I'm going to need an outfit of 'evening attire' in a few days.

... Is there anyone who knows about those things and wouldn't mind advising me on where to buy it, or what it should be like, or things like that?

Would it be all right if I visited? I can bring... something.

I don't want to be the one to comment on that, if you know what I mean.

I do, but I wouldn't mind hearing your perspective.

You don't need to bring anything, Hanatarou, but if you want to visit...that would be...nice.

I apologize...and thank you. My misstep was a grave one. I am fortunate you were there. I seem to continue to be an inconvenience.

[small_comfort]

All right. Thank you. When is okay?

... Since you're still here to give an apology, that means I don't need it. I didn't do anything I didn't want to.

private; orz pretend I answered this earlier? ;_; <3

[wingstock]

Any time that is convenient for you.

...

I owe you a great deal, want aside.

private; consider it PRETENDED!

[small_comfort]

Then I'll be there in a few minutes.

...I suppose you can owe me things if it'll make you feel better, but I don't want them.

Evening attire? o.o

Well, at home that means fancy clothes. Clothes you wouldn't wear every day. Materials like velvet or silk or really good wool or something else just as nice. It's formal.

[small_comfort]

Yes, it's for a dinner...

Velvet or silk or really good wool... I see!
Um, what kind of garment, though? Should I wear hakama?

[notawhiteant]

You should wear like a western suit, eh? You'd look good in it.

[small_comfort]

Oh, thank you!

Western suit is like...
What kind of a suit is a Western suit?

[notawhiteant]

You know, like a sport-coat with a tie and trousers.

[small_comfort]

Sport-coat...
Sport-coat, tie, and trousers.
I'll remember those so I can ask someone at the store about them. Thank you!
Why is it called a 'sport-coat'?
