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!)

[Lio notices Audie wandering around and approaches, just in case she's lost or something.]

Everything alright?

[ Laurent caught Mabel looking around the island and he wonders if they should decorate the island a little more... Anyway, he walks up to her. ]

Like what you see?
sugooooooooi: Looking up excitedly. (hey what's that)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-18 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow! Good job, everyone!

[Serval's actually wearing something other than her usual outfit? That seems weird, honestly. She's taken off the monocle, which she's currently batting around like a cat toy, and the coat, which is dumped on the ground somewhere. Also, there's a halo floating above her tall ears for some reason.]

I still don't really get fashion, but it's fun, isn't it?

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-18 07:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Don't just dump your clothes-- Minato stoops down and picks up the coat, dusting it off before folding it in his arms. ]

"Fashion, function, and comfort" are all pretty fair judging criteria.

[ He, who'd walked on stage wearing the same thing he wears day in an day out, was very glad to hear that comfort was taken in full consideration. ]

How do you feel 'bout wearing something different than the usual? Think you'll keep trying on different clothes?
sugooooooooi: Talking about something she's looking warily at. (hard out here when you can't read)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-18 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno! [She giggles and keeps batting around the monocle.] What if my normal clothes just grow back on under them? Though I think that would take a couple days. And maybe they won't, since we can't do as much as normal here.

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-18 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
What...

[ What the fuck, Serval ]

That'd be cool. I want to see that happen.

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-18 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[ What... is that a halo?? Laurent squints momentarily before looking at the rest of Serval. It's kind of amusing how she just tosses the clothes on the floor like it's nothing. ]

Fashion can be fun, but everyone has a different idea of what looks good or not. Though, did you somehow turn into an angel when we weren't looking?
sugooooooooi: Nervous laughter. (i don't get it)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-18 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh! One time Kaban-chan lost her gloves, and it took them a little while to grow back, so her hands were just the same colour as her gloves for a few days.
sugooooooooi: Excited, victorious. (mcdonald's mcdonald's mcdonald's)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-18 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I got this in the mail! What do you think it is? It's sort of fun.

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-18 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[ What kind of angel did they kill to steal their halo-- ]

You can get this sort of thing in your mailbox too, huh... don't your ears get snagged on it?
sugooooooooi: Applause. (yaaaaaaaaay)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-18 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Hi! [Serval waves, back to the same clothes she wears every day.] We're building more onto our house. Are you looking for something?
sugooooooooi: Confused but excited. (what's this now)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-18 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Sometimes, but they don't get stuck. [She tilts her head and the halo bobs.] Do you wanna try?

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-18 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
...You said Kaban-chan is a human?
sugooooooooi: Smiling and looking back. (come on come on)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-18 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
She's a human, but she's also a Friend! She was born from Sandstar and a human hair, just like the rest of us.

[So she's essentially... a humanized human.]

[ Cute...

Laurent looks surprised.
]

You can take it off easily like a hat?

[ ?????? ]

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-18 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[ What does that mean

Minato's not going to think about it. ]


I see. [ he says, even though he does not ]

That sounds convenient, though... I wish I could just grow clothes and not bother changing out my uniform every day. The only time I ever wear different clothes is to go out with people on Sundays anyways.
sugooooooooi: Calling out and reaching or pointing. (oh!!!)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-18 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Right? Though it seems like everyone here likes wearing different clothes all the time. I'm not used to having all different ones.
sugooooooooi: Mild surprise. (idk what)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-18 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh! Just like this.

[She lifts it off and hands it over.]

You put it on your head and it just kind of floats there!

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-18 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not either. At school, we have uniforms, so it's the same thing all year. Wearing it outside of school is okay too.

[ It's very convenient! It's great. He doesn't have to think about clothes at all. ]

[ This is so surreal to look at. Laurent blinks as he stares at the halo. It really is just like a fashion accessory... but what makes it float?

???

Anyway, Laurent takes the halo and puts it on himself. It floats above his head. He takes a quick selfie with the NookPhone and then gives the halo back to Serval.
]

I feel like I've been enlightened.
sugooooooooi: Raising her hand like a cat paw. (question!)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-18 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, okay! I was starting to think it was just a human thing.
