[Ah, Valentine's Day. The one experiment a year Richard hates most, for a variety of reasons. Granted, this year wasn't TOO terrible, as he was spared the unfortunate fate of falling in love with anyone under the effects of the experiment... but that didn't stop other people from from falling in love/lust with HIM, much to his dismay. And that's left him with many things to think about, as have some of the reactions to the experiment that he's seen from other people. Which leads him to ponder...]
Indulge my curiosity: what sorts of things are considered traditionally "masculine" where you come from?
[A bit later on, Richard will head out of the house on a shopping trip to All Passions and the item store, where he can be found looking for a new wardrobe and a few other things, probably as a result of some of the answers he received to his question. After picking out a bunch of things to take home with him, he chooses something new to wear home as well: cargo pants, combat boots, and a leather motorcycle jacket, because all of those things are super-masculine, right? Alas, on someone with the approximate build of a toothpick and delicate features like Richard has, the end result is a bit ridiculous, but don't tell him that. (Or do, your choice.) He can't quite bring himself to cut his hair - he's still far too proud of it - so instead he opts to pull it back into a ponytail.
There. Much better, in his eyes. Now the question is, what will his friends and housemates think of this?]

That's not quite the Sophie I had in mind, but I have met that Sophie as well. We helped her build a pillow fort just the other day during the experiment. She is a lovely little girl.
[Action]
Isn't she? And she's so smart, too!

[Because you sound like a proud aunt or godmother or something right about now, Grune. IT'S KIND OF ADORABLE.]
[Action]
We're all looking after her while they're away.
[Action]
I'm sure they would be proud to know that you're taking such good care of her.

Thank you! We all work very hard so she can be happy and grow up nice and strong.
