Hello... you've reached Chihiro Fujisaki. I apologize for missing you, but, um... please leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Hm...let's look over this way.

[Chihiro says, taking Komasan by the arm and leading him to some more modest selections. Ones that...you know. Aren't bikinis.]

[monge]

[Komasan follows obediently, Noko close behind. Unlike her trainer, she's a little bummed they couldn't look at more bikinis. Let's be real, she'd totally rock one.]

Hmn...

[He's still not sure when he sees the new selection, but that's okay! He has a Chihiro to help him out.]

Well...what sorta swimsuit would you pick, zura?

[That seemed like the safest route to go, Chihiro has experience with this sort of thing. Maybe they can even match. That's not too weird, is it...?]

[codeforhope]

Me? Well...the last time I went swimming, I had something like that.

[Chihiro points to a wall that holds wet suits of all different lengths, shapes, and sizes. Chihiro always felt most comfortable wearing something that kind of went straight down the middle in terms of style.]

[monge]

[The wet suits were not something he expected.

Not in the sense that he's surprised that's what Chihiro would pick, but that they exist at all. It wasn't a type of suit that came up often -- if at all -- in the pictures of beaches he saw so very long ago.]

Monge...

I-It's like a whole outfit, zura!

[codeforhope]

Mhm. It's like...it's all-purpose, I guess. You don't have to worry about multiple parts, or getting sun burnt because something wasn't covered properly...it's all one piece.

[And, it keeps you warm in cold water! So that's a plus.]
