Cast of Characters: 425, Tomoyo Daidouji


Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
    It's still winter in Tomoeda, but the kind of winter where it feels like spring is just around the corner. No snow, just gentle drizzle, cascading down from warm grey clouds. It's not the oppressive kind of rain, more the kind that promises new life in the coming months. It's still the New Years school break, and children and teens will be damned before they're forced to spend it inside. They mill about in raincoats and bearing umbrellas, chattering pleasantly about this and that.

    Tomoyo's Boutique remains open, obviously, the inside filled with the peaceful sound of rain upon the roof and windows. A sign posted upon the door asks customers to wipe their feet and hang any coats on the hooks provided next to the door before stepping in.

Natasha (425) has posed:
Of course Natasha's doing her best to stay dry as she runs from cover to cover. She's carrying an umbrella and wear a raincoat but there's still a bit of smoke and embers sparking from the girl. She's quite happy to remove her raincoat as she enters the Boutique doing her best to keep the sparks shooting from her to avoid setting anything on fire. Hopefully the other customers wouldn't panic too much.

Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
    As Natasha arrives, Tomoyo behind the counter, as well as the few customers she has, look on with surprise at the girl giving off smoke and embers. But they don't flinch away. Instead, they go over to stamp out the glowing sparks, looking on with concern. "Are you okay?" Tomoyo asks, voice soft with worry.

Natasha (425) has posed:
"I'm bit sore, but nothing major." As long as it doesn't start pouring down or she doesn't spend all day out there Natasha will be fine. "You said you had my outfit ready?" She actually has money to spend for once so she figures she should pick it up while still being able to afford it. "I can't wait to see how it turned out!" She almost had forgot about the whole thing.

Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
    Everyone seems relieved at Natasha's assurances, and go back to looking at the materials on display, or waiting next to an occupied changing room. Tomoyo breaths a soft sigh, and nods. "Oh yes! Please wait just a moment, I'll bring it right down~"

    Behind the counter and up the stairs she goes, thick sensible shoes clacking on the wood. After a brief wait, the sounds of her coming back down echo from the stairwell, the young woman arriving with a plastic bag hung from a coathanger.

    "Here you are Natasha~ We happen to have one more booth free, so please, feel free to try it on!"

Natasha (425) has posed:
Natasha grabs the coathanger and eagerly makes her way into the changing room. It would be nice to get into some dry clothes as well. She undresses and carefully put the new outfit not to want to damage it. The outfit's comfortable at least but she wonders how she looks in it. She would find out quickly as she exits the booth and makes her way back into the main store.

Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
    The outfit packed into the bag piece by piece, looking like it sprang from the page into reality. The first is a halter top, with orange and white horizontal stripes, the straps white only. It sits a little high on her belly, and shows a tasteful amount of cleavage. Next is a set of fingerless gloves, mostly black but with patterns of warm colours criss-crossing all around it to look like volcanic crust or cooling embers.

    The pants are grey cargos with folded hems that look like a burning fire, the grey having multiple different shades in wispy shapes, like they're spun from the smoke coming from the hems. At the bottom of the bag are some brown combat boots with thick black soles.

    But the final, most striking piece of it awaits. The scarf. It's cool to the touch, clearly made of fabric, but said fabric is transparent. Contained within is a mix of liquids in all different colours. Reds, yellows, oranges, all warm colours. One end of the scarf looks tattered and burned, clearly intended to be the part left to hang long.

    Once Natasha emerges, Tomoyo is waiting with a camera to snap her photo! "Oh my goodness! You look very dashing indeed Natasha~"

Natasha (425) has posed:
Natasha poses as Tomoyo takes pictures, "Maybe this year I can actually win the WMAT, I came so close last year. A new outfit couldn't hurt right? This will hold together if I have to go all out right?" The clothes certainly were stylish but they had to be able to stand up to a fire elements's full fury as well.

Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
    Tomoyo happily snaps those photos, giggling softly. "A new outfit is like a new start. A chance to put your past wardrobe behind you, along with everything else. Never mind those past losses. You, in this outfit, can definitely win!" She certainly can philosophize about clothing, can't she?

    "And yes, don't worry about going all-out! These are fireproofed as best I can manage. They should hold together for you, they held together under a blowtorch," Tomoyo explains as she slips behind the counter to ring it all up. It's actually quite cheap, the tailor throwing in a discount due to how long it took her.

Natasha (425) has posed:
"That's pretty hot, though I'm not sure how warm I can get. Maybe I should have it tested sometime." Natasha's kind of curious sice the subject came up. She removes a Union credit card, that's been treated to resist heat. It was easier for her than carrying around money and she didn't have to worry about it burning or melting.

Tomoyo Daidouji has posed:
    "Well, only the best for my customers~ I didn't know how hot you could go, so I used the strongest source of heat I could get my hands on." Her card machine pings as the payment is accepted, a receipt printed.

    "Thank you for shopping at Tomoyo's Boutique~ I am sorry it took so long to reach you. Have a nice day!"

Natasha (425) has posed:
"Thanks Tomoyo, I'll have to come by again sometime!" Hopefully the rain's let up by the time Natasha leaves. Otherwise she would be making her way as fast as possible to the closest warp gate. She doesn't want to make everyone panic after all.
