Second Ink Drop

[chiisaichou]

[Anyone actually outside in the brutal snowstorm may see a little ball of yellow light hopping quickly to get to a warm, dry location. Miya's carrying a small cloth sack on her back and, thankfully she's dressed snugly. The tiny painter leaps her way through the heavy snowfall, seeming mostly unbothered by it

[seems that a certain someone is below the awning, enjoying the snowfall

ohho, is that something shining up thur?]

[Action]

[chiisaichou]

[Miya squeaks when she notices the much larger person, almost spilling an ink pot only her journal when she jumps a bit. She hadn't noticed anyone else stray under the awning after her, too focused on her calligraphy.]

H-Hello...

[Action]

[fighting_fool]

What're you? You look a bit like a butterfly!

[Action]

[chiisaichou]

[She hops a little. At least he didn't call her small! She smiles actually, giggling softly. A butterfly? Oh, the cap...Though with her winter garb, she looks more like a snow bunny.]

I-I'm a Poncle! Or, well..Ponclet, since I'm a girl. My name is Miyabi, who are you?

[mutsukabezaka]

Hmm... a traditionalist style with an almost childish approach.

[chiisaichou]

[Miya blinks, looking around herself for the source of the voice.]

I-It is not childish! I-I'm trying my best...! I-I know I'm not that good, but--Th-This is just kanji! I can write my kanji pretty well! [But now she's not so sure. It wasn't childish, was it? She's going to tug easily at one of the cloth "ears" of her winter hood. Such a bad habit.]

I'm trying my best...

[Ooc: |D; Sorry, but is this Voice, Written, or Action? I'm unsure how to have her reply, so I just need need to be sure to not mess up epically. :|b]

[mutsukabezaka]

[[ Normally, unless I specify otherwise, it defaults to writing/text. We'll go with voice, though.]]

I never said being childish was a bad thing. In fact, there's a certain whimsy to that style.

-A few drawings of his own start to appear, a sort of juvenile look to his own art.-

[chiisaichou]

[Ooc: Okay, thanks. ♥]

Oh, I'm sorry! I-I shouldn't have assumed, I--[Hey, art. She watches as the pictures scribble themselves onto her pages and beams down at the journal.] Those are really good! You have a very creative style, Mister~

[Miya removes a smaller brush from her cloth sack and dips it into one ink pot. She draws a few long, elegant strokes, then jumps back as a drop of water falls onto it, making the ink slightly blurred. The image was still determinable, that of a leaping horse, but the ink was beginning to run near its hind leg.]

Oh, darn it... That one came out pretty good, too.

[voice]

[blue_velocity]

[After listening to her write and recite kanji...]

Hey, Miya, those are pretty cool!

[voice]

[chiisaichou]

[She squeaks, startled from the sudden voice, and a thick, heavy blot of ink drips from her brush onto the page. Oops!]

Oh, Sonic! You startled me. [She giggles and holds the journal in her lap. Sonic might get a better view of her now that it's shrunk down to her size. She smiles and pushes her hood off, fluffing out her short hair.]

Those are what we use to write with back home! Are you inside, Sonic? It's snowing so hard outside. I could really use some tea to warm up.

[voice]

[blue_velocity]

[And he does see her through the journal's camera!]

Aw, sorry 'bout that! I didn't mean to! I didn't make you mess up your drawings, did I?

[He nodded at her question.] For now, yeah! And I just so happen to have some tea! If you want, I can bring you some. But why're you outside, shouldn't you be somewhere warmer?

[voice]

[chiisaichou]

[Miya laughs merrily,] No, no. It's okay. I'm not really painting, actually. Just a bit of practice on my kanji, I guess. Something to pass the time. If I tried to paint here, it'd get all wet and soggy!

Oh, that's good, but you don't have to. I'm close to the market. I was doing some shopping for clothes and inks when it suddenly started to snow really hard. I come from a place with heavy snowfall, though, so it's not so bad. Especially now that I've got some thicker robes. [She holds up the journal so the bitty camera could show off the rabbit-looking hood and long sleeved kimono she wore.] Aren't they cute~? ♥ I sewed most of them, especially the hooded cloak.

I'll be okay, Sonic! If it gets really cold or something, I'll just go into one of the shops for the night.
