[Maribelle opens the door, and is instantly surprised by the gift.]

Oh, my! You didn't have to bring anything, darling.

[guideyouhome]

I know, but I thought it'd be nice! You've been such a big help to me that I wanted to thank you!

[There's not much else she can offer right now anyway. She follows Maribelle in and sets the flowers on a table.]

So! Are you ready to sew?

[troubadamsel]

As ready as you are, it seems. Take a seat, we'll start with something simple today.

[She leads Kairi to the next room, where cloth, needles, thread, etc are arranged.]

Today, you are going to make your own apron!

[guideyouhome]

[Kairi smiles as she takes a seat, making sure her dress is smoothed out. She looks over the supplies with curious eyes.]

Ooo... is it really that simple?

[troubadamsel]

If you can pull out a plant and not damage the roots, you can make an apron!

[... THOSE THINGS ARE NOTHING ALIKE-]

But I will warn you, you might get a tiny bit hurt.

[guideyouhome]

That's okay! I don't mind!

[She was about to start training to be a keybearer anyway. How bad could a little needle be?]

[troubadamsel]

An excellent attitude to have. Over time, you'll build up callouses on your fingers, and it'll hurt less and less.

[guideyouhome]

[Kairi looks at her hands for a moment. They're pretty soft all things considered. She kinda likes the ideas of calluses to show how hard she's been working.]

Okay! Where do we start?

[troubadamsel]

Well, I've already cut the pieces, so first, we'll attach the curved edges. Pick up a needle and thread, and we'll start from there.
