[The camera is not on Rhus, but instead on the two mannequins before him, dressed up in fancy garb. And that's what he'll be keeping the device's camera on for the rest of the video, with a bit of wobble here and there as he moves. Or breathes.]

The Ruby Bazaar is open now. 'Tis a tailoring store within the Tyr district-- [A pause, then a grumble. Despite sounding tired, he still has enough vitality in him to grumble low in his throat. Clearly someone doesn't know how to advertise. But he's trying.]

If you need clothing, or any kind of textile product like bedding and furnishings just come by. The building is of red brick, with a sign-- you cant miss it. These two coats on the mannequins will be gone by the end of this month, I shall be offering them off to Skadi and the other gods. But they are not cheap, and they certainly will not be available forever.

Lastly... if anyone knows how to animate objects, I've a fair number of questions for you.

[ ooc: come to the ruby bazaar! feel free to have your character place orders or requests here, or on the ooc page itself. any ic questions can also be placed in this post. ]

Yeah. It's pretty bleak so far, fashion wise.

I wouldn't say I'm a trendsetter, but I do like to look a certain way.

[verstoned]

Which brings us to me needing to meet with Thea. [A grumble in his tone. This means more waiting.] That shall take a while.

[prodigalmess]

Why's that?

[ He isn't aware of her being particularly busy, but he also can't say that he knows her entire schedule. ]

[verstoned]

Given I don't know her, searching for the right person will take time.

[prodigalmess]

Can't you message her directly via the bracelet?

[verstoned]

And come off as some sort of strange pervert? No thank you.

[... Which means they're at an impasse.]

But if you're that desperate for something, then mayhap you should come in and set the style yourself. [As he should have immediately, Rhus thinks.]

[prodigalmess]

Is... that a strange perverted thing to just introduce yourself and say you heard she makes clothes?

[ He... doesn't think it is? But his social skills aren't the best, so maybe he's wrong. ]

I wouldn't say I'm desperate, but I can come take a look at least.

[verstoned]

Mayhap you should just goddamn come in, rather than waiting for people to do the work for yourself. [Now he's starting to get grumpy.] Especially when they're your clothing rather than hers.

[ Malcolm puts a defensive hand up. Artists are dramatic. ]

Maybe we got our communication confused somewhere, but I'm not asking you to do anything. If you prefer to just do tailoring, that's fine. Otherwise, Thea's probably got it. She comes from the same time and place as me so she knows what I'd be looking for.

[verstoned]

Then I think we're done talking here. [Gods, what a waste of time.]
