As it's been quite some time since I last did this, it seems time to reintroduce myself for the sake of the new members of the crew and those who aren't aware.

My name is Harry Hart and my assigned job upon the ship is Tailor. It was my job back on my world of origin and it seems I'm to continue it for as long as I'm here. What this means for you is that should you require alterations to your uniform to make it fit properly or need something entirely new crafted you have options beyond having to make it yourself or learning to do without.

Should you have need of anything, please contact myself or my assistant Ryan Farrow via the MID and we will do our best to accommodate your request. We may need some extra time to work on... unusual requests but I can assure you that we'll figure out a solution that works for everyone. After all, if we are to survive out here we might as well have clothing that suits our needs, don't you think?

[An enthusiastic--and metallic-sounding--voice responds in kind/ What fortuitous timing this Harry fellow had!]

A tailor, you say? I think I may be in need of your skills, darling!

I'm a bit wide in the shoulders, so the uniforms won't fit me. Unfortunately I haven't come across a good solution for the problem on my own so far, so I'd welcome a new perspective!

[wordstoliveby]

You are, of course, welcome to make use of our services at any time. We've managed some unusual patterns in the past so I'm sure we'll be able to do something for you.

Can you make dog toys?

[It's for DD, his dog, not him obviously.]

voice;

[wordstoliveby]

I'm afraid I've never had cause to make dog toys before. Is there something in particular you needed?

[warandpeace]

I can vouch for him being very good at what he does.

[wordstoliveby]

You do happen to be one of my more frequent repeat customers.

Would you be okay with making a dress or two? :o The Ingress um it ate the dress I was wearing when it brought me in. Which wouldn't be a big deal or anything but it was my favorite :( So if it wasn't too much trouble or anything I'd be willing to trade for it, even?

text

[wordstoliveby]

If you can give me an idea of what you want a dress will be no trouble at all. As for trade, as long as it doesn't require anything unusual we can just say you'll owe me a favor.

[kidjoy]

You should be makin' all the uniforms look less borin'. They're all black and white.

voice;

[wordstoliveby]

Unfortunately, I must still follow the dress code assigned by the captains. I can't change the color scheme, but as far as in aware you can still wear colorful accessories.

[averagemedium]

Seems like we've gotten a lot more diverse lately, yeah? Let me know if you need a hand with anything unconventional, I can probably help figure things out! I'm used to working with nonhumans, different proportions aren't too weird for me anymore.

voice;

[wordstoliveby]

This might be an odd question but, how familiar are you with the creation of stuffed animals? We've had an odd request.

voice

[gentlemenpreferblondes]

How would you define unusual request?

voice

[wordstoliveby]

I tend to define then as projects outside my usual range if experience. Things like patterns for nonhumanoid clothing items.

voice

[hostessing]

[ This is like music to her ears. ]

I'm so glad to hear a ship of this size has its own tailor.

It's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Lady Alys Vorpatril. Would you mind apprising me of what materials you have to work with for making clothing beyond uniforms?

voice

[wordstoliveby]

It's something of a necessity with such an unusual crew.

The pleasure is mine, Lady Vorpatril. I don't suppose that makes you a relation of Lieutenant Lord Vorpatril?

[ Is there a slight sardonic edge to his use of Ivan's (insisted upon) title? Perhaps but it's very faint. ]

[ventifact]

can you add pockets?

[wordstoliveby]

Yes, I am quite capable of adding pockets. Did you have any particular clothing items in mind for this?

voice;

[goodluckkobra]

What would you want for makin' something new?

[ He's used to bartering, anyway, so it's almost a relief that this places doesn't seem to run on currency, but he also doesn't have shit worth bartering right now. ]

voice;

[wordstoliveby]

That would largely depend upon what you'd want made.

[realitywarped]

But can you make coats? Mine was stolen by the Ingress, and I rather mislike not having it.

[Loki is more than a little annoyed at having to resort to unmagical garmenting, but really, he misses his coat.]

I can send you a rough idea of how it looked, although sadly not how it worked.

Audio

[wordstoliveby]

[ Loki you're a god, surely you can enchant a coat after the fact. ]

Yes, I'm quite capable of making a coat. If you can give me an idea of the pattern I ought to use I should be able to make you something that will work for you.

voice

[flakjackets]

What would you ask for in exchange for a few skirts and blouses?

voice

[wordstoliveby]

It seems like a simple enough project once I have your measurements. As for what you might, I can't think of anything I might require in compensation. Shall we just say a favor owed?

audio; private

[sidecars]

Can you fix tights?

audio; private

[wordstoliveby]

That would depend on the material used for them. If it's too flimsy or damaged it might be easier to replace them entirely.

voice;

[typhlopid]

It is good to hear some of us were assigned jobs to which we're well-suited. I could use a few small alterations to my uniform, provided you are not too busy. Unrelated, do you have the fabric displayed anywhere, and how many different varieties do you have?

voice;

[wordstoliveby]

Small alterations ought to be easily done. And I have my current fabric supply in my workroom. I have a decent variety, I try to pick up new supplies when we arrive on new planets. If you'd like to see them I'd be glad to show them when you come in for your alterations.

Audio;

[ersatzeverything]

I could use some clothes that didn't come with the fashionable "distressed" look.

[Wherever Deacon goes, he wants clothing that doesn't look out place. And although the ship's got a pretty damn wide variety, he's noticed that most people on board don't look like they rolled down a hundred radioactive hills in their clothes.]

Audio;

[wordstoliveby]

You might have to be more specific about your needs than that. If you'd like you can come by during my work hours for a fitting and to discuss what you might like.

voice:

[willneversubmit]

I could use another set of armor. What do you accept as payment?

[Because she doesn't expect it for free. She didn't among the Inquisition, and she definitely doesn't among strangers.]

Just leather and hide armor, not plates or anything like that.

voice:

[wordstoliveby]

[ Well... that certainly was unexpected. Even by the loose standards he's established since coming on board. ]

Ah, madam, armor is rather outside my purview. I tend to craft items more aimed at civilian dress.

[video]

[inruins]

I suppose this is an odd request, but could you alter a uniform to have a proper hole for my tail? [Toriel feels a little embarrassed asking but she might as well.] The rest is fine, beyond being rather tight on my shoulders.

[video]

[wordstoliveby]

[ ...Not the strangest request he's gotten because he's had to make a uniform for a dragon, but this is certainly up there. Then again he also appears to be speaking with a large anthropomorphic goat person. But a gentleman isn't rude about such things, especially not when he's the one to put himself out there in the first place. ]

Madam, if your uniform is tight enough you feel it merits mention then it likely requires alterations as well. I'd be happy to assist you in this, especially as you'll be wearing these for quite some time.

voice

[meyneth]

Oh, yes! Wonderful. Precisely what I need!

Um, do you request any sort of payment? Or do I need an appointment or something?

voice

[wordstoliveby]

If you require something beyond the scope of simple alterations, an appointment would likely be best so that I or my assistant can set the time aside to focus on your needs.

As for payment, generally if it isn't related to uniform alterations some sort of recompense would not go amiss.

[diamondslap]

I require a new pair of gloves and a coat, if you would be so kind.

[murderers gotta look good, you know.]

video

[wordstoliveby]

It might take some time due to the sudden influx of requests but I'll do my best to help you, madam.

[ Don't think he hasn't seen your posts to the network Aurelia. ]
