>"Well, she's not exactly big on material value, so you should look for something that she would find pleasing in some other manner. Has she ever worn any sort of jewelry or anything like that? Because if so, you can use that as a reference."

>"Yeah, I know," says Tenshi. "And I don't think she has. So I was trying to find something interesting, you know?"

> "Of course, if I just handed that tav over to you and sent you on your way, there's then the issue of whether or not you'd really want to give something that's really mostly coming from me. So then there's the next important question - how much 'from you' do you want this to be? Is it really okay if I pay for it, or do you think it would be better if it came as a result of your hard work?"
