The first thing this woman checks over when given a look is her clothes? Is this really happening? If Marie weren't right in front of her and her hand clearly smoother than what he's used to from his rogue friend, he might think he was dreaming. There are so many opportunities here he almost doesn't know which to choose and it's amazing.

He positively beams when Marie comments on his work. "Thank you. Coming from a woman as finely dressed as yourself, I take that as the highest compliment." Being praised for his work isn't unusual after the job is done, so he'll happily take getting it on the front end. "I've been a tailor for over a decade now, and settled in the Nexus for over half of it. This place has the best access to fabrics and clients that a man like myself could want." His smile turns playful as he adds, "I'm sure a business woman such as yourself understands."

Ah to be allowed to flirt with this face again! It's truly freeing, and more than a little exciting.

"But enough about me! What are you looking for today? Something new for your work? Or maybe something nice for going out at night? As I said, I've plenty of options for us to choose from." The only question is where to begin!
