Weekend 3


WEEK 3 LOG
Weather: Saturday and Sunday AM - Clear skies, PM - slightly cloudy


Saturday rolls around, and the long-awaited fashion show is finally here! To the right of the resident services building is a long, white carpet that runs the entire length of the resident services area. There are studio lights set up behind each chair, creating a theatrical atmosphere. On each side are lines of white chairs, though the two closest to the microphone at the top of the runaway on both sides have flower crowns on them to indicate the guests of honor. There are enough seats for everyone on the island (including Tom Nook and his crew), and there isn’t any assigned seating. Anyone’s free to grab any chair they’d like.

Label herself is standing at the microphone, and she nods at everyone when everyone’s been seated.

“Hello, everyone.” She gives an encouraging smile to everyone. “I’m glad you all came. Welcome to Isla Sonrisa’s first ever fashion show. We’re hoping you have a good time, too; we’re all looking forward to seeing what you have to show off. First, though, I’d like to introduce you to the other judges.”

Seated at a table are three others: a blue hedgehog; another hedgehog--this one, dark red; and… a wolf? That’s a wolf for sure, with a pair of sunglasses perched atop her head.

“I’d like to present Mabel--” She gestures to the blue hedgehog, who smiles brightly and widely and waves with both paws. “--Sable,” Label says, gesturing to the other hedgehog, who seems much shyer, but no less pleased to be here. “--And Audie,” Label says, and the wolf waves and smiles brightly--it rivals Mabel’s own smile!



“We’re all very pleased to be here, and we hope you’ll have fun today. Good luck to all of our participants.”

Despite her slightly subdued demeanor, she smiles encouragingly again, and takes her seat next to Audie, across of the other two hedgehogs!

After the introductory speech, the fashion show begins. K.K. Disco plays from the speakers, and Mabel calls up each contestant one by one to walk down the runway and strut their stuff. It’s a fun fashion show, and Mabel, Sabel, Audie and Label are all writing down their notes on what appear to be score cards.

Once everyone’s had a chance to strut their stuff and the judges have had a while to deliberate, Mabel returns to the microphone and clears her throat.

“Wow, everyone! You all had some really incredible outfits! We really love what you all brought to the runway, and we have our winners! In third place is… Emporio! Your suspender outfit really looked snappy! In second place is Sylvando! That summery look really captures the spirit of the season.”

She pauses, as if for dramatic effect.

“And finally, our winner... is Zeke! Your bathrobe was a little unconventional, but it combines fashion, function, and comfort! Congratulations to all our winners, and please make sure to pick up your prizes from our table!”

Those prizes are: First place, an item from Label's fashion line and 10,000 bells. The runner-up receives a voucher worth 5,000 bells. The third place prize is a voucher worth 2,000 bells. Everyone who participated gets 1,000 bells!

--

On Sunday, there's a celebration of the fashion show at Resident Services! There are tables set up with refreshments -- sweets and desserts of all kinds -- and a water cooler with drinks. Balloons sit on each corner of the area, and there's music playing in the background. The Able sisters and Audie are there by the time you arrive.

Audie seems to be wandering around outside of the party at times, looking at the homes and admiring the trees and decorations scattered throughout the island. She seems very curious about the island and may have a couple of questions for anyone who approaches.

Mabel and Sable seem to be discussing something of importance. There's a lot of nodding, a lot of glancing up and around the island, and then there's a delighted smile on Mabel's face at some point. She may also have some questions for you all, too, when she and Sable are done talking.

Otherwise, feel free to enjoy the party and continue your business on the island as always!


(OOC: Congratulations to the winners of the fashion show! As always, any questions can be directed to the FAQ!)

I'll try not to, but sometimes it's just so tempting...

[ He tries. Kinda. ]

Though back home, I had a friend I liked teasing a lot. You two are actually kinda alike.

[She gives him a very unimpressed look.]

Are we, now?

[Is it time to be nosy...]

How so?
conceptualize: (pic#14101292)

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-24 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
You two are very...

[ ... ]

... bright.

[ He doesn't know how to say it without it sounding cheesy. ]

How are you on horror? Get scared easily?
transfusionem: (pic#12951315)

[personal profile] transfusionem 2020-07-24 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Bright.

[You do realize that also sounds kind of cheesy, right...]

...I dunno. I don't watch horror very often, honestly.
conceptualize: (pic#14102687)

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-24 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
Sometimes, I'd bait him with horror movies and he'd be absolutely catatonic.

[ It's fun to tease him, but it was out of love and fun. ]

I'd like to see you watch a horror movie.
transfusionem: (pic#12951313)

[personal profile] transfusionem 2020-07-24 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
That's mean.

[She raises an eyebrow.]

Do we have any here?
conceptualize: (pic#14102709)

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-24 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
I can't say that for sure, but I can tell you some horror stories instead. Would you like those?
transfusionem: (pic#12570520)

[personal profile] transfusionem 2020-07-24 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
Sure. How scary could they possibly be?

[ Laurent just smiles, and then corrects his expression to set the mood for the story. It'll be short. ]

As a boy played in the basement, Mother called him upstairs.

From behind him, She whispered, ‘Don’t go up there.’ 

[ The end. ]

That's it? That's like... Everyone knows that one!

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-24 01:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Tell me your best one. It can't be worse than a carpeted kitchen.

[ Give him your best shot. ]
transfusionem: (pic#12570515)

[personal profile] transfusionem 2020-07-24 02:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Carpeted bathroom.

[Dun dun dun!]
conceptualize: (pic#14102687)

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-24 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, that's definitely an upgraded terror on its own. I'll have to concede.

[ Laurent laughs a little. ]

What a nightmare for whoever has to clean that.
transfusionem: (pic#12951320)

[personal profile] transfusionem 2020-07-25 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it was almost too spooky to say.

[She shakes her head.]

At that point, would you even want to bother? Your life is already in shambles that what's a dirty bathroom gonna do.
conceptualize: (pic#14101298)

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-25 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
That's sure to leave a stain on my life resume if that was the case.

[ Haha.

Ha.

[That's not funny at all but Adelaide still laughs. She's terrible.]

Really putting your achievements down the toilet.

[bye]

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-25 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Adelaide is such a good sport. Imagine nobody laughs at your joke, no matter how bad it is. Laurent laughs a little at that. ]

We're really doing bathroom jokes now, are we...

[You could just say she has a sense of humor that's... A little shitty.]

Seems so... How the mighty have fallen.
conceptualize: (pic#14102694)

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-26 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
Are we mighty?

[ He glances over at her while forming little sand mountains at his feet after sitting down. ]

As mighty as these soon-to-be mountains?
transfusionem: (pic#12951360)

[personal profile] transfusionem 2020-07-26 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
[She glances at the sand mountains, and hums thoughtfully.]

...Probably not that mighty. It was a very short fall.
conceptualize: (pic#14102732)

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-26 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ Laurent hums while thinking... ]

What kind of clothes do you like wearing?

[ Assuming this isn't totally out of left field, because they recently had a fashion show. ]
transfusionem: (pic#12951367)

[personal profile] transfusionem 2020-07-26 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
...Comfortable?

[It's not exactly bizarre, but it isn't a question she has a good answer to.]

I'm not much of an expert on fashion, but if something feels bad to wear why would you, you know?
conceptualize: (pic#14102677)

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-26 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
Hm... maybe in a formal event?

[ But Laurent highly doubts there will be anything like that here, so. Maybe it's a moot point. ]

Isn't it a great feeling to have an extra large, comfortable hoodie sweater and lounging in it? I hope the trend continues even after I grow old.

[personal profile] transfusionem 2020-07-26 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Not all fancy clothes are uncomfortable... But you have a point.

[She cocks her head.]

When you’re old are you even going to care if the trend is dead?
conceptualize: (pic#14102739)

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-26 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
Good point. I probably won't. They'll see old man Laurent with an oversized hoodie sweater in the middle of winter and drowning in multiple scarves.

[ Yeah, that's how he'd live his life... if he even gets old anyway. ]

What about you?
