[ It takes a moment or two - upside down first, but then- there he is, a jovial yet clearly embarrassed young fellow holding a red coat. ]

There we are.

I do apologize, as I realize the hour is quite late indeed, and more likely than not there are plenty of you in need of catching up on lost beauty sleep. It will not take long, I assure you, I only make a small request.

As a result of recent ... shall we say, capers, it would appear that I find myself in need of a tailor, or seamstress. For some reason, I was entirely convinced that I could fly, but in order to do so, I was in need of- well. A cape. Suffice to say, my efforts were in vain, and I've now utterly ruined a prized possession of mine.

[ here he holds up his jacket, in tatters, and it's not entirely certain what exactly he was trying to do but-- caught up in the heat of the moment, he supposed. Though he looks awfully sheepish. ]

It would be thoroughly appreciated if someone could repair the damage I've caused to the poor thing. While I currently have little means of payment, surely we could reach some agreement.

[ he nods with a polite bow before signing off, ] I thank you for your time and consideration. You've my utmost gratitude.

[ but the feed catches one more forlorn look at his poor ruined coat, and a sigh. No more superhero shenanigans for this mister. ]

I have conducted business with another foreigner in Vatheon, a Rarity. She made me three outfits from scratch with amazing results. I am sure she could assist you. [ Saber won't mention she's a pony. Race doesn't matter as long as the outcome is satisfactory, right? ]

[reiks]

A miss Rarity, you say? [ he may or may not be taking notes. ] I certainly would not want to overwork her if she is busy, but-- three outfits, she must be talented.

[pendragon]

Aye, and it was all done within a few weeks' time. [ A nod. ] She is a very efficient seamstress.

[reiks]

I am impressed. Do you know of her residence, or how I may contact her? It may be quite urgent.

[pendragon]

On your SFC, there is a list of all foreigners. Her name be listed there. I'm unsure of her residence.. she brought the apparel to my home. [ A headtilt. ] I apologize I can not be of more assistance.

[reiks]

-- of course, the obvious answer and it is one I do not think to look for myself. [ blasted technology :| ] You have been most helpful already, there is no need for apology. You've my gratitude.

[pendragon]

[ She nods with a brief smile. ] I'm called Saber. I haven't been around for too long, but I do manage to pick up odd pieces of information here and there. Feel free to contact me if something else arises.

[reiks]

Ah, then I thank you, m'lady Saber. You may have just saved my poor coat from an even worse fate.

Harry Monmouth, at your service in return, my friend.

[pendragon]

Well met, Harry. [ Being called 'lady' still offsets her slightly, but she appreciates this man's politeness more than she can let the title bother her. ] Have a lovely evening.

[He wants to ask why a cape, but settles on.]

What did you do to it?

[reiks]

Shears, I believe. Possibly a knife. You see, it was not quite long nor breezy enough to make a substantial cape, and alterations were in order.

I assure you, it made perfect sense at the time.

[unrestrained]

I was expecting a more heroic story than that. What do you need a cape for? [They don't actually help people fly. Sadly.]

[reiks]

I speak only the sad, less than heroic truth. [ they do too. or at least they did. ] And I believe it was more for dramatic flair than anything seemingly functional.

[unrestrained]

So you took sears to your own cape? Isn't that the villain's job. [His didn't :c] I think they stopped being dramatic a few centuries ago. More of a get caught in something instant death angle now.

[reiks]

I was lacking a villain at the time, actually, but that was not the reason behind it. Dramatic flair and increased velocity and all that, you know.

[unrestrained]

Uh, wouldn't it just flap in the wind and slow you down if it gets caught in something?

I should be able to repair the garment. I normally run an establishment where I do repair and tailoring work, but currently I am spending my time taking care of my girlfriend whom has fallen into a coma. I am willing to take the job though, you'll just need to drop it off at her apartment.
