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!

[She meant to send a text. Oh well, this works too!]

Hi Forrest! I didn't know you taught classes too. I would love to take a sewing class and have one of your beauty treatments.

Corrin!

[Always happy to see his fearless leader.]

I'd be happy to have you in the class. What kind of treatment were you thinking of? Haircut? Manicure? Pedicure?

Thank you! I promise I will try my best! Hmm, I was thinking about a manicure. I never had one before and it looks like it would be a nice one. What color do you think would look good on my hands?

[With the war she's never had time to think about beauty treatments, though she has always been curious about it.]

Hmm... I think a metallic silver would look nice. It's subtle, but it'll play off the color of your hair.

[Forrest will totally take care of her.]

You think so? I've always wanted to try that color. I didn't know if it would look on me or not. If you think so I'll definitely try it.

[Thank you Forrest. Corrin really appreciates it.]

Oh! I wanted to ask you about lotions too. Um, what kind should I use?

Yes, I think the effect will be quite striking. I can even paint your toes to match if you'd like.

[Considering her usual mode of dress and all.]

Lotions... that's really more Midori's specialty. I haven't found anything here that quite measures up to what she made for me, but there are a few brands I've come to rely on.

[Corrin nearly can't believe she has enough time to do this now. She forgets the video is on and ends up look at her hands while trying to imagine how it would look on her. It sounds like it will be cute. She's all for it!]

Okay, let's try that color! Are you sure? I don't mind I didn't want to ask for anything extra after asking for the manicure.

[Since she won't be in battle as much anymore maybe she can have nail polish on her feet too.]

Oh yeah Midori was really good at that. I would like to hear about the brands you've used.

[Forrest can't help but giggle as he sees Corrin trying to envision how her nails will look.]

Of course! I always have time to help a friend look her best.

[He has a soft spot for people from home, really, so even if he was too busy he'd make it work.

I'll show them to you when you come in for your treatment.

Thank you!

[Corrin is excited. She will be able to have a nice nail color and visit Forrest's temple! She can't believe she'll be able to do two great things at once. It will be a chance for her to become closer to Forrest too.]

Okay! When should I come in? Hmm, what time works good for you?

Sometime this evening should be fine. Around 8 or so?

[Maria should be finished by then.]

Just knock at the front gate and I'll come and meet you.

Alright that sounds like a great time.

Okay, I'll see you around 8!

Mm. I'll see you then.

[We can move to action and timeskip if you like!]

[Yeah that works for me!]

[Around 8 when Corrin arrives, Forrest is there to greet her at the entrance to Lakshmi's temple.]

Welcome! Please, come inside.

[Corrin leaves a note for Tsubasa before she takes off for Forrest's temple. It's her first time visiting the temple that she can't help looking around in awe. It's so big and bright! It smells so nice too. She smiles and waves on her way over to him.]

Hi! Thank you! Your temple is really nice.

Thank you. It was a little overwhelming at first, but it's really starting to feel like home lately.

[Having friends over often helps with that.]

Follow me - I've got everything ready for you.

My temple felt that way at first too. I've grown comfortable in it now I got some things to make it more like home.

[The things she's gotten from the festivals recently has helped.]

Okay, thanks for setting everything up. Have you started giving treatments or is this something new you've started?

[She's really looking forward to having her nails done along with other beauty treatments.]

I used to do them with mother at home just as a hobby, but I did some at a sleepover at my temple a few months ago and they went over really well, so I decided to keep at it.

[He leads her into the back of his temple - a spacious room full of plenty of comfortable pillows to sit on. It looks like he's brought a few chairs in too, though. They're facing each other, and one of them is front of a makeshift foot bath.]

Here you are. Please, have a seat. You can soak your feet while I work on your fingernails.

Really? That sounds really sweet. I'm sure Sakura loved it.

[Corrin looks around while she walks over to the chairs. Everything looks and feels so nice around here. It really reminds her of the spas she's passed by back home when she had to rush from place to place. Now she has the time to enjoy it even if she a little self conscious about her feet. She takes care of them seeing as she walks without shoes all the times, but she's still a little self conscious about them. Still, she takes a seat in the chair and places her feet in the water. She giggles as she wiggles her toes.]

It feels a little funny.

[Corrin looks at her nails a bit before slowly holding them out.]

I do my best to take care of them. I don't know much about it except to keep my nails clean and cut them low for my sword use.

This was from before she arrived, but I'm sure she would have.

[Forrest smiles to himself as he gets his supplies ready, taking out a bottle of nail polish and one for the clear base coat.]

...Well, once she got used to the crowd, at least. Kairi invited everyone she knew so the party would be a success, and all of them showed up.

[He laughs to himself, remembering that night. It was hectic, but everyone had such a good time.]

That's really all you need to worry about on a day to day basis. This sort of thing is more about making an impression.

[Looking down and giggling himself at the sight of her toes wiggling in the bath, he gets started with the clear coat on her nails.]

The funny feeling in your toes might be the amrita. The water in my temple is infused with it.
