Sep. 11th, 2011 04:05 am[Shortly after midnight, Cinna's voice is something close to a plaintive wail as he finally gets the voice function to work instead of of the video. He is really not having the best weekend.]
I am a Stylist City, I command obscene sums from my clients and back home I am one of the most influential, if not the most influential Stylist in all of Panem!
You can not make all of my clothes disappear! I have a business to run!
[He takes a deep breath.] I realize it's late, but Katniss, Peeta, I'll be staying in the office all day behind closed doors.
No visitors.
[ooc: Since Cinna's entire business is clothing, everything at passione - all clothing, male and female that could fit Cinna has disappeared. Also, anything he tries to alter will disappear from his fingers. Black Bars, today, ladies and gentlemen and he is NOT happy about it.]

Jun. 18th, 2011 03:18 pm[Have a nice, interior shot of a very full passionné and a swivel to a very happy Cinna, standing on the stairs to the second floor.]
Well, I'll certainly say this is a nice way to cap off that week. Full house all around, my reputation must precede me.
If there's anyone here that would like to say hello, I'll be here at the shop, come on by.
[ooc: Anything goes, just don't tell him he's supposed to be played by Lenny Kravtiz.]

Jun. 5th, 2011 01:33 pm[Welcome to the falling and spinning image of Cinna's office and workroom. Finally spinning to a stop on the ground, you're in time to see a dress form fall to the ground. The dress on it is half-done, a few ribbons and scraps of fabric hanging off, which might explain (or not) why the dress is suddenly pounced on by Cinna, who is already covered by a number of ribbons and bits of string. With a hand he starts batting and pulling at the flapping bits of fabric, laughing as they move and unravel. Those who know him will notice that he's rarely seemed so... gleeful. It seems acting like a cat suits him a bit.
In the background, there's another crash and Cinna's head pops up, turning to see a large spool of iridescent thread rolling by, followed by an equally happy and giggling Katniss. She, too, seems to be enjoying herself quite a bit. He watches her for a moment, maybe two, twitching a little before he gets up with a burst of energy to chase after them both.]
Katniss! Share! I want that one, it's shiny! Stop! I want to play with that one!
[They both disappear off-screen and there's another crash, followed by a playful hiss. The sound of two people laughing and wrestling follows, and then the spool rolls back the other way across the camera's view. Another beat and now both Katniss and Cinna scramble over the ground after it, crashing into the dress form and knocking into the camera again, turning it off.]
[ooc: Never leave cats in fabric stores or shops, kids, bad things happen.]

Apr. 29th, 2011 02:40 pmTo all of those invited to the private tours of passionné today, I have to apologize in advance. You are still more than welcome to come by, but I warn you that everything of value has been covered to protect it from my more recent... acquisitions. And speaking of, does anyone know what this one is?
[The camera clicks on for a moment to show a Resplendant Quetzal perched on his arm.]
I recognize the others, but this one is a mystery to me.
[In the background, you can also see three peacocks. All of them are tethered to Cinna's wrist by fine silver chains.
Suddenly the device is dropped and when it stops bouncing and spinning, you can look up to see Cinna batting at his head.]
That is my ear you buzzing little menace, not a flower!
[Stopping, he sinks back into his office chair and as he reaches for the device on the floor, you can see a tiny pair of hummingbirds, their needle-like beaks poking at Cinna's head, probably wondering where all of their delicious nectar had gotten to. They too are tethered, the chains so thin as to almost be invisible, but they glint in the afternoon light coming in the office.
Rubbing the side of his face, he sighs before he speaks.]
As I said, you can still come, just... advising you of the situation.
[He turns the camera off.]

Mar. 6th, 2011 06:39 pm[Here's Cinna, standing outside, next to your typical covered wagon. He's in, gasp, common clothing and a big floppy hat which is currently held in his hand as he scratches his head.]
Why won't it move forward?
[He kicks the wheel and the entire wagon leans.]
...That wasn't supposed to happen was it?
[ooc: Cinna is a banker, which means rich, but skill-less. Oops. Good luck fixing that axle, right? Party members include Billy and possibly Rue. Anyone else care to join?]

Feb. 19th, 2011 05:19 am[The camera clicks on into a semi-dark bedroom. The early morning sun shines weakly through curtains and blinds to show a bed, covers all askew. An alarm goes off and the covers move as whoever is underneath them starts to slide out of bed...
...and falls to the floor with a surprised bark.
From the far edge of the bed, the head of adog and blinks a few times. A paw is clumsily set on top of the covers and he looks at it, eyes wide.
With the alarm still going off in the distance, you can just hear a soft whine as the dog looks at his paw again, and then over to the alarm clock.
It's going to be a very long day.]
[ooc: We're just going to assume that all three of the dog icons are of the same dog, mmmkay? They're close matches but not perfect. Today Cinna is an Italian Greyhound which is like a "toy" version of a normal greyhound. He's about 20 inches tall at the shoulder and weighs about 18lbs.
Apartment-mates can probably hear the alarm (if they're not cursed themselves) and action for them is welcome. Heck, if anyone wants to action something out he will be walking around the City later in the day. Just because he's a dog doesn't mean he can't go check on construction at the shop. Anyone else will have to be video.
Also, I'll tag when I get back this afternoon, I just wanted to get this up now.]

Dec. 3rd, 2010 04:43 pm[The audio opens to the ending of a nice rendition of O, Holy Night. Cinna's voice speaks clearly.]
It's all very lovely for the most part, but it seems rather repetitive. [As he's speaking, however, the song changes to, well, something else. So far, only the instrumental introduction is heard.]
Different arrangements, but they're all the same songs. So I ask, is it common in your worlds to listen to all of them over and over, like today, or is this simply the City's attempt at driving us mad?
[He pauses for a little while to listen, you may even catch him humming a little as he picks up the basic melody.] This one seems nice, but... some of them are a little strange, you have to admit. For example, why someone would sing about the death of their Grandmother at the hooves of... a... [The vocals have kicked in. City, have some chipmunks. There's silence on Cinna's end until...]
...you must be joking. Not even the Capitol would listen to that.
[ooc: Replies may be delayed a little.]

Nov. 27th, 2010 06:11 pm[There's the sound of slight chaos as Cinna's voice, slightly strained, comes over the Network.]
No, madam, I assure you it isn't ninety, eighty, seventy, sixty, fifty, forty, thirty, twenty, ten or even five percent off. And it most certainly isn't two for one.
Don't you know what day this is?
I believe it's Saturday, madam.
You're a right perfect Grinch aren't you?
Madam, I-
A horrible, terrible, awful, anti-Christmas, Grinch!
Madam, please, calm-
[SMACK!] GRINCH!
[There's the sound of someone stomping off and a pause before Cinna speaks again. You can almost hear him rubbing his wounded cheek.]
What kind of curse is this?
[ooc: Cinna, completely uncursed has been overrun today with people asking about sales, deals and giveaways and he is CONFUSED. Also, I couldn't resist - what hiatus?]
