Study That Began with Styling - Vocaloid 神威x巡音
💜💗💜💗💜 Story 💗💜💗💜💗 After resting for a while, Luka originally thought their outfit session for the day was coming to an end. However, as she looked at the several latex outfits they had changed out of and left beside the coffee table, another idea suddenly came to mind. “Gakupo.” “Hmm?” “Should we study these outfits?” Gakupo followed her gaze. “Study them?” “Not just try them on.” Luka sat up, her interest returning to her eyes. “I want to see how much the overall impression changes depending on the different cuts and designs.” Gakupo thought about it for a moment before nodding. “That actually sounds interesting.” So, the two of them brought the outfits back into the living room. Luka arranged them according to their different styles. There were one-piece designs as well as separate tops and bottoms; some had long sleeves while others were sleeveless. Some featured simple lines, while others included zippers, waist structures, and various decorative details. “Let's start with the material.” She picked up one of the outfits and carefully examined its surface. Gakupo inspected the inside. “The thickness isn't exactly the same either.” “That's right.” Luka nodded. “And even when they're made from the same material, different surface treatments change the way they reflect light.” She moved the outfit closer to the window. As the angle changed, the sheen on the surface shifted as well. Gakupo watched carefully from the side. “So lighting is also an important factor.” “Exactly.” Luka immediately took out a notebook. “Write that down.” Gakupo looked at her. “You're really taking notes?” “Of course.” She answered seriously. “If we're going to study it, we should take it seriously.” Gakupo smiled. “Then should I be responsible for testing different poses?” “That works.” The two returned to the full-length mirror. Luka first changed into an outfit with a different cut and stood in front of the mirror. Instead of immediately posing, she slowly turned her body from side to side. “The side view looks quite different.” “Because the waistline is designed differently.” Gakupo stepped closer. “From the front, it looks cleaner and more streamlined. From the side, the cut becomes easier to see.” Luka nodded. “Write that down too.” Then it was Gakupo's turn. He put on another design and stood in front of the mirror. Luka carefully examined his appearance. “Your shoulders are broader, so this kind of cut gives your upper body more structure.” “What about this one?” Gakupo changed into another outfit. “This one seems better suited for a natural standing posture.” “Mm-hmm.” Luka picked up her pen. “And it seems easier to move in.” Gakupo raised his arms and stretched. “Definitely.” He slowly rotated his shoulders. “Different designs clearly affect the range of movement.” The two became more and more serious about their research. They began comparing the cuffs, collars, waistlines, and leg cuts. They even discussed the placement of zippers. “If this is positioned too high, it might not be very comfortable when sitting down.” Luka pointed at one of the outfits. Gakupo nodded. “If it's meant for everyday wear, comfort should be considered too.” “Exactly.” Luka smiled. “So appearance isn't the only thing that matters.” “Right.” Luka laughed. “We really do sound like we're conducting clothing research.” “You were the one who suggested it.” “But you're taking it seriously too.” “Because it's interesting.” His simple answer made Luka laugh again. Then she suddenly picked up two different outfits. “What if we combine the design elements from these two?” Gakupo looked at them. “We could try putting them together.” They began comparing different tops and accessories. Sometimes the combinations worked surprisingly well. Other times, they clearly didn't match at all. Whenever they found a combination that didn't work, they shook their heads at the same time. “No.” “Definitely not.” They looked at each other and burst out laughing. Eventually, Luka opened her notebook and wrote down several categories on a fresh page. “Cut, mobility, comfort, and light reflection.” She looked up at Gakupo. “What else?” Gakupo thought for a moment. “Maintenance difficulty.” “Right.” Luka immediately added it. “Latex outfits require special care, so that's an important part too.” The two continued researching cleaning and storage methods. Gakupo made sure each outfit was properly handled and stored, avoiding leaving them folded in the same position for too long. Luka carefully recorded each point in her notebook. By the time they finished, the table was covered with notes and different outfit pieces. Luka looked down at her notes. “We actually spent the whole afternoon studying them.” Gakupo glanced at the clock on the wall. “And it took even longer than the outfit session.” “But it feels really satisfying.” She closed the notebook with a pleased smile. Gakupo nodded. “We can study more combinations next time.” Luka's eyes lit up. “It's a promise.” The two of them began putting everything away, carefully returning each outfit to the wardrobe. Finally, Luka turned around from the closet. “I'm already looking forward to next time.” Gakupo smiled. “Then we'll take our time and keep experimenting.” The living room gradually became quiet again. The small notebook filled with observations about the outfits was carefully placed on the table by Luka. What had started as nothing more than a casual afternoon of playing with outfits had unexpectedly turned into a small clothing study they had completed together.
