Hello, everyone. It's been a while since I've made an announcement like this, but I'm afraid I've been a little busy lately. I hadn't intended to stop taking clothing commissions, but I've been training with Lady Orihime over the past few weeks to learn more about creating divine raiments and it's been taking up most of my free time. I've finished my first major project, though, so I've got a little more flexibility lately.

I still won't be taking commission work until I've finished my training, but I do have enough time to open the temple up for beauty treatments. The pools in the garden behind the temple have healing properties and help keep skin soft, and I can also do hair and nail work for anyone who's interested. In addition, I'll be teaching a sewing class once a week at Hakkai's school. And once Lady Orihime is satisfied with my progress, I'll be able to start making clothing again too. So if anyone is interested in any of that, feel free to let me know and we can either set up an appointment at Lakshmi's temple or get you enrolled at the school.

[Forrest smiles, nodding at the feed.]

I'll be looking forward to hearing from you all!

You want to learn to do them yourself? Certainly, I don't mind showing you.

Thanks!

I'm available to come over then for whenever you're free. I'm not sure how your schedule is right now and I don't want to be too much of a bother.

Right now is fine if you'd like. I don't have any pressing engagements today.

[lostinshadows]

Alright then. I'll be over.

[clothes_make_the_man]

I'll be waiting for you. Just knock on the door when you arrive.

Will do!

[Just like he said, Forrest will be waiting outside the temple when Lavi gets there.]

[lostinshadows]

[As this will serve Lavi's first official meeting Forrest aside from being at Forrest's temple before during a sleep over, he tries not to waste any time in meeting the god.

So, the moment, he sees him, Lavi slows down and waves.]

Hi there!

[clothes_make_the_man]

[Forrest smiles, gesturing toward the open door.]

Hello, Lavi. It's nice to finally meet you one on one.

[He said polite hellos to everyone at the sleepover, but it was really hard to keep track of everyone.]

[lostinshadows]

[He'll give Forrest a nod of thanks as he enters the temple.]

Same here. Sora's told me some good things about you before.

[clothes_make_the_man]

I'm not surprised. Between the two of them, Sora and Kairi probably know everyone here.

[Forrest smiles, heading back toward the big open room where the sleepover was.]

[lostinshadows]

[A smile, growing a little more fond at the mention of Kairi.

But he does follow Forrest.]

I wouldn't be surprised. The two of them definitely seem like social butterflies, always wanting to talk to everyone and befriend them.

[clothes_make_the_man]

[Forrest, on the other hand, blushes just a little as he mentions Kairi.]

Mm, yes. I'm happy to know them both.

[lostinshadows]

[A blink before he looks over at him, noticing the blush.]

...Are you blushing?

[clothes_make_the_man]

Ah... yes. Kairi and I actually started dating recently.

[lostinshadows]

[That gets Lavi to perk up.]

So you're Kairi's boyfriend!

[clothes_make_the_man]

Th-that's right.

[Not that he's shy about admitting it, but the sudden recognition as such is a little embarrassing.]

Has she mentioned me?

[lostinshadows]

Not by name, but she mentioned something of the sort to me the last time we met.

[He gives Forrest a grin.]

You must be really something then, Forrest.

[clothes_make_the_man]

[The compliment just causes the blush to deepen, but it's received with a smile.]

I don't think I'm anything special, really. But I'm glad she does.

[lostinshadows]

[A chuckle escapes from him.]

Well, good to know you're the one she's going out with.

[Then:]

I kind of went off tangent there. Sorry about that.

[clothes_make_the_man]

No, it's all right!

[He could talk about Kairi all day.]

So, what kind of hairstyles did you want to learn?

[lostinshadows]

[A sheepish smile as he rubs the back of his head.]

Something simple, maybe? Then again, I'm not sure which hairstyles would be considered 'simple'.

[clothes_make_the_man]

I could show you how to do a simple braid, or maybe pigtails... though it would help to know a little more about the person whose hair you'll be working on. You're learning to do this for a friend, aren't you?

[lostinshadows]

Yeah, you got me there.

[He looks thoughtful.]

She's a bit shy, uncertain of herself sometimes, but she's a good person. So, I thought that helping her do her hair might help break her out of her shell a little more.

[clothes_make_the_man]

Well... I'll show you a basic braid, then. That shouldn't be too hard to manage.
