Wow, this brings back some memories! (￣0￣) It's obviously well-used, and on top of that, it's a bag with a story, which makes things difficult (￣。￣;) I'm ashamed to admit it, but it was a quarter of a century ago. The "fujoshi" (I'll call her that, even though I don't have to!) I was dating at the time requested a Samantha Thavasa bag for her birthday (the fujoshi vibes were already strong from the start...) (￣△￣) And then, on that day, as I hesitantly offered her the wrapped gift, she snatched it away. Not only did she open it right there (in a rather pretentious cafe-bar), but she also proceeded to transfer all the contents of her own bag into the Samantha Thavasa! (￣0￣) And to top it off, she handed me her empty bag and said, "Here, you can have this. Do whatever you want with it!" That's when my eccentric personality (the epitome of a weirdo) reared its head (-_-#) A normal man would have just laughed it off, but in that situation, I suddenly stood up, and with my patience completely gone, I tucked the bag she'd thrown at me under my arm and quickly left the scene... Well, if I'd slammed a wad of cash on the table, it would have been somewhat cool, but I just ran away, so there was no way it would be cool. The fact that I'm speaking in Kansai dialect now is probably why I'm such a weirdo, haha^_^; [Aside] That bag is the very same Gaultier clasp bag that's up for sale this time! (｀´） To be honest, since it was Gaultier, I didn't hesitate to be so brazen as to take it home... I was already a "Vivienne-ist" and sometimes a "Gaultier-er" back then, so I didn't care about looking cool (or rather, I didn't even think about it!) (*≧Δ≦) In short, it was just a "cute thing" that was convenient to carry around, but the main thing was that I could break up with the typical fujoshi and get a Gaultier bag, that's what it was all about^_^; However, I can't possibly carry it around, and it annoys me to be reminded of that fujoshi, so please, someone take it off my hands m(_ _)m
