Owtch… Quick Chris say something nice! Although I can understand he’s probably thinking something along the lines of “a pretty noose is still a noose” but Anwar was trying to be thoughtful.
Also I like the feathery slip, but I agree with what someone else commented on a previous page- redheads don’t look good in pink (even though Chris is more of a strawberry blonde) he’d do better I think with cool colors like blue or green… but the pink might be part of the fetish as it has been associated with femininity during most of our lives.
I’m a red head and I look great in pink- it has to be a soft and warm type though. There are several different types of redhead, much of it depending on your under skin tone.
Now that you mention it and I went back to the first page, you might be right! :D It’s just harder to tell since we see the knot and not a lot of the pattern, whereas in the other page, you can see the face of the tie more.
Extremely tangental but……How do they make those things with the fluffy feathers? How are they sewn on without creating some kind of pink-chicken-explosion?
They glue or stitch/weave the feathers together into a ply (the common term for the fluffy stuff on lingerie is ‘marabou’). Speaking from experience, when you wear stuff with feather trimming, you do tend to leave a trail of feathers/fluff in your wake.
Taaaab! I like the outfit. I think it looks feathery and pretty and cute and I want to steal it. >.>
Did anyone notice how Anwar had a few fingers intertwined into the bottom trim of Chris’ slip? =D Nothing sexual mind you, but I think it’s cute. And maybe ‘War likes how it feels in his hands?
Poor Chris… Either he’s being extra careful or he just isn’t that fond of the tie.
As for the outfit, it’s beautiful, but looks more like fur still. Feathers have much shorter edges to them. Using a a specialized brush to soften those edges would make it even more clear—though if you are just sticking with an outline style, it’s not necessary.
Oh boy Chris… DID you like the tie!?
And I think it looks like fur but my brain knew it was feathers some how? I guess Chris strikes me a feathers and lace kinda person.

Daww I like the pink. I know nothing about what colors go well with what though so I can’t speak for that.

When you want to look pretty, you wear what you think looks pretty, even if it doesn’t necessarily flatter your coloring, shape, etc.
I don’t read Chris as even a strawberry blonde, he just seems blonde to me.
Looks like fur. Sorry Tab.

I guess it might have been too busy in pattern for Chris? Maybe? But if anything, they’ll talk it out, I hope.
You’re an angel. Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Isn’t it also the book’s cover/front page? Or is that a different tie?

Omg I’m finally caught up. Loving where this has been going lately. Love seeing these characters try to figure things out!
I have a feelig that maybe he doesn’t dare to put it on for work?
He might have gotten called the mean things at work thanks to the tie

And the cheaper the garment/trim, the more fluff you end up shedding.

I could totally tell it was feathers.
Chris should wear lingerie to work. No one will know and it makes you feel sexy in secret. THAT’S IT! Buy him lace panties, Anwar!!!

It could easily be synth fur. You’d be surprised how rare it is to find candy-pink minks frolicking in the wilderness. ;)

Ditto. It looks like fur, but I still interpreted it as marabou trim.
