miko's light novels

A sigh escaped from [Name]'s lips, as she signed a paper, she hummed as she signed more, trying to make the time pass by quicker. Kaveh was sick so Alhaitham took the day off so he could take care of his boyfriend, and [Name] was rather lonely in her office. The door to her office opened and in strolled a woman dressed in white, her pink hair flowing behind her, and the front desk employee scrambling after her.

[Name] held up her hand signaling for the front desk receptionist to stop and to leave, "Yae Miko, pleasant surprise, what brings you here?" The woman's lips were pulled into a small smirk, "A little birdy told me you declined the Kamisato siblings," [Name] rolled her eyes and looked back down to her work, "Did they tell you? I said that they were entitled by suggesting I get them for a show, make the clothes, and host it in my museum."

Yae Miko nodded, "I have a proposal to you then," [Name] glanced up momentarily to urge the woman to continue. "I recently released some new light novels, and I was wondering if I could ask you to do a line based on some of the works," [Name] hummed looking down at her papers once more signing.

"Depends, will you or your wife pay? And who is going to be in it? And where will we be hosting this?" Yae Miko smiled with a little laugh, "Ei will, and I'll hold it at Grand Narukami Shrine, any objections?"

[Name] pursed her lips, "And when will this deadline be?" Miko crossed her arms thinking, "By sometime in the next few months, I can get you at least twelve models, two for each book, and two outfits for each, how much do you think that would be costing?" [Name] hummed before moving papers to get a blank sheet of paper and doing some calculations.

"Twelve models, two models for each book, and two outfits for each model... So, you want twenty-four outfits, four for each book... And I won't be hosting, will either of you be catering towards guests and critics?" Miko clasped her hands together with a small nod of her head. "I will be catering for that since Ei will be paying for the outfits and exposure for my publishing house."

[Name] nodded while lightly pulling off her reading glasses from her nose, "Once you tell me the models, I'll need you to call them down so I can get measurements, then after that it would be smooth sailing, what specific fabrics?"

"Nothing, just make sure to read the books so you can get inspiration," Miko smiled mischievously, and [Name] sighed while looking down at her papers, "More money for you in your pocket either way, I'll have Alhaitham read them and give me feed back then." With that [Name] went back to more papers, "Ah, ah, ah. No [Name], I want you to read the novels," [Name] frowned a bit irritated, "That's just going to take more time, I have enough on my plate as it is."

Miko just smile more, "And you need to get some sort of romance in your life [Name], you work far too hard and too much. You need someone in your life now to take care of you, and Ajax just wasn't the one." [Name] frowned hearing that name again, "And why are you lecturing me about this Guuji?" The pink haired lady smirked, "Because you are hovering over your desk looking like a shrimp dear."

[Name]'s cheeks burned as she straightened her posture and cleared her throat, "Quiet, and plus I'm not really looking to start a new relationship after the last, maybe some harmless flirting, but that's about it. I'm not going into relationships yet Guuji," Miko shrugged her shoulders, "That's fine if you don't get lonely. I'm still your friend before I am your business partner, understood?"

[Name] nodded slowly, "Well, I'll head off then, will you join me and Ei for dinner sometime soon?" [Name] looked up from her small sketches, "When I'm free, I'll call you, okay?" Yae Miko nodded as she turned on her heel to leave, "Make sure not to overwork yourself with this project, okay?" [Name] waved her off with a small smile as the woman left through the door.
