Super Bowl Party
Cindy was proud of the festivities she'd set up.

The game was projected onto one wall of the huge atrium the party was taking place in, with plenty of comfy seats facing it. It was only polite, after all.

More important was the food. Tables of chips, veggies, wings (with three different types of dressing), muffelettas (it's a New Orleans occasion this year. Thematic), and chili rolls. Cindy was especially proud of the chili rolls; there was one row marked 'Regular' and one row marked 'Queen' The latter row had a stack of pens and informed-consent waivers in front of it.

There was also a small end table full of party favors for everyone. In celebration of commerce, they were $10 gift cards, each for somewhere she thought fitting for the person the card was marked for.

Cindy likes parties.

	Harry nods, thinking it was all reasonable. "Yeah, which is why they'll give you the list if you ask or sign on. But always good to know details." He blushes slightly at the compliment though. "Thanks, I'm trying." Now he turns around to see if Cindy is waiting in the wings and read to explain the Pippi-relevant details. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Harry hands Cindy the NDA form Pippi just signed and smiles. "She's signed it so she's allowed the details right?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yep. So, Pippi. You ever see any of those Glamour International magazines from the '50s?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Pippi nods enthusiastically. "I love some of the 1950's, classic glamour stuff. Are you doing something like that?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not precisely the same, but a similar 'minimalist approach to clothing, strategic positioning' kind of style. So would you be interested, not only in the hair and makeup, but helping minimalize the costumes for a bunch of girls in the super-set?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ohhh, that'd be fun. What type of minimal? Monroe and Page, Short skirt and missing a button, 50's beach chic? What kind of style and format?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Well, there's going to be a lot of variety based on each person, and seasonal. We're doing a charity cheesecake calendar. So the summer months'd be beach-oriented -- pretty sure Cait's got August, for instance. But there's a lot of flexibility. As long as the outfits are both recognizably their costumes, but showing a lot more, just within PG13 range."

And the list is gotten out of who's in.

	At which point Harry looks down at his notepad pointedly and distracts himself by taking notes. Good thing Pippi knew what questions she wanted, he wouldn't have been able to ask or know much about this part of the job. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Pippi reviews the names without saying them aloud, then nods. "Alright, so you're looking for good girl work based on their costumes. Sure, I can do that. I'll need the fabric, but I have the rest. This could be fun. Have Harry review the contract. If he likes it, and I can still use it for my portfolio, like he said, I'm in." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	littleladylord 2013-02-04 05:21 am UTC (link)
	"That and the hair and makeup to go with. Once any particular element is released to the public, it can go in your portfolio." And who said Pippi was hard to deal with? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	in_reserve 2013-02-04 06:19 am UTC (link)
	Harry nods in agreement, he'll look the contract over. Very carefully. Because she's putting a lot of trust in him if she'd sign what he said and he didn't want to steer Pippi wrong. "Anything else she'd need or to consider?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	littleladylord 2013-02-04 06:21 am UTC (link)
	"The money's nothing much. She'd need someone to watch her unicorn. And you don't have to make the call immediately if you'd rather look it over some more, Harry. Things are on the right track. We don't need the ts crossed today." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	in_reserve 2013-02-04 06:27 am UTC (link)
	"Oh! No, I wasn't going to," he blinked. Of course he'd take the contract home and go over it in detail, sleep on it, and be sure he knew everything needed about it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Great. Oh, don't forget your party favor, Pippi. It's for BPAL. They have an entire section of products devoted to The Last Unicorn" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Pippi nods. "Don't worry, Harry. I trust Tess and Steven." Not so much Cindy, for reasons of orange, but Cindy probably prefers it that way. "And I wouldn't say yes so easily if I didn't like the job. I don't need the money, just the portfolio work, so don't worry about the pay too much. Just make sure there's no scheduling problems and whether I need to bring my own supplies or whatever, and make sure you can handle the travel arrangements. I'll pay for your airline tickets to come with if you're free.

Just look it over to make sure it makes sense. If it does, I'll sign it. This sounds like fun."

A pause. "Yay! I love that movie!"

	Harry smiles to himself, happy he'd gotten the question of supplies and scheduling down earlier. "It's alright, I can teleport. You too if you need. And I'll get it to you within the week." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bobblehead 2013-02-04 07:00 am UTC (link)
	"Oh yeah, I forgot. Great! I'll be looking forward to it. Thanks, both of you. I'm going to go watch the Birdies win over the algebra team now." (Reply to this)(Parent)
