I'm going to take commissions for suits and dresses! I know we have a lot of people on campus who have unconventional body shapes, and that probably makes shopping in town pretty tough. But I think I can manage to sew something nice for anyone who needs it!

Mostly I just need the money to cover materials, so it shouldn't be too expensive unless you want really expensive fabric. The extra pocket money wouldn't hurt, of course, ha ha! Swaps are okay too if you can make something you think I'd need.

Let me know! I'll need at least a week or two of advanced notice so I have plenty of time to work on projects between classes and assignments.

If there really is going to be a ball, then I hope to see everyone there!

Oh!

If it is not too much trouble then, I can come along on the weekend perhaps.

[yokeye]

(★≧▽^))★☆
OF COURSE!
WE SHOULD HAVE LUNCH TOO!
TRY MORE FRENCH THINGS!

[leekspins]

It's no trouble at all! I've been wanting to explore town anyway. I can get a good sense of your tastes and preferences this way too.

My name is Orihime. I look forward to meeting you!

[betheman]

Noboru Gongenzaka.

Oh. Does this mean then that we can use Japanese when we meet?

That would be much easier.

[heromedal]

Nicer is a little subjective. I’d opt for something with as many pockets as possible and several layers, but I’d imagine that’s not the typical choice.

[ Nice = practical in Rex’s lexicon. ]

[leekspins]

Yes! I love French food! This is going to be an amazing trip!

[How can she not get excited about lunch? It's something she doesn't mind splurging on, even if it's cheaper to eat at the cafeteria. Besides, she'll get to eat with a friend and that's even better.]

What time should we go? Do you like to sleep in or get up early? I have to talk to one of the teachers about something, so I have to take care of that first. But afterward the day is free!

[leekspins]

Don't worry about typical, I can make some alterations. Do you want layers so you'll be warm, or so you can hide things in your clothes?

[leekspins]

Sure! I haven't grown rusty in my native language. I'm pretty good at French, so if you need me to handle the sales for other things, I can do that too.

[betheman]

French?

I am fluent in French, actually!

[FINALLY SOMEONE WHO HAS BOTH HIS LANGUAGES???]

Both are fine to speak to another!

[leekspins]

Yay! We defeated all the language barriers!

[She still struggles with English. She knows the terms and words, but hasn't really been immersed in any English-speaking cultures.]

See you this weekend!

[heromedal]

My apologies for the miscommunication- I’m unlikely to attend the event. I was just curious about it.

For reference, however, the latter.

[ Also it makes it harder to tell he’s a scrawny beanpole. ]

[betheman]

[They can now officially bond over English Being Hard, apparently.]

Yes! I will see you!

[leekspins]

Really? Why don't you want to go? It sounds like it's going to be fun, and the food is always good!

[heromedal]

I’m not one for parties.

[ He assumes, having never gone to one. ]

And the food here is already sufficient.

[yokeye]

AN AMAZING TRIP WITH AMAZING FOOD!
꒰✩’ω`ૢ✩꒱

[He doesn't care if she wakes him up and has nothing planned.]

WHENEVER!
┐(´ー｀)┌
JUST LET ME KNOW!

[leekspins]

[That doesn't really answer the question... But if he doesn't like parties, there's not much she can do to fix that.]

I suppose that's true. It's a shame! But I'll make you something nice just the same. I'll head into town this weekend to get materials, so if I can get your measurements before then, that would be great. You're also welcome to join me if you want to choose your materials personally!

[leekspins]

Yay, two cute emoticons in one text! It's a bargain!

I'll send you a text after I'm finished with the meeting then, and we can head out once you're ready. Is that good?

[heromedal]

[ There’s a longer wait between this reply and the others as Rex weighs up the pros and cons of accepting the offer. He does that with all sorts of things that don’t need strategic deliberation. Eventually- ]

I will consider your kind offer. I’d be interested in learning some of the process, in either case, if you wouldn’t mind explaining the differences and uses of materials if I accompany you.

[ He likes learning! Learning is the best. And since his current area of research is creating artificial spiritual life forms, knowing about clothes might be a good idea. Don’t want them running around nude. People might think he’s a perv. ]

[missleading]

Are you a sewing robot???
Or do you have other uses too?
Also how good are you about working on a budget?

[ That budget being basically for free. ]

[yokeye]

PERFECT!

Make sure you make people things they can move in easily. No dresses that could be a trip hazard, even if they're stupid enough to ask for it.

I saw some things.

[Private Text Forever]

[leekspins]

Don't worry, I want to make sure people can dance!

[Then she reads the next message, and that gives her pause. Tatsumaki had a vision...?]

What did you see?

[leekspins]

I don't mind one bit! Mostly it depends on what texture you prefer, and how good the quality is. Not everything should be fancy, since it takes a lot more effort to take care of it and whether you put it in the wash or have to bring the suit to the dry cleaners.

I should also mention that there's someone I spoke with can do a limited time spell if you want something temporary just for a special occasion, that's the most inexpensive option.

[leekspins]

I only wish I were a sewing robot! There's nothing cool or supernatural involved, though, it's just a normal hobby.

Anyway, I'm sure there are going to be certain fabrics on clearance! But if your budget is really really strict, I was talking to someone else who can change your clothes with fairy magic. It's only temporary, but that's definitely cheaper than buying supplies!

I don't know if it's going to be this ball or one further ahead in the future, but I saw daemons showing up and attacking students here with weapons and flame breath. It was in the ballroom and everyone was dressed up.
