[ While making network posts is never easy, Jasmine is encouraged that she's getting better at it lately. The effects of previous events have definitely taken their toll, and that's partly why she's making this address in the first place. ]

Hi, everyone. I have a short request to make.

Before the war my healing power increased to its maximum level. Since then I've been working at Pokétopia café and the clinic, as normal, but...I'd like a new goal.

[ Her Magnemite floats into view, squealing a bit in annoyance. Jasmine smiles calmly at the creature. ] It's too bad I can't train my Pokémon here, but they don't have their abilities right now. Besides, they deserve some relaxation.

If anyone has any odd jobs they need doing, I can help out, although I'm not physically strong. Or if you could recommend a good hobby, that would be nice... [ She probably needs to do some relaxing as well. ]

[ She has a moment of self-awareness and hesitates for a moment. ]

Um...this is a little selfish. So, uh, also, how is everybody holding up? Since the war, that is. My ear is always...open? Wait, I don't think that's what it's called. Never mind. Though I'd still like to know, I suppose.

We could practice sewing a pattern on to a pillow or just a square of cloth. We can work our way up to bigger clothes.

[ Turning a corner, she scans the area, looking for the materials they need. ]

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

I think that could work! I don't know how to sew but... [mumble] I know I'll do fine!

[And not accidentally poke the needle a lot] I'll be sure to make lots of flowers on the pillow though! And maybe if I could add some pokemon on it...

[action]

[ironclad]

If we practice, we'll be sure to learn quickly...

Flowers would be easier, unless the Pokémon is something like a Ditto.

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

Dittos work for now! And then we can work on Emboar and maybe even some Munnas while I'm at it!

[And then an idea came up!]

Oh, do you think we can make something as a gift to Asgard? Maybe like a quilt or something?

[action] DAMN DREAMWIDTH

[ironclad]

Oh, a quilt...we could connect all the pieces that we work on while practicing together, and when it's finished it'll show how far we've come...

But it's best to start small.

[action] Yay Jasmine gave me an A!

[needsmoregreen]

Mhmm, just like that! And if anyone else wants to join in, they can too! It'll be like one big giant gift to everyone!

B-but yes...we should start small first. I got a little too excited!

[action]

[ironclad]

That's alright, it's a really nice idea. When we've gotten used to the basics, maybe we could ask everyone to chip in...?

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

Mhmm, we should!

And maybe we can teach them how to sew too! Once they do, they'll just have to help out! [She's really excited about this!]

[action]

[ironclad]

We could even offer sewing classes. That way, everyone can learn together.

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

Mhmm, exactly! And if two people learn and then we can go to four and so on!

I wonder if it would be big enough for the Gods to see...maybe they'll just a chance to say something about it!

[action]

[ironclad]

Even something so small can become a lot greater with time and patience.

They'll be happy...it's a sign of everybody's friendship.

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

Yeah...and with this time of the year...

I think it's for the best, I want to show everyone how happy I've been here. There is war but it means a lot to me to have friends here.

[action]

[ironclad]

Friends always try new things, too. It's showing that we can carry on and not give up. [ wow, who knew sewing was so profound? ]

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

[That's the epicness of sewing]

Exactly! And since sewing can be a little difficult, we cannot give up on it!

[With that said, she manage to spot a store nearby]

Hey...is that the store we're looking for?

[action]

[ironclad]

[ Approaching it, she peers in through the window. ]

It looks like it has a number of fabrics and materials. Let's go and see.

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

[And in they go! However, the moment that Bianca walks right in...]

A...Ah...AH-CHOO!

[Sniff] Whoops, I didn't mean to do that. [And when she looked around the store...hm...]

Do you think that this material would be good enough?

[action]

[ironclad]

...You're not getting a cold, are you? [ She has a bad feeling about this! ]

Oh, that's very beautiful. What a wonderful shade of blue. We could make a great pillow case or handkerchief with this.

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

[sniff!] No, I'm okay! I think there's some dust here, that's all!

That's great! Now we just need some more fabric to match! Hm...what other stuff goes well with this? I don't know anything about fabric so...

[action]

[ironclad]

It is a little dusty...and old. Vintage.

I think a darker shade would be good. Then we can sew a border or pattern on to it.

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

So...this is kind of like a ruin in a way!

[Kind of...]

Okay then, let's see if I can find anything else. Hm...

Would this be too much? The yellow can be like the sun and the blue can be the sky!

[action]

[ironclad]

[ woah, that's a bright shade of yellow... ] It would definitely be...eye-catching.

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

[Because yellow is an awesome color!]

So does that mean we should use it then?

[action]

[ironclad]

...Okay. There's no harm in it being bright...so let's buy it.

[action]

[needsmoregreen]

Hm...what about you? What kind of fabric do you want to buy? I want to make sure you get a say in this too!

[action]

[ironclad]

Hm, I like lace. [ She finds some on a shelf nearby. It's very pure, white, and delicate. ] Though I'm not sure how you'd go about attaching it...
