Little Costume Shop 4
Date of Scene: 22 February 2020
Location: Little Costume Shop, Flatbush
Synopsis: Pixie is on the hunt for a costume for ComicCon!
Cast of Characters: Red, Pixie




Red has posed:
There's a costume shop close to mutant town, just one short block and two corners away. It has a big lettering on the window, a neon sign tells it is open. And while the small front seems deserted, there is certainly somebody there, the buzz of a dremel comng from the workshop.

Pixie has posed:
To be fair, costume shops are hard to find, and with comic con fast approaching, Megs was still uncertain about what to dress up as, honestly being a fairy was getting old. Maybe she could do something more..Original? Anyhoo, that's the short story of how she ended up here! And she steps inside, peeking this way and that. At least her wings are hidden behind her white jacket, though her bright pink hair is hard to hide, offset by her pale green pants. Yeah she's a sore thumb either way.

Red has posed:
The door above starts a tune as Pixie enters. Some almost aloof sounds before a smokey voice starts to sing. "I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream I know you, that look in your eyes is so familiar a gleam." Well, That's the Maleficent theme. The dremel sound from the back stopped somewhere during the first words and moments later the door to the workshop opens and Alice steps out. A thigh length pleated-skirt is combined with almost incredible - no, frankly impossible - thigh high boots and a white blouse. A sticker on the left says "Hello, my name is Alice", the last word handwritten in a flourished italic. "Hey there, what can I do for yea?"

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn ooohs and pauses, twirling around as she tries to figure out the source of the music. "So Cool!" And then a store clerk appears in a super cool outfit and she smiles, "Hi! Wicked place! Umm, just looking for a costume for comic con, something a little edgy and badass maybe?"

Red has posed:
"Edgy and Badass? What movies did you think of? Or Manga or comic? Or what RPG you play? I mean, San Diego ComicCon is like, the Nirvana and all, and 5 months is kinda short notice for some costumes. Or rather still in time. So what you look for specifically?" Alice quips, pulling out some paper from underneath the counter, then hovering with the hands over some tick folders. "Yea, would really help to know what you look for.

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn uummms, "Well I totally love manga! I'm all o er magical girl anime, like...Ooooh Madonna Magica's Devil Homura was really badass..Or..Umm Shugo Chara's Utau Hoshina as Dark Jewel, Orr...Umm..Ooooh RWBY's Cinder is pretty badass, I loved her season 1 dress!" she grins, Soo many choices, "Edda from Final Fantasy 8 was also super cool.."

Red has posed:
Alice chuckles as she pulls out a pair of binders and lets the three inch folders audibly fall onto the counter, the spines of them reading the Genre inside. "Well, you can have a look at what we have in stock, or you might order something made only for you. Like, your very own one."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn oohs, grabs the binder, peeking at all the pretty pictures. "Ooooooooh Descendants are Mega cool tooo, I wouldn't even need a wig for Mal's cotillion gown, you know, after she turns into a dragon?" she points,"Do you have that one?" probably costs a ton though."Or something similar?"

Red has posed:
"You mean the Leather-jacket style? Gimmie a moment... There!" Alice answers as she searches the right page and shows to some costumes belonging to that franchise. "That'd be the Descandents 2 look. Yea, I guess we could throw that one together. Not even the worst, pricewise. I mean, compared to the Power Armor in the window most cosplays are cheap."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn giggles, "Yeah, with the purple jacket and the dyed shirt. So cool! Just need to get some other peeps to dress up as Evie, Jay and Carlos...Ooooh this is sooo awesome!" she giggles excitedly, "Soo do I need to order ahead or do ya have any if that stuff here?"

Red has posed:
"Well, if you wanna make sure it's there, preordering is a very good idea. And if you want to keep it and all, you could order it and buy it in time, have it made right for yea body." Alice notes, chuckling a moment. "I could calculate the price for a rental or a custom."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn hmms and nods, "Cool, Okay, But is there anything I can try on now? Just to see what would look good on me?" she smiles, "Wow, this place is sooo cool.." she peers around at all the stuff, "I mean it's almost as fun to try out on stuff as to buy stuff! I wonder how long you e been around? I've never noticed this place before.."

Red has posed:
"Well, it's small, but I can get some stuff from the back. What's yea dress size nd what you look for? I mean, what should I get yea? Stuff we have in stock has a number... like that one," she explains, pointing to a small indicator in the corner of a page. "Then I can look that up in the system. Well, it's a silly old system, but it works."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn hmms, "I'm usually a 6I think." she nods and smiles, "Yeah anything would be cool. And of course different brands fit differently."

Red has posed:
Alice nods with a little chuckle. "Though sewing of customs is done in house. So a 6 and these costumes? Let me look..." A couple moments she hammers onto the KEyboard of the old PC to get a database entry lookup to see if the stuff was in or out for the carnival. Because it was pretty much Carnival season end. "Just those or looking for something else too?"

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn oohs, "Jyst those, But I'd absolutely loooove a red heart shaped bag like the one Evie has! Do you have anything like that here today?" she's super eager to take something home Today!

Red has posed:
Alice checks the system for the items. "The system says it is in, so let me take a look if I can find it in the storage. Just give me a couple minutes, ok?"

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn beams, "Okay! I'll wait right here then ." and she waits patiently, eager to buy a super cute Evie bag. Cuz why not?
