[Alex is keeping himself busy up in the clothier tower this morning, if the video feed is any kind of hint. He's rather focused on some rather minute stitching and in the background Rossini's
Barber of Seville can be heard playing from his laptop.
When he speaks, he's still focused on his stitching, but looks up after a moment.]Anyone hard pressed

If you don't mind, I wouldn't mind something new to wear now and then. I've got, um, sort of interesting tailoring requirements, though.
*Derp, he should have just done video, oh well.*
I'll try to make it up to you somehow.

I would be more than willing to give you an option or three more... And, please, you don't have to worry about making it up to me or anything. I'm kinda bored out of my skull right now, and sewing keeps me busy.
[It's the tailoring comment that earns a grin, though.]
As to your concerns about tailoring, don't worry... I've picked up a few things since coming here and had to make adjustments to some of my own clothing for when I shift. Only so many pairs of pants and shirts can be ruined before you finally change how you make things.

I feel kind of awkward not making favours up to people, though.
Well, you don't have to worry about shifting, I just need a few extra holes in the shirts.
If you don't mind, may I ask what you shift into?
*Shapeshifting was possible but kind of rare in his world.*

Well, we can figure it out, I guess, but really it's not a big deal. I've actually adjusted clothing for Isabella before so I think the biggest change will just be male garments compared to female and I've made both... have you met her, yet?
[Then he shakes his head, setting aside his stitching to talk properly.]
No, I don't mind at all... I shift into a leopard. I can take a fully feline form and a half man/leopard form on top of original recipe Alex.

Sappy? Yep, but also quite true.
He smiles softly, though there is also apology in his gaze.]
My apologies, love... I certainly had no intention of unsettling you with it's mention. It was definitely up there in the 'worst days ever' list.

It truly was.
[He shrugs a shoulder.]
But I'm not angry. It wasn't as if you were covering my door in cobwebs to get a rise out of me, or something like that.

Did you have a problem with the cobwebs, Anders? Because it sounds as if you had a problem with the cobwebs...

That really depends on whether you can make a size 3,785XL?

Well, you might look more like Joseph with his amazing technicolor dreamcoat than what you're aiming for, but I could certainly give it a whirl.
[Amusement. Alex has it.]

Ah, my friend... I do not believe style is anything you should concern yourself over. I've certainly never had any complaints in that regard and have been kept abreast of at least my world's preferred fashion trends.

Heh, I was swimming in my clothes but well, it's hard to swim in them when I don't have that many.

Well, I made something similar for another here already, so I'd be more than willing.
[He tilts his head slightly to one side, his tone matter of fact as he continues.]
I'd need to measure you, though... far better to get the size right now than to have it fall off you the first time the material gets wet.
Reply
[Well he does have a point there. Swimsuit malfunctions would be very unwelcome.]
Oh, yeah sure.
Heh, should I come and see you?
Reply
Yeah, I'm up in the clothier tower and should be for most of the day. Just swing in when you have the time... no rush or anything.
Reply
Seems like you have quite a list already, so I won't ask for anything.
But do you want company?
Reply
[Alex smiles warmly as Chloe's voice pipes in.]
Chloe, if you want anything, you better believe it would be more than welcome. But, yeah... I'd love some.
Reply
Cool. I'll be there in a bit.
[The plus side of having a werewolf for a boyfriend allowed Chloe to know a few things that were probably true for most weres.]
I'll even bring snacks.
Reply
I would absolutely never say 'no' to snacks.
[Chloe, you so smart! <33]
