andrea’s mouth opened and then closed just as quickly. how long had she been staring for? she hadn’t even realised that she was until emily pointed it out, how embarrassing. she admired the other woman, she was brilliant at her job and just seemed to have everything so —- together. andrea could hardly remember miranda’s coffee order, whilst emily could name every item of clothing – and accessory – that their boss had planned on including in the spring issue.

she nodded her head, a slight gulp coming from her throat. “oh, then i apologise, i didn’t mean to gawp.” a small smile tugged at the corner of her lip when she noticed the smile on emily’s face – a rare occurrence.

it was probably the last one she would see for at least a few weeks, it would be stupid of her not to make the most of it while she could. “i just like your outfit today.”

she picked up the phone, holding it against her chest. “and for what it’s worth…” her voice trailed off, eyes falling onto the papers scattered across the other woman’s desk. “i don’t think miranda would scatter you around the world. maybe milan, or paris if she is feeling really upset.”

firstassistant

she could feel a cluster headache coming , seriously , this was so inconvenient . tom's people really were the most disorganised team she'd ever encountered , how hard was it to book a bloody. run through of his spring collection ?! andrea was a welcome addition , finally another pair of hands to help her around the office . also welcome because she made emily look good , especially in those hideous clothes . she couldn't wait to tell serena about her latest outfit choices .

smirking at andrea's response . she shakes her head disapprovingly , honestly she's doing her best to not be offended . ❛ of course you like it , it's called having taste in fashion . not . . . whatever that frumpy look is . ❜ taking one long look at andrea's choice of fabrics and colours . . . emily essentially mimicked miranda in these moments .

❛ you've got a lot to learn , andrea . ❜ she sighs , miranda wouldn't hesitate to make their lives a living misery . every single second would be filled with dread , anxiety , panic and feeling absolutely worthless .

❛ . . . if you last obviously . ❜ smirking again , emily could be cruel particularly when faced with a threat . she didn't like the fact that miranda had hired her , andrea sachs was the type of woman that belonged in a trash magazine . . . not runway . for god's sake , look at those terrible shoes .

#ofbleedingpages ; andrea sachs .#RUNWAY YEARS ; assistant to the devil .

❛ no , no , no , no , no ! look at this ! i swear chanel is out to get me . ❜ pinching her nose , this was horrific . almost all of the guest were drenched in chanel prints . . . sickening . with benji at her side , emily could feel the eyes of judgement cast upon them .

it was ridiculous , the divorce was old news and people need to move on . he was her patron . she means partner . ❛ benji , i swear to god , this is personal . smile and pretend it's fine , that's what we're doing . ❜

standing before mirrors might just be a favourite place of hers, currently blessed with three reflections of her own divinity, letting the vanity of it all simply wash over her like a beach wave. the hellfire gala was no joke as the highly-desired mutant event of the year, and emma took to organising it much like a queen controls her court — with a strict, icy hand and preparations that would put even her father's busy schedules to shame. but stood here now, brushing her hands down the snowy white satin that clung against her hips and admiring how the diamonds dripping from her form caught the light, she pushes everything outside of this room out of her mind. enjoying the attention as emily's muse.

" oh darling, please. you and i both know i could afford it even if you did, " emma retorts, catching the other woman's glance reflected in the mirror and giving a knowing brow raise, shortly followed by an amused smile. money being no issue meant the upmost elegance would always be at her fingertips... and certainly, emily had outdone herself exponentially with this design. brushing some platinum strands over her shoulder with her usual nonchalance, the psychic returned her gaze to herself as her body shifted from one pose to another. searching for any slight flaw, lest she be made to look anything less than utterly ravishing. " and i just know you enjoyed every single second of whipping her into shape, didn't you? this is why i like you so much, emily... you understand the innate severity of good fashion. "

firstassistant

she starts to style the garments , crouching around the blonde , emily's name had to remain untarnished and polished . the hellfire gala was an event that was beyond the constraints of the cosmos . emma was going to grace every single magazine cover , every blog , every twitter post , every billboard . . . charlton couture had be a label everyone wanted sewn into their clothes . emma frost was a beauty that encapsulated emily's fashion label ; polished , sleek , beautiful , powerful and smooth . taking a step back to admire the look , how it elevated emma's natural figure and complimented her colouring .

❛ as if i would . ❜ she giggles . emma's connections and advertisement revenue was more than enough , she owed emma part of her success . the other part to a brilliant journalist , andrea sachs . ❛ well , rome wasn't built in a. day . . . blood had to be spilled . good fashion is only as good as the muse . you look divine . ❜ a factual statement spoken with such sincerity , but honestly muses were hard to come by . ❛ now , accessories . . . you don't want to over do it , you don't want to look like jean . ❜ snickering , remembering last year's mishap . the redhead was drowned out by accessories . ❛ i heard she's on course for worst dressed . . . third year running . ❜

"Why are you looking at me like that?" [ from andrea ]

FIRST LINE PROMPTS / ACCEPTING .

scoffing , it wasn't the way she was looking at andrea , it was the other way round . andrea sachs ; the woman who somehow got into runway . . . how was it even possible ? she had no sense of fashion , look at her . . . all frumpy and lumpy .

shaking her head . tutting . there was so much to get through and andrea's too busy gawping in her direction . she's probably wondering how chic she looks and how she manages to be so successful in front of miranda .

❛ it's not me ! it's you , you have that sickening puppy expression slapped on your face . it's unnerving . ❜ actually , it was totally endearing . if emily was being honest with herself , andrea was a godsend and actually , if she changed her clothes then she would absolutely shine . an unconscious smile had crept on her lips . she's now stupidly aware . . . bollocks ! straightening her back , snapping out of some kind of fever dream where she admires andrea sachs .

❛ could you stop it ? honestly , stop gawping and answer the phone . ❜ she could always command the office , whenever miranda was away , she pretended that she was the next in the chain of command . ❛ if i don't book tom ford , she'll have my head on a stick and the rest of me scattered around the world . . . in pieces . ❜ at least she'll weigh less .

"You’re not on the list." [ from miranda ]

FIRST LINE PROMPTS / ACCEPTING .

❛ are we going to be doing this today , miranda ? ❜ emily had grown to be fiercely independent of miranda's validation , so she told herself . she tilts her head , raising a brow . runway was in decline and luxury retail was on the rise , leaving that magazine was the best thing to happen to her .

print media was becoming an artefact , a relic of the past . . . it was nigel and the other people she used to work with where her sympathy lay . dior had finally promoted her to the big leagues , they saw potential and tenacity . she was valued .

❛ i think you'll find dior has four guests for this party , to which i am one of them . ❜ she feigns a smile . advertisements were keeping runway afloat from drowning in it's own scandal . wasn't it time she retired ? honestly , miranda priestly was turning into a meme ; she was mocked , laughed at and pitied .

emily was loving every single second of it . finally , she was getting her revenge on years of resentment and how miranda had forced her out of runway . ❛ this gown is rather simple . . . is runway losing money ? ❜ she felt sick saying that , but she could not help it .

#ofbleedingpages #MIRANDA PRIESTLY'S OFFICE ; answered .#ofbleedingpages ; miranda priestly .#i hope this okay haha #DIOR YEARS ; runway and revenge .

phriestly

the run - through was a disappointment . uninspired . boring . is it so difficult to find a modicum of beauty in this world ? at least emily does the bare minimum and has managed to schedule her facialist . wonders will never cease . idly , miranda picks up her montblanc . sets it back down . then her first assistant informs her about lagerfeld . her optimism clearly proves to be unfounded . yet again .

" a broken toe , " miranda says slowly . " how unfortunate for him . " of all people , it had to be chanel ' s very own count dracula . she admires karl 's commitment to artistry , of course . but that does not mean she will be rebuffed so easily by that ghoul . or his assistant . and really , his toe ? even her girls could come up with a better excuse . miranda sighs . so hard to find reliable people these days . she gives emily a long look - the sort of non - descript glance that has half of the office cowering before she ' s hardly said anything of substance . sadly , it won ' t work on karl himself . but his dimwitted assistant might quit and escape to swindon . " now , emily . please do enlighten me . . . why did karl not deign to inform me of this personally ? "

firstassistant

with miranda's cold delivery , it was smooth , silky and icy , it could cut through her and make her bleed out all over valentino . . . absolutely not . cerulean eyes fixed on the montblanc , would miranda kill her with it ? all because of bloody lagerfeld . emily swallows her next breath , perhaps anne boleyn had compassion shown to her than in the walls of elias clarke . fiddling with a page in the notebook , her knuckles practically turning white as she clung to it . desperate .

❛ his assistant wouldn't let me speak to him , he's in the air . . . on his way to morocco . ❜ she tries her best to keep her vocals confident , smooth and light . emily knew this would happen . karl bloody lagerfeld ! miranda's eyes melted through her , suddenly it was crystal clear that she had disappointed her . . . yet again . she's so desperate for her approval . ❛ miranda , i tried to speak to him . i- i did ask that he calls back when he lands , i really did try . ❜ almost pleading her case , she scribbles the number ingrained into her brain . in exactly three hours and twenty seven minutes , karl will ring back . he has to . ❛ i'm sorry , miranda . ❜

#I'M THE FIRST ; aesthetic .#icon legend moment #i love her so much #she's such a toxic person but she's just so fucking cool

a flurry of frazzled stylists leave the office . . . all of them looking stressed , beaten , disengaged and nervous . a sight she's used to , honestly , if only they could do what miranda asked of them . immediately , she appears in the doorway ready with her notebook and pen . ❛ your facialist has been scheduled for three fifteen . ❜ having no junior assistant really was such an inconvenience , she's doing everything single handedly .

❛ and . . . well , l - lagerfeld has cancelled your ten o'clock tomorrow . apparently he's broke his toe . ❜ so bloody selfish . she's slightly nervous with the changes to her schedule . christ , is she sweating ? ❛ his assistant confirmed he can do three weeks from today . . . which , obviously i told them wasn't good enough . ❜ bollocks .

bloody hell , this was far too stressful and was definitely the cause of an emerging migraine . pinching her nose , scuttling away a swarm of mithered stylists before she purses her lips and straightens her posture . taking a deep breath , it was her reputation on the line . . . she had to deliver . appearing behind emma frost , inspecting her creation . she smiles warmly , another visionary piece . ❛ if you hate it , i will charge you triple my usual fee . ❜ smirking .

inspecting the fabrics and how they blend together , the array of diamonds capturing the height of sophistication and glamour . this was the reason emily charlton was a marvel when it came to superhumans . ❛ i have a seamstress upstairs who is cut to ribbons . . . it's worth every drop of blood spilled . ❜
