Important Public Announcement

[seemstressed]

Name: un: taru
Date: March 1st
Format: Video

_{[When the feed connects there's a moment before anyone can be spotted. All there seems to be is the backdrop of a kitchen and a lone, wooden chair set out. Soon enough Tataru's hopping up onto the chair as if to draw even more attention to herself (and add a few feet to her, uh, short stature). Up her arms go as she waves them about, determined to be seen and heard.]}

Attention, attention! After asking many people I've realized that an extremely important Eorzean holiday is unknown here! I thought that perhaps it might be celebrated since Valentione's Day was but apparently not...and I simply can't let that be!

_{[Is someone passionate about this? Seems that way.]}

What sort of holiday could be so important? Why, it's Little Ladies' Day - a celebration of all womenfolk! A day where every lady, regardless of age, race, creed or class is treated like they're the sultana themselves!

_{[To put it frank, it's an All Women Are Queens day. Who wouldn't think that's a good idea?]}

As someone from Ul'dah it's especially special, thanks to the tale of its founding! So, I've decided it's my duty as a Lalafellian lady from Ul'dah to bring it to all the ladies here! It's a day to dress up in your finest garments for a day out, eat tasty treats and best of all be attended to all day by a loyal seneschal.

_{[If you want something you've got to make it happen yourself, which seems to be the case here with Tataru. What a busybody...does she ever chill out? (The answer is no.)]}

I've already been in talks with local establishments who seem willing to participate if celebrations are held later on in the upcoming weeks, but their support won't be enough. It may be a day for ladies, but without dashing men to play their part any organizing I do will be for naught.

So! _{[She jumps off her chair, disappearing for a moment before the feed is adjusted and she can be seen again, this time far closer.]} Won't any men step up to the challenge and help this 'Little Lady' make her efforts successful? I'll be taking volunteers soon!

_{[And...that seems to be the end of it...only it's not.]}

Oh! And if anyone else would like to lend a helping hand in general I certainly wouldn't be opposed to it! There are still a few matters I'm trying to get in order, after all. Music, sweets...there's still much to be accounted for!

_{[OOC: Little Ladies' Day will be celebrated on the 22nd of March, as an addition to Eostre. Details and a proper sign-up will be posted at a later date on the OOC com for those who wish to sign their characters up for a bit of silly matchmaking/shenanigans to occur.]}

[stopfen]

No one's called me that before...

[still no]

[seemstressed]

What? A lady? _{[Incredulous.]} But that's what you are.

[stopfen]

I'm a solider.

[Even at parties, she was in full uniform. No fancy dress here.]

[seemstressed]

And? Soldiers are ladies too! Don't be ridiculous.

[stopfen]

[Enjoy your few seconds of grumpy huff, but before she can respond. Another message comes through. ]

... What is a seneschal exactly?

[She had a vauge idea but, to be sure ]

[seemstressed]

I suppose it's a bit like a steward? Someone who tends to others, but usually those of a higher standing in society.

[stopfen]

[Well now her own situation is dealt with.]

Oh, you're not going to have enough then.

[seemstressed]

_{[MIKASA ALLOW HIM]}

Well it's all for a bit of fun. They don't actually have to be one. Enthusiasm and a desire to put a smile on a lady's face is what's important.

[stopfen]

[He's trying so hard too.]

...Do I have to..?

[Enthusiasm! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°


It's not there at all...]

[seemstressed]

You absolutely have to!

[stopfen]

What happens if I don't?

[She might just be being annoying at this point.]

[seemstressed]

I'd be a bit sad to not have you celebrate with me.

[stopfen]

[don't you look up at her all cute and tiny like--Mikasa just sighs. ]

I don't see why it means so much.

[seemstressed]

The fact you can't see why it's important is exactly why you must participate!

_{[GIRL YOU NEED TO BE APPRECIATED...]}

[guesser]

Hey— Mikasa, can I be your seneschal?

[stopfen]

You're not qualified.

[Yep, that's what she takes of Tataru's explanation. And it's stated so plainly, there's not even the slight grumpy edge to her voice like before. Ha. ]

[guesser]

Come on, you haven't even seen my curriculum . . .

[ he's pretty high society where he's from, you know!! private school, latest iphone, these nikes . . . ]

[stopfen]

Does it involve talking out of your ass, again?

[Such a skill, wow.]

[guesser]

[ he laughs— though it sounds a bit like a squawk. ]

I can control myself.

[stopfen]

[Nintendo....What the actual fuck? It's a good job this is voice and not video cause her face was just...The fuck was that?]

...Are you sure about that?

[guesser]

[ comes with being the gremlin of psittaciformes ]

About trying? Yes. Success rates, now those may vary. [ because tendou is honest. ] But it'll be your day, not mine! You can reel those rates back up in a snap.

[stopfen]

About controlling yourself...

[Nintendo please.]

[guesser]

[ —she didn't get it. ok, ok. ]

Yes.

[stopfen]

I'm not going fishing with you.... [Yep, that's how she interpreted that bit of madness. But he did seem fit enough, and he was offering... ]

What can you do exactly? [whatever, she'll just have an errand boy for the day. It's calm Tataru down. ]

[guesser]

[ literal as always . . . it's refreshing. ]

Probably anything you want me to! M' a terrific guesser, remember that? Then there's volleyball— that's a sport! Collecting cicada shells . . . Oh, and I doodle here and there, too! Actually— [ he has an idea!!! ] Give me a second!
