[ allumette's still on the moon base, looking a bit different to those who might know her regular dress. then again, if she's sewn something for you, you might know her like this very well. kneeling before her spinning wheel, she gives a little wave and smile to the camera. ]

Fellow transports, hello.

I've heard many a request for winter items as we return to Earth--as I am skilled in weaving and many other types of clothes-making, I offer my services to whomever should need it. We have many materials here. However, if we are short, I will have to ask that you find it.

I can be found on the moon base.

[ surly; ]

To be frank, a desert girl like myself could not survive well in winter. I would freeze to death even with warm clothes.

[aheroipray]

Oh.

[ well! that's also okay. ]

What kind of dress would she like, then?

[chosenfake]

[Satisfied that Allu isn't going to ask for his measurements, he lets out a breath.]

Uh... I don't know. I kind of want to keep it as a surprise. But... [He thinks about what she's worn before.] I think she'd like something that she can move around in, so probably not too tight. She usually wears off-the-shoulder things in darker colors like black, brown, and wine-red.

The other thing I wanted is a lot easier. Asch doesn't have a coat because he left before we went to the moon, and I wasn't able to pack his old one. As long as it's warm and in a dark color, I think he won't mind.

[aheroipray]

Is it possible that I can see her, at least once? As it should be a surprise, I may be able to measure by sight rather than ask myself. [ a little laugh. ] I could always lie, of course, but I prefer not to. We have wine-red cloth, thankfully, though it is with a small pattern.

I see. Many of your friends seem to prefer dark colors. [ she wonders idly why, and is reminded of badra. she exhales softly. ]

I can make both of these things with the materials we have here.

[chosenfake]

Oh. Yeah, of course! Her name's Tear Grants. She works in the clinic, I think... She's got long light brown hair all the way past her waist and blue eyes. She's really... uh, she stands out.

[A pause, and a little awkward smile.] Well, both Asch and Tear were in the military.

Um, what do you want for payment? I admit I'm not the best cook, but I can probably get my hands on supplies if there's something specific you're looking for.

[aheroipray]

Duly noted, Luke.

If you can't cook, I could certainly use ingredients to cook on my own. Weaving thread and then weaving cloth from thread gets to be quite tiresome after a while.

Surprisingly, all I cannot find are popotoes. --er, potatoes, I suppose. [ 8T ]

[chosenfake]

Hahah. My cooking's edible... most of the time. But I'm no grand chef or anything. Tear's a lot better.

[He brightens.]

Potatoes? That I can do. I'll get you a whole bunch, okay?
