Shizuku
Thank you for tutoring me today, Asahina. I was absent for this class due to work, so you really saved me.
Mafuyu
You're welcome.
I was also thinking about reviewing the same material, so it was a win-win for the both of us.

Speaking of work, Hinomori, everyone in my class has been talking about your commercial. I was honestly staggered when I saw how beautiful you looked.
Shizuku
But I can't rest on my laurels.
I need to make the most of my success by continuing to do my best.

(Even the other day, she agreed to do my share of the cleaning after I had to leave early...)

I'm sorry for yanking you so suddenly, but that pile of snow was about to fall on top of you.

I remember saying how beautiful that other embroidery you showed me the other day was. It's incredible how you're able to create these intricate designs.
Shizuku
Yes, for instance... I made the stems using back stitches, and the anthers on the stamens using French knots.
Mafuyu
I saw some girls doing embroidery for their home ec projects. I might just do the same now.
Mafuyu
We were recently asked to make some accessories of our choice as part of a project. That includes pen cases, pouches and such...
Shizuku
Getting to design your project however you like sounds like so much fun! What do you plan on doing for yours, Asahina?
Mafuyu
I'm going make a tissue box cover.
I found some instructions in the supply catalog, so I'll be following that mostly.

Shizuku
Oh, I'm sorry. I know this is sudden, and I don't actually know if I'll be able to help...
Shizuku
But you should be able to apply what I teach you to your project, which in turn should make it more fun.
Mafuyu
I appreciate the offer.
But you don't have to do that. I know your work as an idol keeps you very busy...

Shizuku
You've done so much for me in the past, Asahina. It would make me happy to know I could help you too.
Mafuyu
If you're willing to say that, then I might just have to take you up on your offer.

Oh, we're going to need some extra cloth and thread to use for practice. I should have some little pieces somewhere...

<I see.
That explains why you have all these sewing supplies out. And this pile of books on embroidery...>

Shizuku
Even today, she was kind enough to fill me in on the classes that I missed. It's like she's always there to help...
Shizuku
But this is my chance to help her.
That's why I want to give her a proper, good lesson.

<Oh, right. For our Valentine's Day, we're thinking about striking poses involving hearts when we talk with the audience and stuff. But I still haven't decided what I'm gonna do...>
Shizuku
Oh, that sounds like a wonderful way to celebrate Valentine's Day! You're all going to look so adorable.
Len
<I've been researching expressions and gestures that make me look cool and relaxed... But I felt that I should ask you, Shizuku, since you probably know a lot about this stuff.>
