Private Model Citizens

[Corazona von Ascania]

The image of a poorly disguised Darth Carnifex wearing an obviously fake mustache with a pair of thick rimmed glasses and an outlandish accent was enough to coax a light laugh from her.

The fashion mogul was decidedly, not the Dark Lord. Sith wasn't entirely off the table, given the way he swiftly insulted Jonyna's clothing then…somewhat insulted Valery and Cora? Maybe? It was hard to tell with the chaotic accent.

"Better? What do you-"

Cora blinked, startled as a dramatic finger was pointed her way. Bold?

She glance in the direction where Jonyna has disappeared, then over to Valery.

"What did you have in mind? Something appropriate, I hope.”

"Oh yes yes yes!" He smiled, his curly moustache trimming with excitement at the prospect. "Come! Follow me!"

He swiftly led them into a nearby hall, "For ze Master, Ve are thinking...something simple. Ve have a dress that would look just stunning on ze Master Jedi's...uh...form." He let out a cough, hoping to not incure too much of Kahlil Noble 's wrath. "Azzistant!" He called, looking into one of the closets in the hall. "Pull out ze numbah 34. Master Noblè would like to try it on."

"Yes Sir!" Called the human, who looked to be at the beck and call of the Gungan.

"Right right...maybe some boots? Hmmm...Ve vill leave that up to you. Ve have several to choose from if you so please." He looked to Cora. "And You! Ve are thinking...dress! Something that would POP! Ve have an outfit that Ve are testing. Vhat is your dress size?" He asked as he gestured to a set of rooms, open and unused. "Ve can talk vhile you change. My azzistant will bring you your new outfits shortly. Ve promise, no peeking. Ve will stand just out in de hall." He made a scouts honor, holding one hand up. "Ve are a professional."

On my form, hm?

Valery tilted her head and smirked. This wasn't a comment that Kahlil would kill the gungan for, she hoped, and she quite agreed with his opinion as well — a neat dress would very much look good on her. It'd also be sexy but still appropriate, and something fun to send home to her husband.

"Alright, I'll get changed, then. You two have funnn~" Valery teased both Cora and Jonyna before she walked away to head into her dressing room. The dress they had ready for her was quite stunning, and showed a lot of thigh. Something different than a plunging V that left little to the imagination.

Kahlil Noble was going to love these photos.

"Alright, should I wait here?" Valery asked the human after she got changed. "Or go back to the others?"

 

[Corazona von Ascania]

A brow went up at the mention of the Master Jedi's form. The very same form that had, embarrassingly, given Cora a nose bleed.

She straightened up, pulled away from the memory when the melodramatic gungan leveled his attention at her. A dress? That didn't sound bad, so long as it had an appropriate design.

"Er…I'm a galactic standard 4, an Atrisian 38."

Theatrical as he was, Cora was no longer suspicious that the gungan was up to no good. The whole operation, though glitzy, seemed decently professional.

And so, she stepped into the changing room next to Valery's and awaited the dress.

As Val stepped out, the Gungan grinned. "Oh Perfecto, exactly how Ve envisioned it. Go to the studio! Ve Will get pictures dis instant!"

The assistant pushed a cart into Cora's changing room, a dress, hanging from the cart that seemed to light up with fabric that seemed to show watery patterns, little rivers of light flowing through the dress, next to it, another dress, flowy and brimming with color. Finally, Something a bit different.

"There you are!" The assistant, a petite woman with a pair of blue eyes that shined like sapphires, stood with a small smile on her face. "Ya know, I don't meet a princess every day."

Valery stepped out of the changing room while Jonyna and Cora were still getting their outfits figured out, it seemed. She looked around, but didn't spot them, and decided to just follow directions for now. As far as she knew, the pictures were going to be taken separately, anyway.

Valery had just hoped to see them before going in.

"Alright, let's do it. Should I just try some different poses? Or do you want anything specific?"

 

[Corazona von Ascania]

Cora had to admit - the dresses were beautiful, each unique in their own way. She reached out, experimentally rubbing the iridescent fabric of one gown between her fingers.

High quality, too.

She smiled at the assistant, dipping her head in a brief gesture of appreciation. Being socially recognized as a Princess kicked up a host of feelings, some of them awkward, but some less so.

"I promise I don't bite." She joked poorly.

After trying on all three dresses- and then trying them on again, Cora emerged with the assistant, clad in the flowing blue fabric that seemed to be lit from within.

"Oh! Look at you." Cora chirped the moment she saw Valery, all leg with a dose of side boob. She pulled it off better than most women, Cora imagined. "Don't you look-" She swallowed thickly. "H-heart stopping. That dress was made for you!"

"Oh it's not that, it's just...I'm a little starstruck. Usually we just get professional models in here, ya know, all business types. A princess...wow." The assistant blushed. "I'm Kim by the way. Kim Antilles." She offered a handshake once Cora got dressed.

It took a couple minutes, but Jonyna finally came out as well, now clad in a tight leather jacket that went over her Cathar top, a pair of denim shorts barely covering her butt, the bottoms seeming to have been torn off with force. Instead, a pair of thin fishnet leggings led down to a set of knee high boots. "...alright, I could get used to this..." Jonyna muttered as she walked out, looking at the other two. "What do you two think? Too casual? Too old school?"

"Ve tink it's perfecto!" Stomme added, smiling at the three. "And yes, come vith us! It is photo time! Strike a pose!"

He led them back into the studio, gesturing Val up first. "Ve are tinking...Something sexy! Something that would make your husband swoon! Show us what you have!"

"Oh, hey!" Valery smiled when she heard Cora approaching and looked at her with a smirk. At the compliment that followed, Valery smiled but she did raise an eyebrow when Cora swallowed and stammered a little.

Maybe the dress was a bit spicy, after all.

"It's a bit revealing, but I do like it a lot." Valery pushed out her left leg and rotated it from one side and back - there was definitely a lot of leg, and she'd have to be careful with the sideboob, but she loved the look on her.

Kahlil Noble was definitely going to love it, too.

"You're looking great in your dress too, though! Fits you well." Valery smiled warmly and only turned away when she was summoned to start posing in front of the cameras.

Somethimg sexy, hm? She could do that.

After a few poses just to test the waters, Valery found her favorite one - she angled her hips to bring out her thigh and reveal a little more of the side of her body, and raised a hand up into her hair. A pose to tease every prominent curve of her body.

This one is for you, babe.

 

[Jonyna Si]

​

The sound of shutters opening and closing filled the room as Val went through her poses, the Gungan smiling at it all. Finally, his dream could come together. Rogue would be a name written in the stars, by the stars.

"Oh yes, yes, love the camera, the camera is you new best friend!" The gungan was practically swooning himself at the sight. "Perfecto! De Master of De Jedi looking like ze million credits! Now!" He looked to Cora. "Ve want de princess next, yes? Come! Come!" He had Kim, the assistant, help Cora on stage, making sure she didn't fall in her big dress. "Ve are thinking...something romantic! Something passionate! Vhat do you call them...Yes! Like one of those Lady Velvet covers! Strike a pose!"

[Corazona von Ascania]

Starstruck?

Okay, that made Cora feel a little giddy. She smiled warmly as she took the assistant's hand, giving her a tilt of the head. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Kim. I'm glad to be working with you."

Jonyna appeared next, sporting an outfit full of leather and attitude. She reminded Cora of some of the tough-yet-fashionable women she'd seen on Denon.

"I think it looks very nice." She nodded in agreement with Stomme. "It's very…what's the word, grunge chic? It fits you well, Jonyna!"

Cora's gaze drifted to Valery as she went through her motions, instantly swallowing at the provocative posing and flashes of skin. She looked good, and she knew exactly how to enhance her feminines wiles with an enviable confidence.

"That was great, Ma- Valery."

The blonde cleared her throat, nodding quickly when the director waved her and Kim onto the stage next. With careful steps, Cora lifted up the luminescent skirts as she moved into the shooting area.

She could do romantic. Passionate, even, she cou-what??

Panic painted her face as she squinted into the bright lights.

"I…er, uh-"

Ohgodohgod. Does he know? He couldn't know. Unless…

Stromme was grinning, and Cora's brain had shut down. She had no idea how to respond.

"I…do not know what that m-means." She stammered, feigning ignorance. "Perhaps some guidance?"

Oh Force, please don't let him pull a copy of One Night on Zeltros out of his back pocket…

"Yeah? Was that any good?" She did smile at the Gungan's reaction, but it was Cora's opinion that meant a little more to her. Cora was someone who understood, so if she offered her compliments, Valery knew she had done something right. Soon enough, she was going to hear her husband's reaction and she sincerely hoped he'd be blown away by these pictures.

Especially since they'd be on the cover, she imagined.

Valery then turned to the Gungan, who requested Cora to go next. But while Valery had expected this to be something right up the young woman's alley, Cora almost seemed startled. Perhaps stage fright? She blinked and watched her former Padawan struggle far more than anticipated.

"They're spicy romance novels," Valery decided to clarify, before she took out a holo-device and projected a few covers. "...not that I, uh, read them..." She smiled sheepishly, gave Cora a chance to study the covers, then put the device away.

...

<...one word, and I'll kill you.> A telepathic message to her husband, just to be safe.

 

[Jonyna Si]

​

"Yes Yes! Ve are a big fan, have a whole set at home! Signed too! Lady Velvet is an Auteur of the highest caliber in their field!" The gungan grinned. "The prose, the drama, the romantiek! It's exactly what I want from a Princess in my shoot! You must swoon with the delicacy of a Zeltronian Rose. Show your Dress like it was begging to be stripped by your pink-skinned lover, a song waiting to be sung!"

Cora could tell he was definitely a fan, given he was quoting from the book directly...

Cora blinked. Then she blinked again.

Valery knew about Lady Velvet? She thought her novels were spicy? She didn't read them??

Overloaded with all of this new information, the blonde's brain threatened to break down entirely. The fact that Valery was clearly trying to cover up the fact that she had read Velvet novels didn't register.

Then the gungan dropped an actual line right from the novel and Cora's head whipped around so fast she nearly broke her neck.

"S-s-stripped??"

Her face was on fire, something she imagined would be retouched in the final product. Cora drew in a heavy breath, then exhaled slowly. Tossing her head back, she settled one arm across her waist and the other stretched upward, cradling her head in the image of a woman overtaken by the passion of the moment.

It was also the exact pose from taken from the cover of The Kaminoian Who Cloned My Heart.

"L-like this?"

Valery blinked back at Cora.

Had she said too much? It was no secret that Valery was a silly romantic, as Kahlil liked to put it. But her interest in smutty novels was still a secret only a handful of people were aware of. Mostly Kahlil as well, and he just loooved to tease her about that. Among other things.

Luckily, Cora didn't quite seem to catch on — her attention was abruptly drawn away by the Gungan's comment.

"It's like you made the cover!" Valery encouraged with a warm smile when Cora finally struck her pose. The Jedi Master obviously recognized it from the book she read, and Cora was almost scary good at it.

Funny coincidences, huh?

 

[Jonyna Si]

"Ja! Perfect! Precies dat!" The Gungan grinned as the camera shutters opened and closed rapidly, "You look like ze spitting image of Elizabeth Valorian!" Of course he knew the name of every character in the book. "Dis will make our new issue POP! Mrs Noblé, would it be possible for us to get in contact with the rest of your council?"
