ME
Thanks for believing in me
MAKAYLA
I’m always gonna believe in my friends

I kind of, ehh
MAKAYLA
Aww
ME
I dunno, I mean, I believe Loki can achieve his goals because he’s
brilliant. I believe in you because you’re super determined and hard working.

BLOSSOM
Hi, This is Stephanie Blossom. Kaylee gave me your number.
Is this Sigyn?
ME
Yes
BLOSSOM
Ok great! I’m Stephanie, it’s great to meet you!
ME
It’s very nice to meet you. Small notes: While Sigyn is my
legal name, I don’t currently have ID under that name because of a mishap with
my purse. I do have ID under a previous name and I figured I should let you
know that directly.
+ From what Kaylee said, you sound absolutely amazing and I really
hope things can work out.
BLOSSOM
Ok, thank you for being upfront! That’s a great quality we
can make things work :) and I hope so to
ME
Okay, that’s good! Let’s see. I sent Kaylee my reel from
HuDu a few years ago. It’s amateur quality and I am plus size and haven’t done
much work, but I’m hoping we can all work together and find some way to improve
me…er… Stage name is {DATA EXPUNGED}, legal name is {DATA EXPUNGED: FULL
VERSION OF NAME}, and I’m going to try to get a new ID next month, but if you
need the name on my passport before then, please let me know.
BLOSSOM
I will. I am sure we can make something work. Sorry if I am
hesitant I have had a very hard week with another client.
+ I am excited to work with you :)
ME
I’m excited to work with you, too, and I completely understand.
Difficult people can make trusting new people hard.
BLOSSOM
Very hard! What all are you needing and wanting to get out
of modeling.
ME
Well, I need a little bit of money to pay for my phone
service and food every month. That’s on the practical side. I’m also hoping for
a bit of exposure and to travel the states, gain new experiences, and grow as a
person. Honestly, what I’m trained to do is office admin, so I don’t know if I’d
be any good at modeling, but people seem to think I’m pretty and I figure since
I’ve been having a hard time finding work in my field, it wouldn’t hurt to give
this a try.
+ On another level, I like looking at art. I’d like to be a
part of that, you know, someone’s artistic vision, and if they could use
someone like me, that would be fantastic.
BLOSSOM
That is a great answer! I love people wanting to travel and
are in to art!!!! I think I have a few people who may be interested in you.
+ As far as Office Admin goes I presume you are good with
computers
ME
Yes, I type at 110 WPM at 98-100% accuracy, am proficient
with Microsoft Office Suite 2010-2013, and am familiar with some Apple software
(namely iTunes)
+ Oh, my goodness! I hope so!
BLOSSOM
Do you know pages and keynote?
ME
Vaguely. I have an iCloud account, but I wasn’t trained in
that. I assume Pages is a bit like WordPad and that Keynote is a bit like
PowerPoint.
BLOSSOM
Um similar, It’s no biggie. Do you have a Macbook?
ME
No, I have a Sony Vaio running Windows 7.
BLOSSOM
Ok, Well can you open Word documents?
ME
I can do that in general, yes. At the moment, I can just use
the Notepad on my phone because I don’t have a power outlet nearby. Is that
okay?
BLOSSOM
Yes that’s fine, Can I send you some forms?
ME
Yes.
+ (1.00 AM) Do
you need an email?
BLOSSOM
Yes, Then we will set up a work email.
ME
Okay. Personal email is {DATA EXPUNGED}.
BLOSSOM
I just sent 1
+ You should get a few forms to fill out
ME
Alright, thank you. I should get them in a few minutes. I
get notifications on my phone.
BLOSSOM
Great! I have a question
ME
What is it?
BLOSSOM
Kaylee mentioned you have a husband you want to get approved
for security?
+ Whats his name? May I send his form to your email?
ME
We’re commonlaw. I referred to him as my partner earlier.
His name is Loki Wisch.
+ And yes, please do!
BLOSSOM
I count that as married
+ I was common-law for 8 years :)
ME
Alrighty. I’ve just received your email! I don’t think my
Android phone can handle Pages, so I’ll open it tomorrow on my computer after
church.
Oh, nice! We tried getting officially married, but too many
things went wrong and so we just decided to be commonlaw
BLOSSOM
I will have Kaylee forward it, I thought I formatted it
right. Is it ok for me to give her your email?
ME
Yes, that’s fine.
BLOSSOM
Ok her email is {DATA EXPUNGED}.
ME
Alrighty
BLOSSOM
Tell me about you.
+ She is formatting them :)
ME
Oh, good! Let’s see… I’m 24 years old, 5’3, size 14-18
depending on the garment; born in Europe but raised in America, largely between
California and Arizona, currently in Oregon; straight A+ student until college;
lost focus in college, then went to Job Corps, which is where I earned my
certification in office admin, Microsoft Office Suite, and IC3; I like reading
and editing; used to write fiction for fun in the fantasy genre; used to take
modern dance; very devoted to Loki and essentially came up here with him when
he couldn’t find a stable place to stay in California. We live on $200/month or
less, depending on how much he gets panhandling. Phone bill is $40 and the rest
goes to food and replacement socks or sewing thread, whatever we need to
survive the rest of the month.
+ The modeling I did before was for Amadan Creations, who
are a leather-working collective specializing in fetish wear and bedroom
accessories, though they also make chainmaille garments. I was a booth model,
performed for a few shows on credit to draw attention to them as vendors.
+ Er… I’m not sure what you want to know… is that all right?
BLOSSOM
That helps me a lot tell me more about your modeling
ME
My designer, Colin, would let me know when they were going
to set up at HuDu, which was a once weekly show at a nightclub in Oakland.
Straight after class, I would go to his house and the other models and I would
try on clothes Colin and his partner made and wear what they suggested. Then we’d
go to the show and our job was basically to dance, mingle, be cute, and refer
people to our vendor. I was painfully shy, but managed to refer a couple of
people each week and I think it was about eight shows total before HuDu stopped
happening.
+ This was in the fall of 2012, I believe. Other than that,
back when I wore petticoats and corsets everywhere, sometimes strangers would
ask me to pose for them. I walked a catwalk twice for the American Mall Model
Search and got feedback that I have nice eyes and a good smile, but that I need
to relax. Then there was in-character costume play, where I would dress up as a
character from a video game and take pictures I thought were suitable for that
character. The cosplay and spontaneous shoots were for free and the booth
modeling was for credit off Amadan Designs.
BLOSSOM
Amazing! you have good history. I am impressed Can I get
verification if needed?
ME
Possibly. It’s difficult to get ahold of Colin, but I can
try to contact him and let him know you’d like to verify my time with Amadan.
+ For the cosplay, I have a Facebook page for that specific
character, but that was in a far more amateurish capacity. Would you want to
see it anyway?
+ (Also, I do have a reel for HuDu, which links to Amadan’s
Facebook, I believe. I can get that to you this afternoon after church, if you’d
like.)
BLOSSOM
That would be great when we make a portfolio I need
references
ME
Okay. I can give you my designers’ names, but I need to
check with them first, and one of my fellow booth models’ name as well.
BLOSSOM
That would be great :)
+ How are you with animals
ME
I’ve never worked with animals, but I like dogs and I love
cats.
BLOSSOM
That’s a plus. So Kaylee mentioned you guys eat natural as
well?
ME
Yes. Loki has an allergy to store bought meat and I stopped
eating it a little while ago for my heart.
BLOSSOM
Oh you guy’s would do well in my house.
ME
Yes, ma’am. Kaylee mentioned that you eat deer and that you
ferment your own drinks and that just sounds so amazing. Loki doesn’t drink at
all and neither of us do any kind of drug, including tobacco-related things, as
a personal preference that we don’t bother anyone else with, but I drink
socially and the first time I had homemade mead, it was fantastic!
BLOSSOM
Well you seam like amazing people :) Yes we eat deer almost
3 meals a day I cook other meat for guests. Yes we Brew our own it’s a family
tradition
ME
That’s wonderful. That must take so much time and effort.
BLOSSOM
Not as much as you think :) we have it done pat I hate to
but can I text you tomorrow? I just got home and am exhausted
ME
Absolutely, but I won’t have the phone back on until after
church, which will be… Hm. I think 1:30 Pacific. Thank you for this opportunity
and I will definitely look forward to hearing from you!
Makayla's side: 1:26 AM
Makayla's side: 1:26 AM
ME
Got em, thanks! I’ll open them first thing after church
MAKAYLA
Ok :)
+ Going good I take it
ME
Yeah, it seems to be :3
MAKAYLA
Yay
ME
:D =D
I’m really sorry all of the dramatic nonsense happened, but
on the other hand, I’m really glad to get this referral.
MAKAYLA
It’s ok I will always refer you to anything I can help with
ME
Yayyyy
MAKAYLA
I’m so sleepy. I’m going to bed :) text you in a bit
