ooh THEN YEAH lay Rise's observational skills on him! Sakichi will probably be a good candidate for that... He's an open book in every way so feel free to have Rise glean as much as you want from him via brackets or otherwise. I'll feed you all the info!!

re: the post office he would tell her without an ounce of embarrassment that his happiest moments in the military were when he received letters in the mail from his loved ones. He thought a profession dedicated to the safe pasage of letters like those would be a noble one.

(and then he ended up delivering bills and junk mail all day)

TY, THIS FRIENDSHIP SOUNDS REALLY CUTE... I'm stupidly excited for it
