[ "How is Tsumugi doing it" is an incredibly valid question. At least he's upright and still getting sleep, for the most part? He just might not have much of a life outside of Moondrop and Kaika. ... which, okay, being entirely pre-occupied with theater isn't new, but the point still stands. ]
There's someone from Don't Stop Be-Leafing that's agreed to stay, and I hired someone I know to help manage finances, but otherwise, um... I could use some more help, honestly.
[ ahaha... ha... ha............................ ]
But I mean it when I say I'd be happy to teach you.
I could help. [He suggests it so easily and it should come as no surprise to Tsumugi.] I can help out in the cafe while you teach me? Then eventually I can lend a hand in the garden and flower section.
[ It really shouldn't be a surprise, all things considered. But it's said so easily that he finds himself just blinking for a moment, taking in his offer. ]
Are you sure? I mean, I'd gladly accept your help, but I wouldn't want you to just for my sake... [ tsumugi you FOOL ]
[Tsumugi, you literally just said teaching Ichiro about flower language and arrangements would be a nice surprise for his boyfriend. This is definitely not a one-sided deal.]
I'm definitely more inclined 'cause it's you, but I have been looking for a job... [He scratches the back of his neck.] I don't have a resume so you'll just have to take my word for it, but I have experience helping around shops and I know my way around a kitchen.
[He may not know how to make specific cafe treats but he can certainly learn.]
Oh, no! I'm not worried about your experience! I just wanted to make sure you really wanted to work here. [ And in his defense, Ichiro's talked about repaying him for his kindness in the past. He could've very well viewed working for him in the same light. ] But if you're serious, then I'd be more than happy to hire you.
[ That's an exaggeration, surely, but it still brings Tsumugi joy. Everyone's been so kind and willing to help him with Moondrop... he's so, so grateful.
He offers a hand to shake. ] Then I'm looking forward to working with you, Ichiro-kun.

[Moondrop is so new and with it offering three whole services. He doesn't know how Tsumugi's doing it.]
Have you taken on any employees yet?
