You may select the color, but the sparkle is non negotiable.

From:

Deal. Green.

From:

gottalearntoplayitright

Green it is then. Shoes off, sir.

[Shrugs out of his jacket and kicking his shoes off to get settled in for the moment]

From:

[ takin off his... well if he was just fucking around in their cabin probably slippers. fuzzy slippers ]

I think this is gonna be my first pedicure.

From:

gottalearntoplayitright

Cute slippers.

[Grabbing his ankle and tugging]

From:

elementarymydeer

They're comfy and warm.

[ SURRENDERS because resistance is futile ]

[Digs the clippers out of his pocket and starting with the first foot]

Good to know you at least packed something other than work clothes.

From:

elementarymydeer

Well, technically... I usually put these on for house calls, 'cuz I don't wanna stomp around in boots but don't wanna have bare feet while working.

From:

gottalearntoplayitright

Makes sense...wouldn't bare feet while working be pretty dangerous, right?

From:

elementarymydeer

Yeah. I mean, imagine dropping a screwdriver on your foot, to point out the most obvious danger.

It was nice dressing down during retirement…but I do enjoy dressing up to a degree.

From:

elementarymydeer

You DO look nice fancied up.

From:

gottalearntoplayitright

A blessing and a curse. Who would have guessed that effort does actually make a difference?

From:

elementarymydeer

I could have guessed! But it does kinda make me glad I'm not an onstage kinda guy.

From:

gottalearntoplayitright

I'd been meaning to ask....did something happen? Not that something had to have happened, but...you do seem very 'dress up' averse. Attention averse? Something like that.

And you are not a particularly introverted guy, so...

From:

elementarymydeer

I lose out on a potential vigilante career change if my face becomes famous...

From:

[Pauses mid nail clip-]

I cannot tell if that is a joke or serious...

From:

elementarymydeer

If people could see me coming, it would defeat the point, right?

From:

gottalearntoplayitright

Wouldn't that make you even more unexpected? Hiding in plain sight?

From:

elementarymydeer

It might! But more seriously, mm, I don't like following rules. If I had to perform and act a certain way, or present a certain image even if I didn't feel like it suited me, I'd start to chafe at it.

From:

gottalearntoplayitright

Fair enough.

[Switches legs, grabbing the other foot]

From:

elementarymydeer

Plus I'm bad at singing, dancing, and acting, and I'm not hot enough to make up the difference.

From:

gottalearntoplayitright

To be fair… You’d be surprised how average most idols are in all those areas when you start looking closely enough.

A good stylist, enough mixing, and celebrity status will do wonders on what people think. I’m a solid six on a good day.
