[ why are we always in clothing stores im in tears. ANYWAY we are at cloud nines in preparation for pardi! at the moment, ichiban is picking through a selection of menswear, some suits set aside on a bench for further consideration. nancy, with a cute little flower tucked behind one of her antennae, is doing her best to be an extra hand... but sadly, she can't make up for a wholeass missing arm. they're making it work, though, because as rondo wanders in, he's holding a black suit up to his neckline as she chirps helpfully (?). ]
What do you think, Nancy? Too stuffy? ... Yeah, bringing funeral vibes to the party isn't exactly the look I wanna be going for...
[ oh...! as rondo's wandering around cloud nines, he comes trotting over right as he hears ichiban talking - his emotions perk up immediately, curiosity flickering into delight. the emotion of affection and friendship! nakama, if you will. ]
I think that looks nice, Sir Ichiban! [ he puts a hand on his chest and bows, briefly, as always. ] Do you need any assistance? Besides Miss Nancy's expertise, of course.
[ WAH... CUTE... RONDO!!! ichiban also gives off a blip of joy when rondo comes around, setting the coat he'd been looking at on the bench and waving. ]
Oh, heya, Rondo. Yeah, I could use a hand trying some of this stuff on... normal clothes are one thing, but trying to wriggle my way into fancy suits is something I must've taken for granted when I had the luxury of all four limbs, heh.
[ he immediately trots right over, coming to pick up the coat! here he can help you try it on - he holds it out for him obediently. this is nice... it feels like deja vu! to much happier times, way back on the animal crossing island. ]
It worries me that you were put into this state, here, Sir Ichiban, but I'm glad that you've at least been able to adjust to it relatively quickly... [ there is a brief flicker of worry in his emotions, too, matching with concern. ] If there's anything specific you're looking for, I'd be happy to help you find it, too.
[ my brain autocorrected "obediently" as "submissively" so there is such a vibe here.
rondo's cheer is mirrored in ichiban's fondness as he shrugs the coat on with the knight's help, letting out a quiet laugh. ]
Haha, you're tellin' me, man. Still... an arm's a small thing to pay in exchange for another person's life. I'd make the same decision even if I got the chance for a do over. [ with the coat on, he glances at himself in the mirror... ] Mm, yeah, this one might be a lil' too drab... you got any idea what you're gonna go with?
[ that's not wrong. rondo helps him shrug the coat on, and gives it a little tug, brushing off his shoulders for him and then stepping back. his emotions ping with the sensation that he's impressed, which... only continues as ichiban talks?
honestly, rondo looks up to him so much, and it shines here. he smiles, visible in the reflection. ] Heh... I know what you mean.
[ ichiban is so cool... he's really earned his sir title. oh! at the question, though, he looks around at the racks and shakes his head. ] I haven't. I thought I would just wear my uniform, honestly, but Miss Aerith said I should try to find something else...
W5, TUESDAY
