Yeah we really need to cut off his scarf habit.
How do you think he would take it if we just snuck in and replaced all his clothes one day?

[borntoolate]

It is totally relevant!
If people were dressing like that twenty years ago then it doesn't count.

[rygdea]

Unless you want us to end up on the 11 o'clock news, I don't reccomend it!

[judicatus]

[ oh, now that makes him choke. ]

Twenty??? Good god I'm not *that* old

[borntoolate]

But we'd be replacing them with better clothes!
It's doing him a favor.

[borntoolate]

Okay got it.
Fifteen years then?

[Now she's just being a brat.]

[rygdea]

Listen, even I wouldn't be as daring as to suddenly change Ardyn's wardrobe. That odd man loves his clothes as they are. As silly as this sounds, the only thing we can do is suggest he doesn't wear his fedora everywhere.

[legne]

Of course! Some aesthetics are simply impenetrable to mortal minds.

Maybe it could become a new subculture. Imagine it: hundreds of grim dandies, newly emboldened, striding down the street.

[true_noir]

I could only assume. You've gone this far, so he must be quite the stubborn sort to some extent at the very least. Nobody who is not requires this much effort.

[liberal_arts]

Public shaming? An excellent strategy. Any good results so far?

[longwei2go]

im gonna go with no

because no hobo stitches their kit together with leather belts

now if he wanted to switch them out with rayon backpack straps then i know a guy who knows a guy

[puffing]

I wasn't. Being literal.
I think you passed it on the moment you put up this survey?
Not that I'm complaining. At all, really.
This is great material.

[antagonize]

So he dug his own grave. Nice.

[frostythehitman]

Sure, whatever.

Looking like a garbage can full of the circus's dumped costume department is a look too, if that's what he likes in life.

[daemonized]

IS the poll perfect, though?

"No for some reason."

[This speaks for itself?]

[okitactless]

Yasusada Yamato well he's got clothes on, doesn't he? so it's fine

[twelfthspark]

You're the hero we deserve.

[hjack69]

yknow i cant exactly remember
kinda like people who say they got abducted by aliens once? like i KINDA think it happened but i cant be sure and i dont wanna get dragged if im wrong and the paisley was a myth
obv the only answer is to break into his house and look thru his closet

[ well that escalated quickly. ]

[covenantal]

Is there something wrong with alternative couture?

[openhanded]

I thought it was a cape

that doesn't make it any better does it

I mean I would totally wear a cape if I had the opportunity but still

[darkinferno]

glad you like it, feel free to use it yourself

honestly i'd probably laugh if he started hearing it from more corners

[Dante is definitely his favorite student, don't you know. Especially after coming up with that descriptor!]

[judicatus]

Cheeky, aren't you

[ FINE. fine he will admit it. even though it just might kill him...... it might!!! ]

More like ten, if you absolutely must know.

[tearable]

I mean, that's also fair.

I can't argue against that.

[parodeity]

so THIS is what he wears the hat with
he didnt give me the details when he asked me if fedoras were fashionable

[rebelsoul]

Yet how long will you hold sway?
