THE SUIT & TIE MEME
Congratulations. If your character is in this meme, it doesn't matter if they're male, female, humanoid or not - if they're tagging in or waiting it out - they're now sporting the classiest of suits and ties. Is there an event? Some bizarre clothing swap? Are you spies, other kinds of professionals? Don't ask. That's for you to answer. Just enjoy the formalwear.

[ the hemming on this suit is completely off, the breast pocket is hideous, the tie's length isn't proper, the buttons, for gods' sake, don't match.

and he can't take it off. this is just as uncomfortable for him as it would be if he were wearing a suit made of living chinchillas. ]

[ ... her school uniform is close enough, whatever. ]

'Misaka would suggest that you get someone to redo that tie for you,' Misaka says, noting only one problematic aspect of your attire.

[ oh god it's NOTICEABLE. You can just see his face go from despair horizon to effortless cringe. ]

No-- I'll do it. It has to be just-- just so. [ He's so meticulous about undoing it that he hardly notices her speech pattern. ] I wonder if everyone here would pitch in some herculean effort to pry this jacket off of me.

'Are you incapable of removing your own clothing?' Misaka wonders about the strange request.

Some sort of strange hex. No matter how hard I pull, the only thing I succeed in is making the jacket even more of a disheveled mess. Heinous.

'Misaka thinks you should begin with undoing the buttons,' Misaka begins to explain. 'If you would like, Misaka can demonstrate for you. My uniform is similar enough.'

You are welcome to try, if you can manage it. They're tightly... locked into the suit somehow. [ He still won't question your speech if you can somehow get this horrible jacket off before he goes postal. ]

[ welp she's like halfway starting on undoing one of the buttons on her jacket before pausing. ]

'Misaka sees. So you already know how to undo a button?' Misaka asks despite the task being very simple. 'Perhaps you put on a suit too small, or you've gotten bigger since putting it on.'

[personal profile] dualpistol 2013-04-07 07:29 am (UTC)(link)
Impossible. I keep exact measurements of myself at all times. It's the suit.

[ He tries again at the button and it just won't go through the little sleeve. He would deem it worthy to ruin this stupid jacket and rip it off, but it's like trying to tear apart canvas with his bear hands. ]

'This is strange, but unfortunate. Misaka hopes that next time you decide to get into a suit, you choose a better constructed one in case you get stuck again.' Misaka advises honestly.

[personal profile] dualpistol 2013-04-07 08:26 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't get into it! It just... appeared after a brief mental lapse! [ He's starting to get agitated with the button, as if he pushes it that much harder, it will suddenly, finally give. ]

'The more you explain, the more unsound of mind you seem,' Misaka says with a sigh. 'Misaka thinks that you should resign to your shoddily dressed fate for now.'

[personal profile] dualpistol 2013-04-08 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
I am not unsound of mind, and I am not settling for wearing this trash!

'Then what will you do?' Misaka asks, but truthfully thinks it is hopeless.

... I will find a stainless steel pair of cutting shears. If they fail to work, I'll take on more... drastic measures.

'Misaka bids you good luck on your endeavor,' Misaka responds with strong curiosity about how this will pan out.

[Crona is in a white suit again, which somehow still doesn't give away a gender one way or the other.

Death's discomfort has been noted, but Crona appears to be trying to outdo him with discomfort levels.]


Um...

[personal profile] dualpistol 2013-04-10 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank goodness, a familiar face--

[ With a completely serious demeanor and zero regard for context. ] Crona, I know you're physically capable. Do you think you could take my jacket off?
mulligrubs: um, what do i do with pantyshots again (nervous)

[personal profile] mulligrubs 2013-04-10 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[WHAT IS THIS KIND OF QUESTION?!

Crona looks supremely unsure, pushing forefingers together and looking down nervously.]


I've never undressed someone else before.

[personal profile] dualpistol 2013-04-10 06:14 pm (UTC)(link)
It's fairly simple. Besides, once the jacket is gone, I can restore some semblance of balance, even if I didn't pick the rest of this outfit.

... and I can't remove it myself. Perhaps I should have made that clear.
mulligrubs: like this? (pic#5999900)

[personal profile] mulligrubs 2013-04-10 06:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[In a way that's most unfair, Crona's suit is perfectly symmetrical. Slightly trembling hands lift to rest lightly on Kid's jacket, before recoiling again as if burned.]

I've never undressed a boy before, I'm not sure I can deal with being a valet right now.

[personal profile] dualpistol 2013-04-10 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He's noticed. And he's jealous. ]

No pressure. I just want to see if the buttons slip out if another person pulls on them. It would be rudely fitting of a hex to make it that I can't do anything about it.
mulligrubs: SEE?? (pic#5999911)

[personal profile] mulligrubs 2013-04-10 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's sad Crona could be perfectly symmetrical all round if not for those long bits of hair dangling down.]

If you're sure.

[Crona definitely doesn't sound sure. But those hands come up again and take the jacket, giving it a gentle sort of tug.]
