Dialogue

Small Talk

Masked Rose: Greetings, pursuer of fine fashion! Are you come to present yourself for judging? Or do you wish to know the current theme?
Masked Rose: Oho, a new challenger has come to put [his/her] stylistic sensibilities to the test! Welcome to the Fashion Report, good [sir/madam]!
Masked Rose: Wh-What? Is everything quite all right?
< Yes, everything is rosy! Redolently so! >
Masked Rose: E-Excellent! Full glad am I to hear it!
< Is...is that you, Redolent Rose? >
Masked Rose: <sputter> I-I fear you are mistaken! While I am flattered that you should confuse me with the greatest weaver the realm has ever seen, I am Masked Rose, and no other kind.
(Both)
Masked Rose: And if that was an attempt to flatter your way into my good graces─nice try, [sir/madam], but not even the sultana herself can expect special treatment here!
Masked Rose: Now then, I believe this is your first time participating in the Fashion Report. Allow me to explain the concept and the rules.
Masked Rose: Fashion is a form of self-expression. What we wear without is a reflection of who we are within. Be it a conscious effort or no, this choice brings our individuality to the fore.
Masked Rose: Some folk are drawn to vibrant colors. Others may favor a loose fit for comfort. And while 'tis well and good to dress to one's preferences, a man cannot prefer that which he does not know.
Masked Rose: The world of fashion is vast and, at times, daunting. But if we have the courage to take a step into the unknown, we may discover wonderful new ways of self-expression we had never considered.
Masked Rose: And 'tis for no other reason than to encourage folk to take that first step that I created this challenge, the Fashion Report!
Masked Rose: The rules are simple: I shall assign you a theme, based upon which you are to attire yourself to the best of your sensibilities. I shall then judge you and award you a score.
Masked Rose: Participating is free, and there is a host of fabulous prizes to be won, courtesy of Manderville & Manderville.
Masked Rose: If you wish to know the finer points of the game, my lovely assistant Kasumi shall attend you.
Masked Rose: I look forward to giving you my unadulterated, brutally honest evaluation of your fashion sense. Steel yourself, and let me know when you are ready to undertake the challenge.
Masked Rose: Oho... That's quite the unconventional combination. Color me impressed!

Model: A Gallant Gladiator

< Gorgeous yet gallant! >
Masked Rose: Such passion... Why, I could feel your spirit bursting through the seams and spilling forth onto the stage!
Masked Rose: There has never been a foe too ferocious for the gladiators' guildmaster─and today, you've proven there is likewise no foe too fashionable. You've slain the competition!
< Opposite of ordinary! >
Masked Rose: 'Twas quite a treat to see you reveal a softer side on this stage. Why, it simply set my heart aflutter!
Masked Rose: There is great beauty in the fluidity of your fighting, and your ensemble today serves to highlight that elegance. Splendidly done!

Model: A Master Miner

< Unearthing a new image! >
Masked Rose: I am by no means a miner, but were you and I to cross paths in a quarry somewhere, not even the brightest gleaming gem could draw my eye away from your beauty!
Masked Rose: Those shimmering stones should consider themselves lucky to be unearthed by a living, breathing treasure such as you.
< Unveiling a softer side! >
Masked Rose: Your ensemble evokes an elegance that is often sought yet rarely found─a diamond hidden amongst the dust and darkness. You are a treasure to behold!
Masked Rose: Why, this must be how you miners feel when you uncover a precious stone. And to think that I would figuratively strike it rich on my first attempt!

Model: A Premier Pugilist

< A dashing ladykiller! >
Masked Rose: Th-This is...a most novel ensemble. It provides a playful youthfulness that belies your years.
Masked Rose: And while I cannot imagine enrobing myself with those raiments, I must say the power pouring forth from within you pulls that outfit together in a way others would envy.
< A stylish pugilist! >
Masked Rose: You must forgive me for underestimating you, but I certainly didn't expect you to take such a fashion-forward approach to your ensemble...
Masked Rose: I must say, I'm quite impressed. Why, you may even have a future as a model for the Mythril Eye! I daresay men your age could take a few pointers from your stylish sensibilities.

Model: A Minute Machinist

< Ditch the goggles, show the face! >
Masked Rose: Oh, I could get lost in those big, round eyes... Even a single glance makes my heart skip a beat! You Lalafell boys are simply adorable.
Masked Rose: And your ensemble today only serves to highlight your inherent cuteness. Why, I can barely restrain myself from leaping out of my seat and squeezing you right now!
< Dress in brown, show some style! >
Masked Rose: This all-brown ensemble of yours is so chic! If a stylish mechanist like you tried to sell me the most expensive magitek device you own, I'd pay top gil for it without question.
Masked Rose: While I recognize that folk in your line of work are often forced into wearing the same uniform day in and day out, I encourage you to experiment a little when you're off the clock!

Model: A Godlike Goldsmith

< Unrestricted eroticism! >
Masked Rose: Your calm demeanor belies a formidable passion that only a man of your years can exude─a fine wine that I would give anything to imbibe.
Masked Rose: And although those sunglasses may cover your eyes, I can feel your gaze piercing straight through my heart. Everything about your ensemble is fabulous!
< Unfettered physicality! >
Masked Rose: M-My word... Muscles upon muscles, all chiseled to perfection...
Masked Rose: You have exhibited great courage in sporting such an austere ensemble─and for that, I must both commend and thank you. I shall not forget your fantastic physique as long as I live!
