I've decided to make you my new project

Who: Rarity (

coolstriderbro)
Where: Rarity's ~~boutique~~ room.
When: Early afternoon on 3/5.
Rating: PG
Summary: Rarity is a fashionista, and she's decided that the mansion residents all need fashion makeovers. Her first target is one Bro Strider.
The Story:

Rarity was prancing about her room in very high spirits. She was going to give the human she talked to earlier the best makeover ever!

She made sure that all her sewing and decorating supplies were in precise order, because it would not do to have things be in disarray. This was going to be her first attempt to give a human a fashion makeover, and it was important that she leave a good impression.

Not that she was worried. With her record back home in Ponyville and even in Canterlot, how could she disappoint?

She hummed a merry tune as she did some last-minute straightening up. Her special guest would arrive soon, and this was going to be the best day of their lives. She was certain of it.

Bro wasn't really sure what to expect about this. There was something pretty whack about getting made-over by a pony but this was Wonderland. Crazy shit was pretty much the norm.

And so he made his way to her room, late enough to be fashionably so and with Cal in tow. He found it unlikely she could do much to improve on so much natural charm and charisma but she seemed to be up for the challenge and who was he to take that from her?

He knocked on the door, leaning against the nearby wall as he waited to be invited in.

Rarity's ears perk up when she hears the knock on the door. She opens it and enthusiastically greets Bro. "Well, hello! Come in!"

She doesn't even mind that he's late. It is very fashionable. "Everything's ready for you, Mr. Strider!"

"Well, hello yourself."

Bro walks in, scanning the room from behind his shades. Not a bad set-up at all, not that he'd know a bad one if he saw one.

"You figured out the whole room-changing mojo alright then?"

"And how are you, my dear?"

Don't think anything of Rarity's use of pet names. She does it to everyone.

And oh, he seems to approve of her decorating! How wonderful! But of course, Rarity didn't expect anything else, since decorating is one of her many talents.

"Why, of course! I simply couldn't stand living in such a drab and colorless room. It had to be redecorated, and I think the result is simply stunning, if I do say so myself."

"Oh, you know. Chill as always."

Bro's the last to get concerned over pet names, given as that would imply getting flustered over nothing and he's too cool for that.

"Well, figure it's an easy fix when the mansion does it all for you. But I guess it can't give you taste you don't have, so kudos to you for that."

"Well, being calm is good! I find I am at my best when I am relaxed, although relaxation is hard to come by when you are the most fashionable pony around!" Rarity sighs a small sigh. Such is the life of a fashionista like herself.

"Why thank you, Mr. Strider. You are most kind." Rarity allows herself a few seconds to enjoy the compliment, but there is business to attend to. It will not do to delay. "Now then, I must get your measurements." Her horn glows as she makes a measuring tape levitate and unwind before them.

Her unicorn magic may not be as strong as Twilight Sparkle's, but it is very useful nonetheless.

"Pretty hard not to be chilled out when you got this much natural cool. Pretty much just gotta accept that you're the best and roll with it."

Which, after all, applies as much to her as it does to him.

The magic measuring tape is a little on the weird side but he's seen weirder; he's just going to let her do her thing and just wait to be told what she needs from him.

"That's absolutely right!" She exclaims as she putters around with her magic measuring tape. Then she asks him a question. "So, Mr. Strider, what are your favorite colors?" It's a very important question, really.

He shrugs. "I dunno. Tend to stick to the strict monochrome, you know? Leave the colourful shit to Cal and the smuppets."

Well, that certainly complicates things. But Rarity is definitely up for the challenge. "I see! Well, you know, this would be simpler if you preferred blue or green, but I'm certain I can make this work." She has no idea what smuppets are, and she doesn't ask, but she does file that away for later.

Time for a few more questions. She assumes that Bro is a casual dresser, but it's best to ask anyway. "Do you prefer casual wear or something a little more fancy?"

He raises an eyebrow there. "Didn't say I wasn't open to change, did I?"

At her next question, another shrug. "Depends on the occasion, you know? Swag this high can make anything work." He pauses a moment. "But the shades stay put. Other than that, knock yourself out."

Rarity can't help but smile. Bro is making this so much simpler than she had expected he would. "All right, then!" She makes her way around him then, still poking about with her measuring tape. It isn't long before she's satisfied, and the measuring tape starts to fold itself up and float back over to Rarity's dresser.

"So, Mr. Strider, I think what you need is a line of casual clothes and something special for fancy occasions." She tosses her head, letting her perfectly coiffed mane flare out. "I'm certain that all of it will be simply divine. And of course I will take your eyewear into consideration." She beams excitedly at him. For her first project in this new place, it's off to a wonderful start.

She's a pony and she's cute, why would Bro make this difficult for her?

He nods at her assessment, moving to lean against a nearby wall. "Not sure how many fancy occasions we get in a place like this but it'd be just like the mansion to spring something on us where we have to get all gussied up."

That is some brilliant logic right there. Who can resist a cute pony, after all?

"Exactly! And it's perfect, because my friend Pinkie wants to throw a party for everyone in the mansion. I'll make something absolutely stunning for you and anyone else is interested." The thought that she's setting herself up to bite off more than she can chew hasn't occurred to her quite yet.

That earns her a curious look from him. "Pinkie? You mean another of you guys has rocked up here? Man, we're tripping all over all of these ponies here."

She can't help but grin. Having Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie with her makes this place feel a lot more like home. "Absolutely! Pinkie Pie loves parties, and she's determined to have one."

"That so? Well then I better be getting an invite."

He's teasing, mostly. He sort-of doesn't want to be the weird old guy at a party full of kids but at the same time ponies and besides, it was about time they had some non-mansion-dictated fun around here.

"Oh, of course! How could I not give you an invitation? Consider yourself the first one to be invited."

She beams at him, her mind already spinning with plans for the party. It's going to be simply wonderful.

"First on the list, huh? Well I'm glad to hear it."

Not that he expected it. He's not quite so arrogant that he thinks he can be top priorities for ponies he's only just met. But he still has a reputation to uphold.

"Feel free to invite your friends! What good is a party without guests?" Rarity knows she doesn't know many people in the mansion, though she is determined to change that. Any help she can get is appreciated, however.

"Got no guests, got no business calling yourself a party."

Not that Bro has many people to invite but he'll pass word onto Dave and let it filter through from there.

"Exactly! I knew you would understand."

Rarity is all smiles just thinking about how great this party is going to be. Now she needs to run off and find Pinkie Pie to actually start planning. And somewhere in all of that, she has to design Bro's new wardrobe and dresses for her friends.

She's going to be one busy pony.

"Well, Mr. Strider, thank you so much for your help!"

He tips his cap to her, smirking just a little. "Any time. Just let me know when you need me back."
