Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Point of information: What is a broomstick skirt? (I think I want one. I assume it's what one wears when one flys on a broomstick.)

The ragged edge skirt does rock. I'm just not sure I own the right top for it.

Do you *need* to wear a top with it?

That might tip it from sexy to downright slutty. On the other hand, it might help the date issue...

But see, ita, you're going to see lots of people! All social and partying! I had one date. And she was 90 minutes late. And I don't anticipate a second one.

Good point, meara. I don't think ita wants to look slutty.

Nevermind. You need a top.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

More like a skirt you bind around a broomstick when wet to get the teensy vertical wrinkles. This isn't a strict broomstick skirt, but has the same effect due to the cunning use of artificial fibres. This isn't the skirt, just a skirt.

I think the short ragged one would look more fetching on the stick.

I had not considered not wearing a top. ::pause:: I'm still not considering it.

eta:

And I don't anticipate a second one.

Fair point. Of course I can't remember the last time I was even in that position, so there you go.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

ita, don't you have a shiny tank top type thing that would work?

I AM WATCHING TV!!!!!

don't you have a shiny tank top type thing that would work?

Or something that involves little spaghetti straps? Maybe backless? Or what's wrong with teh cap-sleeve thing you wanted to wear with the green skirt?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

90 minutes late, meara?? HMOG. There wouldn't have been a first date, had it been me.

I have no clothing advice for ita.

Yeah, see...she called several times during that period. If there had been no call I would've left after 20. But she's all "Oh, I had to go on a call at the firehouse, so I'm running late...". She's a motorcycle-riding firefighter/EMT and beekeeper. It's an interesting combo. Sadly, doesn't quite work for me, I think.
