Double Header [Open Like Whoa]

It was a mutual decision that Rein and Ed would be passing customers back and forth between each other. Everyone liked clothing and people liked trinkets being made right? As thus being said, they had put up banners and a nice post with "Atelier Elric" <--- and "Stormwind Clothiers" ---> scribbled on it in fancy Crannagan script. Perfectly legible by anyone who knew at least English.

It was here both were getting ready for receiving customers and it was hoping that they would come and use their businesses wisely.

(ooc: easy enough. Put either Ed or Rein in the subject line so I know who you want, and they'll get something created for you, either it be trinkets/small items/etc or clothing. Both have cookies so drop on by. Repeat customers are certainly welcome.

PS: I am feeling much better this morning.)

"Hey!" Hoshi said, waving her hand to Rein. She was getting used to magic being around the ship, even though it was still a little odd in nature to her.

"I was wondering if you wouldn't mind making a few clothes for me. Um... I have some yen to pay for them," she replied, smiling.

Rein giggled at the payment. "Don't worry about payment. I've got so much cloth, I don't know what to do with it all!"

"I'm Reinforce Zwei, but you can call me Rein," added Rein. "So! Anything you like made up preferably?"

"Ah, all right. Um, I can do stuff to help out, then?" Doing work without having some way to pay for it didn't seem right to her.

"I'm Hikari Hoshi and it's very nice to meet you!" Hoshi also added on. She then dug around for her wallet and took out a picture of her with her team. She was wearing a red and yellow striped shirt with a red vest. On the back, it had her team's symbol, Holy Enoch. She had on a pair of fingerless gloves, black slacks and a pair of tennis shoes.

"Think you could make something like this? The headband's optional, if you don't wanna make it, Rein."

"Sure, I could use help moving stock once in a while, bringing older material to the front of the store," said Rein. "And delivering new clothing to customers too. That helps. Or you could also model for me~"

"I can certainly can!" exclaimed Rein, looking at the picture and setting her screens to scan the image. "I'll need to measure you out first."

The thought of her of all people being a model was a little out there. "I can handle moving stock for you, Rein, as well as delivering new clothing as soon as I familiarize myself with the ship."

Then, at the next statement, she nodded. "All right, go ahead!"

"Sounds perfect," said Rein as she pulled out her measuring tape. "Arms up please~!"

She moved forward, intent on wrapping the tape around Hoshi's torso. "Are you adjusting okay?" she inquired as she began making mental notes.

Hoshi extended her arms, having no difficulty with her left, but just a bit with her right. She pushed whatever discomfort she was feeling to the back of her mind for now.

"Yeah, I am. I've made a couple of friends already," she responded with a smile. "I'm worried about the people from my world, but hopefully they're okay."

"There's always hope someone will wake up," said Rein as she worked at getting all of Hoshi's measurements properly. "Even if they don't, we need to keep fighting together, right?"

She did notice the uncomfortable motion of her arm, and decided not to mention it yet. Could be difficult when they were moving larger rolls of cloth.

"Right. Hopefully, they'll wake up soon," she said, looking a bit nostalgic at all the memories she shared with her team.

She worked through the pain she was feeling, rather focusing on more important things right now.

Finishing off with Hoshi's arm and nudging it down, she went to her hips. "In any case, I really hope you find more friends on the ship. This place is full of good people who can do good things for each one of us."

With a small sigh of relief, Hoshi returned her arm down to her side. "I can only hope I'll be able to repay everyone who will help me out by helping other people out like I'm being helped right now."

"Best to take it one step at a time," said Rein with a nod. "Okay finished. Have a seat and help yourself to something in the cooler there." She indicated a fridge in the corner. "I'll start with your outfit and make sure..."

Rein paused. "Just a moment actually. Do you wear panties or something else? I need to know cause I also make undies."

Hoshi nodded, smiling while she took a seat down into one of the chairs. "What do you have in the cooler, Rein?" she asked while going over to get something to drink.

Then, at the question, she balked a bit. "Uh... well, yeah. I sometimes bind my chest, but uh..."

Congratulations. You derailed her train of thought.

Rein blinked. "Bind? Hoshi that's not good for a developing chest! You could seriously mess up your breasts! Please tell me you're not using bandages!"

The expression on Rein's face was aghast. Why would anyone bind boobs? It was an affront to nature!

Rein's fingers twitched once as she really wanted to check Hoshi now, be damn her sensibilities.

"Then I won't tell you," said Hoshi nervously. "Besides, they tend to get in the way of everything."

She stood there, stupidly blinking a bit. Wasn't binding something that wasn't too new?

"Mouuuuuuu~!" Rein rubbed her forehead. "At least let me make you a few sports bras. Crushing your breasts like that can cause medical problems later! They offer better support overall."

It was why Shamal refused to let anyone on the active team back home bind, and instead wear fitted sports bras so that they didn't wiggle around. With the triumvate of Fate-Nanoha-Signum out there, it was practically a requirement.

"U-Um... Sure. Sport bras. Let's go with that," Hoshi said, laughing to help clear the air. She moved her left arm to rub the back of her head in nervousness as well.

Now she was suddenly self-conscious of her chest.

Rein sighed as she ducked under the counter to get a few items. "At least you haven't bound yourself right now. Now I can get an accurate measurement."

"It's something I learned when I was working with Shamal," said Rein as she emerged holding a basket of bras and checking the cup sizes. "When a girl is developing, they need to wear a proper fitting bra. If they're incredibly active, binding is an option but ONLY for the duration of the activity. As the breast develops, sensitivity is increased and the use of a well fitting sports bra is needed."

Rein pouted a little as she sighed and went for the materials to make underwear as she had nothing proper to fit Hoshi. "From a medical standpoint, it's making sure your body is healthy even though you're exercising or you risk damaging the nerve bundles in your chest. Follow me so far?"

"I actually am incredibly active. I run my own beyblading team--that's a sport--as well as train as hard as I can so that I physically have the endurance necessary to get through the match," said Hoshi after she listened to what Rein was telling her. For the couple of years she decided to willingly bind her breasts, she was causing herself that much damage?

"But, yes, I'm following you so far," she said after a moment of thinking on things.

Rein nodded as she adjusted the feed and magic flared as the machines roared to life. "Endurance is one thing, but too much of a good thing can be bad."

Her mind flickered back to THAT INCIDENT and she sighed. "If you promise not to bind yourself twenty-four seven, I'll get you a specialized bra to do that for you. BUT promise me you won't damage your breasts like that for me?"

Rein put up the big eyes of sparkly doom. Hopefully this'll work.

And Hoshi knew of that quite well of pushing yourself to your absolute limits to get through anything. She rubbed a bit at her arm in remembrance before nodding.

While she was naturally immune to the big sparkly eyes of doom (Sei did that enough!), she decided to humor Rein.

"All right, all right. I promise."

"Yay~!" exclaimed Rein as one of her machines dinged. "And your undies are ready."

Pulling them out, she held out a bra and panties, made of some off-white cotton-like material. "Try this on. There's a changing room. I should have the first of your outfit made soon here."

Okay. Instant underwear. That was something... new, especially to her.

Hoshi went to take the undergarments and smiled. "All right! I'll go do that right now." Because, truth be told, she was happy to get out of that plant suit.

She went into the changing room to go try them on.

Rein nodded as she checked on a scanner that she had put up in place of the screen in front of her as the machines worked. Hoshi had quite a bit of magical power, C class at least though it was all centralized. It wasn't quite as powerful as say, Tsukasa's when he was Decade, but it had indications of reaching higher levels of damage.

"You know Hoshi, I could make a barrier jacket for you. I've been commissioned once in a while to develop one for people here on the ship, and I could use someone to test out a new design that I've got worked out right now. If you're interested."

While Hoshi was putting the bra on to see just how it fit, she blinked at what Rein said. A...barrier jacket? If it could help in strengthening her even more, then she decided it wouldn't be as bad.

"I'd be delighted to test it out, Rein," she said, and then added on-- "These fit perfectly!"

Fine by me!
