Victor! I got a job!

[lascelles]

That's wonderful. Congratulations.

May I ask where?

[faectitious]

It's a costume shop called Amasking Grace. I get to be a model for them.

[lascelles]

A model? That's perfect. I'm glad to hear they have fashion in your size.

What sort of clothes do they sell?

[faectitious]

Well...they don't have fashion in my size at all. Wataru is custom making smaller versions of what they sell for me to wear.

All sorts of outfits. Some seem a lot more like what I'm used to seeing people wear _{[Read: fantasy outfits]} and some are a lot more revealing.

[lascelles]

Is that something you're comfortable with?

I hope you wouldn't accept a job like that just because I asked you to look for something. We can arrange something else.

[faectitious]

I accepted because I'm bored. Besides, it isn't as if it's difficult work. Wataru isn't going to make me dress like a hussy.

He did say he might get me to wear a clown costume though...

[lascelles]

Who would want to buy a clown costume?

And who is this Wataru? Your supervisor?

[faectitious]

I don't know. Perhaps people who are jesters? I don't particularly understand human fashion.

He is, yes. The one who owns the business. He's a bit of a character.

[lascelles]

What kind of a character? Do you trust him?

[faectitious]

He's a performer. Not a bad person though. I trust him well enough.

Are you worried?

[lascelles]

I'm not worried if you aren't.

[ that is a lie. ]

Will you be doing it in his shop? The modeling, I mean.

[faectitious]

Yes. He said I'd be a mascot.

Why? Are you afraid I'll give him a private show?

[lascelles]

Would you do that?

[faectitious]

Not unless there was something in it for me. Wataru isn't that sort of man though, as far as I can tell.

[lascelles]

[ for some reason he is not happy with this, which is dumb because back in the day all he ever wanted was for the Chevalier to get a job. ]

But he would make you a mascot. I think that's a little disrespectful.

[faectitious]

How is it disrespectful?

[lascelles]

Aren't mascots usually animals? Or people dressed in fur suits?

[faectitious]

_[What...]

Are they? As far as I'm aware I'm to be the face of the store.

[lascelles]

I hope you're right. I wouldn't want him to use you for anything ridiculous.

[faectitious]

I can't guarantee the ridiculous part. He's a ridiculous man.

[lascelles]

And the outfits?

[ Victor is typing.... ]

Could I see them?

[faectitious]

Sure. He's finished a few so far.

[lascelles]

[ they aren't as revealing as he feared - considering the popular style in this city. ]

They'll look good on you, I'm sure. Which one is your favorite?

[faectitious]

The one that looks like a pumpkin. I think it's funny.
