Video; Day 20

So... I forgot to announce this when I got them but... I got my art set~

[She is practically jumping for joy as she steps to the side to reveal her box with the art stuff inside. There aren't a vast majority of paints at best only four, but they were hers and she was happy.]

I am soooooo excited~ to start painting with them, but then I realized I don't have anywhere to paint. back home I painted on the walls of the tower and I didn't have any space left... But I know painting on the walls here might not be such a good idea. But at the same time don't you think the train would look nicer too?

I want to know what you think? [She soon stepped back in front of the box before hurrying to grab a notebook. She had other reasons beyond letting people know she finally had paint.]

Oh! But that wasn't the reason for this whole thing... I mean it was one of the reasons, but not the most I'm important... I mean... it will lead to my next point... [She flips through her notepad, a lot of it basically had either drawings on it or writing. Soon she stopped to pause.]

I started to wonder if perhaps when I get more stuff I will set up art classes. I mean I have a lot of time on my hand and I could use that time for a class that's fun and creative~ A great way to have people draw or paint how they feel. I mean... It might not be a class to learn something useful, but I honestly think sometimes we just need a fun class and just relax.

[She smiled slightly.]

I also wanted to bring up one more thing. Inigo and I once talked about maybe having classes for those who didn't come from a world with technology or slang or just...modern day things. Does that make sense? I am sorry if it doesn't. But in order for that to happen, we'd... kind of need a teacher who actually knows that kind of thing. So if anyone is interested let me know. I just really want to learn without getting annoying and asking what it means every five minutes or something.

[She soon went to put the notepad down before putting her hands in front of herself and bowing politely.]

Thank you for listening.

That makes sense. The other skills I mean.

But you'd be surprised. If it was your hair you might not necessarily be plucked bald.

[laurefindil]

That has the elements of a story to be told, I think. You have had a situation where people have coveted you solely for your hair?

[adropofsunlight]

No. That was more something my mother sold to me. That people wanted to use me for my hair.

[laurefindil]

That...sounds like a story. Was she very controlling?

[adropofsunlight]

So I've been told and I actually do believe the people who told me that's exactly what it sounded like.

[laurefindil]

I am sorry that is something you had to go through. I am very glad you are not still in that situation. Is it something you still face when you return, however?

[adropofsunlight]

It will be something I will have to face when I go home, but I am also sure I will be ab;le to handle it so much better and more confidently.

[laurefindil]

I have the utmost faith in you. Look how well you are handling this situation!

When do you think classes will start? I know some art, but am looking forward to learning more. Plus the idioms. Definitely need to learn idioms.

[adropofsunlight]

It depends on when I can get supplies, which might be a month or so.

[laurefindil]

I will look forward to it then.

Although...if you think any of the plants we grow might be usable for making colours, do let me know. I do have a knack for growing.

[adropofsunlight]

I mean there are some colors that can be made using plants. That's how my paints were made with items or things one could find out in the wild.

I can't list what ones might work though.

[laurefindil]

I am all for experimentation.
