Crayons.  I need crayons, STAT.

Or colored pencils or markers or something.

I promise to give them back or pay for them or scrounge new ones eventually if you let me borrow or have them.

Any takers, or rather givers, out there in the Fishbowl?  I'm in need of a little color in my life.

You brave soul.

In return, I promise I won't tell anyone about how you used up all the hot water this morning.

[child_proteus]

Come on, admit it. It's kind of inspired, don't you think?

Good cause that means I won't tell anybody what you're really like in the mornings. Oh wait, too late.

[twoninths]

Doubtless. And probably very much to our advantage. When your inevitable new suitor comes calling, what would you like me to tell him?

Don't think I didn't see that. And to think, I still owe you for that blueberry the other day too. My revenge shall be swift, Throne. Don't think it won't be.

[child_proteus]

Just smile and nod.

piffle.

[felinemystique]

New hobby?

[child_proteus]

You could say that, yeah. What can I say, Argent's awoken the deep-seated artist in me. And day after day of ink can get a bit boring us adventure-type-folks.

[felinemystique]

Oh, yeah. He inspires me all the time.

[child_proteus]

You should try living with him. I've got inspiration coming out of my ears.

[moonlit_mirage]

I regret I have nothing of that nature to offer. However I wish you luck in finding what you seek, Throne-san.

[child_proteus]

Thanks, Crow-san?, I appreciate it. Did you ever end up snagging yourself some sweets?

[moonlit_mirage]

Not yet. But I believe I have a tentatively planned outing with Want-san, Lotus-san and possibly Flight to do so in the near future.

I will keep an eye out look for inquire about crayons or colored pencils and inks while I'm out, however.

[child_proteus]

Ah, nothing better than company, yeah? I'm glad to see that you've found your feet so fast. Could you ask around on your trip to see if anybody round these here parts sell caramels? You see, there's this lady I know, and she can be quite demanding of attention. And how else better to say, "I care!" than a box of sweets.

Thanks, Crow-dude. I appreciate it. Lots. I'll owe you one.

Mun knows she's cheating a log and stuff, but this was too hard for her to resist. :/

[ifonlyamemory]

...Well....I did get to buy a box of crayons in that big city...

...I'll let you borrow them if you want...

...

I don't think we've met either. I'm Memory. It's nice to meet you.

<3

[child_proteus]

That, would be awesome, Memory. Though I'm pretty sure we met once a long way back. Before the ants, you and me and Toushi and Sight, we all went down to the Junkyard, remember? There was a shy pretty girl there, who came along. I could have sworn her name was Memory. Is that you? I'm Throne.

I would love it if I could borrow them. I'll pay you back somehow. How's that sound?

..That picture of him makes her smile. ^^

[ifonlyamemory]

...Oh yes! I remember that. I'm sorry...after getting stuck in that closet on the ark...it just made my mind draw a blank. I remember you now, Throne! ...P-pretty? Me? Oh no...I-I'm not... (^///////^;)

...That would be wonderful, Throne. You don't have to pay me back though. Really--it's just letting a friend use them. Honest.

[The strike seems to be crossed out with a thick single line because she re-read over his writing, and the thing in parenthesis is what appears to be a blushing smiley face that's also crossed out with that line]

[OOC: Nice Throne is nice? <3]

Nice Throne is always nice. <3

[child_proteus]

Oh, no worries, don't you worry about one little thing. With all of the crazy stuff we need to deal with around here -- one little meeting like that is hardly worth worrying over. And the girl I met was definitely pretty. But shy and hiding behind Toushi the whole time, so I didn't get to enjoy just how pretty she is. Maybe we can amend that, yeah?

Oh, Memory, that's really sweet. I will pay you back. I promise.

[iniquiticity]

Perhaps you can find some in the junkyard?

Why crayons?

[child_proteus]

Now that is an idea, dude. Luckily seems like Memory might have just the thing I'm looking for. As to why, I'm trying to get in touch with my artistic side. Call me a sucker for the classics.

[iniquiticity]

I'd like to see some of your work when you hit it big.

[child_proteus]

I think I'm going to have to work my way up. Not quite sure how hard it is to break into the Fishbowl-Art-Scene. For all I know, competition could be fierce. On the other hand, I could be the Art Scene. In total.
