No one laugh.

Back from Vanessa's friend (who's, uh, pretty terrifying by the way). Vanessa needed some help, and I needed the money, but she said I needed to look the part. Eight hours later and, uh, tah-dah, I guess. First person to laugh gets a fender to the face. That goes double for you, Gibney.

Honeysuckle, my love, you were not supposed to terrify the boy. You were supposed to make him swanky. (Which you did rather well it seems, kudos.) Terrifying the new help is very possibly counterproductive to my mission statement here, you realize.

I'm sorry! It was honestly not intentional! But he is a red-blooded American male, so I'd consider the fact he can still walk and talk after eight hours of suit shopping and primping a win, there, Hollyhock. I tried to take good care of him! He's not drooling or speaking gibberish or bleeding from the eyes after our day together, after all, is he? You could have done worse!

I believe you mean you could have done worse. I will give you points for not breaking his spirit but I was hoping you would be easy enough on him that he would not consider it a traumatic event.

I meant you because you were the orchestrator in this endeavour. And hey, he never said it was traumatic, he said I was terrifying! There's a difference! And if I'd been any easier on him he'd be wearing something like rainbow-coloured parachute pants and a football jersey. Is that what you want?

Having actually seen Fred live and in person, albeit only once, I am more convinced he would have been wearing flannel and jeans. If I was the one in charge he would have a cheap, poorly fitting suit and no bling. Because I despise shopping, possibly more than he does, and would spend as little time as possible doing it. And the hair cut would have come from Super Cuts.

We actually did go to Super Cuts. Apparently my name's not good at a lot of the upscale salons anymore. But they did just as good a job for like a hundredth of the price! And you know the best part? Even though they didn't know us there, we didn't need an appointment!

Welcome to the glory that is Super Cuts, love. Speaking of, Honeysuckle, do you want me to beat someone up for not liking you anymore? Because I can and will. You just tell me what twit with a stick up his arse thinks you're not good enough to associate with and I will make him very very pretty. Or her. I don't have anything against punching women.

Tempting, very tempting, but I think I'll have to pass on that fantastic offer. Unless there's some way we could set up an accident for them. Like icing their steps so when they come out in the morning they slip, or something.

That would be very easy to arrange.
