Make It Fashion- Tuesday- 1st period

[gobrookeyourself]

When the students got to the classroom today, Brooke was already laying out a small selection of patterns to choose from.

"Hey, guys. I don't know that there's a huge need for a lecture or anything, but today you're going to make a simple shirt," she told them. "You can pick whichever one you want, use whatever fabric you want. So take the class period and see what you can do, I'm around if you need help."

Talk to each other why you do it, why don't you?

Prompto was definitely going for just a simple t-shirt design with this one, especially since, you know, this was all fairly new to him and there was no need to go and complicate things, even if his trip home over the weekend did put him into focus a little better.

The real tough part, then, was going to be picking which material to use, because he wanted to kind of go with the really pretty blue that kind of matched his eyes, but the practical side of him that'd just gotten back from Insomnia was thinking black, black, black...

...eh, he'd have more than enough black in his life in the future. He was totally going blue!

Mae went with a men's t-shirt. It was nice and basic, without the low cut neckline or froofy bits the women's patterns all seemed to come with.

And it wasn't like she had much in the way of boobs to worry about fitting it over.

She selected a couple of her jersey fabrics to use, doing a contrasting sleeve thing, to keep it from being too basic. It still seemed like it needed a logo, though. But what logo?

"Yo, Mae! Head's up!"

At some point when neither of them seemed too invested in the demanding intricacies of their basic-ass t-shirts, Prompto called out to Mae, and flung something toward her, in what he felt was an impressive little underhanded, behind-the-back toss. And that something was a small plastic package with Japanese strange writing on it, with two snack cakes nestled inside, square and white with layers of sweet red cake, two slashes for eyes and a round nose almost like a face decorating the top.

She said she wanted snacks, right? Well, then, she was gonna get snacks. Weird (and, if you asked Prompto, very cool) Insomnian snacks fresh from his trip back home this weekend, too.

"Woah, this cake has a face on it."

Mae had maybe forgotten about trying to extort snack food from Prompto.

Re: Make a shirt

Was it even really extortion if Prompto totally already knew where the shop was, Mae, because how many abandoned shops were there even on the island, and he just mostly liked getting people stuff in an effort to win over affection because he felt he didn't have a single leg to stand on in terms of personality and charm?

"It's a Moogle," he offered, by way of totally helpful explanation

Re: Make a shirt

[thishouseishaunted]

"Ohhh," Mae said. "A moogle."

She had no idea what a moogle was.

Re: Make a shirt

[hashtag_chocobro]

Yeah, Prompto could kind of guess that by the tone. And it wasn't surprising, considering how no one around here except Zack even seemed to know about chocobos.

"They're these creatures from my world," he expanded the premise for her a little more. "Real cute and dopey looking guys, so you can bet they slap their faces on a ton of merch. But I've also got some gyshal chips, too, if you're weird about eating faces, but, trust me, the moogle mousse is way better."

Re: Make a shirt

[thishouseishaunted]

"I can eat faces," Mae said, slightly defensively. "What's a gyshal chip?"

Re: Make a shirt

[hashtag_chocobro]

And, sure enough, Prompto had that one covered, too, snagging the bag of chips from his own bag and tossing it over, the same way, but with his other hand, which meant it wasn't quite as smooth and totally impressive as the first time around.

"Bam," he said. "Now you've got sweet and savory."

And, honestly, it was probably better that he didn't have too much of that junk lying around at arm's reach anyway.

Re: Make a shirt

Mae examined the chip bag.

She still didn't know, like, what the things were made of.

"Huh," she said. "Thanks."

Re: Make a shirt

[hashtag_chocobro]

Well, Prompto definitely wasn't about to tell her they were made from the same stuff that they used to feed giant birds.

They were good! That's all that mattered!

And so Prompto nodded, preening maybe a little as he felt he'd successfully met his almost entirely self-imposed duties as snack provider. "You're welcome."

Re: Make a shirt

[thishouseishaunted]

"You carry sweet and savory snacks around on the regular?"

Re: Make a shirt

[hashtag_chocobro]

Prompto wasn't entirely sure what the best answer to that would be, because he could think of a few ways some of them might be interpreted, but honesty was probably the best policy in cases like that, right?

"Not really," he admitted. "You just got lucky this time, I guess."

Except, well, not really luck when he'd pretty much brought them specifically to throw snacks at her.

Re: Make a shirt

[thishouseishaunted]

"Cool," Mae said. "I don't really get lucky that often."

Euphemistically, because she was fifteen and still figuring out her variety of queer. And, well. She was a black cat.
