Swordspoint drabble: Nip and Tuck [Katherine, Artemisia, general]
Title: Nip and Tuck
Author: celandineb
Fandom: Swordspoint
Characters: Katherine, Artemisia
Rating: general
Summary: Katherine would rather be practical than fashionable.
Note: For just_ann_now who wanted Katherine and Mia, "fashion."
"It's important," Artemisia insisted. "No one will take you seriously if you don't make some concessions to fashion."
"I look ridiculous, and besides, how can I fight if I can't breathe?" Katherine gestured at her tight-nipped waist. "My uncle..."
"Your uncle was generally outrageous, but still relatively conventional in attire." Artemisia frowned, snatched up a piece of ribbon and began looping it around Katherine's bosom and waist. "If we accentuate the lines so, and pad your shoulders and hips, we can remove the tight lacing and still give you the proper appearance."
Katherine turned toward the mirror. "Mia, you genius!"
