    ♡ ♡ ♡ Alexa's weekly task was to set up a nail painting area, though the femme had been busy she found time to collect lots of different nail polishes. She hoped people would come to her salon because she had been practising on herself for quite a long time. Her claws were coloured with purples, pinks, blues, red and all colours she had. "Hey eveyone! I'm setting up a nail salon! Anyone want to get pampered and have their nails polished?" she shouted out, hoping people would turn up soon

    [fancypost=border-width:0px; width: 450px; text-align: justify; font-size: 8pt; line-height: 125%]A nail salon? That sounded like something Eggpaw would definitely enjoy, and the boy padded into Alexa's little nail painting area, smiling brightly towards her. "I would, s'il vous plaît. Please, that is. What colours do you have?"

    Ashpaw followed behind Eggpaw, unsure of where he was headed. Upon realizing what it was he was going to, he walked right over next to his larger friend. It was too late to turn back - he was in for a ride. "Heh, maybe this'll be fun. I don't think I've ever been 'pampered' before. I bet you have, though, right Eggie?" Thankfully, the other apprentice seemed like a seasoned pro.


    Alastor "The Phantom"

    If there was one thing Alastor hated, it was being touched. It made him spark memories of his past, the loners violently grabbing hold of him to stop him from resisting them, his parents treating him horribly for his face. It was already a known fact that Alastor did not like getting touched, not only did he say that as one of his answers in his q&a session, but when Ivylee tried to hug him, it wasn't even a second when he pushed her away. The masked panther would pad into the scene, following his guard, who seemed quite interested. Alastor would easily distant himself from the rest of the people gathered around, his guard sitting next to him, gently nudging the male. The Phantom would slowly look over at his guard, to see it staring down at his paws.


    Alastor quickly looked down, realizing what his guard was trying to suggest. Alastor's claws were currently extended, there were barely any instance where they were retracted. The Phantom would shake his head quickly, speaking up to his guard, "No. No way."

    [center][fancypost=border-width:0px; width: 450px; text-align: justify][size=8]Being pampered was a lovely thought to the snow white clouded leopard but she also wasn't too comfortable with strangers currently to allow for them to touch her. Still she wanted to get out more and at least grow to be comfortable and be herself again. She was more worried than she liked to be and she sighed softly before pushing herself to her paws, immaculate white fur waving gently in the light breeze that was set upon them. Her rapier was against her side as she slowly made her way over, eyes flicking over the group. Watching would be good and perhaps she could meet some new characters since this place seemed ever changing. "I think I'll just watch for now. But it does seem like a good idea."

    "Oh, honey." Frank cooed as he sauntered over. He quite enjoyed a good pampering, especially when it's been awhile. But usually his idea of a relaxing night involved candles, wine, and another person... Blinking the thought off, the rather large tortoiseshell took a seat, extending his claws. "Count me in." He sing-songed.

    Every breath that you take has meaning...

    Now this was another new occurrence for the female. She'd never had her nails painted, nor had she ever seen anybody with their nails painted. But it was certainly interesting to think about. Shrugging to herself, she decided to pad forward and participate. However, as she approached, she saw Alastor arguing with his guard. Something about the male had made the pup very curious. He seemed withdrawn and unhappy, something she didn't like to see others as. Beelining over to him and his guard, she flashed a smile to the sullen male. "Hey Alastor. You gonna get your nails painted?"

    ...You are here for a reason.

    [fancypost=border-width:0px; width: 450px; text-align: justify; font-size: 8pt; line-height: 125%]Seeing his friend approach the nail painting area as well, Eggpaw smiled a small grin of surprised amusement. He certainly hadn't pegged Ashpaw as someone who would enjoy this sort of thing, but it just showed that you shouldn't make assumptions about people, didn't it? He wasn't surprised that Ashpaw hadn't done anything like this before- in fact, he hadn't expected 'pampering' to be a thing outside of the city, certainly not this far out into the wilderness. "Indeed, yes! I went with my mother to many different salons and such. It's not for everyone, but I find them enjoyable." Speaking of not being for everyone, there were two people passing up the pampering. He would never understand those types of people- Alexa wasn't even charging any sort of currency for it at all, but they still didn't want to. What a mystery.

    EXCUSE MY CHARISMA — 송하나, BIOGRAPHY & PLOT THREAD


    [center][fancypost=background: transparent; font-size: 10px; width: 500px; margin-top: -6px;][align=justify]/rushed ;w;


    Oh, no way!


    Of all the strange new customs that Hana had been introduced to, she had only run across a select few that she once participated herself. Hana almost could not believe that Alexa had put together a nail salon- the Korean was absolutely ecstatic. Pampering herself used to be almost ritual for her: painting her nails, decorating her face, thoroughly grooming her fur. When war became more common, it became a useless effort. She hadn't even considered trying it all again in BlizzardClan, but now that the opportunity was present, Hana fully intended on exploiting it. The chocolate and white Oriental mixbreed was present in no time, terracotta eyes wide as she rushed up wordlessly to Alexa and snatched a bottle of pink paint before quickly retreating back, taking a seat behind the crowd. The paint wasn't exactly for her claws, though: no, they were to bring back a part of what had once been so strongly tethered to her identity, no matter how brief it might remain. Lifting the brush up to her cheek, a smile gently pulled Hana's lips upwards as she moved based on memory alone, crafting four triangles, two on each side of her face. The points of the triangles pointed inward toward her nose, accentuating the smooth angles already present that crafted her head. Hana hummed contently as she moved to put the polish brush back the bottle, russet eyes finally flicking up to observe her surroundings.


    Most of those present were interested in participating, having snatched one thing or another and getting to work and pampering themselves and other Clanmates. One thing stood out in particular, however: a decorated panther being pestered not by one, but two other BlizzardClanners. One Hana recognized as Fadingmoon (whom Hana would have guessed also iddint' have to much interest in getting her nails done), the second one unidentifiable: they must've been Alastor's guard. The newly painted female wasted no time in rising to her paws and making her way toward the trio, figuring she might as well sit next to somebody before doing her nails and temporarily becoming immobile. "안녕," the Oriental feline greeted in a warm tone as she made her way over, smile mixed with nostalgia at the cold, slowly drying liquid on her cheeks. Not the ideal material for it, but to be honest, Hana was just happy to have it back on her. "Come on, Alastor," Hana sided with Fadingmoon quickly as she plopped unceremoniously into the snow next to them, placing the bottle of pink nail polish to the side as a silent offer toward the pup. "I'll even do them myself!" She offered brightly, lifting a paw to hide her snicker. "In a colour other than pink, if you really need some convincing."

    안녕, annyeong, hi/hello

    [center][fancypost= bgcolor= opacity: 0.5; borderwidth=0px; width: 450px;][font=times new roman][align=justify]Oh, this soundsd fun! Pierce would love to have some pretty, colored claws. Coming over after Hana, he suppressed a giggle at Alastor and the two females surrounding him and focused on Alexa. Would she do him? Perhaps nail polish wasn't the most masculine thing, but Pierce wasn't the most masculine person. "Can you do me, please? Any color you think would look nice works." He smiled as he said this, tail wagging happily. The serval's nose wrinkled slightly at the scent of the polish - it was quite strong - but his smile didn't fade at all. If anything, it broadened exciteably.

    ♡ ♡ ♡ Alexa turned to Eggpaw, smiling at him as he asked his question "We have all the colours of the rainbow! And black as well! What colour would you like?" she asked Eggpaw before turning to Ashpaw. "Same question to you, what colour do you want?"


    Alexa noticed Alastor walk in with his guard, he seemed to be unsure whether he wanted his nails painted because claws were out. " I can always do a nice dark black for you Alastor, or a blood red?" she said, kindly. In her opinion she thought Al could do with a nice bright pink or a purple but the femme thought she might scare him away if she suggested that.


    The tiger didnt know the femme who just walked in, but she was glad she didn't want her nails painted. The femme had quite a lot to do already and was feeling a bit overwhelmed


    Turning to Frank Alexa smiled. " Babe! What colour do you want, pink? Purple? Blue?" she asked Frank. She was glad he had turned up because maybe he could help her pick colours out to everyone.


    She then turned to Hana, who seemed to be encouraging Alastor to participate. "I can paint your nails the same colours if you want! They can be matching!" she exclaimed, hoping this would help make Alastor want to get involved.


    The tigress turned to Pierce, she thought hard about what colour would suit him before picking out a nice pastel blue. She proceeded to go up to Pierce and paint his nails one by one with immense precision. She wasn't going to mess this up, she would be perfect.


    The femme had asked everyone who wanted to participate what colours they wanted so she then lined up all the nail colours she had in a line so people could see there options.


    "Choose a colour and then come to me and I'll paint your nails!" she said again.

    Oh, that was a lot of colors. It would be an even more difficult decision if he sat here and overthought it, though, so Eggie quickly narrowed it down to a few and then picked his preference. "Maybe, like, pastel pink?"

    Hm. Mack always loved colors, and he still did. Interested, the half blind deputy approached, sitting down to wait. He really would've liked to paint his talons a nice color. They were long and curved, so it would take a lotta nail polish. Oh, well. "If you have time, do you think you could give me rainbow colored nails?"

    Ashpaw did not want to let his uncertainty become obvious. He feigned deep thought, shaking his head a couple of times. Finally, he sighed, then smiled with his eyes closed. "You know what? Surprise me!"

    TAKING MY TIME — sylmae w. — blizzardclan && visiting — piebald husky — she/her

    [fancypost=width: 450px; font-size: 8pt; line-height: 125%][align=justify]"I definitely want my nails done in gold when you have time. I think that'd be quite fitting. It'll match my wings." Mae giggled lightly as she padded forward and settled down, her golden eyes fixating on Alexa as she offered her a bright smile. She shifted her golden tipped angel wings against her back and wagged her tail. This was an odd thing to do but it seemed like so much fun and she was eager to get to pampering herself. She was pretty sure she deserved a little bit of pampering.

    ♡ ♡ ♡ Alexa nodded at Eggpaw, getting out the pink nail polish she went up to his nails and proceeded to do what she had done to Pierce, for someone so energetic she had the focus and precision of someone very aged-working. One by one his nails got coated in pastel pink until she was finally done. "There you go., hope you enjoy. Make sure you wait until it's dry before doing anything "


    The femme then looked at Mack, determined to take on the challenge of rainbow nails. Alexa gathered her colours. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet. This took longer than the others but eventually Alexa got it done. Looking back on her work she was quite impressed. His nails looked pretty good. "Same advice I gave to Eggpaw. Make sure to let them dry. That goes for all of you actually!" she exclaimed, not wanting to see her beautiful work get messed up.


    Alexa then focused on Ashpaw, she didn't really know what colour to go with but her instinct was going Indigo. Hoping she had made the right choice she preceded to paint his nails in a nice Indigo shade. "Hope you enjoy! I can always paint over if you don't like the colour." She re-assured, not entirely sure wether Indigo was his thing.


    "Of course! How are you today Syl?" She asked, while grabbing the gold colour and getting ready to do the task. One by one her claws were coated in the beautiful gold polish Alexa had. Finishing off with a flick the feline finished off. "You are all matching now!" The tigress realised before turning around and putting the gold polish back into the line for other people to choose from.

    [fancypost=border-width:0px; width: 450px; text-align: justify; font-size: 8pt; line-height: 125%]Dreamkit saw the small crowd and debated with herself for a while whether to go over. It looked fun, but there were a lot of people. And a stranger would be touching her a lot and probably try to make conversation.....
    But it really did look pretty. And that argument tended to always win over in the child's mind. Cautiously making her way over, she hid behind Pierce and peered around once Sylmae's session was finished. Clearing her throat, she decided to speak up. "C-could I have some, p-please?"

    my way back home to you


    Oh it was Alexa! The tiger was really nice, if a title must have been given. The angel smiled and titled her head at the sight. Nail painting? Did she even have nails? She hummed and looked down at her paws, flexing the limbs. Nope. Declawed. Weird. She sighed and landed beside the others with a smile. I dont have claws, but I'll sit and watch. she offered.

    Grinning, Mack gently lifted up each individual curved talon, amazed. She was so patient and gifted — I mean, who would take the time to paint not just claws, but talons? "Thank you so much! I appreciate it," He said. Sitting back, he'd let them dry, incredibly pleased with the result. It even made him genuinly happy, for a little while. After all, he'd been so depressed..but a nail job just made his day a bit sweeter.
