whole seattle log

[18:22] * Cazador stirs in her bed at home, the remnants of last night's violence-fest (and accompanying drinking binge) still kicking around in her head. Her commlink says "5:45", but she knows that nothing those racist fucks in the Iron Crosses can do to her would be worse than being a minute late to Hernandez's on training day.
[18:25] <Odin_> By the time you stumble into the training room (Jap's call it a Dojo. Does Hernandez look like a Jap? No, that's why it's a training room, not a dojo. Even though the padded mats are there, along with a full length mirror along the side. Training room.) still shaking off the hangover, Hernandez is staring at the clock. "You're almost late."
[18:25] <Cazador> "When I tried to pull the 'almost' card starting out on target shooting, you told me almost don't mean a damn thing."
[18:25] * Cazador rubs the sleep out of her eyes.
[18:26] <Odin_> "I'm sorry, are we at the range right now?"
[18:27] <Cazador> "No, profesor."
[18:29] <Odin_> "So almost, like hand grenades, is close enough. Now then, where are your weapons?"
[18:30] * Cazador pulls them out of their holsters, offering them to him grip-first.
[18:31] <Odin_> He takes one, ejects the mag and racks the slide, before inserting a magazine wrapped in yellow duct tape. This process is repeated with the other predator.
[18:32] <Odin_> They are then passed over to you, grip first.
[18:32] * Cazador takes them and holds on to them, making sure the muzzle is pointed at the floor.
[18:32] <Odin_> Hernandez takes a step back, and places his hands over his double shoulder holsters. "Draw when ready" he states.
[18:33] * Cazador nods, putting the guns back into the holsters, before the right moment to draw.
[18:54] <Odin_> Annnnnd directly into the second shot! You're tough enough to shrug off most of it, but your fingertips tingle with residual current!
[18:57] * Cazador steadies, making a short dash forward and catching the old man off guard with a shot to the leg. Her second round goes wide though, nailing one of the mirrors.
[19:03] <Odin_> Stepping into melee combat he bashes towards Cazador's head with the hardened butt of his gun, landing a devastating blow that brings stars to the young orcs eyes. The second swipe is only barely dodged by Cazador.
[19:05] * Cazador staggers, but ducks around him and presses the barrels of both of her pistols into his sides, firing.
[19:07] <Odin_> He shakes standing up as two slugs empty their batteries into him. He slowly collapses backwards, slightly smoking from the contact points. A few moments later he comes to though...
[19:07] <Odin_> "Good, good! Half hungover and you can still fight! I've taught you well!"
[19:07] * Cazador is still panting, hands on her knees. That pistol butt to the head smarted. "Thanks Profesor."
[19:10] <Odin_> "So! That is the body, it is time for the mind. How has your latest brush with fame been treating you?"
[19:10] <Cazador> "Eh, it's okay. Pays the bills and all."
[19:12] <Odin_> "And that's it?"
[19:13] <Cazador> "I dunno. It's kind of fun tearing up Hollywood, but my coworkers are assholes and elves."
[19:13] <Cazador> "I'm trying pretty hard to not get too caught up in the glamor and shit, don't wanna forget where I came from."
[19:14] <Odin_> "Is the desert that much better than the glitz and glamor?"
[19:15] <Cazador> "The desert is something I understand. I know everybody here, know everybody's mamas, stuff like that. Out there I'm like...I dunno. Another illiterate thug from the barrens. And nobody's let on that that's how they feel yet, but I know it's there."
[19:18] <Odin_> "Well then, we shall see if the "Assholes and elves" change you that much, or if you'll remain an illiterate thug from the barrens."
[19:19] <Cazador> "You just gotta use my words to make me look like a dumbass, don't you."
[19:20] <Odin_> "You call me Profesor, I'm meant to teach you something."
[19:21] * Cazador sits down. "Alright, what would you do in my situation then?"
[19:23] <Odin_> "Hmm. A good question. I'd know that it doesn't last, and enjoy what little time I do have with it, rather than being angry and drinking all the time."
[19:24] <Cazador> "I'll have you know last night was a celebration. I managed to finish my left shoulder's row."
[19:27] <Cazador> "But alright, I'll try. No promises I won't knock the smug off of Chloe's face though."
[19:27] <Odin_> "Ahhh, the crosses. Where the hell do they find that many breeders who think Humanis is too soft?"
[19:27] <Cazador> "Fuck if I know Profesor. Maybe they found like a fucking cloning facility or something."
[19:28] <Odin_> "Maybe indeed. And I'm not sure if the network would love or hate you doing something like that."
[19:28] <Cazador> "It's hard to say with that cokehead producer."
[19:30] <Odin_> "Sounds interesting. Tell me about him."
[19:31] <Cazador> "I have no idea how to talk about him. He's like...a hurricane with a novacoke line on his upper lip. He blows around, shouting and making pronouncements, and then he's gone just as quick."
[19:34] <Odin_> "Hmpgh. Hasn't changed a bit I see."
[19:34] <Cazador> "I...you know him?"
[19:35] <Odin_> "Barely. You're not the first student to come through my firing range and end up as part of his talent. I only met him once, years ago."
[19:35] <Cazador> "I see."
[19:36] <Cazador> "That would explain why he didn't even ask for a demonstration when he hired me."
[19:38] <Odin_> "Hmph. I'll say this, he knows quality when he sees it."
[19:43] <Cazador> "Stop Profesor, you're gonna make me blush." Cazzie says sardonically.
[19:45] <Odin_> "Pah, enough of this. To the firing range! Let's see how you do against a target that isn't right next to you!"
[19:47] <Odin_> He stalks out back, before hitting a button. A number of targets, some moving, all at different ranges, stir to life. Plenty of magazines sit at each stand: You have your choice of ammo.
[19:48] * Cazador pulls out a few mags of regular ammo. No need to get crazy just starting off.
[19:49] <Odin_> "Begin!"
[19:52] * Cazador points her pistols at two different targets, firing simultaneously.
[19:52] * Cazador shifts one to another target while the other remains, firing again. Three targets are dinged.
[19:54] <Odin_> "Hmm. Shoey, yet somewhat effective. Plan on facing a dozen foes alone?"
[19:55] <Cazador> "If that's how many are there."
[19:58] <Odin_> "Bah. Let's try something different...."
[19:59] <Odin_> He fiddles with some buttons and a 10 foot tall, armor plated troll mannequin starts rushing at you. "Quickly student! Stop it!"
[20:16] * Cazador shifts her sights downards, aiming for its mobility.
[20:16] <Odin_> The machine lumbers forwards on quads, rushing towards you!
[20:17] * Cazador kicks the table to knock a mag of ex-ex upright, ejects and cycles the slide on one gun, then slams it down and aims in a fluid motion.
[20:21] * Cazador fires a blast of ex-ex right to the motive system!
[20:23] <Odin_> The shot slams home, exploding right in the middle of some valuable system! The machine slows down, yet is perilously close to overrunning the stand! It's point blank range at this point, hopefully you can take it down with the hole you blew in it's armor plating!
[20:31] * Cazador thinks for a moment, before dashing towards the giant.
[20:36] <Odin_> Moments before it crushes you, it halts, smoke pouring out of it's ruined undercarriage! Seem's you've well and truly smashed it!
[20:36] * Cazador exhales. "Wasn't sure that was gonna actually work."
[20:37] <Odin_> Your profesor is clapping. "Well done, well done. Risky, but you got the job done."
[20:38] * Cazador nods. "Thanks."
[20:40] <Odin_> "Now you need to learn how to repair it. Find my toolbox!"
[20:40] <Odin_> END SCENE
[20:51] <Odin_> AT THE EVO BIOMEDICAL "A BETTER YOU" CLINIC, LOCATED PROMINENTLY IN AN UPSCALE SHOPPING CENTER
[20:52] <Odin_> This place offers an entire makeover. Clothes, makeup, biosculpting, surgery, mild augmentations.....
[20:52] <Odin_> The floor is positively PACKED with juuuuust under the peak of perfection showgirls and showboys eager to show you the wares on display.
[20:53] * Chloe_Ceto looks to the others. She's dressed in simple Jeans and a T-shirt herself, her blue hair hanging down her back. "...really?"
[20:53] * Allie chitters nervously at her two...associends...as they enter and look around. "Ohmigawd you guys I am *so* excited but maybe even more nervous, I never thought I'd be able to afford even coming to a shop like this but now I'm gonna see what's there and--"
[20:53] <Odin_> Jewelry, perfumes, cybereyes, a slimmed down and toned everything...
[20:53] * Quadcore shrugs. "Allie's idea." She looks around biting her lip a bit. "Besides, it's EVO, not Horizon, at least," she mutters darkly. "... I've never willingly gone under the knife before."
[20:54] <Allie> Her excitement is cut off by Chloe's derisive question, and she visibly wilts, ears drooping and tail lowering to almost between her knees.
[20:55] * Chloe_Ceto bites her lip. "Sorry Allie but...why?" She looks more than a bit confused.
[20:55] <Allie> Then she perks back up. "Well...okay, you guys don't have to get anything, I just thought it'd be nice for the support and stuff but you can just...I dunno, look at other stuff or go home or whatever."
[20:55] <Quadcore> "Body image." Quadcore nods, thinking. "When someone's really never had a chance to choose how they look before, and suddenly can..."
[20:56] <Chloe_Ceto> "Right..." Chloe looks down at herself.
[20:56] <Quadcore> "... I should probably keep the albinism for the cameras, I ugess, but..."
[20:57] <Odin_> A gorgeous adonis figure, muscles barely constrained by a tight shirt and haloed by slightly mussed golden hair approaches the little group. He opens his mouth, and perfectly aligned perfect teeth GLEAM at you. "Hello ladies, is there anything I can help you with here?"
[20:57] * Allie swallows hard, staring up at him.
[20:57] <Allie> "...Uh..."
[20:58] * Quadcore looks up and lets out a soft eep.
[20:59] * Chloe_Ceto blushes a bit but says nothing
[21:00] * Allie clears her throat and bravely rallies. "...I dragged my friends in but, like, we're here for me, so...I kinda want a new me, y'know?"
[21:01] <Odin_> He smirks a little. "Don't worry, I get that a LOT. Tell you the truth though, this wasn't all hours at the gym every day, I'm not gonna lie. Sometimes you just need a little help to get where you want to be, and the employee perks get me a great discount on the services around here."
[21:01] <Odin_> "Right, right, I getcha-" he stops, looking right at you, mouth forming a perfectly symmetrical O.
[21:02] <Quadcore> [To: Fomor, Allie - Oh god he's going to be a fan isn't he.]
[21:02] <Odin_> He... squeals. "OH MY GOD YOU'RE ALLIE CAT!"
[21:02] <Allie> She blinks, then blushes *furiously* and backs up half a step. "Uh...yes?"
[21:02] <Odin_> "T-t-then that means you're QUADCORE AND CHLOE!? OH MY GOD! C-Can I get your autographs?"
[21:04] <Odin_> *QUADCORE AND FOMOR!
[21:04] <Quadcore> [Yeeeeep.] "Ah, um, okay... sure."
[21:05] * Allie glances at the other two and bites her lip, then nods. "Okay...I've never had anybody ask that before..."
[21:07] <Odin_> The squealing attracted a couple of other salespeople, a couple of whom are also fans. They don't freak out as bad as the first one though. Still, you have pens pushed into your hands, and gorgeous skin upon which to write. It almost feels like you're desecrating art by writing on them.
[21:08] * Fomor nods "Of course." She's handling it a lot better than the others. Internally she's freaking out though.
[21:08] * Quadcore signs quietly, blushing at all the skin on display.
[21:10] <Allie> Allie's blush doesn't fade as she signs, but by the third or fourth time she puts her show-name down she's getting more into it, smiling and adding flourishes--and going back to the first couple to touch them up a bit more.
[21:10] <Odin_> Finally, happy little fans float away, except for the adonis who started it all. "Ahem, uh, sorry about that. Not really suposed to do things like that, but your show is just SO COOL!"
[21:11] * Fomor keeps up a mask of polite cool. "Thank you very much. It's nice to meet fans."
[21:12] <Allie> "It's fun working on it, too," she adds. "Like, doing all the stuff, and the planning and the thinking and all that, and then bam right into craziness!"
[21:12] <Quadcore> "Yeah." Quadcore blushes. "It's pretty fun. A lot more fun than what I used to do for a living."
[21:14] <Odin_> "Awesome! So it's not like some of those horror stories! And, um.... dunno if I should ask this...."
[21:15] <Allie> She cocks her head to the side, one ear up and one to the side to exaggerate the effect.
[21:15] <Odin_> He blushes, and it triggers some predatory instinct. Right around the point where you want to drag him away for things obscene, is when you realize tailored pheremones are working their magic on you. "Is the action all real like it says?"
[21:16] * Fomor smirks "That would be telling~" She does nod though
[21:16] * Allie nods too.
[21:18] <Allie> "We definitely leave each of those super-duper exhausted~"
[21:18] <Odin_> He nods, breathlessly.
[21:18] * Quadcore chuckles, nodding. "I get my fill of adrenaline, at least."
[21:21] <Odin_> "Coooooooool! Anyway, I'm sure you have a busy schedule, but thanks for indulging a fan! Now is there anything here I can help you with?"
[21:21] * Fomor looks to Allie
[21:22] <Allie> After the display she is much more upbeat. "I'd like to get a couple things done, not sure about my friends but I've been kinda dreaming about this for a few years now so, like..."
[21:22] <Quadcore> "Well, try to sell me, I guess?"
[21:22] <Quadcore> "... Sell me on what you can do for me, that is."
[21:23] * Fomor raises an eyebrow at Quadcore. "I...think I'll be alright." She looks at herself. "But I'm here for support."
[21:24] <Odin_> "All you need to do is take a look around! A whole new you, no matter what that is! Whether it's a whole makeover, just a little change, or anywhere in between, we're committed to helping you be the you you always wanted."
[21:24] * Quadcore blushes. "Ah, well, right, but I'm not sure waht I want."
[21:26] <Allie> "I am! New boobs, for one thing." She gestures to herself. "I mean, like, I'm pretty cute, don't get me wrong, but maybe I wanna step it up from just 'cute,' you know? And maybe some stuff with my nose. Little smaller, straighter, fix the bend from breaking it five years ago...oh, and do you have that uh, that uh...the hair thing? So I can make its color change all the time?"
[21:26] <Odin_> "Hmmm. If you'd step right over to our 3d scanner, we can get a look at all of your features, and begin to craft a personal treatment plan!"
[21:27] <Allie> She throws a wink over her shoulder at the other two, then saunters over to where the salesman leads her.
[21:28] <Odin_> "Oh wow, you're all ready! Lemme find someone to help you out!" He murmors into his comm, and a few moments later a spunky, slightly alternatively body-modded salesgirl shows up.
[21:28] <Odin_> (Sorry, the scanner was for Quadcore)
[21:28] * Quadcore nods, blushing, and head sfor the scanner.
[21:30] * Fomor looks between the pair, not entirely sure where to go.
[21:30] <Odin_> "Hmmm. Well you're a couple pounds over the usual Elf female agegroup you belong to, we can take care of that in a couple minutes. Your skin is a little dry, we have some WONDERFUL spray on ointments, only seconds out of your day, and you'll feel GREAT. You don't seem hot on anything too radical, but we can go up or down a cup size without negatively impacting anything essence or spinal wise, your cheek bones are a little gaunt....
[21:30] * Allie backs away from the scanner and waves to the new girl. [You should stick with your sister and stuff, I'll be okay, and like if I get out first I'll wait kay?]
[21:31] <Odin_> Negative criticism and a barrage of treatments to fix every last one of them continue to flow over Quadcore.
[21:31] <Odin_> Allie: The salesgirl is one of those who got your audience, and she prominently displays it on her arm. "Wowie zowie, I hafta admit, I've never gotten to help out a Changeling before."
[21:32] * Fomor grumps slightly as she listens to all the info.
[21:33] <Allie> She smiles, a little self-deprecatingly, and shrugs. "It's still a little weird being one, y'know, and like sometimes people're just a bit too weirded out, so I dunno, like, maybe this'd help s'more get outta their shells and, like, be okay? I dunno. It's more for me anyway."
[21:34] <Odin_> Allie: "Right on, Sister! So what can we do for you today?"
[21:35] * Quadcore blushes. "Ah, um... Well, I do have some augments already, I'm not too worried about my essence, it's not like i'm Awakened..." She murmurs. "... Is my skin really that dry?"
[21:36] * Allie nods. "Okay, so like, I told the ultra-hunk back there that I pretty much want just a couple easy things. New boobs, maybe touch up my nose, and...that's pretty much what I really want. D'you have any other suggestions?"
[21:37] <Odin_> "Only a little, I'd be far more concerned about the sagging skin around your midsection, it's a natural consequence of being immobile for so long, but easily fixed."
[21:38] <Odin_> Allie: "Wellllll, considering your line of work, perhaps I could interest you in our Sensitive SkinTM upgrade? Really take your perception to another level anytime you're working with hands, skin, flesh... anywhere else you want it applied...?"
[21:38] * Fomor looks very uncomfortable
[21:39] <Allie> She quirks her head to the side again. "Wow, really? I've never heard of that. But it might be really useful for my job, y'know? Probably should get it everywhere, sometimes feeling those air currents move is, like, all that saves you from a bullet, y'know?"
[21:43] <Quadcore> "I'm a Rigger..." She leaves out the part where most of her life was spent in a lab, and a lot of that tied down. "Um. And my complexion and stuff?"
[21:43] <Odin_> Her mouth opens. You know several people who would literally kill for this dental plan. "Oh, I wouldn't know about that! But certainly! We can probably have you in and out in two hours, unless there's anything more radical we can do for you. Perhaps a complete makeover session?"
[21:44] <Odin_> Quadcore: "Oh it's rather fare. Elf metagenetics, I'm so envious. We can remove any and all chance of you ever having acne again though."
[21:44] * Allie is about to agree, but she pauses, some instinct flaring. "...What kind of makeover?"
[21:45] * Quadcore pauses. "I never had acne in the first place... and I meant, um, more, the albinism. I guess I should keep it and all that though... for, um, recognizability." She bites her lip. "I'm justnot sure what I want. I'venever had a chance to do something like this... or even gone under a knife, um, of my own choic ebefore. It's a little overwhelming."
[21:47] <Fomor> "...I think you look nice Quadcore..."
[21:50] * Quadcore nods. "I..." She bites her lip. "I think I look nice, but... I didn't choose how I look. At all. Even my differences from you were engineered, Fomor."
[21:52] * Fomor nods "Most people don't pick how they look..." She gestures herserf. "Still...if you want."
[21:53] <Quadcore> "Yes, but they still have some say over their lives, through exercise or... chances like this." SHe bites her lip, thinking.
[21:54] <Fomor> "...right."
[21:55] <Quadcore> "Even if it's just a tattoo or a piercing or... something. Am I making sense?"
[21:56] <Fomor> "It does, yes." She nods
[21:59] <Quadcore> "So... I'd like to be me."
[22:00] * Fomor nods again and reaches over to ruffle Quadcore's hair. "Alright. Should I do something to? To show...solidarity or something?"
[22:01] <Quadcore> "If you want. I wont' make you." She smiles. "Only you can choose what to do to your own skin. That's just freedom."
[22:01] <Fomor> "That wasn't helping me make up my mind." She smiles
[22:03] <Quadcore> "It wasn't supposed to." She smiles back.
[22:04] * Fomor rolls her eyes "What would I even do? I mean..." She looks down at herself.
[22:05] <Quadcore> "What have you always wanted to do, but never had done? Piercings or tattoos or something like that?"
[22:07] <Fomor> "I've never really thought about it." She bites her lip. "For a long time I wanted to look more...normally elven but I'm trying to not let my worries decide for me. My Sister can go jump in a lake." Chloe looks more Wakfu than Tolkien.
[22:12] * Quadcore nods. "You could go furthur from the 'ideal'."
[22:13] * Fomor raises an eyebrow?
[22:13] <Fomor> *.
[22:14] <Quadcore> "Rebel. If being the ideal is something you don't want, move away from it."
[22:15] <Fomor> "It's not that I mind it...it's just that I don't want my S...don't want anyone to dictate it for me."
[22:19] * Quadcore nods. "Then... alL I can say i sdo waht you want."
[22:21] * Fomor sighs "I think I'll pass on anything for now."
[22:23] <Odin_> "Understandable! And I'm sorry, albinism is a genetic condition. We could darken you up a little, but you'd be just as vulnerable to the sun, and it'd be like a full body tattoo. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but that's something I don't think you want!"
[22:23] <Odin_> "May we still interest you in some of the cosmetics? I'm led to understand that Krimson Typhoon is a VERY popular lip shade among those of your complexion right now."
[22:24] <Quadcore> "Ah, well, sure?" She blushes a bit. "I think... I think Iwill get some work done, honestly." She pauses. "... Do you have anything on special?"
[22:27] <Odin_> His eyes look left and right. "Ok, don't tell my manager because you're not on THE list yet, but you're gonna be there, so if I slide my employee perks card, EVERYTHING here will be 25% off. Gotta keep it on the down low though, you understand?"
[22:28] <Odin_> Allie: "As much or as little as you want! You can pick it out, or choose a style, or my favorite, just let Vanessa use you as a canvas! She's SUCH an artist,"
[22:29] * Quadcore smiles. "That's a great offer, but I wouldn't want you to get in trouble..."
[22:30] <Odin_> "Ah cmon, she won't find out, and if she does, by then you'll be #3 on P2.0, and I can laugh in her face!"
[22:31] * Quadcore nods. "... Okay. YOu know what?" She smiles. "I'm going to put forward some nuyen. And... surprise me."
[22:31] <Allie> "Okay, so like, still just makeup and stuff. Yeah, sure, just...nothing super drastic. And--actually...what other skin treatments do you have?"
[22:32] <Odin_> Quadcore: "To be clear, is biosculpting included in what you want, or are we keeping it purel cosmetic?"
[22:33] <Quadcore> "Within limits. Nothing more damaging than a point-five, total, on the Reyes Essence Scale."
[22:34] <Odin_> Allie: "Wellll, we could put in a little ortho, but to be honest, that would be SUCH a shame, I mean you're already almost flawlessly smooth."
[22:34] <Odin_> Quadcore: "Well alright then! Please step this way, and our patented remote operated surgical units will attend to you right away. Are you allergic to any common analgesics?"
[22:35] <Allie> "Well, you are the professionals, so like, I guess if that sounds good, I'm ready to get going."
[22:35] <Quadcore> "My only allergy is to soy, so...."
[22:35] <Odin_> "Wonderful!"
[22:35] <Odin_> THREE. HOURS. LATER.
[22:37] <Odin_> Quadcore, you look at yourself in the mirror, and are SHOCKED. Your face is still recognizably your own, but... it's so much slimmer, the last traces of baby fat are gone, and you look.... hot. That's the only way to put it.
[22:38] <Odin_> Allie: Every last inch of your skin is tingly, you're sore in the chest, and you're very aware of the position of your nose in your face. That said, one look at a full body mirror later, and you KNOW that it was money well spent. Meo-OW.
[22:38] * Fomor is out in the waiting room, head back on the chair and dozing.
[22:38] * Allie spends a good ten minutes or so just staring...then turning this way and that...and preening...
[22:39] * Quadcore looks at herself, licking her lips a bit and examining every last inch.
[22:40] <Odin_> Satisfied salespeople watch. "Now there may be some sensitivity issues over the next few days, but you'll adjust. And might I say that you are looking F-A-B-ulous!
[22:41] * Allie gushes to them all. "This is EXACTLY what I wanted to see! Like, you people are geniuses! I wish I could have done this sooner ohmigawd I feel GREAT!"
[22:42] <Odin_> "YES! Another success story! Could you say that again, louder, and looking directly at me?"
[22:43] * Allie giggles furiously, obviously completely jazzed, and does exactly as requested--including throwing in her screen name.
[22:44] <Odin_> "Haha, yes! Promotion here I come!"
[22:45] <Allie> She winks. "Good luck~!" Then she skips back out to the waiting room and nudges Fomor awake.
[22:45] * Fomor blinks a few times, slowly waking up. "Huh...wha?"
[22:46] * Allie poses in a cheesecake posture, hips tilted, one hand on her hip, the other behind her head. "What do you think~?"
[22:48] * Fomor blushes. "Stop that..."
[22:50] <Allie> "You like the new look?" She's gained around two cup sizes, now pushing the line between C and D, and the makeover really enhances the lines of her face.
[22:50] <Odin_> Quadcore's figure has also changed. Wheras before she was a slightly pudgy rigger, now she's like some Albino sex-vamp from certain literature. Slap some fangs on her, and dozens of angsty goths would be clamoring around her baring their neck.
[22:51] <Fomor> "It looks good, I guess?" Chloe looks rather embarassed by the whole thing.
[22:51] <Allie> "Eeeee I'm so excited! And really tingly but mostly excited. Probably tingly because I'm excited? C'mon I wanna go clothes-shopping!"
[22:52] <Fomor> "We need Quadcore first..."
[22:53] <Allie> "I know we can bring her too I can't wait to see what she got!"
[23:00] * Quadcore blushes, licking her lips. something to consider if hse likes that look. Maybe. Who knows? After some time getting to know the new her, she... walks out. "Guys!"
[23:00] * Fomor turns...and stares.
[23:00] <Fomor> "...wow."
[23:01] * Quadcore blushes. "I did tell them to surprise me."
[23:02] * Allie spins in place to have a look, and her hands fly to her face. "Holy shit! That's amazing!"
[23:03] * Quadcore blushes harder. "I'm honestly surprised, so..."
[23:03] <Quadcore> "I didn't think I'd come out... quite like this."
[23:03] <Allie> "Yeah but you look amazing! Okay, my turn, how do I look how do I looooook~?"
[23:05] <Fomor> "You both look really good."
[23:05] * Quadcore looks over Allie and blushes. "You look great, honestly! Like a model, something out of a fashion catelogue. I like it."
[23:06] <Allie> "Right?" She's all but jumping in place right now. "Okay, like I just told your sister, time to go shoppiiiing!"
[23:07] <Quadcore> "Shopping, right! I, um, have only a theoretical idea how fashion works, so."
[23:08] <Allie> "I have a good one!"
[23:08] <Fomor> "Oh stars and stones..." She nods, looking nervous. "I'm not sure I need anything..." Says the girl who wears almost nothing but jeans, t-shirts or suits.
[23:09] <Quadcore> "WE'll let Allie guide our way forward?"
[23:09] <Odin_> There are many places to choose from... the only question is, what kind of store do you want?
[23:09] <Allie> "It's not about 'need,' sourpuss, it's about the thrill! Window shopping, looking at outrageous styles, trying on things you'd never be able to afford just to see how it looks and feels--except maybe we CAN afford them now!--and just having fun!"
[23:10] <Fomor> "Fine." She looks at the pair and blushes again.
[23:12] * Quadcore nods slowly. "... You're going to end up convincing me to buy corsets or something like that, aren't you?"
[23:12] <Fomor> "...I'm not sure you need one. Did they take out some of your ribs?"
[23:12] <Allie> "Only if you think they look good. Let's go!"
[23:12] <Quadcore> "I do not believe So." She checks her biomonitor. "No,I still have all my rips."
[23:13] <Allie> Grabbing each of them by a hand, she powers them through several hours' worth of doing exactly as advertised.
[23:13] <Odin_> Not only do you have all your rips, you have MORE. Your abdomen has some actual muscle tone now
