[There's the sudden sound of a bunch of boxes falling to the ground, contents spilling everywhere as the journal's camera points up to the ceiling. It shifts suddenly to focus on a particular pink-haired girl who was unceremoniously dumped into the back room of her shop on top of said boxes.]

Ugh...thanks for the warning, jerks. [She begins to untangle herself from the boxes of ribbons and fabrics, moving the journal closer to speak. For the most part, she seems pretty unharmed.]

Hey...so what day is it anyway? Here's hoping I wasn't gone too long, totally bad for business. [There's a slight beat, suddenly remembering something. You know, her housemate that was alone for like a week.] Haruhi, report. [She works her way out from under the pile of materials and the door to the back room swings open, allowing her to enter the main part of the shop.]

Neku...you better have made it back. That was pretty low of them, keeping us sort of together and then sending you back first. Besides, I was right in the middle of designing a n--

[There's a long pause suddenly as she really takes a look at the shop. She's staring at a row of dresser dummies, counting them in her head.]

All right, which one of you broke into my shop when I was gone?!

[She smiles happily at her giggles. Shiki likes her! Good! Keimi swims a bit closer to the camera, showing off her top.]

This is one of his designs, actually! The star design is his mark of his "Criminal" brand. This one's my favorite, too~.

[Shiki's always willing to give people a chance, and the fact that Keimi's enthusiastic about fashion just adds even more points. She takes a closer look at the top, mostly intrigued by the fact that a starfish created it.] That's not half-bad. Actually, it's really cute. The colors are a good combination.

It's one of his simpler designs, but I really like it. Maybe one day I'll be good enough to make simple designs too.

I don't think you'll need much practice. Having the passion to do it is what's really important, not just the skill.

Really? You think so? [She doesn't have much skill, but she has boat loads of passion! This will work!]

There's a reason the shop's named what it is. Trust me.

You're totally right. We can make some amazing stuff together!

I'm counting on it. I'd love to start incorporating other worlds' designs into the shop. It'll be a good jumpstart.

I would just be happy learning how to do what you do, but if you want, I'd love to share some of my world's fashion~!

How about this? We'll do both. Okay?

Totally perfect~!

Looking forward to it! Take your time, don't rush. I'm usually around anyway so just whenever you're ready we'll start working.

Sure, sure~! I'll come visit tomorrow, okay?

Sounds perfect! I'll see you then.
