no fancy titles."

Just Protocol.

"Oh, Queen isn't fancy enough, is it?" Hook said with a self satisfied chuckle.

"Yeah, but nobody calls me that," Karla said, giving a ghost of a laugh. "That would just be weird."

Oooh, dagger boots, like she had. Yep, those were getting drawn right now.

"Lady, Lord, and Prince. Those are the titles we recognize. We like to keep things simple."

Except for how Protocol was never, ever simple. You know, ignoring that.

"I see that the lady will require strict physical fitness requirements," Hook remarked. "Or else some barrel-chested fellows will look awfully odd in that outfit."

"If my Master of the Guard is anything like some of the others I have met over the years, they shouldn't have a problem," Karla said. Oooh, there should be some kind of identifying mark for her inner triangle. Hmmm, what should it be. "He'll have them up doing drills before breakfast."

Though, she supposed that she could let out the pants a little. Maybe.

"Ah, if only pirating could have such stringent requirements of physical aptitude," Hook said. "Well then, good work, good work. Very particular. Very keen."
