Mmhmm. [ Saya takes his hand as they walk into the house, kisses the back of it. ] Thank you for your hard work. It was incredibly thoughtful. [ Taking care not to change the look of it specifically. ]

[ She leads him to her bedroom, then releases his hand to walk into the closet. She rolls out her dress form. On it is a silk ballgown, done mostly in red and black and gold. The sweeping bottom half is pieced to resemble stained glass but with Chinese-style art and the fabrics have been chosen to make it look like it's glowing from within. The artwork is designed with bulls and fire and wind, with abstract Demon Bull Family sigils if you know where to look. As it reaches the waistline there is carefully placed black and gold lace to imitate curling smoke in a breeze. The fabric shines and shimmers in the light, the colors changing slightly depending on where your eye catches it. The top is more structured, hugging the torso like a corset. The panels are the same colors but sheer in between the seams, with the black and gold lace from the skirt curling through the design so that it is more pretty than risqué. The dress is made to appear strapless but the lace continues up to a high neckline to make sure to cover his neck. There are long, fingerless gloves made of the same lace. ]

[ This clearly took a lot of work, and a lot of thought. ]

You said you haven't had occasion to wear a ballgown in 50 years. I thought it was high time that changed.
