[ She was getting pretty lucky the fire didn't do much damage or hurt anyone she knew - that she knew about, anyway. Still, she did spent the majority working on a few different outfits for Bill, as well as a certain doll for a certain Egyptian Pharoah. There's an image with a Marinette sitting on the bed, carefully jotting notes down on a pad before she turns to the feed. ]

Phew. I think I'm really going to have to find a place of my own at this point - I'm used to keeping my workspace to a small area, but... [ Meh. She shook her head a bit. Hopping up, she turned the feed around. ]

I got some outfits done though! And I didn't forget about you Bill- have a look. [ She points at a few different outfits. ]

I was outside the wall recently too, and came across a few snakes - I don't personally LIKE snakes, but they do have some really nice patterned hides. I sketched a few down - I think I'm going to dry making a pair of pants or maybe a dress in that style, if anyone's interested in having something like this.. [ She holds up her pad to show off the sketched design. ]

And I do take requests, naturally. [ She might be heading out there again to try to find new ideas, actually. ]

[ Action for Floormates/Visitors ]
[ After her network announcement, she made her way out to the shared living area to take a break from her sewing, making her way to the kitchen area, checking on the snacks she had been cooking. In fact, the smell of delicious, tasty yummies was filling up the area quite nicely, and Marinette was willing to share with anyone. Ah, well, except for the box she was going to sneak down to Keith as a thank you later. ]

You know, for a second there I thought you were going to start asking people to help you skin the snakes.For the record, don't fucking do that. Animal print is in, but fur and scales are murder.

[de_evilise]

Nah, if I was the kind of person that would hurt animals for something like that, I wouldn't ask other people to help me do it- I'd do it myself.

[ And if she /was/ the kind of person who would do something like that, she wouldn't listen to someone telling her not to do it, obviously. ]

[bespredel]

Good to know. Some people are too afraid to do their own dirty work- though I guess... they'd probably also argue that they're too smart to do it themselves if they can make somebody else do it. [ Yuri shrugs, puffing up his cheeks a little and leaning back, slinging one arm behind his head, gaze clipping away from the camera, before back to her. ]

You make clothes often? The stuff you've got is pretty cool. [ And look, Yuri is a very "fashionable" teenager, and he's always on the lookout for new sick duds. Now, custom new sick duds? That would be amazing. ]

[de_evilise]

[ She wrinkles her nose a little. ] Yeah.. I know the type.

[ Fortunately the topic shifts onto something more pleasant, and she nods with a pleased smile, blushing a little at the compliment to the outfit. She glances away from the camera briefly to glance at one of the outfits, and then back to Yuri. ]

Yeah, actually. I'm going to be a designer once I graduate school -- back home I mean -- at least that's the plan. So I'm going to use as much time I have here to get experience making and designing new outfits.

[bespredel]

I really like the leggings you're designing. You get around to making them, I'll buy a pair for sure. I like animal print patterns.

[ As if that wasn't obvious in the video; he's probably got a lion on his shirt and leopard print on his sweater and on and on and on. Kid is a big fan, needless to say. ]

You ever design costumes?

[ Oh Yuri. If only you knew. ]

[de_evilise]

[ She grins. ]

I'll let you know if I do. [ Fortunately she had reasonable rates. Though his question about costumes almost made her chuckle. ]

Like Halloween costumes? Yeah, I made all my own outfits when I did that kind of thing. If you're talking something flashier - i haven't really needed to, but it's not something I can't do. What kind of costume are you looking for?

[thegreatninja]

I am definitely interested in those pants. You got talent that I didn't know about!

Oh, I should come visit.

[de_evilise]

[ She grins at that. ]

Thanks~! And you're welcome to a pair - it's probably going to take me a bit to finish stitching the design since I do it by hand, but I'll definitely let you know.

Sure, come on over, it'd be nice to see you! I kind of went overboard with the baking today - if nothing else I can foist some pastry off on you. [ She adds teasingly. ]

[thegreatninja]

I AM SO THERE!

[Yuffie all but shouts as she rises to her feet.]

You still in the same place? Everyone's been moving around lately.

[She's already running up the stairs but it's worth asking.]

[de_evilise]

[ Whoah - she didn't expect that enthusiastic a response, and she giggles. ]

Yeah, I'm still here, for now. [ She was planning on moving out at some point, just so she'd have more room to work, but that wasn't going to be for a few months yet. ]

Door's open! [ she added, so Yuffie wouldn't feel the need to ..stop her headlong run. ]

[thegreatninja]

[Food is the best way to get Yuffie excited.]

Sweet.

Hiya. [She spoke both on the phone and in person as she walked through the door. She's thinking about moving out to but finding a where is hard. She wants it to be an ideal spot.]

So, these sweets~

[de_evilise]

[ She chuckled again, putting the phone down as she turned to greet Yuffie. ]

That was quick! Did you actually run all the way here? [ She picked up a box, setting it aside on the counter and motioned to a tray that had about two dozen cookies and several leftover sopapillas that Marinette deemed 'still edible, but not good enough'. ]

Help yourself! They're still warm -- well, most of them are. But they are definitely fresh at least.

[thegreatninja]

Yes I did. [Yuffie says proudly.

She isn't winded since it is only four flights of stairs. She's used to high activity which is also why she eats a lot.] These look good~ [She spoke as she slips up next to the try and grabs a cookie in each hand.]

And they smell good. [She takes a bit and smiles wider.] And tastes good.

What cha workin' on?

[Yuffie asks in between crumbles of cookies.]

[de_evilise]

[ She's amused by that proud response. ]

Thanks. That's the last batch I made, so they should still be warm, I think. [ Even better that Yuffie liked the smell and taste even if she was getting crumbs all over the place. ]

Oh, a little of this, a little of that. I'm keeping myself busy, basically - working on different outfits and dolls that I got requests for. Although I'm going to see if I can find a spare mannequin, or make one myself at this rate.

How about you?

[thegreatninja]

[The cookies are warm and perfect and for the next two minutes the only sounds coming from Yuffie are the echoes of chewing. When she's ready to talk she has a third cookie in her hand, this one she's eating slower than the first two.]

Workin', getting around, being sneaky, bugging Yutto. You know, the usual.

[She flashes her friend a warm grin.]

How hard will it be to find a mannequin?

[Yuffie can't imagine that it'll be that difficult but then, she really doesn't know.]

[de_evilise]

[ Marinette chuckles a bit, though she coughs a little awkwardly - yeaah after the first time she had seen Yuffie curled up in bed with Yuuto the topic of her roommie was one she tried to avoid, generally. AWKwarrd. Instead she turns to the kettle, which had been brewing some tea, to pour a cup for Yuffie. She'd get some honey or milk if she wanted it too. ]

Well, mannequins aren't really sold in stores, so it'll come down to seeing if any of the shopkeepers are willing to part with a spare one. But at the same time, it might be easier to alter one if I just get the parts. [ It would just take up a lot of her time. ]

Action

[tempredmental]

[Okay... so 3 dozen sopapillas was a lot, so Keith had separated out some for himself and some for Shiro, and then put the rest in the kitchen on the second floor for others to share. However, he was super grateful, and they were pretty darn amazing, so he grabbed a few extra from the 'share' box, and came up to her floor.

He poked his head in the door, and gave a knock.]

Hey, Marinette? You here?

Action

[de_evilise]

[ She was glad that he liked them! It had taken a few tries to get it right, so there were a few on a plate on the counter that weren't -quite- as good. Though hearing Keith's voice, she trotted in from the balcony with a smile. ]

Hey Keith~! What's up?

Re: Action

[tempredmental]

[Keith gave her a tiny smile in return, looking a little shy.]

I uh got your delivery.

That was really nice of you.

Re: Action

[de_evilise]

[ She smiled a bit more, though with a touch of nervousness. ]

You did? That's great! I mean- I wanted to do something nice for you since the whole...

[ She glances back towards the balcony, mentally shuddered, and turned back to Keith with a cough. ] that.

Think nothing of it..! .....

... soooo... how were they? Did they measure up to how you remembered them?

Re: Action

[tempredmental]

Yeah. They were really good.

[He had a small box with four of them tucked carefully under his arm.]

I was wondering if you wanted to, you know... have a couple with me. They're good with coffee.

Re: Action

[de_evilise]

[ .. Oh! Oh wow - whatever reason she was pondering Keith might have come to pay a visit, that wasn't it. That was so sweet~. She shuffled her foot a little, nodding. ]

I.. y-yeah, I'd love to..! I mean - that would be really nice. [ Erm. ] You don't mind if I have tea instead, do you? Coffee makes me a little... TOO jittery.

[ Which is obviously a bad thing when she needs to sew things. ]

Um, let me just go put the water on. We can sit on the couch there, or on the balcony if you'd rather. The balcony has a really nice view, though.

Even better when you're not plummeting from it.

Re: Action

[tempredmental]

Tea is fine.

[He came in now, glancing over at the balcony. She probably had a better view up here than he did down on the second floor.]

Sure, we can go out there. [He smirked a little at her comment.] As long as we don't climb over with some bed sheets, we should be fine.

Action

[de_evilise]

[ Marinette threw her arms up in an 'awwww' gesture. ]

Well there go my plans for the afternoon ...!

[ She glanced over at Keith, suddenly grinning sheepishly. She really shouldn't joke about something like that - she could have DIED. ]

Sorry, I shouldn't make light of that. Sometimes my sense of humor falls fla-- [ She inwardly cringed, waving a hand as if she could erase that almost pun. ]

Errg-- um... I ... didn't say that either. [ Ahahaha hahah...ah....ha. ]

Re: Action

[tempredmental]

[Keith looked a little surprised, but nodded all the same.]

No, it's fine. I've heard worse.

[Hunk could come up with some pretty crazy puns sometimes.]
