For Mayfield

1) [Italy has discovered sidewalk chalk! So he's spent the whole afternoon drawing pictures on the driveway. Everything from cute animals to food to people he knows are depicted there.]

Ah, drawing is so much fun~

[But now he's out of room. He looks at the nice clean empty driveway next door. Maybe your driveway.]

I wonder if they would let me draw

[Blaze is a grumpy young woman, this is fairly obvious from the fact that she is usually seen with a faint frown. And yet she has a fondness for children. So when she walks out and sees the boy looking at her driveway, her face softens and it's a slight smile instead.]

Run out of room huh? Come on then, you can draw here

Really?

[He looks so very happy as he picks up the chalk and scurries over.]

Oh, thank you, Miss. Do you like to draw too?

[She sits in the grass to watch]

Sometimes. I usually don't have time though

[He starts on the top corner of the driveway, drawing what appears to be a family of rabbits having a lovely spaghetti dinner.]

When Grandpa was still around, we used to draw and paint together all the time. I really miss those days.

[She really can't help her smile. Things like that are why she likes children, even if she's much less fond of most people her own age or older.]

I could draw with you sometimes. I'm not very good though.

That's okay. As long as you enjoy doing it, your drawings will be very pretty. And I can help you fix the parts you don't like.

Okay, that sounds good

[She joins him on the driveway. Picking up a piece of the chalk she begins drawing with him.]

This is so much fun! It's been so long since I could just sit and draw like this.

[She laughs softly]

It is a lot of fun

My drawings have improved a lot too.

[He smiles kind of wistfully.]

But back then Grandpa used to say my drawings were perfect. I wonder if he would like the way I draw now...

Re: 1

[aqua_blaze]

I bet he would. I bet he'd be proud you improved so much

Re: 1

Someday I want to create great art, just like Grandpa did. The kind that people will remember forever!

Re: 1

[aqua_blaze]

I bet you'll be able to!

Re: 1

I hope so.

[He just gives her the sweetest smile. He really does hope that somewhere Grandpa is proud of him.]
