A general question: has anyone ever received something from Retrospec that was intended for somebody else? Or something you were certain WASN'T yours, even if the ticket said otherwise?
Because I do have memories of a bear, but it definitely was not THIS one.
((pretend this bear is 100% handmade and doesn't have the Stieff logo or the name on it's foot, okay--))

[ She is absolutely shooting herself in the foot with that one, but hey. She doesn't mind it all too much. ]
Do you honestly think so? Just because it might have seemed out of place doesn't mean that she couldn't have done it. It might be improper, but I can definitely see a cute princess in love making a teddy bear in secret for the person she loves.
But what do you mean by that??
no subject
[Sorry, Mio, he couldn't resist the jab at that one. Hopefully she knows he doesn't really mean it??
Well, mostly.But Mio's words conjure up an image in his mind-- one of Sakura, in a traditionally frilly princess dress, carefully sewing together a pink teddy bear by hand, a tender, fond smile on her face as she thinks of--
Thinks of--
NO. No no no no no NO. They were just FRIENDS, for goodness sake! And yet, his heart lurched at the thought of it...
It takes him a bit to reply, enough so that it seemed... sort of suspect? But it was hard to type when his face felt like it was on fire, okay--]
You've been watching too many of those Gisney movies. I'm sure actual royalty wouldn't act like that. And what makes you think she was cute? You don't even know what she looks like. [Except-- she's hella cute. THE CUTEST. But Xiaolang won't admit it, and he's not about clue Mio in to who she was
except she can just scroll down the post and see XIAOLANG YOU STUPID KID]Besides, what I mean is
I wasn't good at asking her for things. [TAKE THAT AS YOU WILL, MIO, because he's still not good on admitting he tried to assault her to other people.]
no subject
[ Don't worry, she knows. She loves you Xiaolong, she knows. Don't worry about it.
It's definitely fine. ]
You shouldn't assume what actual royalty acts like! But are you saying she's not cute? That's sad. I can't believe you just implied that she's ugly. Shame on you.
But if you're not good, that means you just have to get better, right?
no subject
It's not ME who has to get better, though, it's-- the one in my memories. And I don't remember enough to tell if I manage to do that or not.
no subject
[ Look at how kind Mio is. ]
Honestly, I think you still have some room for improvement yourself, Xiaolang. And I'm not saying this to be rude, you know. Everyone has room for improvement.
But honestly you shouldn't worry too much. You don't know everything, right? Maybe the you from your memories will learn for his mistakes and you'll remember that at some point. But even if he doesn't, at least you know now. I don't think anybody would judge you based on failures you didn't remember until now.
