Raise a glass and toast the Flame

[floreatnoctem]

Who: Chidori and OPEN
Where: Floor 15
When: Throughout the week
What: It's getting colder- Chidori figures that everyone can use a bit of help keeping warm.
Warnings: None as of yet, subject to change if anything comes up.



[The offer she'd made was more to give her something to do other than think about the cold than any real show of good will. Granted, it was that, in her own way- after all, it would do her no good if people were too sick to fight. While she wasn't sure it would be called for, it was Jason's month to be in charge of the tower. She was already anticipating the worst, no matter how quiet things had been for the first week or so of his turn. She'd be stupid to let her guard down so quickly, or so easily. Still, she wasn't sure anyone would see her announcement- or if anyone would even bother to look at such a brief post- but better to try than not at all. In the meantime, she had Strega's measurements more or less memorized, she could get started on them first.

So moving to find some fabric, she decided to start on a coat for Ken before anything else, trying hard to keep her hands from shaking and grateful, somewhat, for the fact that Medea's fire affinity was seeing fit to keep her warmer than she should be. Hopefully, the cold wouldn't affect her sewing too badly.]

That's fine. I don't want to make any unreasonable or impossible requests so if it's not possible, I'll take what I can get.

[floreatnoctem]

It's fine, really. I will see what I can do to accommodate. Would you mind terribly holding still for measurements?

[concept_killer]

[He makes his way further into the room.]

I don't mind.

[floreatnoctem]

Thank you- if you'd please just hold your arms out and away from your sides, I'll make this as quick as I can.

[concept_killer]

Alright.

[He follows the given orders without complain, holding out his arms so they were horizontal.]

[floreatnoctem]

Thank you.

[Chidori moves around him with practiced ease- since he asked for a cloak, she doesn't have to take too many measurements, but she takes the ones she does need quickly and carefully.]

[concept_killer]

[After a moment of where it feels like nothing is happening, he drops his arms.]

Finished?

[floreatnoctem]

Yes, thank you.

[There's the scratch of pencil on paper, and the rustling of fabric as Chidori looks through what's in the workroom.]

It shouldn't take me more than a couple of days. Might I have a name?

[concept_killer]

Satsujinki.

[He prefers to go by the title given to him by others, which meant 'killer', than his real name. Mostly because another him existed around here and it would suck to get confused with him.]

I'll keep my ears open for something.

[floreatnoctem]

[She pauses as she hears the name- there could be, of course, other meanings, but the one that she thinks of first is far from pleasant.]

An interesting name. I'll be sure to let you know when it's finished somehow.

[concept_killer]

R-Right. [He was never fond of it but it was what he's been going by for a few years.]

In the meantime, if there's anything I can do in repayment, let me know. I don't think I can take no for an answer.

[floreatnoctem]

I'll think about it.

[She's not going to go all 'but you're blind' on you, but honestly. It's true.]

In the meantime... what would be the easiest way to get a hold of you?

[concept_killer]

Leaving a note outside of 3-14 is simplest. Don't worry, I can find someone to read it easy enough.

[floreatnoctem]

Understood. I'll do that as soon as I'm done, in that case.
