fun with costumes [OPEN]
Who: You! Everyone else! Oh and also Hornet is here too, somewhere.
What: Shopping! Costume workshops!
When: The days leading up to Halloween celebrations (23-29 October)
Where: Soleil and the Academy campus!
A. Shopping Trip
[ Soleil is buzzing with activity as students flock to prepare for Halloween. Whether it's to marvel at what other people have left behind, to marvel at what's been donated in previous years, or you're just trying to pick a costume at all, you have no shortage of creations to gaze upon - and no shortage of your peers to judge them, either.
You can sometimes catch Hornet here, in the days that come, squinting suspiciously at the insect costumes. She mutters and paces, tugging at them like they're personally offensive to her. ]
B. Necessary Modifications
[ For those of a more crafty persuasion, the Academy has opened some usually-vacant classrooms as a makeshift work area for designing and creating your own costumes, or making modifications of your own.
Hornet has taken over a corner of one of the rooms. She's almost a permanent fixture of the workshop, as she sews and cuts with an intensity she usually only reserves for battles. ]
C. Wildcard
[ You can use this to just bother Hornet, or make up your own prompts. Go wild and treat this as a mingle log! ]

no subject
Yes, briefly. As a matter of polite decorum, more than anything. Most of the people of Deepnest were understandably very cautious when I arrived. They didn't get many visitors, much less someone bold enough to walk right up and ask to be let inside.
[Hornet would no doubt guess that didn't go over terribly well at first.]
There were some... initial tensions. Solved non-lethally. But once I received an audience with Herrah, we quickly reached an understanding. She was really... quite reasonable. She graciously allowed me to indulge my curiosity so long as I did no harm while I was there. ...And she was quite cautious too. I never felt the eyes of many a weaver leave me until I stepped well outside the bounds of Deepnest.
As I said, my stay was brief, but it was a unique experience. Truly, I had never seen weaving of that caliber anywhere else in my travels across the Outlands.
