The Perils of Dressing Up
Silva is a familiar face at breakfast time, so when she is absent one morning, Lyria is concerned for her well-being. Together with (Captain) and Vyrn, they pay a visit to her quarters to check up on her. They find her struggling to don a yukata she received from Mama Gunsmith. Even after successfully wrapping herself in the garment, she struggles to maneuver in the unfamiliar attire. (Captain) and Lyria decide to accompany her for the day dressed in their own yukata in an effort to help her get used to it. At the end of the day, (Captain) and Silva promise to attend a festival in yukata together someday.
(Captain) and Vyrn enjoy are hanging out together on a rare day off for the crew.
Having finished breakfast, they encounter Lyria as they take a leisurely stroll.
Lyria: Oh, (Captain). Have you seen Silva this morning by any chance?
Vyrn: Hm? I can't say I remember seeing her. I've been spending all of my time with (Captain) here, though, so I wasn't really paying attention.
(Captain) and Vyrn tilt their heads slightly at the girl's inquiry. She appears to be a little concerned.
Lyria: No one has seen her yet, not even at breakfast. She's always waking up so early, so I thought that was a bit strange. I'm worried that something may have happened...
Vyrn: She was definitely with us on the job yesterday, so maybe she's feeling a little beat and taking advantage of the day off... But nah, you're right. That'd be unlike her.
Vyrn: Snipes's not one to go oversleeping or anything, no matter the circumstance. She hasn't caught a cold or something like that, has she?
The three look at each other and nod silently, an implicit understanding of what they must do next.
Vyrn: Only one way to find out!
Lyria: Yes! Let's give her door a knock now.
Lyria: Good morning, Silva! It's Lyria!
Silva's Voice: Oh, good morning, Lyria. I think I heard Vyrn just a moment ago too. Is (Captain) with you by any chance?
Lyria: Yep! We were a bit worried since we didn't see you at breakfast this morning, so we just came to check up on you...
Silva's Voice: Ah, sorry for worrying you! It's just that I've been fiddling with this new outfit of mine. I've never worn something quite like this before...
Vyrn: A new type of outfit, huh?
Silva's Voice: It really would just be faster if I asked someone with more experience with these things to help me. Do you mind waiting a moment?
Lyria: ...?
Silva: Sorry to keep you waiting. I couldn't exactly greet you in the hall before putting something on, at least.
Silva: I'm having trouble putting on this yukata.
Lyria: Oh, a yukata! Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen you wear one, Silva!
Silva: Right. I've seen (Captain) and you all wear them during our excursions to Auguste plenty of times, so I thought that maybe I should get in on the trend.
Silva: After all, you look fantastic while wearing them! So I told Mama Gunsmith all about them, and she decided that she wanted to try her hand at making one. Here it is...
Silva opens her door to reveal her bed. The yukata in question lies spread out over the sheets.
Silva: She really went and sewed one up for me.
Lyria: Wow, it looks so beautiful! She must be an amazing seamstress to be able to make a yukata from scratch!
Silva: She mentioned in the accompanying letter that it was a good opportunity for her to try something new. I never thought that she would actually send me one, though... I'm not sure how I can thank her.
Vyrn: Hehe, well, I think you gotta start with just successfully getting the thing on!
Silva: Yes, you're right. I just can't seem to figure it out, though...
Silva: Every time I try, the neck portion here becomes misaligned...
Gran is the Main Character
Lyria: Oh, I see! Putting on and wearing yukata definitely takes a little getting used to.
Lyria: I should be able to help you put it on!
Silva: Oh, can I ask you to take the time? I would really appreciate it.
Djeeta is the Main Character
Lyria: Oh, I see! Putting on and wearing yukata definitely takes a little getting used to.
Choose: Would you like me to help you?
Silva: Oh, can I ask you to take the time? I would really appreciate it.

Silva: I should have just asked someone with as much experience as you from the get-go.
Lyria: That's totally fine! I've worn one plenty of times in Auguste too, so I'm ready to help!
Djeeta is the Main Character
Lyria: Sorry, (Captain)! You don't mind, right?
Vyrn: In that case, I'll go to the kitchen and tell 'em to save you a bit of the leftovers from breakfast!
Gran is the Main Character
Vyrn: In that case, (Captain), let's go to the kitchen and tell 'em to save Silva a bit of the leftovers from breakfast!

Silva: Looks like I can always rely on you for cover. Thank you, (Captain).
Lyria's Voice: Ah, please wait! Before you go, we should do your hair like this... There we go!
Lyria's Voice: Ta-da!
Silva's Voice: Thank you, Lyria! At last, I too can take part in the yukata experience.
Vyrn: Oh, looks like you've finished changing!
Silva: Sorry for the wait. Thank you again, you all.
Silva: Though, has it already started to slip? I've only taken a few steps...
Lyria: It took me awhile to get used to walking in a yukata at first, too.
Vyrn: The folds tend to rub together and cause a bit of slippage. I was told to just take it easy and go at a bit slower of a pace than I'm used to.
Silva: It seems that big steps are a no-no, then. I don't want the belt to come loose.
Silva: The last thing I want is to appear unkempt out in public. Maybe I should wait to go out like this until I've had a bit of practice walking about.
Choose: You can practice around the airship!
Silva: Urgh, even if it's among friends and comrades, I'd rather not...
Vyrn: Haha, oh, don't worry, Snipes! We wouldn't mind.
Vyrn: I think we all know how finnicky yukata can be at first.
Choose: I'd like to see an unkempt Silva, just once!
Silva: Huh!
Lyria: Oh, I was thinking the same thing!
Silva: Lyria, you too...
Lyria: It's just that you're typically on guard and ready for anything at a moment's notice. I thought it might be cute to see you loosened up a bit, if you know what I mean.
Vyrn: Yeah, we're all pals here. You could afford to relax a bit!

Silva: I-is that so?
Silva: Well... how about this? (Captain), would you do the same with me? I think I could relax and have a bit of fun that way.
Lyria: Oh, good idea! I'll even join you guys!
Before Silva even has a chance to say anything else, (Captain) and Lyria exchange a quick nod and rush off in their separate ways to get changed.
For Silva, the day has turned into a yukata-wearing crash course.
Silva: Hm, so just how small should I be making my strides?
Lyria: It's a little hard to explain in words... I know! Please watch me!
Silva: I see, I see... One foot's length at a time, then?
(Captain) sneaks up behind the ambling Silva and begins to tickle her sides.
Silva: Eep!
Silva: Ha, ha-ha, ha... That tickles, (Captain)! P-please stop...
Choose: You were bending your back too much!
Silva: W-was I? I shifted all of my attention to my feet, so I wasn't even thinking about my posture.
Silva: Hm? Does that really require tickles to fix?
(Captain) teases Silva with a stuck out tongue, and she retaliates by poking (Captain) on the cheek.
Silva: Hey! I'm trying my best here. You can't just go around bullying me like that!
Silva: Goodness, what am I going to do with you...
Lyria: Silva! How'd it go?
Lyria: Wha!
Lyria comes rushing back toward Silva and (Captain). In her hurry, her feet get tripped up and she begins to stumble.
Silva: Ah!
Silva: Lyria, are you okay?
Lyria: Teehee, thank you, Silva. And here I thought I had gotten used to moving around in a yukata...
Vyrn: If you haven't worn one in a while, you can expect your brain to reset itself in a few places it seems.
Lyria: I think you're right. Silva, let's keep practicing together!
(Captain) takes this chance to also check for any yukata abnormalities.
As night falls and Lyria and Vyrn head off to help with dinner preparations, Silva and (Captain) step onto the deck.
Silva: I think I've gotten the hang of it, but I'm not sure if there is anything I might be missing...
Choose: You shouldn't worry too much.
Silva: Is it that noticeable? Yes, I suppose you're right.
Silva: Like you said before, I should probably try relaxing a bit more. It's not every day you get to wear such a fun outfit.
Silva: Oh, (Captain)... Again with the teasing?
Silva: Though, I was thinking that even if something is a little off with the outfit, some can still make it work in their favor.
Silva: Like you, (Captain).

Silva smiles softly. Anyone who would see her now would likely think that she looks even more beautiful than she imagines.
Choose: A yukata really suits you!
(Captain) suddenly compliments Silva, as if realizing that the focus on teasing may have been taking too much priority.
Silva: Heh... Haha, what's gotten into you, all of a sudden?
Silva: But really, thank you. I'm really glad to hear you say that above anyone else.
Silva: I think our day of practice here has really proven to be fruitful.
Silva: I should be able to join you all at those festivals now, at least. Truth be told, I've been wanting to try one of those shooting games.
Silva: Will you let me know the next time you go out to one?
(Captain) smiles and nods, then offers up a pinky swear.
The day ends with Silva feeling confident in an unfamiliar guise.
