harlowe lets out a light scoff and shakes their head . “ what event in LA doesn’t scream potential pr night ? ” they’ll ask rhetorically . hell , the reason why they’re here is specifically because of pr reasons . sure they got the invite , but if it weren’t for the insistence of both their manager and pr manager , would they really be here ? “ then i guess beverly media can call me trashy for the costume i chose , ” gestures to their patrick bateman getup . raincoat and bedazzled blood splatter makeup included ! “ you think i’d get brownie points for choosing someone who isn’t a masked maniac ? just a fictional maniac from a satirical horror movie ? ”
who: open!

"does this whole event scream potential pr night to you or is it just me?" everett mused to the person closest to him. negative gossip in people magazine frightened him more than potentially getting posioned. "beverly media could easily spin people dressing up as murderous masked maniacs when there's an alleged murderous masked maniac on the loose as trashy and in poor taste." he mused. everett had enough of people who spent too much time on deuxmoi thinking he was a selfish monster. they had a point but it wasn't because he happened to fuck someone who hadn't signed his divorce papers yet.

“ i doubt that's the case , nalini . anyone who is making fantastic designs such as you , will always be entertaining enough to stay in the spotlight . ” though , she appreciates the humble response . grasping onto her beverage to take a small sip before proceeding with the conversation , “ oh , didn't princess diana do that for awhile ? i swear i've read that somewhere . regardless , that's something i'll have to keep in mind . . . though sometimes , i'll admit , i do enjoy it . ”

was the letter from vigilante creepy as hell ? yes . but nalini will be damned if they let some masked killer stop them from living their life . besides , they’ve listened to enough true crime podcasts to know to never let their guard down . and for now , there’s a halloween party in full swing . and if they can’t fully enjoy their time , what was the point of attending in the first place ?
nimble fingers grasp the stem of the cocktail glass as hips sway to the beat of the music . “ aww thank you ! ” free hand reaches out to grab sapphire’s as a friendly gesture . “ i was a little worried that i wouldn’t get it done in time but i think i did a decent job , ” laughter expels past the designer’s lips as they display their elaborate poison ivy costume . complete with the perfect ruby red wig . “ but enough about me ! ” lets go to wave their hand dismissively . “ you look FABULOUS . and i think you’ve captured the essence of diana ross . if someone thinks that the totally spies jumpsuit is sparkly and sequined … i’ll have to question if they’ve even watched the show . ”
who: open!
where: halloween party @ bootsy bellows
the letter had put sapphire on edge but she wasn't going to let some anonymous weirdo stop her from having a good time. partying was one of sapphire's favourite things in the whole world. she loved to dance, she loved the light airy feeling of being tipsy and she loved that it was socially acceptable to talk to everyone like she was their best friend. halloween parties also came with the added excitement of costumes. sapphire's costume was a recreation of a purple sparkly jumpsuit worn by diana ross. she was eager to show it off while having the best night of her life.
"you look amazing!",she greeted the other person. the cocktail she was holding matched her outfit. "i love costume parties but i'm always nervous nobody is going to get my reference. it's like what if somebody thinks i'm wearing a totally spies jumpsuit that's the wrong colour? do you get what i mean?" sapphire asked, gesturing for emphasis.
“ that is honestly the sweetest thing i have ever heard ! ” lips turn up into a small smile at the compliment . a genuine smile at that . for nalini is a girl’s girl and there’s always something about women ( and non-men ) complimenting each other that always gets her feeling some type of way . “ has anyone told you that you’re absolutely breathtaking ? like just show stopping ? ”

they barely get a chance to glance up from their sketchpad before the other is seated across from them . “ that’s the paparazzi for you , ” nalini comments with a light chuckle . “ i’d like to think i’m a little too boring for them but who knows ? ” they’ll admit . but then again , nalini is nothing if not strategic about how they position themselves in the public . “ i heard there’s a trick where if you wear the same clothes everyday –– or at least the same outerwear , they can’t profit off any of the photos they take . ”

“ is anyone else sitting here ? ” doesn't wait for an answer as she extends the chair , adjusting herself comfortably while setting her matcha latte upon the table . “ you're a breath of fresh air — the paparazzi outside were about to drive me nuts . ”
“ cats are known to be able to mimic humans . but i think in this case , buttercup just doesn’t like you . i hate to break it to you , felix . i don’t know if there’s any way you can win her over . did you try bribing her with treats ? ”
