Entry 602; Day 1302

[Filtered from Known DELILAH Members || Unhackable]
I rather wonder if I've not lost my mind a little, but that shouldn't be surprising after having been here for six years and six days now. And so, perhaps I have lost my mind. That might explain this little experiment.

In point of fact, Princess Rosella, you ought to be credited with putting this idea in my mind quite some time ago. Or perhaps you ought to be blamed. We shall see, I suppose.

In any case, as I recall, you, Princess, took to wearing different clothing after some time in the City. On a whim or as an experiment, as I recall. Or perhaps someone put the idea into your head too. I'll admit, the idea did stay with me. And certainly the City's changed what I wear from time to time--sometimes, indeed most of the time, for the worse.

But, still, I thought it might be interesting, after all this time, to embark on a bit of an experiment of my own. And since no one seems to be melting today, it seemed as good a day as any to begin it:



I don't see the harm in it, but I'm not entirely certain I quite like it. Not yet, at any rate. It's different. The shoes are rather comfortable, I suppose.

But I don't feel as though I could be seen at the cafe like this--the Turnabout Cafe, I mean. I've seen what everyone looks like running in and out of Cafe Juliet and that's quite different. Being seen in something like this there is rather different from being seen in something like this at one's own cafe.

The shoes are rather comfortable.

[ooc: Cut for a large SFW picture of shoes. Playing the part of Cain's feet...Caru's feet! Thank you, thank you. They'd also like to thank the Academy. tl;dr: Cain's gonna try wearing stuff like jeans and sneakers from time to time. He'll probably keep on with the white shirts and black jackets. But with jeans sometimes. But it's a bit of an adjustment for someone who's used to wearing Victorian frock coats like...all the time. But I think he'll manage to do it with aplomb, don't you?]

...forget obscure, I was totally thinking the same thing (welp we're nerds)

Well, my boots do, but those are boots! The shoes certainly aren't anything like that, and some of the others have things like buttons or buckles, anyway.

[Oh, no, he's really going full hipster, isn't he.]

The material does take a bit of breaking in, really, but it's marvelously comfortable once it does. And really rather durable, too. I think you'll like it quite a bit.

Red curtains and chevron floors, awww yeah.

Well, I--that is, I do sometimes. When I'm, er, wearing modern clothes as it is, that is. Most girls do seem to wear them, and it's almost impossible to find a modern skirt of a proper length, anyway.

The crossover I should write someday.

...Well, that's remedied easily enough, isn't it?

And I would very much like to see your new modern outfit in person. Especially the wonderfully comfortable shoes.
primrosella: (Girlish)

Never not relevant.

Supposing I can find you, that is! If you're hiding out from the cafe, then perhaps you'll simply have to come visit me, instead.
