[Rapunzel seemed a bit nervous, even going as far as to plaite a small potion of her hair. She figured she wanted to ask about this, but deep down she felt like this was also going to come across as rude or something.]

Um...this might seem a bit unusual but... [She paused a little bit longer.] We got the lab nearly two weeks ago and so the things were moved from the Quiet Carriage right? Do you think it would be okay if... we change that area so we can have the art supplies there?

I mean... we don't have anywhere currently and I think it would be a nice gesture at least. But it might also not be great depending.

[She soon sighed a little bit.]

Maybe it's not a good idea... But I just want people to be able to enjoy doing art. That's all.

Audio!

[mustknow]

I think you should just do it. First come is first served, after all, move in your art supplies before someone else takes over the space.

Re: Audio!

[adropofsunlight]

It wouldn't just be mine. It would be for all art supplies. I will though put mine in there for others to use.

[She has like one exception, but that was it.]

I just want a place for people to be able to meet and talk art and crate stuff together.

[mustknow]

I'm afraid I don't have much to offer to add to it beyond a pencil, but I feel you likely have plenty of those already. Still, there's much to be said about art, be it making some, watching others do it, or looking at the finished products. Take the space. Others will be happy to make use of it, I'm certain!

[adropofsunlight]

Yeah and I mean there is already art in it, so it works out in that factor too.

It will be the most beutiful place in the whole train unless we pain the train itself.

[She was joking at that last point at least.]

[blitzcheer]

S'already pretty arty in there. [ With the mural and all. ] Go for it! You and the kids deserve a space. 'Til we can finally get that art car for real.

[ One year. ]

[adropofsunlight]

It is. The mural is very beautiful. I want to know who did it.

[And now she thought about it, it had been a very long time since she been tryi ng to vote for the art carriage. She knows she has been here for well over 6 months at this point...]

I think it will be a long while before that happens. If I remember what was left for voting, it might be the last thing people would think of.

[blitzcheer]

I dunno; I think the art car'll get the votes before clocks. [ Siiiigh. ] Not like I wanted them on there, you know...

[ Mumble mumble grumble. ]

Anyway, you're looking for Eight! She's a fun lil' artist. You two should get together and have some fun. She knows her way around ink!

[adropofsunlight]

I think on what it depends by clocks. Like will we finally get more of a concept of time, or is it just a carriage full of clocks with times from various worlds, which would be interesting honestly.

[She at least saw what it could be in an interesting way, right?]

I will make sure to find her when I can. It sounds like she is extremely good after all.

[happyends]

Oh, if people say it's okay, I can help move the stuff there!

[ Not that there's a Huge Amount of it, but still. It's not like Madoka can ignore this sort of thing without even offering to help just a little bit. ]

Though it's still going to be a little cramped there.. But it should be okay as long as not too many of us are using it at the same time, right?

[adropofsunlight]

It seems like people are fine with it, so I would apprciate the help.

[May not be a hige amount, but they can still enjoy bonding time over art.]

That should be fine. I don't think we would get too many in there at once but if we do we can think of ways to set up times for people or something.

[happyends]

[ She nods. ] Yeah, if it turns out to be a problem, we can do that for sure! Let's see how it works out first..

[ Especially since they've never had a non-temporary spot before where they can do their artsy stuff! It's exciting! ]

Should I come over now to help move stuff around? We can first check to make sure they didn't leave anything behind in the quiet rooms!

[adropofsunlight]

I think it's best to first check out what might have been left if anything, then we can move things and see where it can go.

[Because she has no way of knowing if anything is left there or not without checking and she didn't want anything bad to happen if there still was.]

[averyusefultray]

I think it would be good for people. Give everyone a way to work through their feelings.

[adropofsunlight]

Art is good for that, being able to express yourself through painting or whatever form of art one wants to do.

[averyusefultray]

One of my kids is an artist. She has the most to say with paint.

I tried a little in the garden last month.

[adropofsunlight]

Painting seems to be the most common way people express themselves. I know that for me that's the case as well. Perhaps because it can be the eaisesy way for most people.

And how did that go?

[jingyeets]

Why wouldn't it be okay?

( he's like. if it was FOR SCIENCE before what about it isn't useful for people trying to work on the arts? )

Not like people were using it for quiet things before, isn't this almost a step up?

[adropofsunlight]

I don't know, that's why I figured I would ask first.

[Mostly out of being polite.]

I mean doing art is a quiet and relaxing thing, so I gues it is also serving it's purpose.

[jingyeets]

Yeah, usually it's not when people are shouting. Could put up a placard announcing it at the door and everything.

[adropofsunlight]

Could one even put up such a thing and wouldn't it be obvious as to what the room is for?

[labcatte]

Art's usually quieter than science, I say as a scientist. I say go for it.

Re: audio

[adropofsunlight]

Is science really that loud?

[salutosinedelectat]

If I'm not mistaken, an 'art' carriage has been in the last few polls, has it not?

Though I suppose that does not solve the problem in the present. Hm.

[ He pauses a bit to think. With privacy being as much of an issue as it is, he's leaning toward keeping the quiet cars as free as they can be. However... ]

How much are you looking to hold in storage, exactly?

[adropofsunlight]

It's been there since I arrived over six months ago. So it's been a while, but not exactly sure how long exactly.

[She has pretty much given up on it being a thing for a while yet.]

As for how much I don't have a whole lot, but it depends on others too really.

[salutosinedelectat]

[ He does believe he voted for it a couple of times, but at points other carriages seemed more alluring. Although at least one of them wasn't exactly what he expected - a disappointment, really -, but that gives him an idea...]

Well... If you don't want to keep it in the luggage car, you could always maybe take one of the sections of the library.

[ It pains him to imagine a possible mess left by mishandled brushes and paint, but the truth is that that room is still plenty empty. He's made himself a spot for people to write and submit it to be kept in the library, but he's also moved his own books to his room. And not that many people consistently use the top floor, besides him and a handful of other passengers.]

The shelves might come in handy. Providing everything stays, er, tidy.
