[ As far as new faces go, Betsy's happens to look about as unbothered as anyone possibly could. She's sipping a cup of tea and any glimpses of the room probably make it apparent that she's in her assigned housing. ]

I was given a recommendation by a man named Watts that there was a tailor here of highly praise worthy skill. With how much he talked them up, I have some high expectations. [ She already had high expectations for the quality of clothing. ] He gave me directions to the location, but I'm more used to making appointments for things like that. It seemed more polite to try to make a first contact through this since. Less of a chance for us to waste each other's time. [ And it's definitely not an attempt to fish for information about people here and how well they know each other and get along. Definitely not. ]

Fair warning, I'm particular about what I'm looking for.

"I see," she looked over his example that he was showing with scrutiny and then shrugged. "I'll keep them in mind." It seemed more promising than trying to find something premade in this place. Then again she hadn't exactly seen much of this place.

"That makes things easier," she said with a quirk of her lips. At least she hoped it'd make things easier, nothing in his tone or body language gave her any indication he minded mutants. "What can you tell me about the ones you met?" Who else had been here? None of her direct team was here, that had been one of the first things she'd checked for upon arriving here, but that didn't stop her from being curious about who he'd known.


"I did, but I'm not sure how much of that I actually believe." There was absolutely no reason to believe anything they'd been told was the truth. It sounded like some sort of canned speech from people who wanted them to believe something specific. She listened carefully and patiently to his explanation of the first world he'd been in and shook her head. "It sounds like neither of these goals made much sense. At least I always understood my job in other realities, even if I didn't know when I might be able to leave. I appreciate having more concrete goals to work towards."

Oh now that sounds a lovely challenge. It will be a bit more expensive, as those colors are costly. But I will happily start putting things aside to review.

[serendipitously]

Understandable. I take it you have to mix your own colors here? Things do seem behind the times so to speak.

[unbreakable_king]

Oh, it is not something that we do at the shop. We buy the fabrics and work them. We aren't THAT behind int he times.

[serendipitously]

Small favors I guess.

[unbreakable_king]

Sometimes these are all we get.

[serendipitously]

Too true. It's usually important to try to appreciate those small things.

[unbreakable_king]

It is the small joys which serve to create the large ones. Each little thing building into something new.

[serendipitously]

That's a very poetic sentiment.

[unbreakable_king]

What can I say? I like pretty things.

[serendipitously]

I can't blame you. I used to model when my life was less complicated, so I grew fond of the prettier things in life.

[unbreakable_king]

I had a family that ensured I'd always be dressed nicely.

[Rhy didn't want to talk about having been a king. He didn't want the burden of being expected to do more than live the life of a happy crafter.]

[serendipitously]

[ She chuckled. ] Did they do it all for you then?

[unbreakable_king]

Who? My family? Of course they bought nice clothes for me?

[he is very confused.]
