Second Floor Common Room, Wednesday Evening - Sewing Party

Lucrezia wasn't certain how time passing here affected time's passage back home. If the ratio were a simple one-to-one, then today would be her sixteenth birthday. But she had not been gone nearly so long in reality, which meant it seemed false to claim it as such, even if she had perhaps lived the days necessary.

What was required for today was an alternative to the increasingly aggravating costumes the guests had insisted upon. Lucrezia had many old dresses that she did not mind sacrificing to this cause; there simply had to be a way to extend her dress such that it fell to the floor as dresses ought to do. And perhaps some petticoats underneath?

She had enlisted Petra's assistance, and the two had decided that this should be open to any who wished to change their garb -- or, even more simply, to come and spend time and gossip about their odious benefactors.

The sign outside the common room simply read, SEWING PARTY. Snacks and drinks provided, as well as copious amounts of needles and thread -- bring only yourself and, should you like, the atrocity known as your school uniform.

([livejournal.com profile] wasthecuteone modded with permission. Sewing party! All are welcome! Come if you want tweaks to your outfit, or if you just want to hang out.)

"But I can tell them that I have an orthopedic condition!" Kenzi argued. "I need lots of arch support!" And the fact that it was probably thigh-high leather was not her fault!

"And because you have a posturepedic condition, you need to have drafty no-nos? Sheeeah, like anyone's gonna buy THAT!"

"I'll be wearing hose! It won't be that drafty!" Form-fitting and probably pornagraphic, but still within the rules! "Skin will not be showing!"

Hank blinked at her. "...A hose?!?!? Seriously!??! How do you wear a hose?!?"

"Tights! Those kind!" Boys. Seriously. "Candy-cane colors!"

"Ohhhh, okay. 'Cause, like a real hose, that wouldn't work at all, is all I'm sayin'."

he blinked again. "In candy-cane colors? You'll look like some kind of Goth vampire lady of the evening!"

Evil grin. Why yes, Hank. She would.

"You do realize that if this school loses its funding, we are so totally screwed, right?" Hank asked.
