OK, I don't normally show the stuff I get from Retrospec on the app unless it is REALLY weird (ex. the owl and the accent). But THIS! THIS IS SO COOL! IT'S A MAGIC FLYING BROOMSTICK! And it's apparently a Nimbus 2001 (no idea if that is a model number or year make) and man it is fast! Can we all just admire the the sleekness of this broom, the foot holds, and I'm pretty sure there is some kind of magical cushion so it doesn't hurt to sit on it!

Yes and Yes!

OMG. CAN I RIDE IT? OR WILL YOU GIVE ME A RIDE? _

[blondferret]

I think you need actual magic to ride it and control it. From one of my memories, not all wizards can control a broom. As for giving you a ride? I don't know... maybe when I know you better? I mean, I'm greatful for you fixing my bear and all but... I still don't know you that well.

[dornen_kiste]

Oh haha that’s fair! ^^; Sorry I just got so excited because it’s so cool! I never imagined something like that could be real. Speaking of - how’s your bear doing?

[blondferret]

Much better now that he is whole again. Thank again!

[dornen_kiste]

Not at all! I am glad I could help! If you ever want a new outfit for him, just let me know ~_^ I could make you a matching one too, hehe :P

[blondferret]

I'm good. But thanks for the offer. If any of my friends need someone with sewing skills can I refer them to you?

[dornen_kiste]

Oh, yes, absolutely! I would love that. Actually, if you know of any women who would like to model, I could use one or two for my current project. Or boys who want to model dresses. I mean either would work, though technically the dresses are made more for a female form...

[blondferret]

I don't know anyone personally who is interested in modelling, but if I hear anything I'll tell them about you.

[dornen_kiste]

Aah, thank you! It would be a really big help! I do have one more male piece I could use a model for, if you want to give it a go ;)

[blondferret]

Are you serious?

[Derek is not unfamiliar with the concept of being a model. He did model for the police charity Christmas calendar in November.]

[dornen_kiste]

Yeah, totally! I have three male designs for this latest project, and I think it would definitely go over better with a variety of models. You wouldn't have to wear it in front of class or anything. I would just take some pictures of you in the outfit.

[blondferret]

I suppose that would be fine. Besides, you fixed my bear. So, I owe you one.

[dornen_kiste]

Really, you don't owe me for that! Like I said, I could help so I wanted to. Buuuut if that reasoning will get you to model for me, I won't say no either ~

[blondferret]

I walked myself right into that didn't I? Fine, I'll help. As long as the clothes don't look absolutely ridiculous, and by that I mean I don't want to feel like I'm a walking Picasso painting.

[dornen_kiste]

Well, I don't think my pieces look like Picasso did them. He did have a very nice period though, before his cubism stuff.

_{[ He likes art, okay? It was one of his better subjects in school and he often found inspiration in paintings and the colors and textures of the paints. ]}

[blondferret]

True, his pre cubism period was fine. But, yeah, I'll model for you. Just let me know where and when.

[dornen_kiste]

Yay, thank you Derek!! What's your work schedule like? Though now that I think about it, i don't even know what you do for work...

[blondferret]

I'm a CSI at the Recolle Crime Labs. I'm get off of work at 5pm most days unless I have a heavy case load.

[dornen_kiste]

Whoa! CSI?! That's so cool!!! :O

[blondferret]

Yeah, it is. Work is pretty satisfying.

[Wow Derek, you're so humble...]

[dornen_kiste]

So you help solve crimes with science and stuff, right?

[blondferret]

Yes, that's the general idea. I deal mainly with blood work and various poisons.

[dornen_kiste]

Poisons-!! Does that happen a lot? People getting... poisoned?

[blondferret]

More often than you think. There are some pretty nasty poisons out there kid.
