Subaki: Excellent. I'm looking perfect, as per usual.
Hinata: Hello, Subaki. You seem awfully pleased with yourself today.
Subaki: Well, well! Greetings, Hinata! Yes, I certainly am. Even by my own impeccable standards, I'm looking remarkably handsome. It's hard to turn from my own reflection. I think I'm in love.
Hinata: Huh?! How can you be in love with yourself? You're the most vain person that I've ever met. How can you be so narcissistic?
Subaki: It's simple. Appearances are important. Perfecting one's outward image projects confidence and inner beauty. And people will always prefer someone clean and neat over a nasty slob.
Hinata: I suppose that's true.
Subaki: Do you ever put any effort into your appearance, Hinata?
Hinata: It isn't my first priority. I just try to make sure that I'm not stinky.
Subaki: That simply won't do! Are you trying to cast shame on Lord Takumi? Besides, don't you want women to be interested in you? You won't be turning any heads without a carefully planned grooming technique.
Hinata: R-really? Are you serious?
Subaki: Of course I am. What do you think people's opinions are on your look? Let me spell it out for you. "Oh hey, it's Hinata! He smells like he slept in a barn!" "Ew, nice bed head! Ugh, do you ever change that filthy shirt of yours?" Getting the picture yet?
Hinata: Was that supposed to be some kind of stupid miniplay? You're a terrible actor. No one in town would say that about me. What's your problem?
Subaki: I'm just trying to help. Perhaps you're just too simple to understand.
Hinata: Geez, why are you being so rude? Listen, I admit that some of what you said makes sense. I don't want anyone to think I'm gross.
Subaki: A clean exterior goes a long way toward winning over other people. Being clean is more important than being cool.
Hinata: Maybe you're right... OK, Subaki. Teach me how to make myself handsome, like you!
Subaki: So you're interested now, eh? That didn't take long. Very well! I will be sure to painstakingly teach you my techniques.
Hinata: Thanks!

Subaki: You need to set up a morning grooming routine to look as stellar as I do. Are you ready to begin?
Hinata: Of course!
Subaki: First things first, you have to take a bath right after waking up. Then comb your hair very carefully. You should also use camellia oil. It gives your hair a handsome sheen that's bound to draw compliments.
Hinata: Camellia oil? That seems pretty fancy.
Subaki: You want to look good, don't you? Listen, that's just the beginning. Next comes clothing. It's important to only wear freshly laundered garments. Oh, and they can't have any wrinkles.
Hinata: None at all? How is that even possible? Clothing naturally wrinkles.
Subaki: It's simple. You just have to steam and flatten everything. Afterward, let them dry. Be careful about folding each item. You see, creases can become wrinkles.
Hinata: O-OK...
Subaki: Why so quiet, Hinata? I thought you were excited to learn.
Hinata: I just realized that this is impossible.
Subaki: Huh? What do you mean?
Hinata: Just what I said! This is IMPOSSIBLE! Do you really think I can be that meticulous?
Subaki: Of course not.
Hinata: What? Then why are you even trying to teach me? Listen, thanks anyway, Subaki. But I think these lessons are probably pointless.
Subaki: Don't be so dramatic. I like helping out with these kind of things. There is a perfect teacher right in front of you. Don't just give up and run away.
Hinata: It doesn't matter if you're a great teacher. Like I said, it's impossible.
Subaki: You're not even giving this a chance! Just stick with me. This won't seem so difficult once you've got a routine down.
Hinata: Wait! Where are you dragging me now?
Subaki: We're starting with step one. You need to take a bath. Come on!
Hinata: Whaaaaaaaat?! No, I don't want to!

Subaki: Ah, there you are, Hinata!
Hinata: Ugh, Subaki. I can't stand to talk about my appearance anymore.
Subaki: I had a feeling you might say that. I guess you just don't have the willpower.
Hinata: You're right. I really don't...
Subaki: Well, I hope you're looking forward to a lifetime of people talking down to you. "Here comes that old stink bomb—Hinata! Geez, has he ever even heard of soap?"
Hinata: Stop it with your imitations! I hate your little miniplays!
Subaki: Listen, it's only a matter of time before people start talking to you that way. Don't give up so easily. Let's try to cover some more basic grooming techniques.
Hinata: Basic stuff, huh?
Subaki: Let's take this one step at a time. I understand that this seems overwhelming. All you have to do is change things slowly. That way, it won't feel as daunting while you get used to the new routine.
Hinata: Hmm. Is that really true?
Subaki: Of course it is. For example, you could start flattening your clothing every few days. That way, you'll have plenty of outfits ready and won't have to do it every morning. Or you could try and bathe every other day. Once you get used to these small changes, it won't bother you at all.
Hinata: Oh, that actually makes a lot of sense. Thanks for trying to help me, Subaki.
Subaki: It's my pleasure. Helping you isn't a total waste of my time.
Hinata: You really have the worst personality.
Subaki: Hahaha. I cover that with my perfectly charming exterior.
Hinata: Ah, I feel like I finally understand you.
Subaki: Hinata, that was meant to be a joke. Never mind. Let's head into town.
Hinata: Town? But why?
Subaki: We need to pick up some essential items to help maintain your looks. A mirror, camellia oil, a comb... I wrote a whole list. It's fairly extensive.
Hinata: I changed my mind. This is going to be way too much work.
Subaki: Well, look forward to being teased all the time then. "There he is—that old bed head!" "He always looks like he just crawled out of a trash heap!"
Hinata: All right, fine! Just stop. We can go get all the stuff on your list. But only so that I can make myself look amazing one day to show you up.
Subaki: Hahaha, that'll be the day.
