            it still feels awkward being in this form along with wearing a dress and heels.  but i do really love how i look﹗  and make-up﹖  (..)  hm,  oh alright why not.  just make sure not to put too much on me okay﹖

            〝  of course ＂ was all he gently said with a soft smile in response before he carefully held onto the pinkette's trembling hand.  laurent's own thumb rubbed soothing circles over the back of françois' palm as if trying to ease his frightened state〝  it's alright françois,  it's just me.  i promise i won't let anything come to harm you so long as i'm by your side okay﹖ ＂

the shortness of his breath persists.  as lips pressed thinly,  françois attempts to compose himself properly at that moment.  yet finds it difficult,  as he slowly began to feel light on his feet⸺  a nauseous feeling,  he had gotten rather pale as well. ⠀"  could you..  please hold my hand?  " ⠀the free hand is trembling,  reaching out for laurent to take.

            〝  there's no need to go apologizing now ＂ laurent softly said as his arms switched their positioning to make it so he could get up at seeing the other back away.  he was concerned for françois and wanted to comfort him,  but he couldn't bring himself to move towards the pinkette out of worry that he might startle him in his frazzled state〝  just say the word if you want me to come closer and i will alright﹖ ＂

@cuIinaries,       [before she could even apprehend him,  her twin had already charged through the doors.  it wasn't often for the circus members to freely roam,  but when they are;  most of them take full advantage.]    thank you,  he's always been more of a foodie than me.

⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀　 ────　　　( 　@fleshrots 　)
            there's no need to apologize dear.  i actually find it charming how excited he seems to be over just being in a restaurant

@cuIinaries,      i'm alright.  i have a performance soon,  i would rather not get a cramp.    [amélie answers,  a smile drawn to her lips as she brings the glass of water closer.  offering gratitude with the slight bow of her head.]     do you own this restaurant?

⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀　 ────　　　( 　@fleshrots 　)
            that is completely fine.  though there's also regular food that we serve here in case you are ever feeling hungry.  just let me know if you'd like that

[  a pleasant hum,  he nods until the segyein had excused himself.  in the meantime,  françois patiently waited.  as minutes have passed by,  the eager chef returns with his signature exuberance.  ] ⠀my,  you seem so delighted.  you must have put poison in it,  poor me. ⠀[  quipped françois.  ]

            a taste that suits you perfectly if i do say so myself.  now if you'll excuse me for a brief moment,  i'll be going to get your request sorted out~  [  with a polite bow,  he had walked off in the direction to the restaurant's kitchen in order to do as he had mentioned.  there even seemed to be a small yet subtle skip in his step as he left that was present if looked at closely  ]

i'm open to suggestions.  but if you really do like to know,  then  ..  i quite enjoy a flavourful and rich taste.  though,  not too powerful.  more–so balanced.

the way you simply handle these circumstances are commendable.  you have my praise.（..）i don't understand,  though.  it doesn't seem like you've wronged them no?

⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀　 ────　　　( 　@tailoried 　)
            actual results seem to disprove their false claims and rumors a majority of the time.  so that's the approach i choose to take instead when dealing with them

you just let them say so?  hm,  you're too kind laurent.

this one goes here my dear. ⠀[  he corrects the mistake,  and untied the knot which was ribboned wrongly by the front⸺ in which he brings it to his back.  afterwards,  he adjusts the unsteady cloth to make it more proper.  and with that,  he contentedly harrumphs.  ] ⠀there we go,  we're all done.

⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀　 ────　　　( 　@tailoried  　)
            i wouldn't have thought of this as a mishap if it wasn't for you pointing out what was wrong.  i'm truly grateful  [  he later did as was instructed and properly turned around,  his posture becoming morw upright once his back was facing françois  ]

yes,  oh goodness.. ⠀[  sighing,  françois pinches the bridge of his nose.  rather than feeling dissapointed,  it made him laugh at such a predicament.  ] ⠀you're so fortunate that no one has seen you like this.  you poor thing,  turn around.  i'll fix it for you.

[  now isn't he simply a bundle of joy?  he's so..  different.  far from any other segyein that had taken a step in his boutique.  yet,  it's a good kind of change.  ] ⠀i do like how you've already got a vision in mind,  makes things so much easier as well.  with this much effort? ⠀[  perusing to the sketches and notes,  a content hum reverberated.  ] ⠀i can tell that you're dedicated with your job.

⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀　 ────　　　( 　@tailoried 　)
            you're so kind to say that of me  [  a light shade of red could be seen dusted along his face as he smiled  ]  and you will﹖  oh that makes me so happy﹗  [  he was quick to scour through the bag he had brought,  him seemingly very excited as he took out what looked to be a sketchbook before proudly presenting it to the other  ]  in here are some sketches and notes for design ideas i was thinking of﹗  please look through them and give me your thoughts﹗..  at your own leisure though of course haha..

i expected differently,  is all.  segyeins are loathsome and disgusting creatures.（...ugh.）oh⸺  not you though. ⠀[  his repulsed expression softens with a smile.  ] ⠀i think i'll make you an exception for now.

@cuIinaries,        (as if he would rush to begin with.  however,  white rose is efficient now with changing.  this wasn't the first time killing another segyein,  and it most certainly won't be the last.  slowly,  he discards the bloodied fabric into the trash bag.  coming out the door new,  clean,  and polished.)    thank you,  laurent.  i'll repay you in due time.

⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀　 ────　　　( 　@fourclov4r 　)
            take all the time you need,  there's no point in rushing after all~  [  he advised the other before he had left through the backdoor that led back into the restaurant.  once he was sure the other was gone,  he began to steadily clean up the mess that was left behind,  him making a few trips back and forth in order to do so  ]

@cuIinaries,     (eyes flicker to the hand.  the smile falters,  and a bit perplexing because such soft affection was unnatural.  the erasure of any blood on his flesh made his skin crawl.  and for a moment,  it felt like his chest was in pain as his cheeks flush.)     alright,    (white rose answers,  perhaps awkward enough before brushing aside from the other.  opening the door,  and sliding past it so he could switch into a new pair of clothes.)

            everyone regardless of their upbringing is reduced to the same level once the concept of death is hanging over their heads.  i can only shake my head in disappointment at seeing them act so desperately to avoid dying when it was their own actions that caused their demise

@cuIinaries,        (the action perplexed the segyein.  he had no explanation towards it,  careless affection didn't mean much to him.)    it's fun,  interesting.  such powerful people crawling around like maggots when they know they'll die.

            never as far as i'm aware~  it was just a rhetorical question anyways,  no need to reply  [  a light pat to white rose's head was given  ]  though i could never imagine being put in your shoes.  it sounds like a lot of hassle to deal with on the daily
