Suki was very excited. The previous day had been an 'event day' at the maid cafe, where the waitresses would play quiz games with their patrons. While Suki didn't really understand the appeal, it had been a pretty big hit and she made quite a lot in tips. While most of that money went straight into the family's 'continue living under a roof' fund, it still left her with a lot more spending money than she was used to. To celebrate, she decided she was going to buy a whole bunch of supplies and go craft-crazy. She had no idea what she wanted to make and was going to let the supplies decide. She was planning to go to some familiar craft supply stores and textile shops that happened to be on the way home. She came to a stop, however, in front of a store as it caught her eye. Iori Hobby Shop. She tilted her head and peered at the door. She had never gotten into model building, though she could definitely see the appeal. It was just another way to create something new. Suki stood there deliberating for a second before curiosity won out. She could just take a quick look around. The other stores weren't going anywhere. Besides, there could be crafting supplies in here as well. She stepped to the door and entered the shop. Her jaw dropped as she looked around the store. There were so many models. There were trains! And planes! And automobiles! And some weird robot things...? But whatever about those, because there was a model house with tiny furniture in its tiny living room and it was so adorable! Suki had made a mistake. All she had wanted was crafting supplies. She couldn't afford another hobby. But she couldn't help from stepping further into the model-filled room, her head whipping around to take in as much as she could, looking from a bystander's point like she was lost and confused. She had to escape somehow, before all her money disappeared. |

Tomoyo stepped into the store just seconds after Suki had. If Suki looked lost and confused, Tomoyo just looked, well, weird. The hyperactive kick-boxing girl was wearing an oversized, bright yellow sweater with a sad cartoon face on it. The sweater long enough to cover any evidence that she was wearing a shirt and pleated skirt and black cycling shorts under it. People who knew the character on the shirt would probably cringe as well since it was Yellow Guy from the creepy Youtube series Don't Hug Me I'm Scared. This wasn't the only thing that stood out about her, though. Tomoyo was also donning a pair of bright red galoshes and her signature cartoon rabbit mask. Strapped on her back was a felt backpack of what looked like an angry blue clock. Tomoyo looked around the shop and smiled. She had come here for materials since she was working on a few things for her online shop. "Now, where is the glitter around--" Tomoyo had been walking backwards in preoccupation with the items in the store and failed to realize she had bumped Suki from behind. She yelped and turned around. "O-oh! Sorry about that!" |

Ha ha! Time for Gunpla! …at least that was the second most common reason for Seiji Fujiwara to visit the Iori Hobby shop. The top of course was just to visit Gally, either way that wasn't why he came that particular day. No, this time he had a mission, and a shopping list. Molds, and candy thermometers and some other things mostly. Though that didn't mean that he didn't stop by to see Gally before he was off hunting most of this stuff. White Day was approaching, and he had to figure out how to make some chocolate that wasn't terrible in like, couple of weeks! No big deal, he had Rin to help, after all. Hanako on the other hand just came to visit Gally and for the sake of an outing. Seiji was perfectly fine on his own devices, so she was free to browse and wander for the moment. As it happened, she was in a fine position to witness the more quirky-looking of the two girls bump into the other one. "Oh! Careful! Are you alright?" Pretty standard concerned bystander line, but not much more to say than that, was there? |

It was a rather mundane day for the chocolate-skinned woman known as Gally to her friends. She served customers and straightened and arranged the shelves for more customers to come in. Lately she's been particularly busy due to a spike in gunpla sales. Some of the things she had to special order from the company for people, but that was no big deal either. While she was typing up an order, she noticed two young girls come into the store. She only watched them outta the corner of her eye, but even she could tell that impact was imminent. Normally, she'd have stopped them.. buuut this time she had pressing matters to attend to before she could greet her new customers. Quickly going over the forms once more for any errors, Gally hit send and waited for the email to go through. While she was waiting, two more people entered the store; these two Gally knew! One being her crush, Seiji and another being her friend Hanako! She was quite overjoyed to see them here, but business first~! Slipping from around the counter, Gally walked up and gave a slight bow. "Welcome to Iori Hobby Shop! Anything I can help you with today, friends?" She says cheerfully with a smile. She winked at Hanako and Seiji before directing her attention at the two new girls. |

Suki didn't even like cars, but these scale model '55 Chevy Belairs looked like they'd be really fun to build! The box said that paint wasn't included, which meant that she could paint it whatever color she wanted! She imagined she could even take pieces from multiple kits and combine the to make a completely unique car! And really, was 1200 yen even all that expensive-- Suki let out a short yelp as somebody bumped into her from behind, pulling her from her trance. She spun around to find a girl dressed in a strange sweater that was way too big for her. Behind her, two other people approached, staring at them. All of them seemed about her age. Suki quickly bowed. 'I'm sorry! I was distracted, I should have been--' She jumped again as someone behind her greeted her. She turned to find someone who was very dark-skinned. Nagashima had always had a pretty large foreign population compared to the rest of Japan, but that wasn't saying much. As such, Suki ended up staring at the woman for a second before catching herself and averting her eyes to a small section of the floor. 'Sorry. I was looking for a craft supply store. But this is a hobby shop, so maybe I should go...' She turned to leave then. It wasn't as bad since Haru wasn't there, but she still wasn't very comfortable around other teenagers. |

Tomoyo quickly offered a smile and waved her hand dismissively. "No, no! It was my fault!" she said. "Sorry about that!" She then looked at Hanako and scratched her head sheepishly. The goofy smile she gave hinted that this happened often. "Yeah, I'm fine. I guess I shouldn't have been walking backwards. I just caught up with all the pretty stuff here, miss." It was then that she noticed Gally, who was asking if they needed anything. Tomoyo had seen very few people with dark skin, but when she did, she was always fascinated. Not in a racist kind of way, but she half-envied how lovely their skin was. For a moment, she thought that if the girl had white hair and hare ears, she'd look a lot like a viera from the final fantasy series. Instead of just gawking, though, she beamed. "Oh, why thank you! Actually, I"m just looking around for sparkly or glittery things for a friend. She's a fan of knickknacks." Tomoyo then noticed the girl she bumped into leaving. "O-oh, going already? If you're looking for a craft supply store, I can help you with that! I know a few! Eheh, if you're willing to stick around for awhile, I can point you to the right direction once I'm done here." |

People bumping into other people happened all the time. She wasn't really surprised by it anymore. The girl herself seemed pretty awkward. Honestly, she was kind of one of those cute little things you just wanted to snap up, then and there! "I'll help you look too. I might know of a good shop. I'm Hanako Ito, by the way, and this is Seiji!" Of course, Gally's greeting wasn't lost, and she gave the older woman a big, warm smile. Upon his prompt, Seiji's hand shot up from over the aisle somewhere and waved in the girl's general direction. He was on his way to the counter as it looked like he had everything. "Alright, Gally-san! This should be it. And thanks for the chocolate!" Note to self: Make Gally something nice for White day. As for the exchange with the girls he didn't know yet? Best if Seiji steered clear of that, wasn't it? Edited by Nonsequitur, Feb 7 2016, 02:47 AM.

"Well you're in the right place! We do hobby AND crafts~!" Gally says with a grin. No need to lose customers to the competition! "What are you looking for? I'll be able to help you find it!" Gally was a smooth talker as she rattled off a list of things their store carried... Well, not ALL of it, but you get the idea! She smiled and blushed at Seiji, scratching the back of her head while giggling in embarrassment. "D'aww, it was nothing!" She replied. Nothing? I don't think so. You poured your heart into that and he was none the wiser. What were you expecting from it? For him to father your young?! Hahahaha! That'd be the day! Gally froze for a moment, wide-eyed. What the heck was that?! She mentally thought, frowning. Crazy Diamond.. that wasn't you.. was it? .... Shaking her head, Gally returned to her cheery smile as she turned to face the girls. "Please, have a look around the store while I take care of my customers!" She says as she moves behind the counter to ring up Seiji. "Will that be everything, Seiji-kun?" |

Apparently, they sold craft supplies as well. Suki wasn't sure how she felt about this. On the one hand, here was a new place to search for crafts. On the other, she had just been hypnotized by a toy car. She decided to take the risk. If she got caught up with another model, she would just focus on all the zeros at the end of their price tags. She nodded a thank you at the dark-skinned employee and turned her attention to the two girls with her. They seemed nice enough. It even sounded like they like to craft! At the very least, having them to talk to would distract Suki from all of the models. She bowed slightly to them. 'I'm Tsukiko. Amachi Tsukiko.' She straightened and tilted her head a fraction. 'Do you two like crafting as well?' |

Tomoyo reflexively made a salute to Suki. "A pleasure to meet you, Amachi-san!" she said grinning brightly. "The name's Tomoyo Sonozaki. I'm a senior at Taiyoutono High School. And yes, I like crafts. I make a bunch of knicknacks at home. Nothing serious, though, since I focus more on knitting stuff up." Noticing again the girl who had been concerned when she and Suki had bumped one another as well as her other friend, she said: "Oh, um, hello, then, Ito-san! It's nice to meet you! Oh, and are you theSeiji Fujiwara[/i] from Taiyoutono? I heard you won the presidential election votey....thing-thing. Congratulations on that and it's nice to meet you, as well!" Her voice never seemed to lose it's enthusiasm. She also smiled when Gally mentioned tending to her customers. "Um, do you happen to have any scrapbook materials?" she asked. "Preferably things with glitter? I have a friend I'm buying it for." |
