I thought it seemed like a good idea, yes! [He claps his hands together, obviously pleased.] And you too, Vietnam-san?

[The last time they attended the same kind of event, he's pretty sure it was the one where she kicked his ass, so something pleasant like this sounds nice too.]

It will be very good to see you there. Will the others go to? [She gives a small nod before looking a little bashful.] I am, I helped out a bit so I should probably go. Even so I would've went anyway.

[She might be quiet but she does like parties. Also yes it's a good idea since they need to bond peacefully?!]

Hmm well, I can't speak for everyone else, but Yasusada-kun agreed to come! [Which is really good because you wouldn't believe, for what a cute and well-mannered sword Yamato is, how much he totally shoots down like 90% of all ideas suggested to him. This is an achievement!?]

But that's good to hear! I hope you aren't too busy in light of that though, because I was hoping to ask you for a favour - ah, about what we'd discussed before? I thought it might be nice if Yasusada-kun had something to wear, but he's not fond of modern clothes, so...

He did? That's nice! I would like to see him there too. [It's true, Vietnam would've thought Yamato would've agreed immediately considering how he likes fun. In his definition.]

If it is a favour for either of you, I will definitely do my best. [and if it is to do with clothes even easier!] What do you have in mind for him?

Mm, he's been working hard, so he probably deserves a time to relax as well! [Kinder to Yamato than he is to himself, tbh. As for that favour:]

If we had the pattern to make a furisode, I was wondering if you could help me to make one for him. That way he could have something special to wear as well! It seems to be that kind of event, after all. Though, I don't want to trouble you if you're busy since it's coming up so soon ー I'm sure others must be thinking along similar lines.

He had, I'm glad to see he is still looking happy. And that you are looking well too. [don't worry she's there to worry about him too!]

I do, from some previous orders. One can get dressed up for these parties, I'm am planning for myself too. I have time for Yamato's furisode, I work very fast. Do you have a design? And is there anything you want for yourself as well?

Ah, thank you, Vietnam-san! It's really a relief to hear...

[BECAUSE IN ALL HONESTY... He hasn't been feeling so hot lately; the fact that she mentions as much makes him relax a little, looking somewhat relieved about the fact.]

I thought that if I were to have shorter sleeves, or maybe find a way to keep these flat. [Sheepishly, he rubs at his arm, over the new fins that line from his wrist to his elbow. He's wondering if a ribbon might do the job well enough, honestly.] I don't think I necessarily need anything custom-made. So I'll be fine! As for a design... Hmm... It would be nice if he had something that wouldn't look out of place with his haori, since he probably won't want to leave that behind.

[WHO DOES ah the monster life...she's really happy to see him though TIME TO DOTE.] It could be bias. [She's not joking though.]

I will try! Do they hurt? [Because it doesn't hurt her as much, since her fins are rather soft.] If you believe so, though! But ah, if he wants something to match his haori, then it will have to be shades of blue, no? Or something that compliments it.

[A fun time all around, apparently. He seems amused at her comment.]

No, it just feels a little uncomfortable to have them like this. [It's tough to get used to random extra appendages; he's not sure how fairies deal with the extra arms, or naga with tails.] But I think that sounds right! Ideally it would have a colour that makes it stand out as well. I want to say red, but... I wonder if that might be too bold?

[He's biased, he has a favourite colour.]

[Clearly they need to be those people at the party too: hogging a couch all to themselves in a group and just chatting.]

Ah, then it might be okay to bind them close to you, yes. I sometimes do it. [Like pants, even though she's fallen out of habit of wearing them, having been wearing more skirts instead. It's easier to take them on and off to go swimming.] I think red might be good! Since it'll highlight some of the blue as well, as long as we don't over do it.

[It's okay...it's her favourite too.]

[No harm in that!! Honestly it's meant to be fun, so you know.]

Mm, especially since I'll need to be able to move my arms when I use my vessel. [Swordplay needs a lot of maneuverability so, like a tasuki, but for fins... Sounds simple enough, especially if all he needs is a piece of ribbon. He lights up a little bit at her mention of colour though.] Do you think so? Then, I suppose the only question now would have to be the patterning. It would be nice if it was something that would complement "mountains", don't you think?

[Nice taste. He knew he liked Vietnam for a reason!!]

[Sounds like a good outing in their case!]

Oh yes, you do need to be able to fight. Understandable. Maybe we can make gloves for that purpose too. [It could be easier for him to fight that way, having it more securely tucked. Since they're on the same page here, she smiles.] Ah, something that would complement mountains...clouds? Autumn leaves? [And Yamato is a harpy too, which is why she remembered those two things: he flies and he has a nest.

Horikawa and Vietnam, when great minds thing alike because of similar tastes...merfriends.]

Do you think that's fine? I wondered if gloves might be too hard to wear like this, and besides, my wrist-guards don't really need any alterations. [Unless she means something along the lines of grip; for him, he had dismissed the idea of wearing gloves practically as soon as he saw his his hands were.] Ahh, those sound nice though. I'm sure that he'd like something like that!

[Honestly, best combo? Stylish and practical.]

[Indeed she meant stuff for that! Besides, she can sew ones for him.] Yes! It will have to be specially made for you, depending one what you want held together. [She looks relieved, because this looks like it's going to be A-OKAY.]

Then...ah let's see...I believe I have some fabric already with leaf patterns, I will just need to find something with clouds. [SO BEAUTIFUL AT THE BALL.]

Ah... In that case, maybe I'll stop by after all some time. Though, I'm sure you'll be receiving plenty of orders up until the event, so I don't mind waiting! [Something he hadn't thought was a possibility before shouldn't exactly make a top priority list, after all, even if it may be convenient. For now, it would be bad if he imposed on Vietnam too much with the request that he's making already.]

Should I keep my eye out? If there's anything I can do, I'd like to be of assistance! I can even help with sewing ー though, I'm more used to simple patterns and mending things.

Anytime, Horikawa. I will definitely make time for you. [He's so selfless, so she doesn't mind spoiling him just a bit! He needs more stuff anyway, ways to show how much they appreciate him.]

If you like to help, that would be fine, like keeping an eye out! I don't mind help with cutting either. [She could show him how to use the sewing machine this way!]

I appreciate it! Thank you, Vietnam-san.

[Smile smile, sparkle sparkle! Honestly he's flattered that she would go to such lengths for him, but then again, she's been lending every one of them a hand since they first arrived. There shouldn't be any more surprise left in reserve for Vietnam's kindness, but somehow he still finds a way to be when that kind of generosity is directed his way.]

In that case, I'll do my best! I'm a fast learner, and I think I've taken on some of Kane-san and Master's style, so I hope that it can help.

You are very welcome! [Although she feels like he should only thank her when she's finished it first! Horikawa, too kind for this world...stop him...

Anyway, she's looking forward to working with him, because she thinks it would be a pleasant experience. He's so hardworking.]

I can't wait to see, since looking at how detailed you are normally in all your work, I think it's going to be very helpful, and nice.

It is, huh. It's always nicer to have good company during work, and it makes it seem easier too!

[Two heads are better than one, or something like that. At the very least, it helps the work get done twice as quick, and with half the effort; something that, to Horikawa, seems to be of importance considering that he would expect for Vietnam to have received plenty of orders in light of the upcoming event.]

Yes! Good company. We both may have been rivals in a game once, but I think we will work well together.

[Because if their friendly rivalry then told her anything, is that Horikawa is always so gracious.]

I would like to hope so! Hmm, I wonder if with this, perhaps I could assist you more often? You seem to be in quite high demand Vietnam-san. Especially when the fogs come in.

[She's doing good work as far as he's concerned ー adjusting to this kind of world and new bodies can be frustrating, but to have clothes that are at the very least practical, and in her case often stylish as well, can make a world of difference whether it's acknowledged or not. He may have done this or that for her in the past, but he's always for learning new skills, or putting old ones to new use to keep himself busy.]
