A-alright t-then. So the danger seems to have p-passed for t-the most part, but c-can you r-really tell in a place like t-this?

Ugh, this is what this place is always like, isn't it?

[Veronica vents a small groan. This place wasn't very fun anymore.]

A-anyway, while we're in d-down time, I-I'd like t-to m-make a request.

Does anyone know how to repair clothing? I-I got a p-package a long t-time ago of torn clothing that I'd l-like mended.

How badly damaged is it?

[video]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

The f-fronts were clawed at, b-but other than that they're pretty good.

I even washed them.

[fionnuisce]

If you happen to have a needle and some thread, I'll give it a try. I'm no tailor, but I might be able to do a passable job.

[video]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

Neither am I, w-which is w-why I'm asking f-for help.

I d-don't, but can f-find a needle and thread. I c-could also m-mail it all t-to you, if you want.

[fionnuisce]

You don't need to go to all that trouble. It's no issue for me to meet you in person if that's simpler for you.

[stitchedupbodyguard]

[It's just how she works.]

O-oh, sure. W-we could m-meet on the first dorm floor then, if t-that w-works.

[video]

[fionnuisce]

Very well. I'll be there shortly, if you're not otherwise occupied.

[video>Action]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

N-no, I'll be there.

[And she leaves the terminal and goes back up to the dorms, but not before a quick stop on the sewing floor of course.

And, soon enough, she's in the dorm hallway, sitting on the floor against the wall. A cardboard box is at her side, a protective arm around it.]

[fionnuisce]

[The magus approached with a slight wave of his hand, adjusting the sunglasses on top of his head before speaking.]

Hello--I hope finding sewing materials wasn't too difficult.

[stitchedupbodyguard]

[She shakes her head and produces the supplies from the inside of her cloak.]

Nope. Only h-had t-to fight two monsters t-to get it. Nothing special.

[fionnuisce]

Sorry about that. Maybe I should have gone myself and spared you the trouble.

[Sounding genuinely apologetic, Waver sat down next to her and took the supplies.]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

...I w-was being sarcastic, actually. It's f-fine. I c-could handle it.

[She gives him the smallest hint of a smirk and stands up, holding the box in both arms.]

Here they are... t-they've b-been like t-this for a while.

[fionnuisce]

Oh...right. Sorry about that, I must be a little distracted today.

[Waver stood up as well, glancing over the box and what it held.]

[bashfulshifter]

...It looks like Waver's already taking care of that for you, but if you need some other clothes made, I'd be happy to help!

[stitchedupbodyguard]

This is the c-clothing.

[With some hesitation, she held the box out to him.]

...B-be careful with them.

[text]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

Heh, uh yeah he is.

Thanks for the offer though. The clothing mean a lot to me.

[text]

[bashfulshifter]

Sounds like it. ["Arrived in a package," she says...] ...Another present from the administrators?

[text]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

[She nods slowly.]

The f-first present. From w-way back.... like w-when you got your... ring...

[text]

[bashfulshifter]

[Oh--those presents.]

I understand. At least they're fixable; they'll give you something nice to remember, I hope.

[He would ask, but...open network post. Don't want to embarrass her. Perhaps later.]

[text]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

Yeah, they will.

It'll be really nice to have something else from home.

[fionnuisce]

I will, I assure you. Even if I'm no expert at things like this, I'm no horrible clumsy mess.

[Waver took the first article of clothing in the box out carefully, examining it.]

Hm...that doesn't look too difficult, actually.

[text]

[bashfulshifter]

...Are you sure you don't want me to make you some warm clothes? I mean, I'm not trying to replace what you got or anything, I just don't want you getting cold next month.

[stitchedupbodyguard]

They were a lot worse when I got them. At least now they're washed.

[fionnuisce]

Is this something you got from the administrators? [Waver sat down with his back to the wall, setting himself to work with an attempt at casual conversation.]

[text]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

[There's a pause in the text.]

You would make something for me?

...Well, sure. I mean, if it's not too much trouble for you.
