I'll know when I see it. If they're really as good as you say they are, I'll pay you double for them.

[ he'll have to call his parents to make sure, but he's sure that they'll agree.

well, it's more like they don't give a shit, but. you know. ]

[liberal_arts]

The pleasure was all mine, my new friend. And give my well wishes to your mother!

[liberal_arts]

You can't afford that.

Let's focus on the design, for now.

[adoringpast]

What do you mean? You're willing to do this for free? Don't give me that crap.

Designs should be easy enough - it's summer, so just slap some summery beach things with warm colors on them.

[liberal_arts]

If the designs were going to be easy, you wouldn't have come to me, would you?

Let's be clear, I make my money on art trading. My personal commission fees reflect my work, and extend well beyond the reach of most of those of normal means. I'm not charging you because I'm enjoying this challenge, and the fact that it would be nearly immoral to do so, given how much it would cost you, a student.

But I don't work for free, either. So consider this you owing me a favor.

[adoringpast]

[ and sena hates owing anyone favors. but it's not like he has any choice in the matter, so ]

Fine, I'll do what you want. Just tell me when you want me to repay you or whatever.

About the designs, though... What do you have in mind?

[liberal_arts]

In 2014, there was a pushed attempt by European fashion houses to make fannypacks chic. It worked, for a short while, and most of it was inspired by French and Italian urban fashions.

So something along those lines might work.

[adoringpast]

Huh, this is the first time I've heard about this. But maybe because the idea flopped before it could reach the modeling agencies to show these off.

But I guess that could work. You can just tell them to bring it back for only a short while, right?

[liberal_arts]

Perhaps you didn't hear about it because you were too young to be bothered. Which may be for the best.

Either way, I'll pencil up some designs.

[adoringpast]

It's only been like 4 years? Then again I hadn't started modeling at the time, so maybe that's why I haven't heard of it.

But... Thank you, Kasen-san. I'll be forever in your debt... or at least after this bingo challenge.

[liberal_arts]

Oh I won't keep you waiting forever.

You'll have the designs soon.

Hey. Looks like you're one of the 'offline' people, huh? so you probably can't text me back. But if you somehow see this and can respond, please let me know you're ok.

enough water to refill the ocean all over again.

[liberal_arts]

-It takes nearly half a day before he actually responds.-

It certainly does disagree.

[liberal_arts]

I beg your pardon?

[totallynotanoni]

[...Ok really? Again?]

Sorry.
I'm assuming that my text split off into your phone somehow, right?
That seems to be a retrospect thing thats going on at the moment.

[flowrite]

[It doesn't take quite that long for the next reply, but there's certainly a good amount of staring at the screen and trying not to be sick before it appears.]

oh my god I'm so sorry Kasen, that was

I don't suppose you could pretend like t his never happened could you

[liberal_arts]

It's fine, really. I'm more surprised my number is still in your phone.

[liberal_arts]

So it would seem, but that doesn't exactly turn away my curiosity about what you just wrote.

[totallynotanoni]

[ Ok, she has to bend the truth a little bit here: she totally doesn't want to admit this was yesterday. ]
I was talking about a hangover I had where afterwards I drank so much water that I could replace the ocean with it last month.

[ She's figured that these are all Retrospect users receiving these texts. ]

[liberal_arts]

What, just recently? I suppose after all that happened, one could be driven to drink in excess.

[totallynotanoni]

A little farther back.
[ #TotallyNotAnAlcoholic ]
A few months ago.

[liberal_arts]

What inspired you to drink that much then?
