Fashion is pretty important to a lot of people, yeah. One sometimes has to suffer for it~

I blame Earth for the fact that I have some appreciation for fashion now.

*looks at his fur*

Why would one assume I'd need to get stuff... Let alone fashionable stuff? That purple bastard would just blow me up and destroy said clothing, fashionable or not.

Besides, I'm a walking fashion disaster already. No need to prove it.

*pops claws*

I dunno. Your default outfit in catgirl-form seems fairly chill. Kinda like mine.

*Amber, still evading Mini-Lina, points a finger at Aldonza and frantically chants something in passing. Aldonza's clothes morph into a heavy overcoat and a set of snow pants.*

*face turns red* Amber, you miserable little... that's not what I meant! ... ...On second thought, it is starting to get pretty cold around here.

To be fair, that purple boy hasn't been around in forever. So you might be safe

[CRBWildcat]

Yeah, trust us. We'd know if Himitsu was around. Callista set up an alert specifically for whenever he shows up: the sound of nails on a chalkboard coupled with a flock of woodpeckers. The alert hasn't gone off in most of a decade.

[KonokoHasano]

I can imagine the sound and it sounds like it'd be horrible.

[CRBWildcat]

Yeah. Trust me. You don't want to hear it. *shivers*

Though back on the topic of fashion, before Kittenoa and Callista's Earth became inexplicably linked, we weren't that concerned with it. Rex and Sphinx felinoids needed clothing to protect themselves from the temperatures, but the rest of us never bothered with it on account of having full coats of fur. Sometimes we'd go and pretty ourselves up a bit for special occasions, but that was it.

For me at least, spending enough time on Earth changed that.

[KonokoHasano]

Understandable. When you don't need any extra protection, it doesn't fully matter. Fur protects the body and all that. I can see it.

[CRBWildcat]

Mm.

After enough time on Earth, I started getting into the habit of paying more attention to what people were saying about us. Some humans didn't mind it too much, since they saw us as being fairly cartoony...

"To which I'd like to add: be thankful you've never seen my grade school artwork, Konoko."

*continues as if the interruption hadn't happened* ...But for others it started making them uncomfortable, the fact that our anatomy didn't match theirs notwithstanding. Some of us, like myself and eventually Zapana, took these comments to heart and went about developing a full wardrobe. Others don't bother unless they're working a job with a strict dress code; they like working the "we're space aliens, so we have different standards" angle.

As you've probably noticed by now, I tend to favor stuff in black and white. *twirls some hair around her finger* I just like the contrast it provides, y'know?

[KonokoHasano]

We all gotta start somewhere with art, after all~

And nothing wrong with liking stuff in black and white

[CRBWildcat]

I know, right? I love the stuff. That's not to say I don't have a bigger variety than that, it's... just that monochrome against color appeals to me.

"That had better be your clothes you're talking about and not my art."

Oh, don't worry about it.

Y'know, we've been talking about ourselves for a little while and I never got to ask how you've been doing. Life treating you alright?

[KonokoHasano]

Mmm... pretty much, yeah~

Though fourth wall wise, the creative juices to allocate towards actually being able to think up stuff in regards to what could be going on and all of that have kinda run dry! The intense feeling of rustiness

[CRBWildcat]

I'm assuming this is in regards to Spamville and not to your own art? From what I've seen, you still seem to be going strong on that last one.

[KonokoHasano]

In regards to Spamville, yeah.

[CRBWildcat]

That's fine. This place is on life support anyway, more or less. Spamville's storytelling days are pretty much done. There's just the memories to be had now---

*Amber, still being chased by Mini-Lina but noticeably running low on steam, thwacks the back of Aldonza's head in passing.*

...as well as those who've decided to settle in this universe permanently, regardless of the place's state of being. *rubs the back of her head and glares at Amber*
