"Today we'll do something slightly less physical," Anakin announced through his bullhorn, "though really, if you think about it, it could get a little physical."

That boded well.

"This week, teams do not get t-shirts--" Things were looking up! "--because you may use the fabric from them--and from all the other shirts and socks--to create fashion!"

And no one knew fashion like a guy who'd been wearing a robe for the better part of 40 years.

Beaker meeped next to him. "Right," Anakin added because this part was important. "Fashion for gremlins! It will be entertaining. Your gremlin will need something to cover their body as well as some sort of hat! You will work in teams of four! Try not to get bitten!"

He waved them towards tables full of moddable materials: fabric, lace, twine, buttons, zippers, old macramé gremlin outfits...

"I like it," Lydia agreed, also underestimating how hard that might be. (But also: what was a veil without accompanying gloves? Tisarwat had a point.) "Maybe a nice little cape to bring the whole thing together?"

"Oh, does anyone know how to make gloves?"

Belle certainly did not. A cape seemed simpler at least.

"And will it wear them?"

"Capes are très chic," Tahani said, skipping the part about knowing how to make any of this. "And I know loads of designers. My sister does design. It cannot be that difficult."

Tisarwat's thoughtful frown deepened a little, because, even with her unsubstantial house, even she had never had to stoop so low as to mend her own gloves, much less make them, so that detail was starting to be a little worrisome, but, hopefully, maybe her other teammates might be more resourceful there.

"A cape," she decided, "sounds like a," very easy, "great idea. I might have some braiding skills that could be used?"

Because while she'd never had to mend her own gloves, she was still definitely from a house that would requently have to do their own hair.

Much to her utter embarrassment.
