[If Luceti were a martial arts movie, the following scenes would be presented in a training montage, complete with dramatic cinematography and epic orchestral music:

✏ Pao-lin going to the library to check out various art books
✏ Pao-lin scribbling furiously in a sketchbook and frowning thoughtfully at said scribbles before tearing out the page, crumpling it up, and then tossing it randomly over her shoulder, where it joins a roving gang of other unwanted brainchildren
✏ Pao-lin scouting out the location for her mural
✏ Colored pencils being dumped out in unceremonious slow-motion onto a tabletop, to be culled down to the very best by Pao-lin's discerning eyes
✏ Pao-lin sweeping eraser shavings off a page already worn thin with multiple erasings
✏ A pencil sharpener dropping to the floor, vomiting out pencil shavings that still need to be cleaned up as of the time of this entry
✏ The dark silhouette of Pao-lin from behind, illuminated only by the light of a lantern, as she works late into the night
✏ And finally, a hard-won smile of victory and relief as she holds up the final product of her blood, sweat, and brain cells

But since Luceti is just an RP, all you get is that checklist. |D You'll have to provide your own soundtrack, I'm afraid. (Ghost Love Score may be a good place to start, though.)

TL;DR, Pao-lin worked hard on this, yo. Designing this mural had been more difficult than she'd thought it would be: she actually slacked off a bit (but just a bit!) on her usual training in order to make sure she could give her best to this project. Now she's ready to show off what she's got. Are your bodies ready?

Pao-lin shoves some clutter off her worktable before setting the journal upright on it and turning the video feed on. As she sits down, her eyes stray briefly to the side as she checks a nearby piece of paper to remind her what to cover in this post. Then she smiles and waves.]

Hi, everyone, it's Pao-lin here again! I came up with a design for Luceti's mural!

[Proudly (and yet a little bit shyly), she holds out a sketchbook featuring this eye-blisteringly bright rendering of her design idea.]

I tried to use the happiest colors I could think of! [Yes, there is a predominance of yellow and yellowish tones in the design. She is totally not biased at all. Totally not.] The red circles are gonna be where anyone can paint in their favorite thing about their own world, or even about Luceti if they want. And it doesn't have to be red, either, there'll be other colors! I also tried to go with something simple so it wouldn't take too long, and so that it'd be easier for more people to help out. [Also because trying to design anything more complicated gave her mun a headache.] As for when this will happen...I checked the calendar at the Welcome Center, and I think it might be okay if we started work next Friday. I know that it's right after Thanksgiving, but it'll be a good way to work off all the food you eat! Since it's a simple design, we can do most of this on Friday and Saturday as long as there are enough people painting. That way, anyone can come in on Sunday and add their own drawings in the circles! Most of the circles will be painted beforehand, but we can always do more if we need to.

[A pause as she checks her reminder list again.]

Oh! The mural will be located between the Welcome Center and Azzip. Toph has volunteered to raise a stone wall for us to paint on, as well as a shelter around the wall so that we can paint without being snowed on or whatever. Thanks, Toph!

Well, I think that's all for now. If you have any questions or comments, don't be afraid to tell me, okay? I want to make sure that this mural is the best that we can make it!
