Ai #343: Your Exclusive Stylist

Ai

This jacket looks so good! Hey, look! Isn't it so cool? Try this on too!

Player

Um, Ai, I can't carry any more clothes. Let's stop picking out more for a sec, okay?

Ai

Whaaat? But I'm not don—oh, whoa! Your hands really are super full. Sorry 'bout that!

Player

I wasn't expecting you to start handing off clothes to me one after another the second we entered the store.

Ai

I said I'm sorry! It's unconscious. I can't help looking for clothes that would look good on you. Once I come up with an outfit in my head, I want to see you in it next.

Player

Okay. I kinda get it, I think.

Ai

I'll stop picking things out for the time being. Next, I hope you're excited to try it all on!

[Fade out.]

Ai

Are you dressed? Can I open the curtain?

Player

Just a second! I need a bit longer… Okay, you can come in.

Ai

All right, I'm coming in!

[Fade in.]

Player

W-Well? I'm not sure how I feel since this jacket and pants aren't styles I'd usually pick. I guess my heart is kinda racing.

Player

I know you wouldn't choose anything weird for me, but if it doesn't look as good as you envisioned, you can absolutely be honest and say so!

Ai

Um, no… I think I'm the one with the racing heart. Someone bring some ice, 'cause you look so hot my heart is on fire!

Player

Ice?

Ai

You're working this so hard. If you got 100 people together, every one of them would fall head over heels and right into the underworld for you. Yup, we're buying this. I'm dead serious. To the register!

Player

I'm really not picking up what you're putting down. Do I actually look bad?

Ai

You look SO good! Pure fire, better than I imagined! You have to wear that outfit the next time we hang out with the rest of the club!

Player

Huh?! Y-You want me to wear this in front of everyone?! I think I might be too shy for that.

Ai

Oh, come now! Don't be shy, just give it a try! Besides, would I ever pick out something weird?

Player

Uhhh… F-Fine!

[Fade in/out.]

Ai

And there we go, purchase made! Spending splurges stimulate the economy!

Option 1: “That was a great shopping trip.”

Player

That was a great shopping trip, all thanks to you. I appreciate it.

Ai

You're very welcome. I had fun getting you to wear all those clothes I picked out.

Option 2: “I get to look fancy for the first time in a while.”

Player

Thanks for picking out nice things for me. I spend so much time at home these days going over concert prep or songwriting. I get to look fancy for the first time in a while!

Ai

And thank you for all you do for us. I really hope our little shopping trip today helped cheer you up.

Player

I want to do something to thank you. What can I do for you?

Ai

You don't have to worry about that. I did this because I wanted to—oh, what are you looking at? Makeup?

Player

Yeah. This one…

Ai

Huh? Wh-Whoa, what're you…

Player

Hmm, I was right. This nail color would look super good on you. Will you let me give this to you as a present?

Player

Ai? Why is your face so red?

Ai

Wait, you're asking me “why” right now? After you took my hand and got up close?

Player

*Gasp* I-I'm so sorry! I was wondering if this color would suit you and wanted to check!

Ai

I know that you don't have any ulterior motives. But when you come at me with such a serious face, it's bad for my heart.

Ai

Actually… You should wear a different outfit the next time we hang out with everyone.

Player

Huh? Not the one we just bought?

Ai

Well, you see, the moment everyone sees you all dolled up in that, they'll be obsessed. And I wanna be the only one who gets to see you in the clothes I picked out for you.
