WHO: Eda and the network!
WHERE: The Owlery
WHEN: Before the convention.
WHAT: Introducing the sewing station
WARNINGS: None!

[ The feed clicks on to reveal Eda standing in a shop, her background relatively clear of odd junk for once. She's smirking at the camera. ]

So, a little birdie told me there's about to be a nerd convention in town. The birdie is named Luz and she's been talking my ear off about it.

So I've been thinking to myself, y'know, I could dust off my old sewing machine for this. Been helping Luz with her costumes and all.

[ She pans the camera to the side to reveal a little cloth-covered table with an obviously slightly older model of a sewing machine on it, surrounded by various supplies. A little chair stands in front. ]

And after that I've decided to set up a little sewing station in my shop, for all you nerds who don't have your own machines at home. Free of charge, just bring your fabric. Have fun!

[ She winks and waves, and the feed ends. ]

Ha. That's pretty generous of you. But what if we just need to patch something up that isn't a costume? I'm a little too old for costumes, anyways.

[traaaaaash]

I mean, it's standing there now, so whatever.

[robopriest]

Alright. I have a couple of ripped sleeves and such needing fixing, so I'll probably be around.

Need anything in return for your wonderful gesture for the community? Treats? Coffee?

[traaaaaash]

Well, I'm not gonna say no to that!

[robopriest]

Then it shall be done. Speak your preference or forever hold your peace.

How good of you- I never knew you were so considerate towards the nerds.

[traaaaaash]

Honestly, I just think they're cute. With their little costumes and their playing cards and whatever.

My sister likes watching ink dry, is that not the most ridiculous, adorable thing?

[ A snorting laugh! Look, she teases with love. ]

[wedonttalkabout]

I'm pretty sure they'd tell you they don't look cute at all and are in fact dangerous warriors or...whatever it is the kids are into. Mirabel tried to explain this anime thing to me but I really don't get it.

[Sometimes they have magical powers and sometimes they don't but everyone has BIG EYES. What's that about?]

Oh man, really? I lived in the walls of my house for ten years and I never ever got that bad.

[Just casually lived in the walls. Like you do. ]

[traaaaaash]

[ Okay here's a secret: Eda enjoys herself an anime or two every now and then. TELL NO ONE. ]

I mean, looking cute and kicking butt at the same time sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me, not gonna lie.

[ ... so it's not often Eda finds something weird but. That is kinda weird there, buddy. ]

And, uh, the walls? Sounds a bit cramped for my tastes.

[a_cute_batata]

You ARE coming though, right? Don't you want to see your work live and in color?

[traaaaaash]

I guess I shouldn't let you run around there all on your own, huh.

[a_cute_batata]

You know that's not what I meant at all.

I MEAN that you should enjoy the con too!

[traaaaaash]

Not really my speed, kid.

[Sup Eda. It sure is the guy you encountered at the concert last month on the video feed]

Haha, that's a really generous offer! I hope you get some good sales out of it.

[traaaaaash]

Thanks. Hey, aren't you that person who was talking to Raine after the concert?

[fiddlestick]

Ah, yep.

We ran into them by chance on our way out.

[yeah that's it]

You know Raine I take it?

[traaaaaash]

Uh, yeah, you could say that.

We were classmates.

IS,THIS somehuman tradition.OR isTHISa WILDMAGIC TRAP?

[Look. He needs to ask.]

[traaaaaash]

yes i plan to entrap you with my magic sewing machine

it feeds on teens with cop aspirations

[ Look. You asked. ]

[cardinalrule]

nOBODY THINKSYOU're funny, owlLady.

[He knows that isn't true because there's at least an 80% chance Luz sees this and thinks it's hilarious. If King was here he'd be laughing his head off.]

[traaaaaash]

i think i'm funny and that's good enough for me

Action

[not_a_possum]

[A small imp comes into the store holding a bundle of fabric. He doesn't plan to try and resize all his clothes, of course. He is still holding onto hope that he might be able to change himself back, after all. Still, it might be nice if he learned to sew well enough that he didn't have to worry about clothes in the meantime, and since someone was advertising use of their sewing machine over the app, that meant they could probably see him.

He'd already cut out the patterns at home. He has no idea what he's doing, of course, or if he sized anything correctly, but he figures it would be easier if once he came in all he had to do was sew. Heading over to the machine, he climbs up onto the chair and starts looking it over, googling on his phone how to thread the machine, before he realizes...

Sitting in the chair, he looks down at the pedals. One hoofed foot kicks uselessly at the air. Yeah, he's not going to be able to reach.]

Oh, crumbs.

Re: Action

[traaaaaash]

[ Sorry, Eda's busy being glued to her Tetris game. She vaguely notices someone coming in, but doesn't look up until he speaks. ]

Ehn?

Re: Action

[not_a_possum]

I'm just...I'm trying to figure out how to sew, because if I'm going to be this size, I thought it would be nice to have something that wasn't pulled off a ventriloquist dummy, but apparently my hoof doesn't even reach the pedal!

[traaaaaash]

Hmm, lemme see what we can do about that.

[ She goes to another part of the shop to procure a stool, then comes back over and puts the stool next to the chair and the pedal on top of it. ]

How's that?
