Oh, hello! I'm sorry...I don't believe I know you. Well, I suppose the proper thing to do would be to introduce myself. My name is Cecelia Foster, and I work in my father's tailor shop. Henry Foster, perhaps you've heard of him? Anyways, a little about myself. I suppose my three favorite things in the world are the written word, the company of others, and creating things.
Do I have friends? Not many, but I certainly wouldn't be opposed to getting acquainted with anyone. Papa always says I'm much too shy, and I do enjoy getting to know people. Perhaps we could convene for tea sometime?
Enemies you say? Well...I do my best not to have any, but I certainly don't like to associate myself with unsavory folk. Drunkards, gamblers...those sort of people.
Am I romantically attached to anyone? I'm afraid my romantic prospects are rather slim, if not nonexistent at the moment. Perhaps one day I shall find a nice gentleman who could change that.

Right, so, first off, hallo! I'm Sophia and live in Bavaria. I used to watch Gone with the Wind all the time with my nana and my dad, so when I saw she was Cecilia's pb I had a little squee of excitement. Anyhow, I have two ideas:
Konrad's brother Karlheinz works for a tailor somewhere in the city. I'm not entirely sure what he does, but it sounded good when I put it into the app, and anyway, if he didn't work for Cecilia's father, he could work for someone else and have something to do with them, in which case Konrad could accompany him at some point and make friends and what not.
Or, my other idea was that Konrad's mother is a seamstress and might employ her six-year-old, Viktor, to stand round tailor's shops, luring potential customers away from the shops with lower prices and examples of her work. He could do that in front of their shop, and start up some hubub between them, in which Konrad might be called to save his brother/mitigate peace/whatever you think would work.
These are just random ideas, so, as always, feel free to add/drop/change/whatever suits you!

Well, Cecelia's father IS looking for an apprentice (I don't believe women were allowed to own property or a business at the time, so Cecelia couldn't inherit her father's business). Perhaps Konrad or one of his brothers would like to interview for the position?

Cecilia and Agnes might conceivably know each other or meet and become friends. Agnes does sewing work for an unspecified dressmaker in town and so might have something to do with the shop in one way or another. Perhaps Cecilia could endeavour to help Agnes improve her speech?

I don't see why not! Although teaching certainly isn't her trade, she still enjoys helping people in any way she can.

All right, so Konrad's brother could be unhappy with his current position and go and apply, and Konrad could accompany him.

Okay guys!
Cece's been kind of sleepy, RP-wise, so let's get a thread or two going, shall we? ^_^
