[If there's one thing that's become painfully obvious about Rengoku it's that, uh. This man has no other pairs of clothes. Like, sure, he's picked some stuff up from Heimr, but it doesn't really feel like him. And while he does wash his uniform frequently, there's...

Look. He can't keep doing this Daniel.

Thus, he heads to the tailor, pleasant little smile on his lips. He taps his knuckles on the door once, before strutting right inside.]

Good afternoon! I was hoping to make a request of you!

[Just uh. Full volume, btw.]

[Dachie immediately starts howl-barking like WHO IS THIS MAN BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK BA— before Ain comes out from around the corner and grabs Dachie under the stomach and hauls him back.]

Haha, sorry, Dachie's not as scary as he sounds~. What is it that you needed?

[Well see, the problem is that in the few seconds it takes Ain to actually grab a hold of Dachie, Kyojuro drops to his knees and leans toward Dachie. He proceeds to BARK BARK BARK BARK right back, likely insulting Ain, Dachie's mother, and the nice black furred, blue-eyed dog he's seen around the grove.

It's actually a little disappointing when the dog-thing is pulled away. Oh well. Kyojuro remains on his knees, beaming up at Ain from his current vantage point.]

He is not scary at all! [Maybe Kyojuro would be a little nervous if Dachie resembled an actual dog (or worse, a wolf), but those more avian features spare him from any more targeted nervousness.] You are only trying to protect your home, yes? Who could blame you!

[He screams like a barn owl yet his tailfeathers are wagging... this is the creature ever.]

Haha, he sure is trying... but now that he's realised that you're not mean, I'm sure he just wants to play. I'm sure you didn't come here to play with him, though, not that I mind if you do.

[Please babysit his fucking creature thanks.]

[Well, since he's here and has permission, Kyojuro is going to flop straight onto his side, sprawling across the ground as he ruffles the top of Dachie's head. This is how you play with animals, right?

... Can you tell he wasn't allowed to have pets growing up?]

Ah, right! I was hoping to see if I could have an outfit made by you. I admit I do not have the keenest sense of fashion. All I really know is that I am wasting time and water by scrubbing my uniform every night!

[Ain is making mental notes to just drop his animals off at Kyojuro's and say "have fun" to him, like damn.]

Wow... yes, I can fix that for you. Your current outfit looks similar to what one of my friends wears. If you don't have a sense of fashion, do you mind if I just spin something up for you in a similar style to hers? It seems to match your vibe~.

If that is what you recommend, yes!

[He gives a few enthusiastic nods.]

Perhaps I ought to expand my attire outward in the long run, but that will suit me just fine for now, I think!

Haha, well, we can work on that later.

[For now, he's going to pull out his sketchbook and start doing a very rough draft of the outfit. If Kyojuro is willing to wait and babysit Dachie while this goes on, he will eventually be provided with the sketchier version of this.]

How about this? I think this would look handsome on you!

[It's definitely more Chinese-inspired than anything because Ain's friend is, well, fantasy-Chinese. But still!]

[Another excuse to play with a creature that has the same amount of energy as him? Count him in. He's so much more palatable than actual dogs too, so that that also helps. Unfortunately he may be more of a distraction, considering th way he is rolling across the ground to wrestle Dachie but. Don't worry about it.

He does eventually pop over to take a peek and... Cue the enthusiastic nodding!]

It is perfect! It does not seem likely to inhibit movement, or anything like that! How wonderful!

Haha, yay! If you don't mind, I need to take measurements. I can generally eyeball it, but I want to make sure I'm not totally off.

[He will set his little sketchbook aside and stand up, grabbing a tape measure from a desk drawer that really doesn't want to unstick from its position after it's pulled open. RIP, he'll fight it later.]

You don't have to undress. [He feels like Kyojuro will if he doesn't say anything. Dachie will sit politely while this happens, though.]

Oh! Yes, of course!

[Kyojuro is indeed reaching for the buttons of his uniform when Ain corrects him. Said hands lower with a sheepish laugh. And though it won't help the effort, he will lean over just slightly so that he can continue petting Dachie's head. Good dogbird.]

Do you need help with that drawer? I should be able to give it a solid thump!

[Look at his muscles Ain. Just not in a gay way.]
