[The video opens to show Robyn sitting by the window in her room at the Inn. There are some craft supplies on the windowsill behind her, namely some pieces of white cloth and a pair of scissors. Robyn herself is holding a needle and thread, since she's working on making a teru teru bozu.]

Is anybody else makin' these...teru teru things? I don't like sewin' much, but I wanted to make some anyway. We had so much rain in April, it would be nice to have more sun. I hope those storm sprites will like them.

[And also because she wants to see a tiny fairy wedding outside her window. No matter how strange things can get here, she still gets excited about what she's heard in stories, including fairies.]

I can make the bodies just fine, but... [Robyn snips the end off her thread with the scissors and turns the teru teru bozu towards the camera. The face she's tried to sew on it has a rather crooked smile.] I can't get the faces right. Does anyone have any advice?

[Merlyn, Robyn's falcon, is perched on her chair and cheeps something to Robyn that makes her give him an exasperated look.] Oh, as if you know anythin' about sewin', smarty-feathers.

I normally draw them in with a marker instead of trying to sew buttons or anything else for a face. That way you can at least use some chalk before going in with the marker!
alchemists: (everything is alright)

[personal profile] alchemists 2021-06-04 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
You can still make more, there isn't a limit on them.

[ Maybe making more will bring better luck. ]
alchemists: (:o c)

[personal profile] alchemists 2021-06-06 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
If you would like I could help out with drawing the faces and you can do the bodies?

[ A small, embarrassed laugh, and a shaking of her head. ]

Try as some of the castle maids might have, I never could pick up on needlework of any sort.

[ And then a brighter chuckle. ]

I suppose, given my proficiency with my lance, I just needed something bigger, eh?
beaumains: (fear of the conviction of me and you)

[personal profile] beaumains 2021-06-03 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! How about a work song? That usually helps, right?

[ Though that wouldn't necessarily improve Robyn's technique... ]
beaumains: (we are the true believers)

[personal profile] beaumains 2021-06-03 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
The words matter less than the rhythm itself. You find a song that matches your motions, and the work becomes that much more fun!

I just draw on where I want to sew and it turned out fine?

[He said before showing off his poor attempt to make the doll.]

Or at least, I think it did.
whatsamada: (Unchained)

[personal profile] whatsamada 2021-06-03 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
You're telling me, I don't really know how to sew. I only learned it based on a couple of videos I've seen online!

[Because that's where one goes to find information these days!]

[personal profile] whatsamada 2021-06-04 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[There was a pause from his end before he gave a small smile.]

All the more reason to look up how to sew right? Just in case if your mom isn't around to help you anymore.

Hey, Robyn-chan~ I've made quite a few teru teru bozu, if you want, I know a couple o ways you can do it without sewing!

roseeclair: (Perfect~!)

TMW you remember that your character is, in fact, pretty darn good at sewing.

[personal profile] roseeclair 2021-06-04 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)

Yeah, it's no problem at all! Where do you wanna meet up? I've got a sewing kit we can use and I can grab more art supplies... and I can bake snacks too. Gotta stay fueled, right~? [Wink!]

[personal profile] roseeclair 2021-06-11 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)

Sounds good; I'll meet you there!

[A couple hours and a rented horse later, Makoto arrives with the promised sewing kit, a box of freshly baked cookies, and a spare umbrella in case Robyn needs one (all thankfully not soaked with the help of the Dry Spell). And it's not too long before the spots the young blonde.]

Hey, Robyn~

We traditionally just used ink and a brush. [He's amused by the attempts to do it more difficultly.] A modern marker would also work. Or cross-stitching if you feel fancy about it.

But they're known as bald-headed monks, so you shouldn't try to make them too pretty. It was based on an idiot who told a lord he could control the weather. He could not. So he was beheaded. [Nobunaga, that wasn't necessary.]
konpeito_aji: (Ambition larger than life)

[personal profile] konpeito_aji 2021-06-28 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Nah, they probably care more about personality. Sprites have a different idea of pretty, and are more into gruesome stories.

And probably because monks versus lords is a story as old as time.
