"I was wondering if I could ask assistance on a domestic matter? I recently had this odd demon run amok on the Nadesico and destroy several personal effects and was wondering if anyone would be willing to assist me on replacing them? Doing laundry every day is becoming rather bothersome and I'm a bit out of my element doing such a task on my own. Any assistance would be welcome."

I'd be happy to help, Ruri-san!

[electricyousei]

She nods looking actually embarrassed over deadpan.

"You would? I'd appreciate it. I've never actually gotten my own clothes before."

Video

[all_wound_up]

Of course! I think I know enough about sewing to fix them for you. I can help with the laundry, too.

Video

[electricyousei]

"Thank you. Though you don't need to do that, I just need help picking out new ones."

Video

[all_wound_up]

All right. I don't mind going with you. Maybe I can get some new clothes for the summer, too.

[greatseal]

You mean, it tore up all your clothes?

[electricyousei]

"Among other things yes. I have the uniform I was wearing at the time, a costume that doesn't fit me anymore and two gothic lolita dresses I bought when I was sharing someone else's memories that I'm a bit too embarrassed to wear. That and neither Yurika or Minato are here."

[She assumes Ruri isn't talking about her brother. No one would want to ask him for fashion advice.]

Gothic lolita might look good on you though.... But I can understand wanting something else. If you need some help, I have free time today.

[electricyousei]

If you saw her out in the town with it on it actually does look good on her, still its far flashier than she likes.

"I guess. Minato got me a few dresses like that but I was always uncomfortable with the attention I got in them. I have plenty of free time, I've just been working on my project in the Virgo district."

[greatseal]

Oh? What project's that?

[shadowsher]

Destroyed stuff? I don't know about replacing, but I could probably fix a few things depending on what they are. And, uh, I guess help with laundry...? [ He is not sure if helping a girl with her laundry is appropriate. ]

"Unless you know how to sew I doubt it can be repaired. Most of the non cloth damage has all ready been repaired by the ship's internal systems."

[shadowsher]

Sewing would be no problem. I made Kitten's clothes all of the time.

What's the fabric colour? I'll go find some matching thread.

[electricyousei]

"The one thing I really need sewn is brown, and that needs to be re-sized. The other things were shredded to the point I'm not certain its worth fixing them."

Video;

[shadowsher]

Hold on to the fabric anyway. You never know. [ He can at least try to mend them with his magic, anyway. ] I can do the re-sizing too. No problem.

[ Sewing is one of his few recognized talents. It's kind of exciting to feel useful too. ]

[heritors]

If you still require any assistance, I would be glad to help.

[ Just don't take her shopping with you. ]

[electricyousei]

"Do you know anything about clothes?"

[heritors]

Ah, for shopping? I must admit that I haven't had the chance to do such a thing in Hinoto-Ri... But I'd love the opportunity.

"I have very little experience with it. At home someone did it for me."

[heritors]

Then this could be a learning experience for the both of us. [ She gives a smile, albeit slightly awkward. Talking through a video screen is still kind of strange for her. ] My name is Lucina; it's a pleasure to meet you.

[genkibot]

.....What's laundry?

[electricyousei]

"Cleaning your clothes."

[genkibot]

Cleaning your clothes? You have to clean these things? I thought you just had to change them. And clean yourself.

[electricyousei]

"No, clothes need to be cleaned too, or the dirt on them will get on you."

Please, laundry is the ONE domestic thing Ruri can do, don't take this away from her.

[genkibot]

But I take showers and such to get rid of that dirt, so the dirt transferring from my clothes to me gets washed away anyways, right?

So couldn't I wear my clothes until the dirt is gone, then take a shower and then myself and my clothes would be clean?
