... would it be too selfish of me to ask you to just keep talking to me...? Even just over the gear like this...? I... I know it must not sound right, but... I don't want to sit here just thinking about them and nothing else...
Oh, I know! It's absolutely dreadful! The weather here acts on it's own accord--which can be very inconvenient.
Pardon me for a moment. [She sets the 'gear down as she slides into a light jacket--that was about all she had for the time being, but it was warm enough. Then she picks the 'gear up again as she starts out of her room and then out of the inn.]
So then... After winter--since the weather here is obviously not controlled--what do humans customarily do to prepare for spring?
Erm... I think that's... normal for most places... Unless you have a weather machine or something.
*Shaking his head a bit at her question.* I don't think we really do anything... There are holidays and such to celebrate certain seasons, but... that's about it?
[And then she remembers that not everyone has pegasus ponies to run the weather like the majority of Equestria did.]
A weather machine, no. Pegasus ponies, yes. Back where I am from, they gather the clouds for rain and snow, and then clear the clouds for sunny days. Our weather report depends upon them. Sometimes it can be subject to change.
[A bunch of useless information she was spouting, but hey... she's trying to get his mind off of his situation for at least a little while.]
And that's good. Holidays I can handle~ [Winter wrap up in a strange place? Not so much.]
*The flat out absurdity of that... is actually making him shift from that sulky and depressed tone to just one of... disbelief.*
Pegasus... ponies...? That control the weather... *Parroting it to try and... confirm that's what he heard.* It... really sounds as if you come from a very... unique place.
*He lets out a small sigh though, once he trails back to the holidays.*
Mm... You'll have a lot to figure out, if you're not familiar with them.
This is a unique place. You see, I had never once heard of humans before coming here. As you can imagine, this is quite an experience.
[Quite an experience, but she's still a little homesick. But that shouldn't be what she's concerned about right now!]
I still have a lot to figure out anyway. What's one more thing to add to the list? Speaking of which--when I get back to sewing and get the hang of designing human clothes... I simply must make you something.
[Her face lights up a bit at the very thought of it.]
Ah... Not even once...? That's... kind of surprising. It really is unique if there aren't any humans there...
*And once she says that, he looks caught off guard. He knew he said he wanted to see her clothes, but he still isn't all that certain he would be all that suited for wearing them.*
Make... me something? Are-- are you sure about that...? I'm... um... I'm not exactly the best model or anything... I'm sure there are a lot of other guys more suited for clothes made by someone as fashion conscious as you are...
Hayate, darling... Would you like some company? Sometimes being all by yourself only makes things worse.

Mm... While I appreciate the offer, I wouldn't exactly be the best of company right now, Rarity-san...

[Mama Rarity thinks you really need a hug. D:]
I was just about to go on a walk to get some fresh air. You are more than welcome to join me if you want to. And if you don't, I understand.

... I'm really sorry, Rarity-san. I... I don't think I want to go out today... I get the feeling I would just be dragging my feet the whole time...

[She offers him a sympathetic smile.]
If there is anything that I can do to help, darling... Please let me know.

[She's still going for a walk. She's been cooped up inside all day and a bit of fresh air sounds like a good idea.]
I can talk with you for as long as you like.
[She's not really doing anything anyway; except going for a walk.]

I already have so many ideas for outfits!
