SEMI-OPEN | YOU NEED TO BE DECENT

[fortuneglass]

WHO: CARLY, and the PERFORMERS
WHEN: BACKDATED: S1:DAY46
WHERE: Tailoring Tent (also Radio)
WHAT: Y'ALL NEED COSTUMES

[RADIO: PUBLIC CHANNEL]

Okay everyone! An announcement for anyone performing!

We all look pretty different now, or at least, I think we do, which means we need to focus on what's really important!

Or at least sort of important, I guess you could perform with nothing on bu- BUT YOU REALLY SHOULDN'T!!!

Anyway, you need to get refitted! All of you, everyone who needs a costume for when the show starts, as soon as you can!

I'll be at the Tailor's Tent-I even got fabric ready!

[ACTION]

[Carly isn't kidding. She's waiting, and she's waiting with a MOUNTAIN of fabric, her jellyfish self looking rather like a curious black blob in a sea of colour.

The minute a performer comes in, she swoops in breathlessly, possibly with relief.] Good, you're here..!! Over here now, this way-I can't even use the dummies any more, there's nothing I can really use to represent fins....

[It might be best to get a word in sooner rather than later-otherwise, your costume might be a little far from what you're after!]

Comments

[destiny_key]

Haha, yeah, we... kinda don't have feet.

[He's moved over to a machine and oh gosh that's a lot of things. Well, it can't be harder than driving a gummi ship, right?]

[fortuneglass]

Yup. I don't even have a fin thing, just all of this stuff...anyway.

We're just going to need...this setting, [she demonstrates, clicking a few bits on the machine.] So from here, you just hit the button and start pushing fabric through~!

[destiny_key]

[Sora watches her intently as she adjusts the machine for him, and then the test fabric she hands him. It seems pretty complicated, but he can totally handle it!

Maybe.

He examines the machine again, and then, slowly, turns on the machine and pushes it through. It takes a few tries, but he ends up with a piece of fabric with a stitch in it. The stitch is uneven and makes a wobbly snake trail, but it's... mostly straight? And he didn't sew his fingers to the fabric, so that's a plus.

He holds it up to Carly, a little embarrassed, but mostly proud that he managed that much.]

[fortuneglass]

Hmmmm.... [Well, it is kinda wobbly...but it's a start!] Hmm! Here, [She decides, placing her hands over his.] Try it like this! You have to put a bit of force behind it, otherwise the machine ends up deciding everything for you!

[destiny_key]

Ah, okay!

[He goes slightly red from embarrassment when her hands go over his, but it's fine. Without her help, he'd probably keep messing up.

Together, they push the fabric through the machine, and slowly Sora starts to get the hang of it. By the end, he's going by himself, and this time the stitch is straight and even.]

[insidescoop]

Alright..! Alright, we're getting things better! [It's a thrilling feeling when she can get her hands away-he's getting better, and he's learning fast! A natural, truly!

With wide eyes, she thus grabs a sheet of fabric and a few decorations.] Alright-! Next step then, we see if you can sew these on. Just stitch a line right over them, and then do that again for extra strength!

[destiny_key]

[Okay wow, that's a little overwhelming. He can barely sew a straight line, and now he's sewing decorations?

Well, he can try at least.

He nods at Carly, then examines the decorations before slowly beginning to stitch them.]

[fortuneglass]

[Well, the fact is, sewing a straight line is all he needs to do for this, so it works well. Carly oversees the first set- a simple string of tassels-and waits.]
