THIS IS LITRALLY THE BEST THING ON THE ENTIRE INTERNET AND I AM 2000 GHOSTS ABOUT IT.

Like. Erik's cape obsession. Charles's indulgence of the cape obsession. Duarte. Everyone's agreement about Tim Gunn. In character PR judges. MICHAEL KORS BEING 20 GHOSTS. God, all I want in this life is to help spread a catchphrase all the way to reality television.

God they're totally going to bone under/on Erik's new cape. Old Retired Dudes on Reality TV are the BESTTTT

ALSO KAIT YOU ARE THE BEST AND I'M 5000 GHOSTS ABOUT YOU. I'M SO MANY GHOSTS THAT I'M GIVING PACMAN A PANIC ATTACK

THE SECOND I DECIDED I WAS WRITING THE PROJECT RUNWAY AU, I KNEW MICHAEL KORS HAD TO BE THE ONE BEING TWENTY GHOSTS. I can actually HEAR HIM SAYING IT IN MY HEAD.

Writing the judges was SO WEIRDLY FUN. I actually haven't watched PR since I moved to Boston, but I watched it SO MUCH when I lived in Jersey that I think it imprinted on me for life and this turned out okay. Coming up with the outfits was the hardest part. I wrote notes at my conference yesterday. For the first one it was like, "purple and red with a skirt. Basically Hawkeye's worst uniform."

OH MAN 5000 GHOSTS!! THAT'S SO MANY!! THANK YOU :D :D :D :D :D :D

"You still have it where it counts," Charles says dreamily. "Did you know, when we first met, he was wearing a wet suit? Lovely."

"I thought you loved me for my mind," Erik says, crossing his arms.

"Theatrical?" Erik asks. "When am I theatrical?"

CHARLES TOTALLY LOVED HIM FOR HIS MIND....and then, thirty five seconds later, he saw his body. BUT HE LOVED HIS MIND FIRST.

Eeeeeee! This is fantastic. You must watch a lot of PR, because I could really visualize each of the outfits. Charles and Erik are adorable, and Heidi is scary, and it's all just great. I'm sad that your 25 days are over, because I would really like to read a story with Tim Gunn, mutant entertainer. What's his superpower, charisma?

Haha, funnily enough, I haven't watched PR since I moved to Boston three years ago! I did, however, watch a LOT during the first five or six seasons, so I'm pretty sure it imprinted on me.

In my head, Tim Gunn is an empath and just genuinely REALLY CARES about everyone and despite not really using his mutation in his work, has done a TON for the mutant cause just by being on PR, since even the anti-mutant folk can't help but love him since he's TIM GUNN.

I'm still watching PR every week, and I can confirm that it's still just like this. And your Tim Gunn backstory works for me... someone needs to make one of those macros, "Your argument is invalid because TIM GUNN".

"which Charles hated for no real reason"

Probably because it is ugly, Erik.

This story is pretty much 60% OMG, Charles! and 40% laughing at Erik and his complete lack of a fashion sense. I still don't understand how movie-verse!Erik went from dressing so nicely to actually thinking painting a helmet red and purple was a good idea in such a short period of time.

The body suit costume makes me think of the Trial of Magneto uniform, which was the best Magneto outfit ever.

Basically, this story was amazing.

Let me just sit here and grin at this, especially as I'm watching Project Runway right now...
