I like the zootux.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
What kat says is true. I have met very few boys under, say, 25, who could look comfortable in a tuxedo, or even a suit. Partly I think it is the skinniness factor, i.e. many boys look too small for their clothes even when they are in the right size; but partly, it is just that they aren't wearing their own clothes, and it shows.
Now, I knew a kid in the 8th grade who had his own tailored suit, and wore it to a school function once. He looked like a tiny mafioso, and the suit absolutely suited him (I mean, except inasmuch as it made him look like a mafioso).

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
We can't decapitate major crazy smartasses?
It would be suicidal, in this group.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Lovely. The Tainted Love earworm has been replaced by Cherry Poppin' Daddies' Zoot Suit Riot.
Toe-tapping is in progress.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This is where my lack of acculturation serves me well. Aside from the narrowly avoided disaster of that one cousin, the prom stuff I've seen has either been HAWT (nothing skinny about this dude), or on TV, so it was okay.
Would you say that the teenaged girls look better in formal wear than the boys? Perhaps it's because they're less funny.

I'm a fan of a good zoot suit, but that's not one.
I'll take the earworm, though.

Well, thanks to the zoot suit curiousity this discussion sparked I know know how I'll dress if I should get a job as a demon postmortem.
Also, got a peek at how David Boreanaz will look in 40 years.

Spooky. And yet so, so true.

Is it wrong that the Six Flags dancing music started playing in my head as soon as I saw that outfit?
