(I think I mentioned before he makes little figurines for the kids in his village but I don’t think he’s necessarily good lol)
“True.” He nodded. “It’s… good to see the options. Helps with ideas.”

Sven dipped his head. "We can go over dimensions and technique after we figure out a design."

Tadaaki nodded, glancing at the example boxes again. “And… are these for sale?” It’d be simplest to just get one ready; then he wouldn’t have to decide.

Tadaaki looked over the nature scene that Ky had gravitated to initially. “It’s so beautiful.”

Sven smiled slightly. "I'm very proud of that one; thank you."

“You should be.” Tadaaki nodded, still admiring it.
Aashi linked her arm through his, also admiring the box. “This one?”
Tadaaki hesitated, glancing at Sven. “Maybe?”

“Crazy sale going on. You pick out anything you want and it’s free.” She should have enough for both boxes… probably. And if not Sara had offered to pay. Best not let Tadaaki even know the general ballpark of costs.
He sighed.

Sven blinked at her, then dipped his head. "I, er, have a vast surplus of heartboxes. I like making them so I tend to have overflow. It's gotten to be too much. That goes for custom, too."

Tadaaki sighed again and shook his head, glancing at Ky. “…Fine… thank you.”
She dipped her head.
Tadaaki glanced back at Sven. “And thank you. I think this box would be wonderful for the baby… and you can do something with frogs for the crazy girl?”
Tasia croaked eagerly.

Sven chuckled. "Certainly. Tell me what sort of design you're thinking of, miss. I'll sketch it out." He headed to the back to get paper and pencil, then returned.

He sat down, doing a quick sketch of a semi-realistic frog leaping from a stone with its tongue stretched out to grab a winged speck.
