Mack heaved the booth wall over to get at some of his costumes that lay scattered beneath it. He cursed as he saw some of them were going to need repairs.

	"Well this is just lovely. Not only does someone take off with my cash bag in the chaos but some of these thousand dollar full body costumes are going to need stitching as well and its not like I can just repair them and sell them for full price with a clean conscience." He grumbled. Fiona gave him an out of character leer in response.		"Well this is just lovely.

Fiona gave him an out of character leer in response.

	"At least you didn't come as a Victorian era Vixen anthro." ~~She~~ said, gingerly helping him pick up some of the costumes that lay scattered. Though she had to take it easy as she was wearing a corset under her dress they had found out she couldn't take off in public, she was just grateful she hadn't come in a bodice.

	"Well... Maybe I would have liked to come as something. I only didn't because I wanted to focus on the business while I was here." Mack replied, examining a Minbari head that he'd sculpted by hand just a month before the convention. He'd sold the other one he'd made a couple hours before. It made him wonder where that person was now. "I had that problem at the last Anthrocon I went too remember? I had a lot of fun with that coyote morph costume but I couldn't concentrate on running the booth."		"Well... Maybe I would have liked to come as something.

	"Hmph, I'm sure you would've just loved coming in that female anthro Girrafe costume you've been working on for the past year." ~~She~~ said bitterly. Mack imagined that if a proper lady was allowed to lose her cool and cuss people out in public Fred.. er... Fiona would be right now.

Mack imagined that if a proper lady was allowed to lose her cool and cuss people out in public Fred.. er... Fiona would be right now.

	He considered what to say for a second. Part of him wanted to snap at Fred that no one had made him come to Xanadu dressed as an Victorian styled Vixen but considering he was the one who had designed and built the costume for him...

	"Sorry.." He said, feeling a bit inadequate. What business did he have getting angry? He should be trying to be there for Fiona like she was trying to be for him by helping him salvage what was left of his booth.		"Sorry.." he said, feeling a bit inadequate.

	"No, don't. Don't worry about it." ~~She~~ said with a sigh. "I know I shouldn't be acting this way. I just wish I had someone to help me through this." ~~She~~ said, sitting down on the shattered remnants of his table, careful about not getting her dress caught on anything. "I realize its greedy of me to think so but a part of me actually wishes you had come in costume, then maybe we could have helped each other with this." The sadness in her voice was much more muted than her words seemed to say, but Mack could tell just by looking at her that there were some of the psychological changes in her head that he'd seen in some of the other convention goers who had been struck.

	Mack considered his words and realized that he could only really bring himself to say one thing. Fred had been his friend and by default Fiona was as well. "Fiona I'm sorry I didn't come in costume and now for more than just one reason. I want to be there to help you because your my friend and even if it meant being a lady so that I would be able to share this with you I would." He left unsaid that he couldn't. He hadn't come in costume and that seemed to be that. He felt guilty after saying it, sure it was one thing to say it but did it really mean anything when nothing could be done?

	"There we are, told you it was no problem." Mack said, suddenly handing Jacobs mask back to him. Jacob blinked in confusion, thinking that it'd only been at most two minutes.

The Arctic fox morph shouted gleefully. "I owe you so much, your getting all the cash I have left and when I get back home I'm going on IRC and I know a LOT of people who are going to be wanting their own costume and I'm referring each and every one of them to you and..." The arctic wolf morph paused to breath and as he did so he seemed to think of something and jumped off of Mack, looking a couple different ways all at once. "Where's the nearest pay phone?!
