Horseshoe, Day 21, Early Morning

[consider8]

[Eight switches on her screen, looking a little dour.]

Hello. I'm in need of a significant amount of paper and bottles. I have a project in mind that requires both.

I saw that there is a printer available, would it be possible for me to use some of it?

I would make the purchase myself, but I used it all for clothing.

Any help would be appreciated.

[Have a brunette wizard, Eight. One who looks like she's overslept.]

... What kind of bottles? I could probably get some.

And yeah, the printer's free for everyone to use.

[consider8]

[After yesterday, she's not going to judge. She's just an "early to bed; early to rise" type.]

Any bottle will do. The only thing it would need would be to be about large enough to fit in a hand and have something on top to seal it.

[unfavorableinstigation]

Probably not the usual plastic bottles, then.

[Nita nods.]

I can do that. Do they need to be transparent, too?

[Because there are sealable travel mugs in the shop, and if those can work just as well...]

[consider8]

Plastic can work and clear would be best. Ideally they should also have openings a little on the wider side to allow fingers to pass through. So soda bottles won't work. I'm trying not to be too particular, but they do need to serve a function.

[unfavorableinstigation]

I can make those modifications to whatever's available, easy.

You want to meet up somewhere so I can hand them off once I get them?

[consider8]

Veemo! [She cheers happily.]

Yes. Do you know the really big quiet room? We can meet there.

Next tag will probably have to wait until tomorrow/mod response on shop post... ^^;

[unfavorableinstigation]

I think so, yeah.

[And then she remembers that that was Tony's room...

Perhaps it's best not to mention.]

I'll be there in five minutes, tops.

You can pretty much guarantee someone'll have the points for it, if it's for something that sounds good. What's it for?

[consider8]

I have no problem telling you what, but I prefer it not be mentioned on the ICP until it is ready.

We can meet in the quiet room?

video -> action

[enthunder]

... Sure, I'll see you there.

[ Click! And five minutes later, she's stood at one entrance to the quiet coach, leaning against the wall. ]

[consider8]

[She lingers a while, answering questions and addressing some of the people as she can. She does take care not to keep Lightning waiting too long and gives the intimidating-looking woman a polite wave.]

Hello. I'm Eight. Thank you for coming.

[enthunder]

No problem. [ With her arms folded, her wave back is a lift of the hand on top and a jerk of her chin, but at least a slight smile softens her face. ]

Eight, huh? Nice to meet you. I'm Lightning.

[ The nearest quiet room is still free, so she nods towards it. ]

[consider8]

[Eight nods, wanting to make this as quick as she could. She enters the room and waits for Lightning to enter before closing the door.]

Okay. So, after yesterday it is apparent to me that quite a few of us miss where we were pulled from.

And many of us want to share, but don't feel comfortable or might be scared to say.

So... [She unfurled a slip of paper and planted it on the far wall of the quiet rooms. In hastily scribbled letters which were probably made before coming over: "Where Is Home? Draw It!"]

[blitzcheer]

What kinda paper you need? There's big sketchbooks in the standard coach. You can take the pages outta those.

[consider8]

[She looks delighted to see Tidus.]

Is that so~? I saw them, but I didn't want to take anything without asking.

[blitzcheer]

No problem! We got them for everyone - you can add one back later if you want. I mean, if you're gonna be using a few.

Guess it depends on the project?

[ He iiis curious... ]

[consider8]

I will probably be using a lot...

[And she doesn't want to be seen as greedy...]

[blitzcheer]

[ Hmm. ] You want the big paper or the smaller paper?

[consider8]

How big is the big paper?

[adropofsunlight]

I see people mentioned where the paper would be, though what projects are they for? Is it an art project?

[consider8]

Yes. [She feels that is safe to say.]

I want to make something that I hope people will like. Or, maybe make something that I hope people will use...?

But everyone seem so tense. I just want to help how I can.

[adropofsunlight]

Maybe do some art with it and stick them around the train, maybe?

I know I want to do some painting to cheer people up when they need it.

[consider8]

[She smiles and nods.]

I would, but I'm afraid I'm not the best artist.

That still doesn't mean I can't do something, though.

[adropofsunlight]

Exactly. Even if you aren't good you can. I'm always happy to help and see what you can do when it comes to art at least.

[consider8]

[Ohh...]

Can you paint?
