Dear Everyone,

How are you all fairing now that the weather seems to be changing a bit here. It feels a little cooler in my opinion, cool enough to need a couple extra layers. I'm already wearing a haori now when I leave my home. I noticed that it started snowing too. It might be fun to really get into the winter spirit, don't you think? I'm sure you have a favorite thing about when the weather gets colder like this, whether it's food, or games.

Speaking of the chill in the air though, I've been hearing around town that some sort of holiday is taking place soon, one where you show your gratefulness for those you care about. I'm more used to celebrating the beginning of a new year, but this holiday really tugged at my curiosity.

I was wondering, would anyone here be up to helping someone who wanted to make something with their hands?

Of course the offer isn't just a one way street. I would offer my services in return. I'm trained in the art of swordsmanship, but I'm also good at doing chores if you need anything like that done.

I hope you're all fairing well this time of year. Thank you for taking the time to listen.

Sincerely,
Yamatonokami Yasusada

I've got some free time. What do you need made?

[hairpinings]

I want to be able to make a hairclip. I'm good with my hands when it comes to labor and fighting, but when it comes to small delicate things I'm not all that good.

[abyssbound]

Are you looking for someone to make it for you, or someone to teach you how to make it yourself?

[hairpinings]

I'm looking for someone who might be willing to help teach me. I think the gift will mean more if it was made by my hands. But I know if I do it now without knowing what I'm doing it'll end up looking like a disaster haha

[abyssbound]

I could show you the basics at least. Even if it ends up looking like a disaster anyway, those flaws will make it unique.

[hairpinings]

You really don't mind showing me? Really Really?

[abyssbound]

Like I said, I have some free time.

What materials do you want to use?

[hairpinings]

Thank you so much! I promise I'll make it up to you!

Mmm.... I wanted it to sort of match this one I have. But... if it was flashier I'm sure he'd like it... I wonder if you could make one out of the crystal pieces I've been seeing around?

[abyssbound]

[ Considering Asura doesn't have any clue what the one Yasusada has looks like, he'll have to take his word for it. ]

Where can we meet? I can't answer that without knowing what I'm working with.

[hairpinings]

Oh right! I forgot that even if this magic is amazing with its instant letters, you can't actually see anything like with one of Mutsunokami's instant photographs.

I can meet you anywhere. Do you have some place you feel most comfortable meeting?

[abyssbound]

If you're free this afternoon, meet me in the Square.

[If and when Yasusada decides to come by, he will find the huge man standing beside the fountain with his eyes closed and his arms crossed as if in meditation (but really he's just dozed off a bit).]

[hairpinings]

[ He did in fact come out to find him, only to find this giant man (to be honest most people are giant to Yasusada anyway. He's only 5'4") near the big fountain. Curious... He tilted his head and started walking around the fountain, trying to guage just how big this man was. He might be as big as an ootachi..! ]

Is he sleeping...?
