narcissus game: turquoise

[dramatispersonae]

[ Hello, team! You are in a giant closet. On one side, there is a bright green wall stacked with belts, shoes, jewelry, hats, blah blah blah it’s an accessories wall. (Absolutely no weapons, though.) In the center of the room are endless racks of clothes. They come in all colors and all styles, but there are an awful lot in your team’s color. If you dig through the jumble, there’s also sewing machines and needles and whatever you’d need to sew by yourself if you felt like it.

Have fun redesigning the Aather uniform! ]

Yeah, these are kind of plain. But what I'd really like? Cargo pants. Pockets.

[has a very badly sewn cargo pocket on his own pants, filled with stuff]

[skywards]

I think I've got pants like that back home. They're pretty practical.

[unionoftheheart]

Yeah, I remember wearing something like it. They're awesome. I could carry around tons of stuff and still fight.

[skywards]

Being able to fight in them is definitely important.

[unionoftheheart]

Definitely. So cargo pants and some sort of awesome jacket?

[skywards]

Definitely. Like . . . a leather jacket? That's the one I remember in my memories. For my other team.

[unionoftheheart]

Mm, that sounds really cool. And tough. Won't get torn up easily.

[skywards]

It was pretty comfortable, too. We just wore regular t-shirts underneath - well, most of us.

[unionoftheheart]

[tugs at his uniform shirt] Something like this? It's actually really nice to have a plain shirt under everything, I think, but that's mostly because I keep tearing up my shirts for bandages and stuff when I have nothing else on hand.

[skywards]

Yeah, like that. . . . I don't think we used it for something like that, but that's handy.

[unionoftheheart]

So cargo pants, leather jacket, t-shirt...how about shoes that don't fall off?

[skywards]

Sneakers!

[unionoftheheart]

Sneakers!

[dormancy]

[what is this word that i keep hearing, t-shirt, what in the hell is a t-shirt]

Something with a collar, please. And boots should serve.

[skywards]

Boots are a pain, though. . . . a shirt with a collar? Like a dress shirt?

[dormancy]

They protect. I'm not fond of them, either.

Something, so you can wear a tie. It doesn't have to be a dress shirt.

[skywards]

That's all they do, though. And they're heavy - sneakers are lighter and easier to run in.

. . . tie . . .

[dormancy]

Show me one.

To match the girl's uniform.

[skywards]

[grabs some sneakers out of the closet, tosses him one]

I dunno, ties are a pain . . .

[dormancy]

[catching . . . idgi] It is lighter, but it doesn't protect against the foliage.

You could wear it loose. It'd match . . . Everything else. [gesturing at leather jacket, what]

[unionoftheheart]

But boots are harder to climb and run in. Better for some other stuff I guess, but they'd really weigh me down...

[dormancy]

It'd be better to have a choice, but most aren't able to fly, so you should defer to them, don't you think?

[unionoftheheart]

[puzzled] I can't fly. I mean, I can glide, but that's magic, weight doesn't make that much of a difference. I meant in general.

[dormancy]

If it's just for the game, I suppose.

[unionoftheheart]

Yeah, just for the game. If boots were part of the real uniform, I'd probably quest for sneakers. [considers] I should quest for sneakers anyway, come to think of it.
