Dec. 1st, 2011 08:34 pmWell, that was a... rather bracing month.
I'm certain that most of you already knew about Ms. Angela Montenegro's return to her home, I've taken care of her things, packed what I could, but if there is anything anyone would like before I donate the remaining items to the Welcome Center, please, let me know.
In the hopes that this holiday season is a pleasant one, my businesses, passionné, salon lustré and even cafe satiné will be having weekly specials through the end of the year. Feel free to come by and see what's available.
[ooc: Off hiatus and slowly getting back to things. Assume that Cinna was so broken by his recent losses that he's been buried in work and hardly going out. He's now pretending that everything's okay. HE LIES.]

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.]

Aug. 11th, 2011 05:27 amPlease tell me that I'm not the only one that thinks the silver hair of a unicorn gathered under the full moon is a little much to pay for one's morning coffee?
...and as an aside, passionné, cafe satiné, and salon lustré will be closed until my staff stops insisting that Laszlo Jamf's glasses are the going rate for a trim. All staff will be paid a partial day's wages, assuming they don't actually find, what was it... ah, yes, the golden egg of a goose for their morning pastry.
What sort of curse is this, anyway?

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.]

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.]

Jan. 28th, 2011 10:36 pmNo, no, no... The entrance needs to split the salon and the shop proper, the space needs to be open, inviting, calming. No narrow entrance hallways.
What about the buzzer?
There will be no buzzer.
So, buddy, how about we do this? Leave the separate doors, an' the walls, and just make a bunch of interior doors between the two.
Have you listened to one word I've said? It is an... immersion experience, surrounded by beauty, transformed by it. Yes, there has to be distinct areas, but distinct doesn't mean closed off and cavernous.
So... we gotta match the decor between the two?
...yes. We will be redecorating everything. Perhaps we should discuss the lighting or audio systems.
There's gonna be sound?
....
[ooc: Dated to this afternoon. Cinna has no idea this is being broadcast. He HATES contractors.]
