If they hadn't wanted to have differently named pieces for male and female, they could have just had it give a single set of pre-dyed gear, or even just the crate and the appropriate dye set for it.

The purposes behind Rodrigault and Bert's suggestions were sound. Figuring out what you're looking for in the relationship and picking up a new hobby instead of being "work only" would both be good steps to bettering your chances at finding something. Astrid's suggestion was just problematic, with looking among your workplace or clients. Then again, maybe we could have tried hooking him up with the elezen from the HW dragoon quests, I forget her name.

None of the suggestions on their own were very good. Maybe the whole point of this year's event to set up next year with "they need to work together."
