Those Minmatar don't need fashion advice from a bunch of socialites who think that true fashion is to be as gaudy, garish and outrageous as possible. I bet they would appreciate the commanding presence a well-tailored Caldari suit offers much more.


This is rich! Minmatars don't need fashion advice?! I'll have what you're smoking....

Make it so.

I've tried dressing Matari to my satisfaction, but even their males look better in my clothes than I do. It's really just too much competition.

Certainly, as long as you pay my retainer. I do nothing for free darling.

Make it so.

In my trade, the first one is always free; it's a small, easily affordable courtesy that gets a good customer relationship going from the start.
I can understand if you're desperate for the money though; I'd be willing to trade a few bags of crash for a full review and critique of my wardrobe.

Aren't you a drug dealer? Your courtesy is nothing more than an attempt to establish certain physiological feedback loops in your target victim.

For the first time since I started the conversation, he looks me dead in the eye. In his gaze are steel jackhammers, quiet vengeance, a hundred thousand orbital bombs frozen in still life.

It is an effective marketing strategy.....

As I said, it gets us off to a good start.
And you'll find that this particular market tactic goes way beyond the narco industry.

Even on a political level... think about how eager the Federation was to get the young Republic hooked on Democracy.
They gave them the funds, the advisors, the bureaucratic framework...

I'd go as far to say that democracy is one of the most dangerous drugs in existence.
And I know my drugs.

Why. When you got a smallish tribe with a dozen men who compete to be a chief, or an ancient city-state with the population of free men of, say, 6000, or any other human community where everyone knows each other if not personally then at least by face (*cough* Thukker caravan?) -- i think democracy might work there all right under certain conditions.

When you get billions of people and all the PR and virtual reality crap, on the other hand...

I suppose you're right, I'm just slightly soured on your particular industry from having to coat deck plating with the teeth and blood of some of your clients in my youth. Besides, comparing something to the Federation's version of democracy is calculated to the opposite of making me sweet on it.

I think I was too busy trying to get change for a hundo.

Awww an offer from a crackhead...how nice. Unfortunately, I'll have to pass. But if you're low on funds, I can spare a few isk for you. This Gallentean isn't opposed to acts of charity, especially if it improves your wardrobe to something fashionable.

Make it so.

And this is why the Federation must be destroyed!

Why? Because of boosters? You sound like someone who's never tried one before.

You should try some Mindflood, at least. I do it all the time!

First "darling" and now "crackhead". You have a unique way of talking to women, Pilot Vatim.

I'll take you up on your offer; deliver me some Strut pants in camo and a matching vest-top to my caravanserai in Ardar.
In person.
And come in something fighty.

Don't worry about him, Miss Denton. I think you look wonderful just as you are.

Although set of those pants would look good too. I'm wearing the black style and I must say they very comfy and flattering to my legs. May require a knife of some kind to get them off however, but is ok as I have many pair of them.
