[X] Steampunk Victorian Harmony Kendall
You hemm and haww as you wondered the store, mind lost in what you could do with the assorted costume pieces.
You were tempted by the knight outfit, being somewhat inspired by the comment made by that dweeb behind you when you were looking at the pieces of it.
But even if it was come as you're not, you're not into other girls and would want to go prancing about like a les... lebanonist in a man's outfit and hitting on them with a sword and stuff.
Because you're totally not like what they say cheerleaders or the Cordettes were. And Cordelia had made it absolutely certain that the Cordettes were not that way.
Something about don't ask, don't tell... like totally bogus, why couldn't you tell if you score some total beefcake? Or a scrumptious blondie bear? S'not fair that you couldn't brag.
Still, it was a good idea to try something new. After all, EVERYONE was expecting you with a unicorn type halloween costume or maybe a pink princessy outfit... or even a fairy godmother outfit.
You're going to surprise them!
You'll show them. You'll show them ALL!
A short white french waistcoat that had to be silk if you had any kind of a judge, a skirt with gears already sewn in them, a tiny top hat... oh!!! a monocle. It was fancy, total score-age!
That's when you behold it; the jacket.
The weave, the stitching, the embroidery, the lacey design. And that fabric. It was absolute perfection.... this was more than just a jacket, but it wasn't long enough to be called a proper coat, even if it did have the double vent tails at the back for such.
Creamy yellow that was almost gold, and given the way it shone under the lights, you could swear that this... this jacket might have had gold and silver threading.
Naturally, you took it before someone else could lay their filthy and unworthy hands on such a thing. This absolutely gorgeous and perfect jacket that you would get even if it wasn't halloween. Why it's in Ethan's, you do not know. What you DO know is that such a item would have kill your credit card easily. But the price tag on it... well, if the man didn't know what this was worth... not your fault.
It would take work to get the skirt to match the fancy jacket, but it could be done. You know so. You had a pair of boots that could sort of go with the jacket, but then, black went with everything.
You sigh and idly included a toy gun that looked like it had been a nerf gun at one point before someone bronze plated it and added a few gears, dials and... was that? It did look like someone included in some LED display on the side with a little slot for a battery to power it.
How... well, if you were going to be a lady adventurer, you really needed to include in a vintage gun that looked like it belonged to the era of Mary Poppins.
Paying for the items in question wasn't too bad, while the cost was more than what Party Town would have charged for outright buying of said costume parts, it was underscored by just how cheap the jacket had been. And that jacket would have cost a fortune in any normal clothing store.
And with the receipt in your hand along with the outfit... it was yours.
You made your way home and tried it on and discovered that yes, your keen eyes and astonishing fashion sense was unbeatable. This would beat even that cat costume that Cordelia was said to have gotten from Party Town in LA...
Becaue you were Harmony Kandell, gentlelady adventurer~
