[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Oh, GC, that's good.

Calli does not lie - it is indeed snowing. I canceled my pickup of stuff and am thinking about leaving early so I can get to KBD's safely. Any time there is Weather, we can take off work and just have to make it up within 6 months. Of course the makeup rules are assy, but it's doable.

sj, your nephew is darling.

Send him to me, I love redheads!

Hey, I have a long-haired, redheaded pagan guyfriend who I could send you. He's a sweetie.

So, who wants to help me decide on a corset style? A very talented corset maker has decided to GIVE me a custom corset. Some examples of her work: [link]

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Well, we know what color(s) you'll want.

These are the ideas the designer came up with for me:

My first thought is to make you an underbust in your colours with your bat motif for the Gothic Charm School. I thought something in black with the logo done all in crystals. I thought of this as this would be something you could wear to events/readings for GCS to help promote it further. Then I thought that I could do an overbust of the Ribcage corset but in pink and either silver/ivory bones with the crystal detailing. And instead of the aorta I could put a very elaborate, intricate cupcake. I also have been thinking since it seems that you wear quite a few vests/jackets of combining your love of vests into a corset vest.

Jilli, I like the Ivy Overbust of the ones in her lj. That's so cool that she's giving you a corset! I want someone to give me a corset!

eta oooo, she has wonderful ideas. I like the logo or cupcake concepts.

The ribcage cupcake corset idea just tickles me no end. I like the logo idea, too, but ... ribcage! With a cupcake instead of a heart!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, both the ideas from the designer are pretty brilliant. I think I am leaning towards the bat, because as great as the cupcake design it sounds like if you didn't know about the Ribcage corset it's a reference to it might be a little more befuddling. Which is okay, too. But, dude, sparkly swirly bat corset? Awesome.

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

I want someone to give me a corset!

Oh, to be an icon. But could we live up to the hype the way Jilli does?
