[ Guess what, train. If you happen to look at the ICPs, you're greeted by not one, but two cute kid faces. Both of which are smiling. ]

Um.. hi, everyone! [ Okay, maybe smiling slightly shyly, in Madoka's case. It's a lot to realise the whole train can hear you talk.. ]

I know some things have.. um.. maybe been a bit rough lately. But that's why we wanted to do something fun that anyone could join in on! Near the end of the month, on the 27th, we're planning on holding a fun art day! You don't have to bring anything, since we already took care of everything..

[Romeo's grin is a lot more confident though he thinks Madoka is doing great talking to everyone like this!] Yeah we bought lotsa art stuff already, we got paper and pens and paint and glitter and even paint with glitter in it already!!!

[Isn't that the most exciting thing?]

We can do whatever type of art you like, painting, drawing, even paper folding because that's fun too. Everyone is welcome! [Big grin before he remembers something.] Oh yes! It will be in the garden carriage!

[ Madoka nods once Romeo is done talking. ]

Y-Y-Yes, it's going to be a lot of fun, so please make sure to be there that day if you'd like to join in! And, um, I guess if someone still has questions, they can ask us now..

(ooc: expect responses from both madoka and romeo!)

Hello mister Zagreus! [They haven't met but Romeo glances at Madoka. Decorations? They could make decorations!]

A party sounds really fun! What sort of decorations do you want?

[dyingpro]

Well I've never really been to a party before. Or organized one. Or been to a party I've organized. What sorts of things do you normally have at parties?

[happyends]

Oh, definitely balloons!

[ Apparently that's the first thing that comes to Madoka's mind, as she nods. Balloons are fun for everyone, right? Even.. slightly odd but seemingly nice people like Zagreus over here. ]

And probably streamers? Especially if they're fun, colourful ones!

[myblueskies]

Yes balloons are nice and streamers and um.... Maybe we could make cards or things to put on a table or hang things from the ceiling!

[dyingpro]

Balloons, huh... I'll have to see about asking the Train for those, I still have a few points left. I think I can make some streamers if you let me have some long strips of paper and some paint, maybe gold if you have it, but I understand if that's too much to ask. Do you think you could help me make invitations too? I want to make sure everyone's included, and every party needs invitations.

You said something earlier about paper folding? What, like, crisp edges or something?

[happyends]

[ Oh gosh, this man has so many ideas for his party! It's almost kind of dizzying to Madoka as she tries to keep up with everything he's mentioning, wondering what to even answer first.. ]

Um, no, I mean.. you can fold paper into all sorts of fun shapes.. [ Is that a good point to start with all of that? ]

[myblueskies]

[Oh wow there's so many ideas! But Romeo has his notebook on him so he pulls it out and starts writing.

The man is going a little fast for his writing ability but it's alright! He will let Madoka explain about origami whilst he writes, streamers, gold paint, invitations...]

[dyingpro]

Oh, what? I've never heard of that before! What sorts of shapes?

[Zagreus suddenly seems Very Interested in origami. Teach him your ways, oh wise children!]

[happyends]

[ Thankfully this should buy Romeo some time to write things down, Madoka figures..! ]

All kinds, really! Um, I guess the more traditional shapes are frogs or cranes.. but if you're really good at it, you could probably make any shape you could think of, sir! But it can take quite some practice.

[myblueskies]

[It did indeed buy him some time to finish his list as Madoka explained about the different kinds of origami. It seemed lots of people hadn't heard of it before so they would have to make sure there was space at the party for everyone to try it!]

[dyingpro]

Well, maybe while I'm helping you make the invitations and the streamers, and blowing up the balloons if the shop has any, I can learn from you how to make some different shapes? How's that sound? I'll bring some of the extra snacks to compensate you for your hard work, too!

[Because bribing children with sweets seems like a very smart move.]

[happyends]

[ Did someone say bribing children with sweets.

Because that may just be very effective here. Madoka's eyes grow big - she didn't expect him to offer anything at all in return! She thought they were just going to help him because it's the nice thing to do.. ]

R-Really, sir? You don't have to bring us anything if it's too much trouble..!

[myblueskies]

We can do all that! [His eyes have gone wide too but he nods at Madoka's words.]

Yeah you don't got to! We will help you anyways!
