Aliquam: The Tailorā€™s

Syed had kindly explained their situation before the performance started, so Lute was able to understand certain stuff. The wonderful performances eased his mind and he found himself calm enough to wonder about why they were invited to a party, with Delilah reminding him of his deep-rooted hate of such events, but when they arrived at the tailorā€™sā€¦ That was where the virtuosoā€™s panic all came flooding back.

There was so much ā€¦ richness in the place that it hurt his very soul. Sure, the suspicious Tobias dude would pay their bill, but even if Lute hated the man money was money! He couldnā€™t just waste somebody elseā€™s moolah on a suit that he would only wear for one night! Well, maybe he can butā€¦ Stillā€¦!

The seamstress finished with the others and it was Luteā€™s turn before he could even make up his mind to jilt the affair. She briskly motioned for him to move his arms then looped the measuring tape around his waist; Lily asked him what look he was aiming for and the white-haired boy gulped nervously before whispering out a timid, ā€œSomething simple. Not too frilly or expensiveā€¦ā€ She turned him around again and stared right into his eyes, her irises gleaming behind her glasses as she pulled her measuring tape around his chest. ā€œIf youā€™re looking for ā€˜cheapā€™, this isnā€™t the right place for you. I only make the best, and that kind of quality has a very high price,ā€ The seamstress informed him before directing him off to a certain part of the store. But Lute didnā€™t know anything about fashion! He could wear a sack and enjoy it!

That enough was apparent when he was about to enter the dressing room with his outfit of choice, only for Lily to seize his tuxedo and then hold it close to his body, and then gasp in repulsion. The seamstress then tugged him around and then rifled in the nearby racks, only to emerge with a suit that was obviously a better fit for Lute. ā€œT-thanks,ā€ He squeaked as she left. Lucien briefly appeared beside him but then ran off again. That kid's going to trip and crash someday, he just knew it. "Be careful!" He called out after the summoner who was now wearing a ... panda hat? The virtuoso sighed and disappeared behind the partition to change into his new outfit.

The concept of dressing up in expensive silks and gemstones overwhelmed him and Lute felt a little nauseous as he walked out from the changing area. ā€œHey Marcus,ā€ He approached the wind mage, ā€œDo you think thereā€™s a chance I can back out now? I kinda feel a little sick.ā€ The virtuoso didnā€™t mention that he was nervous to be out of place in a party that was obviously going to be attended by aristocrats, but maybe that was apparent enough on his pale face.
Hey Buns, hope you don't mind if I borrow Syed as Lute's recap pal.

I'll post soon. How is everyone? Does anyone here like chocolate popcorn?

Edit: Posted! The accursed chocolate popcorn container won't open and nobody ate my coffee jelly but me. This week has just been one culinary disappointment after another. :<
Wow. o w o
@those newspapers Jasper and Avian found:

Story time! I tried doing that pose back when I was in grade school, but instead of sitting up on the table like a superstar, I fell down. Yep. I wasn't built to be a diva apparently.

Academy of the Arts: Sound Room

You know, Lute seriously thought Rose was going to melt him into a puddle. However, the contrary happened and the virtuoso shook her hand nervously, his heart hammering away in his chest, and then watched as the horse galloped off to parts unknown. Rose then instructed him to continue on with the clean up. Trixie helped him with picking up the instruments and he was thankful for her intervention, but the girl sped to and fro so much. Maybe she was scared of Rose? ā€œUh, leave that to me,ā€ Lute held out his hand to stop Trixie from cramming a tuba in with the drums and she let out a tense giggle before leaving to check up on Lucien.

ā€œBye, miss Trixie! Thank you!ā€ Lute called out after the girlā€™s retreating figure. Ariaā€™s voice rang out and he realized that the illusionist came over to help, which dampened his mood. First Lucien, then Trixie, now Aria? He was being a great big bother now, wasnā€™t he? ā€œI could do this by myself,ā€ The virtuoso grumbled almost childishly but Aria wasnā€™t having any of that, so the two of them continued piling up the instruments until the large container was full and the floor was back to its spotless state. That done and out of the way, Lute turned around to ask Rose what was next when the lady from earlier, Dalia, appeared.

It seemed like Rose was going to be in trouble for what he didā€¦? ā€œItā€™s my fault, miss Dalia! I ran in without even bothering to look around and I caused a huge mess- and some instruments are broken- but Iā€™d be more than happy to pay them off! Maybe not all at once, just small downpayments every now and then, but still! Please donā€™t blame miss Rose- Ack!ā€ Lute was in the middle of giving Dalia yet another bow when Aria finally pulled him away, bowing and apologizing too. ā€œWhy are you apologizing? Did you kick her horse? Is that why he snapped at me?ā€ The virtuoso hissed as the illusionist hefted him away from the scene.

He sulkily followed after the others and seated himself down. It just wasn't right that Aria dragged him away like that with her nails digging down on his arm. "Hey Lucien, you okay? Thanks for the help, by the way," Lute tapped the summoner on the shoulder and whispered. Oh yeah, and another thing. "Hey Syed," Lute leaned over to catch the tall man's attention. "Who was that man that was with you guys earlier? And why does Dylan look pissed?"
Okay! I'll be posting soon /o/

Edit: Posted! And my coffee jelly came out perfect! * o *
Good afternoon everyone. I'm not sure what to write, but I'll try to get a post up ... soon-ish? If anyone wants to go ahead then please do so; I'll busy myself with making coffee jelly in the meantime.
Yeah, me too. Sorry for the inconvenience, MUG!
