Aragón: heaven fuck
CHAT WITH MRNUMBERS
MrNumbers: Hey are you done emasculating yourself
Aragón: when have I ‘been done’ emasculating myself
Aragón: like let’s be honest here
Aragón: when has that happened
MrNumbers: Fair point
MrNumbers: Your life is a joke
MrNumbers: That said, we gotta fix you up, man
MrNumbers: You can’t go to the presentation like that, you look like absolute shit
Aragón: you’re not exactly making this easier
MrNumbers: Okay maybe it’ll look better done up
MrNumbers: Maybe it was just the angle
MrNumbers: Show me your sleeve
Aragón: what?
MrNumbers: Take a pic of how the suit fits your arm dude
Aragón: uh
MrNumbers: Yeah dude that's real bad
MrNumbers: Dude that jacket is way too big for you holy shit
MrNumbers: Wear a belt, keep it done up at all times
MrNumbers: What’s up with that face though
MrNumbers: What is that supposed to convey
Aragón: GEE I DON’T KNOW
Aragón: IT’S ALMOST AS IF SOMEONE HAD MADE ME SELF-CONSCIOUS
Aragón: HOURS BEFORE THE FUCKING PRESENTATION
MrNumbers: LOOK IT'S NOT MY FAULT YOU'RE A SKINNY LITTLE BITCH
MrNumbers: DON'T SHOOT THE MESSENGER
MrNumbers: You're better off not wearing it though, for real
MrNumbers: Do you have a waistcoat?
MrNumbers: You'd look really good with that shirt, rolled up sleeves, black tie, waistcoat
Aragón: a wh
Aragón: what
Aragón: why the fuck would I own a waistcoat
Aragón: who the fuck owns a waistcoat in this day and age
MrNumbers: WELL
MrNumbers: GO FIND A THRIFT STORE AND BUY ONE
Aragón: it's sunday
Aragón: you goddamn idiot
MrNumbers: Fuck
MrNumbers: You’re fucked then
Aragón: ugh
Aragón: maybe if I button up?
MrNumbers: Nope.
MrNumbers: Those arms are way bad
MrNumbers: You're seriously - do you have a bowtie?
MrNumbers: A bowtie and rolled up sleeves would absolutely save you here
MrNumbers: Because you can wear that without a jacket fine
Aragón: …
Aragón: a fucking
Aragón: WHY ON THE LORD’S NAME WOULD I HAVE A BOWTIE
Aragón: DO YOU THINK THIS IS THE FUCKING SIXTIES
MrNumbers: I have five.
MrNumbers: To match every outfit I own.
Aragón: WHY DO YOU HAVE FIVE BOWTIES
Aragón: WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU
MrNumbers: Black, black patterned, blue formal, red formal, pink and white casual
MrNumbers: Oh wait no and also the Venice green one
MrNumbers: So six
Aragón: you own six fucking bowties
Aragón: oh my fuck
Aragón: there’s being a nerd
Aragón: there’s being an idiot
MrNumbers: And there’s the fact that you look like gay jailbait when you put on your suit
MrNumbers: You look like a shitty teenage actress in an original Disney Channel movie about a girl infiltrating an all-boys school
MrNumbers: Produced by the same brilliant minds who brought you High School Musical
MrNumbers: So shut the fuck up about my bowties, button up, and do a random pose with your arms, try to keep your back straight
Aragón: …
Aragón: …I hate my life
MrNumbers: You’re wearing a suit, for fuck’s sake
MrNumbers: Try to be sexy for once
MrNumbers: Then take a pic and send it to me
MrNumbers: And I’m serious – be sexy here, as much as you can
MrNumbers: Or I’m not letting you go
Aragón: you know, the way you worded that is a lil’ bit weird
MrNumbers: FFS mate I’m trying to help you
MrNumbers: Just do what I say and pose for daddy
Aragón: uh
Aragón: um
Aragón: …like this?
MrNumbers: Yeah it looks better
MrNumbers: Okay okay
MrNumbers: Could’ve puckered your lips a little bit there bro
MrNumbers: Make it easier on the eye
Aragón: are you
Aragón: numbers are you camwhoring me
MrNumbers: Okay now pull your collar out from under it a bit more
MrNumbers: And unbutton another button from the shirt
MrNumbers: You need a deeper cleavage
Aragón: UM
Aragón: NUMBERS
MrNumbers: Oh my god dude I’m not camwhoring you fucking hell
MrNumbers: I’m genuinely trying to help here
MrNumbers: Stop being an idiot for once in your life
Aragón: YOU’RE ASKING ME TO SHOW OFF MY CLEAVAGE
MrNumbers: LOOK, WHO’S THE ONE WHO CAN WEAR A SUIT HERE?
MrNumbers: HMM?
MrNumbers: FUCKING THOUGHT SO
Aragón: okay, sorry, sorry
Aragón: is… is this good?
Aragón: god this is slowly but surely rising to the top ten of weirdest shit that’s happened to me this week
Aragón: and that’s a fucking tough top ten to beat
MrNumbers: Okay, good
MrNumbers: That’s good
MrNumbers: One sec
MrNumbers: I’m sending you a pic
Aragón: huh
Aragón: are you like, posing with your suit too, or
MrNumbers: Nah dude why would I do that

Aragón: SON OF A BITCH
Aragón: I HATE YOU SO MUCH
Aragón: I HATE YOU SO FUCKING MUCH
MrNumbers: I’m just sending you a pic of my bowties
MrNumbers: There. This is what fucking fashion looks like.
Aragón: FUCKING-
Aragón: AGAIN WITH THE FUCKING BOWTIES
Aragón: OH MY GOD
MrNumbers: Yeah you need to tug the corners of your shirt collar out more
MrNumbers: so they rest over the suit lapels
Aragón: WHY DO YOU OWN SIX BOWTIES
Aragón: WHAT IS YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM
MrNumbers: Right now they’re tucked in
MrNumbers: Seriously, tug the corners of your shirt collar more
Aragón: WHAT
Aragón: LIKE THIS
Aragón: IS THIS WHAT YOU WANTED
Aragón: CAN WE GO BACK TO THE FUCKING BOWTIES NOW
Aragón: BECAUSE I CAN NOT GET OVER THIS
MrNumbers: Okay yeah see no that's too far. Unbutton it and tuck it down
MrNumbers: Right now you look like you're from an 80's vampire gay bar
Aragón: …
Aragón: I mean
Aragón: actually, like
Aragón: that’s not
MrNumbers: No Aragon you can’t go to your presentation looking like an 80’s gay vampire
Aragón: BUT IT FITS MY AESTHETIC
MrNumbers: You have no aesthetic
MrNumbers: You’re a twink in a world of bears
MrNumbers: You’re the smurfette with a dye job
MrNumbers: And you’ve got an awful taste in fashion
Aragón: OKAY
Aragón: I TAKE OFFENSE TO THAT LAST ONE
Aragón: I’M NOT TAKING SHIT FROM THE DUDE WHO OWNS SIX BOWTIES
MrNumbers: What’s wrong with FUCKING bowties
MrNumbers: They’re great
MrNumbers: Bowties are cool
Aragón: NO, THEY’RE NOT
Aragón: THEY’RE ONLY A THING IF YOU ARE SIXTY, A HIPSTER, OR A GODDAMN ALIEN
Aragón: NEWSFLASH
Aragón: NEITHER OF THOSE TERMS ARE VALID DESCRIPTIONS OF YOU
MrNumbers: YOU DON’T KNOW MY LIFE
Aragón: THAT’S IT
Aragón: I’M TELLING FERRET

Ferret: Nah, he makes them work

MrNumbers: You are really bad at this
MrNumbers: I mean at least we fixed your situation
Aragón: we did?
MrNumbers: Yeah
MrNumbers: I mean, you still look like a little girl, don’t get me wrong
MrNumbers: But at least you look like a properly suited little girl
MrNumbers: So who blogs about this?
Aragón: we’re blogging about this?
MrNumbers: You got humiliated in public
MrNumbers: Of course we’re blogging about this
MrNumbers: You always blog about shit that makes you look like an idiot
MrNumbers: If you didn’t hate yourself so much I’d genuinely think you get off on this
Aragón: I JUST WANT TO FEEL LOVED, OKAY
MrNumbers: Man
MrNumbers: Pity laughs are the strongest show of affection you’ve got
MrNumbers: That’s… something
Aragón: oh fuck off
Aragón: just for that, I’m editing the entire chatlog
Aragón: to make me sound better
MrNumbers: Yeah
MrNumbers: I’d love to see you try
Aragón: …
Aragón: FUCK
That was an adventure from start to finish.

Picture links are broken.
Anyway, wow. I thought my Goodwill shopping was bad.
Owning six different Bow Ties does seem excessive, though.
4453407
Fucking hell. Try refreshing the page? Other people are seeing the pics just fine, so it might be your computer. Or it might be UltraImg fucking me over again.
I hate that hosting website, really. This always happens.
I gotta admit, I'll eat one of my many fashionable hats, you actually did manage to edit this to make yourself sound better.
That it's still like... this... is pretty unfortunate, yeah.
4453407 Actually, I forgot the silver one... there's seven in that photo.
Six bowties
Six bowties
Okay
Now I've heard(or seen I guess) everything.
4453410
I steal free Wi-Fi from the university, so it might be that.
Top Kek mate.
OMG I AM FUCKING CRYING RIGHT NOW.
I'm sorry, Aragon, that was the most hilarious thing I have ever read. Not insulting how you look in the suit, I thought it was actually pretty good, but the way you and 4453411 went at each other just made me lose it. You're getting a follow for this, Numbers. You too, 4453433.
Oh, and Numbers, two more things:
1) You do look pretty sexy in that suit
2) Bowties are cool
Words cannot express my delight at being part of this.
You look okay don't worry.
My face hurts from laughing and smiling so much.
Also, if it's any consolation, while you're swimming in that suit, you're still more dapper than literally anyone at my office. Including me.
Best of luck with the presentation tomorrow!
(And yes, Rarity would top you so hard that up and down would lose all meaning. Aside from her continuing to top you.)
10/10 Fashion Fight.
Six bowties is too many.
This whole thing was amazing.
4453411
Uh, are you aware that the picture you took shows that you actually have seven bowties? Because if not, that's really ironic. Because your name is MrNumbers and you can't count. I mean, Aragón didn't notice either, but that's to be expected.
I mean... I've seen worse?
I honestly don't see the problem. Maybe it's because I have no fashion sense myself, but I thought you looked fine in the first picture. Sure, you're not as sexy as Numbers, but who is? Who is?
4453463
Every day I strife further and further from God's light.
I swear to fucking -- these are my fans talking. When did my life become this. I just KNOW that at one point somebody will mention that time I lost a fight against a lamppost, and from there on we're just going to go downhill.
(Also, Numbers noticed that -- in the same comment you quoted, in fact! He's still an idiot, though. Why the fuck would anybody need that many goddamn--ARGH)
I actually think you look really good in that suit.
4453472 You beat me to the lamppost... But at least I didn't get beaten BY the lamppost!
ffffff
4453472
It's your own fault, really. Just think of how many people would have a higher opinion of you if you didn't share it publicly on the internet whenever you make a fool of yourself.
There are two things I thought when I saw the first picture:
1. It might just be because of my taste in large coats, but I think it looks alright.
2. Every time I think 'Aragon', I see 'Smirking Pyrrha Nikos', and I don't think seeing your face is going to change that.
I wish that my conversations were as interesting as yours. Self-humiliation included.
Wait you have cleveledge?
The pictures aren't working. Are you the Scarlet Johhannson Look-alike I pictured you to be when I found you or not? THE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW.
Just get a bigger suit so it becomes a duster.
I am so fucking glad I follow you.
I have a few regular ties, although three of them were gifts, and two of them were gotten for a new shirt we had to get so that the whole presentation team would go the same (wine colored shirts suit me really well, I'm happy to say).
Also, since my brothers and I are all the same general sizes we share so we have the shirts on rotation to make it easier. This, we collectively have four different colors of shirts and like eight ties or so.
Ok, so I didn't really read the conversation, I'm just here to tell you that you look spiffy as fuck in a suit.
I saw Harry Potter in a suit...

Never, never ask something about me without expecting total disappointment.
Lil' links added to the bottom of every picture in the blog -- click on them and you'll see the pics, if the Fimfic preview doesn't work. That should help if anybody else has the same issue.

Jesus Christ ya didn't have to kill him, he has a family.
I'll need a minute after this one.
The photos literally shows a timeline of Aragon's descent into madness (bowties included).
Where did we go so wrong.
That was glorious
I love both of you~
Oh for pony's sake...
Suit's fine... it's the face that's a problem!
Seriously, though. Do you leave those bow ties tied because you don't know how to tie them?
4453692
It photographed better like that. I just left the black one undone to prove I actually know how to tie them and it's not just a pile of clip-ons.
I'm kind of glad I don't live a life where this might be in the top ten weirdest things to happen to me in a week.
Numbers is right, that outfit needed a waistcoat. Like, honestly, I'd suggest that with your build you'd generally pull off waistcoats better than a full suit and also you can wear a pocket watch with them. Also I kinda dig that 80s vampire look... I mean, maybe not the best choice for a presentation but still.
4453411
...Tell me more of these fashionable hats.
Rarity would top 100% of people on this site.
Also, that was a fucking RIDE.
I might be gay for Numbers now, though.
MrNumbers is the hero you deserve.
Also, now I really want a series of these where MrNumbers deals out fashion advice to FiMfic authors.
Posts like this one are the reason I follow you. I haven't laughed that hard in a while.
And yes Rarity would totally top you.
I'd subscribe to a daily feed of Aragon's wardrobe malfunctions.
P.S.: Pre-tied bow ties are for fookin pufftas.
After 5 years you waited until the last moment for an opinion already too late to fix any problem
It cant cause a problem
Hurray for procrastination
I've gotta mostly agree with Numbers: in the early pictures that looked less like suit, comma, dress and more like suit, comma, of armor, and when the suit of armor is big enough to fit an extra comma in without chafing, you know you've got problems.
The good news is that you looked gradually more and more dapper over the course of the photos. I think you really should look into a waistcoat (full disclosure: you would rock one harder than me, so I am laughing with rather than at), but you'll do fine at the presentation.
And thank you for the post! This was great fun, and you are awesome for having the confidence to bring us this unfiltered self-deprecation.
You guys don't match my mental image at all and that both scares and arouses me
My fukken sides are on the outer orbit.
Laughed so hard I might of peed my self. Thanks I really needed a Monday morning pick-up.
It's a rare thing indeed to find something that makes me feel better about basically being the dumb one in my group of IRL friends. This is the exact kind of shenanigans that I get dealing with them.
