[ An eyebrow lifts in amusement but he reaches for a ring sizer. ]

I didn't think you the type to wear one.

[ He takes Hijikata's hand and quickly makes a note of the size on a small notepad, commenting as he writes: ]

You can simply pour the potion over the beast. 'Twould be quite inconvenient if it had to be ingested. [ And here his smirk broadens. ] So do be careful not to get it on yourself. I wouldn't want a customer of mine to become a kraken's meal.

[Hijikata offers a small wry grin in return.]

Noted. Yeah, that'd be an inglorious way to go out. As for the stone, I just thought a ring would be more secure than a strap necklace or whatnot, and it's such a small rock... but if you can make it into something else that's just as well. Hell, I guess I could probably simply keep it in my pocket as long as it can't fall out.

[Emet-Selch was spot-on about Hijikata not really liking jewelry. The only decorative attire he enjoys wearing are cloths around his neck - his usual cravat, but also neckerchiefs or scarves, depending on the season.]

[ He taps his pen against the notepad, brow furrowed in thought. His eyes roam the other man from head to toe. If not a ring, then...what? Hmm... ]

I will think about it as I cut your stone. In the meantime, you have a kraken to take care of, do you not? By the time you finish dealing with it and return I'm sure I will have thought of something suitable for you.

Right, I shouldn't leave my quest partner waiting! There really is no rush with the stone, but I'll pop in again later, just in case.

[Unless he somehow screws up and does end up shrunk and eaten... but he'll do his damndest to avoid that! He pockets his potion and antidote.]

Until then!

[He gives the ghosts a polite nod as he passes them on the way out, but they seem engrossed in their conversation. He feels pretty accomplished right now, even if the actual quest isn't completed yet. It seriously is so cool to have the right connections for messy situations like this!]
