Yo, Mayfield, Marisa Kirisame here. I have two really important things, ze.

First! ...I need someone to teach me how to tie a tie. The, uh, suit kind of tie.

Second! We all know the Prom is coming up. I'm sure you're all getting tired of hearing about it. But! This is different. This is me announcing the After-Prom Party. Now this is for the, quote, teenagers - meaning those of us that are forced to go to high school, so I know not all of you are actually teenagers. But you get the point.

Anyways, it'll be at 1486 Kramden. [Which is the house of one Arcueid Brunestud if anyone recognizes the address.] There will be all that stuff After-Prom Parties are supposed to have and there won't be any stuffy sticks-in-the-mud spoiling the fun there. So there will be good refreshments~

And that's it!

Oh. One more thing. Patchy? Thought I'd let you know I'm gonna go do something dangerous. [Hear the grin in her voice?]


[ooc: Post-Prom Party at 1486 Kramden is approved by all players with characters at that house.]

[Bazett happens to be one of the people who the call did not get filtered away from.]

Um...tie a...tie?

[Had prom somehow made everyone strange?]

[adropofjupiter]

Yes. A tie.

[answerer_sword]

...It depends on the knot you desire, the material or the tie, and the occassion that you will be tying it for.

[adropofjupiter]

See, I don't know anything about specific knots other than they exist. I think the tie is silk and it's for Prom.

[answerer_sword]

You are probably looking at a Shelby or Half-windsor knot then. Do you want it wider or more symmetric?

[adropofjupiter]

...you lost me.

[answerer_sword]

Shelby and Half-windsor knots are knots used to light and medium fabrics to go with dress shirts. Shelby knots are thinner, while Half-Windsors are wider. I suppose the Shelby ones make you look more sophisticated while the Half-windsors make you look more intimidating.

[adropofjupiter]

Totally not interested in the intimidation factor, ze. Going for unbelievably hot.

[answerer_sword]

Alright, I believe you would want the Shelby knot then.

[She pauses.]

This...would be easier if I could see an image of you. Tying ties usually works best with an active example.

[adropofjupiter]

I suppose I could stop by once I settle on a color for the tie.

[answerer_sword]

1130 Taylor Road. Or, if you desire, we could pick a neutral location.

[adropofjupiter]

It's not like I need to be inside for you to show me how to tie a damn knot. It ain't gonna take more than like two minutes. I can tolerate your presence that long.

[answerer_sword]

Alright. Then we can meet on my lawn. I will get a tie for you and another for myself.

[adropofjupiter]

Why are you going to wear a tie?

[answerer_sword]

So I can show you how to tie the tie on yourself. Or, if you wish, you could use me to practice how to tie a tie on others.

[adropofjupiter]

Yeah... I think I'll stick with the learning to tie it on myself.

[answerer_sword]

I will show you the proper procedure once we step outside.

[adropofjupiter]

Alright. Sometime later, ze. I'll come bug you when I get the tie.

[answerer_sword]

Will it be alright if I hung up for now?

[adropofjupiter]

Yup. [click]
