2st Design [voice]

So, correct me if I'm misunderstanding, but these alterations - they weren't voluntary? You all just woke up with them? Because I've seen fads catch like wildfires before, but this seems a bit much.

[There's a pause that seems as if he's somewhere watching someone pass him by.] You need some color variation in the glint and glimmer, perhaps some subtle shading? People aren't meant to be alabaster-diamond statues, they do have facial features that need highlighting lest they start to look like sparkly lumps. Perhaps the Deities would like some advice for future alterations?

Which brings me to the point of this message...

For those I haven't had the pleasure of meeting, my name is Cinna. I'm a designer and stylist of some repute back home and am looking to build a portfolio here. Seeing as this appears to be the major venue of communication for this place I thought I'd ask if there are any shops available I can work out of. I'd like to come to some kind of arrangement as I haven't the supplies or equipment here to go into business for myself quite yet.

And on a more personal note, Peeta and Katniss, I've found a lovely apartment here in the City proper, with a pleasant view and easy access to a number of locations. It's also quite quiet as there seem to be a number of vacancies nearby... on the off chance you should be interested. Not that your current residence doesn't have its... charm, but the sand does get everywhere, doesn't it?

The way that some fashion designers talk, where I come from, and the things that they make, it seems like it's more about them rather than the person wearing it. But I'm not fashion design major. I just like the shoes.

Well, that's common where I live, too. I just have a different outlook on it.

Shoes can be functional and beautiful, the best of both worlds.

I'd have to see some of your work to be absolutely sure.

I daresay if things go according to plan, everyone will see my work. I fully intend to spread it as far and wide as I can.

Like I said, you shouldn't have any problems with it catching on in a place like this. Where did you find an apartment?

One of the towers here in town, the landlord was quite reasonable about putting off rent until I'm established. Granted, I think it's an arrangement that's popular around here.
