Mou, Haru-chan, tell me it isn't fruit or animals again...
Nope! This time Haru is going to attempt on something completely different. /pause for dramatic effect/ Aliens!
her a long, unreadable look. He clears his throat. "The green kind?"
Haru
wonders 12 years ago
what Daemon means by that. She always thought aliens came in all sorts of funky colours.
blinks and then nods. Well, at least she won't be in some green zentai with antennaes... "What've you got in mind?"
shows him some of her sketches. "Purple with long googly eyes!"
stares. He's trying not to laugh. "Googly eyes?"
nods enthusiastically. "Haru was thinking about making it chubby too, but walking around would be a little too difficult..."
wryly, "I think skinny would be perfectly fine. Perhaps some green spots."
Won't that make him look ill?
Not if they're done right. Just some...interest. /why is he enjoying this./
hands him a green colour pencil. "Please show Haru how~"
blanches but nods. Okay, he can do this and maintain some dignity. Carefully he puts a few spots like freckles around joints and face.
watches on intently as he starts adding features onto the drawing. There's nothing like learning from someone who enjoys cosplays too~
only takes a few seconds after adding a little bit of tint like a turtleshell along the back and hands her the pencil back, looking curious.
takes the colour pencil with one hand as she thinks about what the drawing has become. "...Is it a skinny tortoise alien?"
blinks and looks at it thoughtfully. "I just figured some skintone variation for visual interest..."
takes in his comments and nods. "Oh, oh, maybe Daemon-san would like to help Haru with making the costume?"
purses his lips. That's...not quite his thing. But he needs something to occupy his mind (and hands). He's restless.
Alright. Do you have the materials?
rummages through her boxes in the closet and pulls out some bags of cloth and stuffing in them. "Um, this should be enough...probably."
seems thoughtful before he shrugs and nods. "You're the expert."
giggles at the compliment. "Okay, let's pick out the right colours first~ If there's not enough, Haru will get more next time."
What material are you planning? Form-fitting or knit?
about it for a moment. "Knitting would be nicer to wear in, but the size means that it's going to take quite a long time though..."
purses his lips. "Lycra and polyester are harder to sew and more uncomfortable. Knits it is."
agrees with a firm nod. "Alright. So let's get started then~" /pulls out several cloths already knit but in different colours/
looks at them thoughtfully and glances at her face to see what she's looking at most carefully. He sort of can't believe he's here.
picks out a light purple and matches it with lime green. She looks at Daemon, as if seeking approval. "How about these two?"
nods. "The purple looks good. Why not just use a little paint for the green? Save the sewing, tint it."
his suggestion some thought. It would be easier to paint it across, but she was afraid that the fabric would be too absorbent...
hums thoughtfully. Primer?
never tried that before on her cosplays. "Is it better?"
