Video | Open to Both Courts

[ The video shows a slender young man in tattered Japanese robes. On his head is an open face mask of a dog made from paper and thread, its mane reaching up to the small of the man's back. ]

These monsters aside, this is the nicest kidnapping I've ever been to. It's been days and I have yet to be drugged, beaten or sold into slavery. [ Considering what his life was like, this is seriously a step up. ] But clothes might not last these attacks, so if I start walking around naked please refrain from pointing or grabbing at my manly spirit. I'm actually quite shy. [ Shiro said, as he smiled boldly. ]

Is there a place in this world for an umbrella maker to gather materials for his craft? I used most of what I could find for this mask. I'm mostly in need of colored paper, paints, oil, lacquer, and bamboo.

[~~no nevr~~] I meant as a kilt.

[ If it wilts in shame and falls off, it's all your fault. ] What's a kilt?

Like half a robe. The bottom half. Ya wear 'em like pants.

[ gasp! ] Do I have to wear anything on top or underneath? How long is it?

[Such enthusiasm! It manages to startle him into silence for a second.] No?

[A beat.] They however long you want 'em to be, mon. Ya don't have ta wear anything under them. Most go to ya ankles or knees.

[YOU KNOW THAT MOMENT WHEN YOU REALIZE YOUR LIFE STOPPED MAKING SENSE? That is this moment, for him. He's in Drabwurld educating kid-faced human nudists on clothes. What has his life become?]

[ It's an excuse to call a strip of cloth "clothing". How could he not be excited? Thank you, Kilt Master for teaching him the ways of the kilt. He will put his own spin on it and call it "kiltmono"

But wait-- ]

Does it look anything like a skirt?

[A snort.] Don't tell me ya be worried about that?

[Then, as if to ease that worry:] A skirt's flimsier.

You've seen my pretty face. I don't wanna be mistaken for a girl. [ It happens a lot. ]

So it's hard?

Heard ya voice, too. Don't think there's much chance of that. [Although, yeah, he's definitely less of a brick-face than most of the male human he's met. Of course, Azerothian humans just kind tend to be boxy in general.

Of course, he doesn't think Shiro's full grown, either. Not bricky enough.] Ya grow into it, when ya older.

If it was hard, ya couldn't move. It's heavy cloth, sometimes light leather. Ya can walk in it, fight in it...

Ya really never seen that before?

[ Wait, is he being treated like a child? And he didn't have to play the "I'm a poor boy from the streets" card? That's... kind of refreshing, actually.

He's still going to groan about it. ]

... and flash people with it? [ Can he still flash people with it? ]

Never seen one before. I don't get out much.

[He laughs. Sure, flash your little nudist's heart out, kid. He probably shouldn't be encouraging that, but what the fuck ever, man.]

Sure--jus' depends on how ya sit. [There's an implied "if you're into that kind of thing."]

Comfortably. [ And let's leave it like that, with no stories about how once upon a time, a police officer tied his legs together to prevent Shiro from scandalizing the general public. ]

If it flaps in the wind, is it still a kilt?

[Humming thoughtfully:] Flaps how?

--Wait, ya talking about the material flappin', yeah?

'es. What if the wearer [ obviously him ] wanted a cool breeze between his balls?

There's enough room for that, yeah.

I think they make clothes, somewhere down in the lower levels. Couldn't tell ya where...

Right. I'll tell people that I'm naked because that nice stranger couldn't tell me where to pick up my man skirt.

[A chuckle.]

Somehow, I get the impression that ya wouldn't mind bein' naked.

Ya can ask the imps where. Or fairies? Where are ya, anyhow?

[ seriously ] I'm in the castle that looks like a tacky porn dungeon.

[Ah. "Tacky" translates, kinda, "porn" is a big question mark, but "dungeon" make is pretty obvious. Unless, of course, the Seelie ALSO live in a very large, expensive knockoff of Undercity.]

Imps, then.

[ Don't worry, Shiro will gladly explain what porn is if asked! It's the least he can do after being introduced to kilts. ]

That's the one. Don't tell them I need new clothes, okay?

[Oh, not to worry, he's bound to get a text at some point about it. Not at the moment, but some time.]

Yeah, If ya like.
