Having been her first time travelling so far away from the village, she had heard of a tailor store on the land of Castanet from travelers who had visited her hometown. The journey which she took hopefully inspiring her into creating more garments, and perhaps to provide insight into different skills and designs.

Oh! Yes, of course, of course- by all means! [Pierre tries to slide over, watching as the poor girl tries to adjust the giant bag in her lap, obviously not very comfortable on the crowded train.] Is the… [He points up at the overhead compartment, trying to find the word for it.] … the thing full? Je ne me souviens pas le mot…

[Murmuring the last bit he uses his thin frame to his advantage and maneuvers out of his seat. Tugging his suitcase of out of the compartment he returns to his seat with it in his lap, lurching forward as the train shakes with a sheepish laugh.]

[The girl can’t help but to smile at Candace. She had such a nice, calm aura to her presence and her voice was almost soothing to listen to. Though she couldn’t help but notice the blue-haired girls pause at the little nickname given to her. She kept a mental note of it.]

Well, it’s okay. I was just going to clear out some more plots. Nothing too important! I’m actually glad you stopped by. I’ve already passed out one time during my stay here from overworking myself. A break here and there won’t hurt, especially if it’s a chat. [She fixed her grip on the tool in her occupied hand.] But I guess that pretty much sums up my moving process, hm? I’ve been working nonstop since I got here. The land was in real rough shape and I had the energy to start breaking it in. Kind of mad at myself for letting my health get where it did but, [she shrugged her shoulders] not that much of a big deal really. Just have to be more careful!

[Eyeing Candace, she tried to get a hint of what she might do on this Island but couldn’t find anything.]

[She hears a tiny voice behind her, almost not noticing it at first. She puts down her tilling hoe and leans on it, wiping the sweat of her brow to face the very blue looking stranger. She gives her a warm smile]

Ah! Hello there! Good morning! You must be a resident here right? I’m sorry for not introducing myself earlier. I’ve just been so busy with trying to keep up this property in tip-top shape I just haven’t had time yet to go down and meet the locals.

[Extending her free hand, she quickly looked down and saw the dirt on it. She smiled sheepishly, wiping it against the side of her shirt.]

If you didn’t count the horribly embarrassing senior prom, Kevin had never been on a real date. Never kissed a girl. Never worried about getting her home before curfew. Never fretted over jewelry or fancy clothes or anything like that.

He didn’t mind this at all, but pressure from his mother had Kevin seriously considering trying to “get out there” and “find a girl.”

However, he was ill prepared for any instance of romance. He had plenty of flowers to make bouquets with, sure. But that did not matter if he presented in in his dirtied up farmer’s duds.

So the obvious next step was to get a suit, right? Something simple he could whip out in case some pretty lady actually gave his stuttering, blushing self the time of day.

[Smiles, pushing her sunglasses up and into her hair] Thank you, Candace! And might I say, you’re looking very, very cute yourself in that outfit. Especially that hat and those sandals.
