[The festival is tonight, so Forrest hopes he'll be able to catch her before she gets too absorbed in things.]
no subject
Mr. Forrest - please, come join me. Have you had breakfast already?
[ She gestures to a meal in front of her that includes a steaming teakettle. ]
no subject
[Of course it does, but this is Forrest, so he feels compelled to comment on it anyway. Knowing a thing or two about Hoshidan customs and how many of them carry over to Japanese ones here, he slips his own shoes off before entering.]
Only something light. I wanted to make sure to catch you before you got too busy with the festival preparations. Breakfast sounds lovely.
no subject
This is a lighter garment known as a yukata. It is made of lighter fabric than the kimono area, for breathability in summer months. Noble men and women of all dispositions dislike wearing our full kimono during this time, but it is the way of things in formal settings.
[Mercifully, the festival will go into night-time, so she knows it'll be cooler by the time they expect her to make an appearance.
Her meal is grilled salmon, white rice, miso soup, and strawberries. Thus, for Forrest, she scoops out some of the miso soup for him and offers that, before also giving him a small dish of strawberries like hers. ]
no subject
Oh, so that's the difference! I'd heard the word before, but I was never entirely sure. There's a country neighboring mine called Hoshido at home that has many of the same kinds of styles, and I'm only starting to become familiar with how to make them.
[And the food she's serving is familiar to him, too. He's cooked similar things himself before. Miso soup is new, though.]
Ah, thank you. It all smells wonderful.
no subject
[Said only because he remarked on the similarity between Hoshido having a similar clothing style, so she wonders if she's misunderstanding an accent, or perhaps a local word for the same place.]
I wonder if the name has changed lately? I have not visited the Near Shore in so long... Is it not the northernmost prefecture and region of Japan? A large island known for its snowy months?
no subject
No, it's definitely not an island country - it has vast land holdings, and neighbors my father's country of birth, the kingdom of Nohr. And I haven't heard much about snowy weather there, except in the mountains.
no subject
Strange. How the maps change on the Near Shore these days.
[And she continues to eat her breakfast a bit more.]
no subject
[Forrest smiles, politely working away at his own breakfast.]
Thank you for taking the time to help me improve my craft. I was wondering... do you think you could show me how to make enchanted garments?
no subject
Teach you? Well... I wonder.
[She sets her tea back down.]
So many things I have never considered before, without a student... I am capable of making enchanted garments myself, but I did not think it a common power among the gods.
no subject
no subject
[She shakes her head a little, but more in thought than being dismissive.]
What I would be able to do - for a start, and what I had been expecting when I agreed to an apprenticeship - is at least teach you some of the ways that I have had to build different clothing for different shapes of gods. Another that has come up recently is some of the ingredients I use to enchant clothing at all.
[She holds out her hand forward on the table, a gesture in the same place of conversation that other people might shrug.]
Perhaps if I teach you these methods, something neither of us expect will happen anyway.
no subject
Of course. I'd be happy to learn whatever you have to teach. If nothing else, the experience will be valuable and I'll be able to broaden the horizons of my own knowledge.
no subject
[If she knew about portfolios, she'd ask for one.]
no subject
no subject
[She appraises him.]
I had thought you were quite young still, never mind being a young journeyman. Am I mistaken? Are you in fact one of the old gods?
[She looks worried like she's made a misstep in her treatment of him.]
no subject
No, I've just had a keen interest in making clothing ever since I was a child. Any talent I have now stems simply from a deep personal passion and years of practice.
no subject
Perhaps... as you are indeed one of the new gods... you might take on a special project that can test your skills and show me what you are capable of. You may ask for my assistance in enchanting the garment, or garments, but they must be your own design instead of mine.
Your subject... the one I have in mind, anyway, would be the god Fuujin. Create something that might raise his esteem of you.
[[OOC: Forrest has discovered an opportunity for a Mission! If you would like, he would be allowed to take on a Mission similar to M07 that instead focuses on trying to appease Fuujin through the creation of something Forrest has sewed and crafted. It can be one or several items of clothing and it does not have to be for Fuujin himself. In the course of it, Orihime can show him one or several minor enchantments she might be capable of, to start his apprenticeship.]]
no subject
[Forrest hasn't met him personally, but he's heard his name here and there. He hadn't expected such a task right off the bat, but he's as confident in his skills as ever, and nods back to Orihime.]
I'll speak with him, then, and get right to work. Thank you for giving me this chance, Lady Orihime. I'll do my best.
no subject
[She keeps her instructor's air as best she can, but she's kind of excited too. She's never had a student before.]
Do you have any additional questions for me at this time?
[[OOC: This will expend a Prayer/Mission slot for Forrest. The conditions are as follows, similar to the M07 Appeasement prayer. Should he desire to include other characters in this Mission, you should reply to the Prayers post including those characters so that their prayer slots can also be account for:
If these terms are acceptable and you do choose to respond to the Prayer page with helpers, you can write in "Personalized" for the Prayer/Mission number.]]
no subject
[Forrest is having a hard time hiding his own giddiness. He never thought he'd be in a position like this, learning about fashion from an actual goddess known for producing fine clothing.]
No, I think I should be all right. I'll need to think about what to make.
no subject
[And she continues to eat her breakfast, but tilts her head and smiles. It should be exciting no matter what he puts together, she thinks.]
