"In order to live, I will continue to fight. In order to retain my humanity, I will continue to destroy those who mean to harm my friends."

Ryuu then looked at the next item on the list. It was vanity clothes. What he didn’t know was what she wanted to clothes to look like. He scratched his head as he looked at the request for it and then took the list and showed it to her. He then asked her: “How would you like this to look?” he asked her. He began opening up the drawers so that he’d know what colors to take out from his stash of materials. It wouldn’t be too difficult to make vanity clothes unless there were a lot of designs to make. The more designs there were, the more time it’d take him to make the clothes, because that meant choosing different materials as well as detailing every single thing so that it looked to the specifications of the requester.

“And I assume you only want to use cheap materials for your vanity clothing? Since it’s not supposed to have any armor or defensive value to it, it only makes sense that you’d want to use the cheapest of materials to make it,” he said to her. If she said yes, then he’d take out only the level 1 materials for her, however if she said no, then he’d ask her to write down the level she intended it to be made with and then he would then make the clothes as she specified. With his deft thumb and hands, he’d be able to craft it in just a few minutes, hopefully barring any small details that she may want to add on to it.

[Haneroze]

Haneroze didn't know which item exactly Kumori asked about. There was still the vanity clothes and the accessories remaining. Since he said 'this' instead of 'them', and given that she had opened the notepad to her accessory drawings, she supposed he was talking about the vanity clothes and not the accessories. However, before Haneroze came to that conclusion, he was already looking away, searching for materials.

She walked to his right side as he continued asking questions. He had confirmed within his questions that he was talking about the vanity cloth. Haneroze nodded at his question, she did indeed want cheap materials. If there was any con to it, she was sure she would discover them in due time, and she'd change for better materials someday.

She then presented to him the dress she was wearing before trying the camisole. It wasn't a vanity item, and thus couldn't be worn at the same time as the camisole. That was why she wanted a vanity copy of it.

"In order to live, I will continue to fight. In order to retain my humanity, I will continue to destroy those who mean to harm my friends."

Ryuu nodded as she clarified what she wanted as her vanity dress. She gave him her old armor and he nodded. It seemed it’d be quite intricate to do the ribbons, so he decided to do the ribbons last. His main focus for now was to get the colors correctly. What he would make was a two layer dress for the bottom, however the top was a skin-tight mint green suit that was tightened in front. The material wasn’t latex or any of the sort, it was more comfortable, and closer to a cotton material. He felt that silk would be too hard to wash, so cotton would be a perfect outerwear material. He began cutting the top part so that it met her specifications, slightly, only slightly larger than the camisole in terms of size so that it would fit well without discomfort. He’d make holes for her arms and then leave the entire front unfastened. He inserted the leather laces so that he could tighten it up for Haneroze after he had her try it on. After measuring it as correctly as he could, he’d look towards Haneroze. “Put your armor on, raise your arms, and stay still,” he would instruct her. After she would do so, he would put the top part of the dress on her and then motioned for her to put her hands down. After she did so, he’d pull the leather laces tightly to tighten the woman’s clothes so that they would no longer be loose. After doing so, he checked to see that there was no loose fabric that needed to be removed. “Comfortable?” he asked as he waited for the answer. If she motioned that some part was uncomfortable, he would make adjustments as needed and then wait until he got the final approval.

After she gave the approval, he would work on the details, adding the streaks of seashell white onto the suit. After detailing how he needed, so that it had the seashell white accents, he then would have her put on the top part of the dress, and then have her look in the mirror. “Tell me what you think. The ribbons will come after I finish the bottom part of the dress. I plan to give you three versions for you to take… think of it as a service… A long skirt, a shorter skirt, and a mini skirt. You can switch them out, but they’ll have the same color schemes,” he said to her.

[Haneroze]

Haneroze smiled as she handed down her dress. She watched as Kumori went to work on the vanity dress, then went to sit on a nearby chair.

"Hmmmm... I don't have anything remaining to do while waiting, do I?"

She stood back up and slowly wandered around, looking at items everywhere. They didn't have much interest for her, but observing was always a good method of getting better as an artist, even if the item is meaningless.

As she was about to finish exploring the room, she saw Kumori head toward her, with an uncomplete copy of her dress. She followed Kumori's instruction as he put the dress on her. After he was done, Haneroze moved her upper body around. She didn't feel anything stretching, and it felt more comfortable with the camisole under. So she turned back toward Kumori and nodded with a smile as he asked if it was comfortable.

Haneroze gave back the dress to Kumori, then went back to observing the room as he went back to work. But soon she had already finished. She went back to sit on a chair. Unsure what to do, she opened her Interface, and looked around the different menus. She thought that maybe there was a feature she missed and did not know about, but didn't find any. It was sure that she had explored the whole interface. She closed it, then just looked forward, lost in her thoughts.

Moments later, she saw Kumori come back with the dress, except this time with the dress along with the design this time. She wore it again on the instructions of Kumori, then looked into the mirror he leaded Haneroze to. She felt it was silly thought, as she already knew how it looked like on her. So instead, she looked if there were any flaw, but couldn't find any.

She looked curiously at the tailor as he spoke of the three versions of the dress. But she showed dislike at the mention of shorter skit and mini-skirt.

"I don't want to wear the short skirts! I just want the long dress!"

She quickly shook her head left and right. Then, she showed her right hand with only the index lifted in order to say "one". She followed by crouching enough so that she reached the height of a bit over her feet with her hands.

"In order to live, I will continue to fight. In order to retain my humanity, I will continue to destroy those who mean to harm my friends."

“So you only want the mini skirt?” he said teasingly to reply to her shake of her head about having three different lengths of skirts. She even showed with her hand movements that she did not want it shorter than her knees, however, he’d ‘misinterpret’ the request by saying: “ So anything shorter than knee-length, gotcha,” he said. He wanted to get her to speak. At least a no of some sort or even actually telling him what she wanted. She hadn’t spoken much before, and he felt like this was a perfect opportunity to get her to speak. “If you don’t tell me what you want, I can’t make it the way you want it,” he said as he took out a shorter mint green fabric to ‘start’ tailoring the shorter skirt.

After she spoke or made sure he somehow made it the right length, he finally made the long skirt for her and put it on her. He made clasps so that they could be held up by the top part of the dress and the straps. He then started making the ‘belt’ ribbon which went around her waist and flowed all throughout the body. He tightened the ribbon around her waist and then wrapped it around her body so that it looked as it did when she wore it. He allowed her to look herself in the mirror and see if the dress was acceptable. If it wasn’t, he’d make the adjustments to her specification. The dress went past her knees, so it did not expose any critical areas and she would be content with it, rather than his short skirt or mini skirt idea.

[Haneroze]

Haneroze quickly regained her posture and shook her head stronger than the previous time as Kumori misinterpreted the height she wanted.

"How could he have understood that? Is he teasing me?" She showed her discontent on her face after the next thing Kumori said. "You already know what I want!"

She ran to pick her original dress and threw it on Kumori's face. And as soon as it was removed from Kumori's eye, either by the dress falling or by him taking it away, she pointed to the dress, still with her angry face, then turned away and walked toward a chair to sit on.

"Even my brother wouldn't pull that kind of teasing for that long!" Haneroze thought, with her head on her hands. She then sighed, losing her angry expression. "... I miss Dimitri... He really didn't join, right? If he had done that, he would surely be searching frenetically for me... But since he stayed in the real life, he must surely visit my comatose body often, or be searching for clues of my disappearance everywhere."

Haneroze lost herself in memories of her twin brother, until Kumori came back with the complete version of her vanity dress. She wore it and looked herself in the mirror. It looked good. She did a quick spin to see and feel the dress' reaction to a quick movement, and she was satisfied. She smiled and nodded at Kumori. Haneroze then went to pick her notepad and showed him the drawings of the two accessories she wanted.
