I

[otoko_no_roman]

So it would appear that not only do I seem to be lost, but this weather really isn't agreeing with me- not a spot of shade in sight, can you believe it? It's a good thing I always carry a parasol- oh and I do love this one- I added the roses on the edge myself and it matches my current outfit

... I'd think clothes would be the least of your worries now.

[otoko_no_roman]

Oh no, definitely not the least! Clothes make the man, isn't that how the saying goes?

[doubleppk]

Occasionally but without food and shelter clothes don't do a man much good.

[otoko_no_roman]

Hm. Well, you do have a point there, yes!

[doubleppk]

Fujiko Mine. Nice to meet you.

You from around here?

[otoko_no_roman]

Ayame Souma! A pleasure, Mi- Ha ha ha! I happen to have a Mine-chan that works for me at my clothing shop! But that's neither here or... well, definitely not here. Hm. Well, nevertheless!

I'm not from around here at all, otherwise I would have had to be drunk as I'd find no reason to choose to be out here otherwise!

[doubleppk]

Oh? First name or last? It's not very common.

Ah. What did you do in your world? I might be able to find a place for you.

[otoko_no_roman]

First, actually! Not common at all though, yes!

Me? I suppose the most accurate thing to say I do is tailoring! I own my own shop you know, and do all the designs and sewing myself! Ah, with Mine-chan's assistance!

-but you make it sound like I'll be here a while..!

[doubleppk]

Surname for me. I haven't ever met another last-name Mine. Small family tree you could say.

I see. I think Reborn might be interested in that. Or Renge. You should speak with Tsuna or Reborn if you get the chance though.

And you probably will be here awhile. The only ways I know of to get back are via Mokona and miniature giant space hamster. I don't know why you'd want to go back though.

[otoko_no_roman]

Oh, I see!

Hmmmmm..... All right! I'll certainly make a note about them! Thank you!

That's a shame though... I'd like to at least plan a little before taking a vacation! But I suppose it's only fortunate that I'd just finished all my current orders so.... Well, Mine-chan can handle things while I'm gone! -I'm quite curious as to how one travels by miniature giant space hamsters! That sounds terribly contradicting, doesn't it?

...but there are plenty of reasons to want to go back! Business! Family... Well they're not all bad- although I see one estranged member is actually around here, somewhere!

[doubleppk]

Mm-hm. Good luck darling.

Boo is a special case. He's a very strange hamster.

Oh? The orange-haired kid? You could always set up business here of course.

[otoko_no_roman]

Thank you very much again!

-I should like to see this strange hamster!

Yes, yes! Kyonkichi is so very excitable! ...well, I suppose I will have to make do with the situation. I might very well take your advice- and once I get something set up, I'll be happy to make something for you if you would so like!

[doubleppk]

No problem.

You'd have to talk to Minsc. He doesn't part easily with him.

Oh~? I'm rather particular about my clothing choices. Practical reasons you understand. Leather, no lace, that sort of thing. Lucci can go to hel with his bitching though.

[otoko_no_roman]

Oh, I'm in no particular hurry to see a hamster at the moment anyway!

It's important to be practical sometimes, yes! I do custom designs though, and although I'll admit leather is tricky to work with, if that's what your preference is, I'll see what I can do!

[doubleppk]

Mm.

It's usually more ah shall was say~ supportive? I'm something of a unique size in Japan or anywhere as I'm sure you can gather. And it's protective.

[otoko_no_roman]

My dear, custom means as custom is! I'm quite flexible with things so long as the customer gets what they want! Never have I left any unsatisfied!
