Morginn flipped through his sketchbook, staring at each new drawing and sighing. Lately it seemed like all he'd been doing where designs for freshling clothing. He would have written it off to ideas for Hikaru (the little freshling was just too cute!), but there were some designs and colors that he knew wouldn't have interested Hikaru in the slightest.
His shoulders were slumped, wings and antennae both drooping a bit. He was supposed to meet Kaoru at the fabric store (they wanted to check out any sales that might be going on, and possibly work out ideas on outfits for Hunter's Jubilee); if he didn't want to be late he was going to have to leave now. He got up from his desk and stuffed his sketchbook in his bag, then wrapped himself in the layers needed for a trip outside.
Even his walk was a little more dejected than normal. He'd known he was interested in imbuing a stone for a while now, but moping wasn't like him. Maybe it was the holiday. It wasn't all about romantic love, but he couldn't help but notice all the cute couples frolicking around everywhere. Proposal rates seemed to skyrocket around this time...
