The anime exhibition is next month, are you going as the King of the Pirates from One Piece again? Your loyalties haven't changed I take it?
当然,本都印好了,不过马克杯和别针要到下个礼拜才会好。

Of course they haven't. I printed the books already, but the mugs and the badges won't be ready until next week.
做了很多吗?
zuò le hěn duō ma ?
You made a lot, huh?
对呀,我本来只要做两百个别针,老板说太少,不做,后来我就加到五百个。

Yes. Originally I only wanted to have 200 badges made, but the man at the store said that wasn't enough so he wouldn't make them for me, so I upped the number to 500.
