Riku has already come a long way since I brought her home. She still doesn't talk, but she's much more interactive with people than she used to be. Yesterday, in fact, she actually took initiative to interact with one of my clients...or rather, my client's child. The lady had come in with her infant son for a fitting. The boy slept well at first

If you're looking to challenge her or give her something else to occupy her young bright mind, I would suggest music. It's a very respectable pursuit for all classes and both genders as well as being a non-verbal way of expressing yourself once you've mastered the basics.

As much as I'd love to, if she shows an interest in it, currently we can't afford lessons, much less the instrument for her to practice on.

Although I do know a few people that owe me favors...hmmmm.

I'm sure there are instructors who teach commoner children and are priced accordingly. And it depends on her instrument, for a beginner a cheap used one would suffice.

Unless of course you are hinting that I should come and get yet another new wardrobe for my fox. I know winter is approaching but I was hoping to put off getting him fitted for clothes for a couple more months.

Perhaps. It's something I'll have to look into. Though at this point, I'm not even sure it's something she'd be interested in, so it might not be an issue at all.

I was, at least, not intending to hint at that. But I will never tell a client I don't want them to come. However, if you do decide it's time for new clothes, as long as Kamio-san hasn't grown too much since your last visit, I should be able to save him the trouble of being measured and use the set of numbers I already have.

You have to admit, Riku has a rather good role model.

[kite_e]

I like to think so :) I don't know what she came with, though. She might have genius parents, for all I know, and be a genius herself. Maybe she just already knows everything I'm teaching her.

[pterois_mizuki]

You taught her that it's ok to talk and go near people. That's something she didn't have before.

[kite_e]

Heh. I suppose you're right. And she doesn't lash out like she used to. Sometimes she still gets tense around certain people, but she doesn't immediately smack at them or bite them.
