Holiday parties

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

So, one Jumbo Carnation (why, yes, he claims that is his legal name, why do you ask?) has come in looking to hire us in a security capacity.

He is throwing three parties for the holidays. The first is on the 21st, the second on the 23rd and the third on New Year's Eve. He's apparently pretty high profile (he's a fashion designer of some sort? Where is Adrienne when I need to know these things?) and is worried someone may decide that his party is worth targeting to take out some mutants and make a statement by some anti-mutant hatemonger. As such, he wants mutant security to work his parties.

I'm sure you guys have plans for at least part of the holidays but if you can/will work any of the parties let me know. I've already begun calling around the other security agencies to see if they have anyone they can recommend so I can get up a crew of about six in total, including us. Oddly enough, Fred Duke's name came up so I'm going to head over to the mansion to see if he's interested in taking the job.

Ooo, I would like! I have just the piece in mind. You'll love the way you look in it so much you won't even remember it's a dress and thus the bane of your existence. (Just don't, y'know, literally forget it's a dress and sit like you sometimes do or you'll end up flashing the guests, okay?)

Whilst wearing a dress I do keep in mind that I should not straddle backward chairs or sit indian style, my love. In fact, I can behave quite like I am an actual lady. You can ask Jean-Paul or Warren, though the latter may be awkward so stick with Jean-Paul. He has witnessed it often enough.

Wait, how short is this dress?

It's shin-length but it's not a tight skirt, don't worry. You'll still be able to kick serious ass with full range of motion if you need to. Just... wear underwear in case you need to be doing any high kicks?

For the record, I have a tendency to wear underwear at all times unless I am utterly unable to do so. Which occasionally happens when you are in jungles for prolonged periods of time. However, I fully intend to be wearing knickers, thank you very much.

Just wanting to make sure you're not on the front page of the News Of The World or Star, Hollyhock!

I'm so glad you're just looking out for my dignity, Pansy m'dear.

It is true - she does clean up very nicely. I'm sure there are pictures around somewhere from the art gallery opening that we went to earlier this year.

Oh, I don't doubt it for a second!

[x-copycat.livejournal.com]

Yes, I do believe there are pictures but I do not plan on volunteering where they can be found. Adrienne may petition to dress me in skirts more often and you know how persistent she can be.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

I agree. That Adrienne can be dogged like a bitch when she wants something!

Ain't that the truth I remember that one time when she was really insistent on...oh, wait, that story isn't safe for children or gay men.
