Kanade!
This shop carries lots of different types of outerwear!

Wow, you're right...
I don't even know where to begin...

They seem to be sorted based on category.
This looks like the corner for basic coats, and those are all casual jackets...

Oh, look at this boa fleece! It's so fluffy and adorable!!

(I was a little worried that she wouldn't get to have much fun helping me shop...)

Oh, it's even reversible!
And both colors are really cute!

(But I guess my worries were misplaced.)

Wait, I shouldn't be the one having all the fun. I almost forgot that we're here to find you a new jacket, Kanade...!

Did you have any particular styles or traits in mind?

So, above all else, it needs to be warm...
But not too heavy, if possible.

What else...? It'd be nice if it were made of a material that's easy to maintain. Also, a simple design would be preferable.

I see.
In other words, it needs to be comfortable and easy to keep clean!

In that case, we might want to try going over to the outdoor goods shop...

The outdoor goods?

Yes! Recently, all the big outdoor brands have been making really cute clothes that you can wear day to day!

I had no idea. Then, why don't we go take a look?

Umm... Would you mind showing me the way?

Of course♪ It's right this way!

Here we are! What do you think?

Oh, these come in simple designs...
I could wear these like normal.

Hehe. See what I mean?
All that's left is to find something that's both warm and light...

Oh, what about this down jacket?
It's fluffy but not heavy, and seems really warm!

Yes, you're right. It shouldn't be all that taxing to wear this.

Oh, these overcoats also seem pretty versatile!

You can block the wind and stay warm by popping the collar... Hey, it even says that you can throw it in a washing machine!

Oh, you don't have to send it to the dry cleaners...?

Pretty incredible, right?!

I know. If you're interested in any of these, then why don't you try them on? We can try asking the staff.

Okay, let's do that.
Umm... Excuse me...

Thank you!

Phew...

I'm glad you were able to find a jacket you like!

I really appreciate it, Tenma.
There's no telling how long that would've taken if I were by myself. Honestly, I might've gotten exhausted and picked something just to be done...

Hehe♪ It's nice to know that you should be able to have a warm and cozy winter now♪

Yes, you've been a tremendous help.
Which is why I'd like to repay the favor somehow...

No, you don't have to do that!
I wanted to help you!

Plus, while looking around with you, I ended up finding a really cute scarf♪

But...

Not only that, I had a really fun time today thanks to you, Kanade!

Huh?

Because you're able to pull off whatever you wear! I really enjoyed watching you try on different clothes!

So, there's no need to pay me back!

Okay, if you're sure...

I'm sure! Oh, but...

If possible...

I would like to chat with you some more, Kanade.

With me...?

Yes! Ichi and Hona have already told me so much about you.

I've been hoping that we'd get a chance to sit down and chat!

I can't guarantee that we're going to strike up a good conversation. So, as long as you're okay with that...

You mean it?

Oh, but I have work after this...!
Can we meet again sometime soon?!

Sure.

Thank you so much!
Then, we should probably swap our contact info!

Umm... I forget how to actually do that on this device...

You tap here, hit this mark and...
Oh, there we go!

Yes, I can add you as a friend now...

All done!
Hehe. Thank you again so much!

Anyway, I'll message you later!
We can go to a cafe or something!

Okay. Have fun at work.

(I really can't thank Tenma enough...)

(I don't know if chatting with me will make up for what she did today...)

But I am sort of looking forward to talking to her again...

<Alright, thanks for waiting. I'm back.>

<Oh, Amia, welcome back...>

<What were you doing just now?>

<I went to grab a blanket.
And a toasty drink while I was at it♪>

<Yeah, it has been freezing lately.
It's hard to work at night without those things...>

<Really?>

<Wait, aren't you cold? I mean, if I don't turn the heater on, I can't draw because my hand becomes completely frozen!>

<Yeah, I guess artists do have it pretty rough this time of year. But speaking of how cold it's been...>

<You said you were gonna buy a new jacket, K. Did you already get one?>

<Oh, yes... I managed to get one.>

<What's more, while I was walking over to the mall today...>

<Really?! And Saki helped you pick it out?!>

<Yes, she helped me find a good one after asking me about my preferences. I really can't thank her enough...>

<I mean, I'm just as surprised that you went out to buy new clothes yourself, K...>

<Still, a jacket from an outdoor goods shop... I wouldn't have thought of that, but it probably does suit you really well.>

<Especially since they make stuff with cute designs now♪ I might go over sometime to try and dig up a few hidden gems.>

(Hm? My phone says I have a message.
But from who...?)

<Oh...>

<Thank you again for today, Kanade!
I had a lot of fun shopping with you♪>

<If possible, would you like to go to a cafe with Ichi and me sometime?>

(It's from Tenma...
And she's already inviting me to meet with her again.)

<Is something wrong, K...?>

<Oh, I received a message from Tenma...>

<She asked if I'd like to go to a cafe with her and Hoshino.>

<Hey, that's great♪
Saki's really nice, so I'm sure you two will hit it off!>

<She even went out of her way to make sure Ichika would be there. That's pretty sharp of her.>

<Sharp...?>

<You'll have an easier time talking to her if someone you both know is also there, no...?>

<Oh, right...>

<Then, before I forget, I'll reply to her.>

<Oh, what are you gonna say?>

<“Thank you very much for inviting me”...?>

<I'd go with something a little more casual.>

<More casual...>

<Then... “Sounds good”?>

<That should work...>

<It's sent...>

(Now I'm really looking forward to talking to her again...)
