The Ware Wolf Shop has a two item limit per month, even if you have enough Chroma for more. How does anyone decide what to buy?

I know I want one orb to get one of my books that Caster asked for, and I know I want to have another orb for some of my coworkers' works... But how am I meant to choose just one? Even if I can get more later, I find it hard to say whether Kyouka's works are a higher priority than Dazai's or Chuuya's or Yosano's or Kunikida's or - well, I could go on. And that's just limiting myself to buying the orbs and limiting what I could summon to books.

I could use advice? Or opinions about Japanese literature, if you have those.

Ah, so it is a want then! There's nothing wrong with that, so I take it you're more interested in the dimensional orbs the, items that enable you to retrieve things from your world specifically.

That's my item of choice personally, it's so difficult to get a bottle of Sun Blonde Vint-1 anywhere but from home.

I suppose it is. ...even if getting something for Caster certainly feels more like a need.

[He has such a writer crush already, it's awful.]

What is that? I'm afraid I've never heard of it. Hair dye, it sounds like?

Caster? Sounds like someone with an aptitude for magic. Ah, but it feels like a need when you're getting these materials for someone else, you say? Should say something about the situation.

[It's not lost on Dorian that there's something going on here that takes the form of a crush.]

A brand of alcohol, actually, incredibly potent.

It's not a strange situation to want to get your friends things.

Are the local drinks not sufficient?

[liberaltus]

Oh, I would never imply that it was strange, it's quite natural to shower the people you like with gifts.

The local drinks are a bit watered down for my tastes if I'm to be honest. They're lacking a certain spark.

Well, then, it's natural. And I'm not sure what other gifts he would like.

[Caster is a mystery wrapped in an enigma wrapped in a homemade mask.]

I see. I'm not much of a drinker, but I hope you find something to suit your tastes.

Book related items, if you find yourself looking for a bit of variety, book clutches and page anchors, books marks or candles that smell like a library or antique books.

Oh, that's why I use the dimensional orbs, to bring me drinks that suit my taste and, fortunately, you don't need much of what I get so it lasts quite some time.

Do they really make book-scented candles? I know you can put incense sticks in them, but I don't know how you'd get the smell of a library.

[Atsushi predates the resurgence of candles and scented candle technology, and it's not like they're very popular in his actual library.]

I don't know how authentic the smell is, but yes, they have candles that smell like books and libraries out there, how they manage to get the scent is a magic that's a bit beyond my understanding...though I suspect if you get the right mixture of fragrances anything is possible.

The technology here really is amazing.

I live in a library at home, so I'll buy one and tell you if the scent is authentic or not.

That would be much appreciated.

Dorian Pavus, by the way. Bit of a late introduction, but there it is.

Nakajima Atsushi. Thank you very much for all of your advice.
