[ Elfnein's got a pile of cut out cloth, rubber bands and cotton filling all in neat stacks, she's been making lots of Teru Teru Bozu and trying to decorate them to look like people she knows. ]

If anyone needs help with making Teru Teru Bozu I can offer some of my supplies and guidance.

[ She's putting the finishing touches on one with a little bow and a smiling face. ]

This sort of activity is common where I'm originally from!

Ah good. I never did them much myself, but I know my baby sister Oichi did. Did you have family to make them with?

[alchemists]

I don't.

[ Though her friends back home are pretty much her family at this point. ]

But, I have some friends that have done this sort of crafting with me before.

[konpeito_aji]

Close friends are even better than family.

[Alas, he has none. Sort of.]

I think that's true in my case, I would be sad if anything ever happened to them.
