Um, thank you to everyone that made me so much money on Gamboller's Berth. It really helped me out.

[Whether you won it for her in the tournament, or she won it from you gambling. No hard feelings, k?]

I think I have enough money to start making clothes for everyone now. So, if anyone wants anything made, I can make it!

I just need a name... and a logo... and something to promote it... and... [Oh god, she's really not prepared at all!]

Comments

[song_princess]

I am glad to hear that, Keimi!

You.... Haven't thought of either a name or logo?

1/2

[seakingbait]

Hm? No, I haven't really thought that far yet.

[seakingbait]

Gyah!! I'm never going to be a great designer at this rate!!

[song_princess]

What does the name have to do with the clothes? The clothes are more important than the name so do belittle yourself like that, Keimi!

[seakingbait]

But I need a catchy name that everyone will recognize or I'll never be great!

[song_princess]

[She will forever not understand the need for a name of your clothes.]

I am sure the perfect name is out there for your clothes. If only my word or approval works in this world ten I would gladly give it to you to show that you are a great designer. People will see your passion and your love in everything so don't worry so much about it now.

[seakingbait]

Lea-chin...

[She wants to hug you right now.]

You're right. I'll come up with a great name, and then everyone will want to wear my clothes!

[Voice]

[alwaysgrumpy]

You really need to figure that stuff out ahead of time, Keimi.

[seakingbait]

I know... I'll never be a great designer if I can't even come up with a name!

[alwaysgrumpy]

Do you at least have a few suggestions ready?

[seakingbait]

...I'm always open to them?

[alwaysgrumpy]

Maybe a logo of a happy fish? Hm...I guess that doesn't really capture it.

[seakingbait]

Mn. That won't do at all.

[Am I just a fish to you?]

[mikangirl]

I could do with some clothes!

[Turning up without luggage is a pain in the ass. She's picked up a few things already but she can always do with more, okay. /shopaholic]

[seakingbait]

I'm not sure I can keep up with Nami-chin's demand.

[Girl she saw you clean out Pappug's shop.]

[mikangirl]

[He offered it free! What else was she supposed to do?]

My demand's not so great! It's only you making things, right? I'm sure I can wait.

[She'll just have a... long list...]

[seakingbait]

Well... maybe if we started small.

[mikangirl]

How small are we talking?

[But before that:] What kind of materials do you have?

[seakingbait]

Let's start with filling your closet before anything. [Last thing she needs to do is fill the holds with clothes that aren't for sale.]

Mm... I've got lots of stuff. Cloth, silk, some leather. I'm starting to collect some rarer stuff too, but it takes a lot longer to find.

[Then, her smile turns into a bit of a smirk.] I've also got my secret weapon.

[judgementscythe]

A name and a logo? You still don't have those picked out?

[she pauses for a second]

You know the first thing you need to do is decide who you want to sell to. Are your clothes going to be for everyone or more expensive things?

[seakingbait]

I-I know! I'm terrible! I'll never be successful at this rate!

[judgementscythe]

You'll be fine! Just answer that second question for yourself. Who are your clothes for? Then figure what is important to you. You can come up with a name based on that.

[seakingbait]

[Sniffle.]

Well... I wanted to make clothes that everyone can wear, but I'd like to make some fancy stuff, too.

[judgementscythe]

[Lorelai takes on an encouraging tone] That's good. So let's think on your main focus. Everyone. You need a name that you find appealing that you think can catch on. Let's start easy, tell me about a few things you love We'll throw some things at the wall from that and see if any stick.

[seakingbait]

Love?

[She taps a finger to her chin.]

I love my home and my friends. Swimming in Mermaid Cove. [She hugs her clamshell backpack to her chest. So many things that remind her of home.]
