Casey, I don't think any of that is dumb. That is a wish borne of love and I can not think of a better way to honor your family.
[Rue just knows they would all be so endlessly proud of Casey today, for the young man he is growing up to become.]
I'd be happy to show you how.

[Outside of their garden and their own personal closet, Rue can't think of a prettier sight in all of Folkmore for them.]
Indeed! Please, feel free to touch and explore, see if any of them call to you.

--Ah, free to touch, even?
[ He.. will do that, then. To explore and touch these colors and patterns. In truth, his current quest was for new armor, but there was also a matter of fashion to consider. Something to suit the rest of his attire. Stuff to express himself? Lex did like to work with these things, but this sort of fabric, able to be purchased by him?
It's quite a surreal thing, really.
So he'll make to touch at these and look them over. As he goes, he takes out his leather, enchanted gloves and tug them on, comparing their golds or black to the rest of the fabrics. ]

[Honestly, plants should be happy with herbal tea.]
Thank you, Caduceus. I will commit all of this to memory, just in case any of it should ever be relevant. [which considering folkmore... will probably be sooner than later] And I feel much more at peace knowing I have you on speed dial as well.

[Rue's free paw slaps at his arm, a laugh already bubbling up at their beak.]
You did not!
You did not!
Mm, yes, of course. If anything happens, don't hesitate to call on me. At the very least, you ought to see him under its effects one day. He seemed downright giddy.
[Honestly kinda looked like he drugged your kid, Rue. It was a little funny.]

[He hadn't expected Rue to refuse, of course, but the relief in his body language when they agree is obvious. He's so grateful.]
Okay... yeah, okay. Thank you. I'll figure out what I want to do, and... when I'm ready. [He can come by the shop some time. That'll be perfect.] ...Mom, did I- were you on your, um. After-wedding party? [He forgot the word. Honeymoon?] Did I ruin it?

[The magical chime at the door sings out Amity's arrival, so Rue, who is only over by the register, rearranging a new collection of summer hats up on the accessory wall, only has to turn their head around to see just who it is.]
Oh, hello again, dear!
[Just gonna sweep over to where Amity is looking so wide-eyed up at everything, the owlbear dropping a paw affectionately against the young woman's shoulder.]
It is so lovely to see you again!

[Tall!? That is hardly ever the first impression when it comes to Rue, so they are surprised enough that it leaves them laughing sweetly in return, a little musical trill of a sound.]
It is a pleasure to meet you, Mai. I'm afraid my Casey didn't get my great height, but he does have my excellent taste in friends. So if you are a friend of his, then I have no doubt you'll be a friend of mine as well. My name is Rue.

[Amity blinks in surprise at first, then smiles a bit shyly, particularly at the paw-draping. Still getting used to that.]
Ah- hello! I thought this might have been your shop. [The name's kind of a dead giveaway, in fairness.] It's beautiful!

[Well, Mai cheated and Casey sent her a picture of Rue, so she knew they were an owlbear, but the height was a surprise! They have to be a whole 50 or 60cm difference. And she thought Akechi-kun was tall, he's a shorty compared to Rue-san.]
It's a pleasure to meet you, Rue-san. I just arrived here and I don't have much in the way of clothes or lore yet and Casey-kun said you're the person for the job.
[She thinks about something for a moment, the clothes in here look so nice and expensive.]
I can do chores and errands to make up for what I can't afford.

Invite me next time, perhaps?
[Look, they want to see it too]

[Their talons brush the bangs out of his face, reassuring and gentle.]
No, Casey, you did not. Knickolas and I have just been home. You didn't interrupt a thing and you certainly ruined nothing. Don't worry yourself about that.

Do you think so?
[The way that Rue lifts their other paw and gestures around to all of the gorgeous decor probably makes it seem like they are fishing for compliments, but really, they are just delighted that anyone else sees their vision.]
Have you been well, darling? I assume you were reunited with our dear Luz, yes?

[To be fair, everyone is a shorty compared to Rue. But that's not a fact that they hate so much anymore. It's comforting in a way, to be the protector and to have wings big enough to hug everyone all at once.]
How about this? We can work out an outfit or two together and you can pay me back when you're able to, hm?

Okay! I can do that, I wouldn't want to short change you when you make such beautiful clothing. It's like art!
[She smiles brightly up at Rue and offers her hand to shake.]
Deal?
[She smiles brightly up at Rue and offers her hand to shake.]
Deal?
Of course! As much as I love to look at the combinations of colors and patterns, sometimes I become inspired simply by the feel of fabric. So if you see anything you might like, we can set it aside and make a plan for it.
[They give Lex all of the space he needs to admire their fabric wall, watching the way he pulls on his gloves.]
What lovely gloves! Did you get them here in Folkmore?

I'll ask Hunter if he minds.
[He's pretty sure Hunter will not mind.]
[He's pretty sure Hunter will not mind.]
[He opens his mouth - almost as if to question further - then thinks twice of it and nods again. He trusts Rue, so... there's no need.]
...It's... been kind of a crazy week, huh. [It's only just hitting him now. So much happened in just a couple of days.]

[Eagerly Amity nods, though she can't seem to drag her gaze away from the shop and all the lovely options.]
Oh- yes! We were able to meet in Wintermute shortly after. I live in the new Owl House now, with her and Eda.
[Or maybe it's not technically an Owl House without Hooty? Amity just sort of assumes that anywhere Eda lives becomes the Owl House.]

Even if he does, at least tell me, so I can watch from my window.

[His trust in them and their words means everything.]
A crazy year, you mean.
A crazy year, you mean.
Perhaps you could teach me how to do a video on these relics, and I could pass that along.
[....
A quiet sigh.]
Yeah...
[That just sounds so much worse.]

-Nah, these were a gift to me from back home. Though I suppose these are likely copies; I got them as a reward for doing one of those experiments for Thoth.
[ there's a hint of nostalgia in his voice as he opened and closed his palm, and a soft exhale before he keeps up the comparing of colors and brush on fingers on the fabric, now he knew he was allowed. To him, that seemed generous - people might damage the samples! But still, if he could he would. ]
