THIRTY-NINE souls » artist inside?

[martelandmany]

If you've a spare moment... Come to Community Building Four and build a snowman or snow-woman of someone you miss. In their memory, even if they're still alive somewhere. From what I've gathered, this 'holiday season' is one of love and family. It seems only fitting

[Despite his dislike of snow and cold weather, Kazuma ventures out to build two snow people: one of a guy about his age and the other, a little girl. He doesn't have an artistic bone in his body, so it's doubtful they'll even look like people, much less like who they're supposed to represent. However, he knows who they're supposed to be, and that's all he really cares about.]

[martelandmany]

[Okay, so Martel has never met this guy before, but she feels like it'd be wrong to not say something, when she invited people here.] It's likely none of my business, but... Might I ask who they are?

[screw_the_rules]

Two friends of mine from back home. Their names won't mean much to you, but for what it's worth, the taller one's Kimishima and the other one's Kanami. [Points to each in turn.]

I ain't much of an artist, so they don't look much like 'em.

[martelandmany]

I'm no artist, either... I've decided that if you put your heart into something you're trying to create, it's art.

[What a lovely idea, Colette thinks. A perfect chance to release some of the emotions she's been flooded with lately.

So she gets to work. They're not the best snowmen, but they're at least recognizable.

The first is a familiar little pigtailed girl, with sticks tied with ribbon representing said pigtails and a rock where her exsphere would be.

The second is man with sullen, yet kind eyes and a little mustache. Although she never got to see her father much during the past three years, she still misses him dearly.

The final one, of course, is obvious, complete with a heroic expression of eagerness on its face and long ribbons running down the back.]

[martelandmany]

[She steps up beside you, offering a warm and not quite big-sister-ly smile.] You're a wonderful girl, Colette. [Sure, that seems random, but she's not sure how else to express that she's way impressed by your determination in not being emo.]

[throwshammers]

Huh?

[She turns to see Martel. She smiles back.]

...Thank you, Martel. [She smiles a little at the Lloyd snowman.] He would have wanted me to be happy, no matter what.

[martelandmany]

Most others, though, wouldn't be able to manage even knowing that.

[Deciding that Martel has a good idea, Rydia heads over and begins her contribution. The end result is a young woman with long hair and a kind smile. She takes a moment to stare at her finished work and there's some definite longing in that gaze, then she chances around indecisively. To add the others or wait?]

[martelandmany]

[Martel notices the indecision, offering a smile.] We've plenty of room.

[eidolon_soul]

[Rydia glances over and smiles.]

True. I think I know where I want to start now....

[She starts on a new snow person, which starts taking the shape of an old man with glasses. While working on that, she glances over.]

That's some nice snow sculpting. I like all the detail.

[martelandmany]

I've nothing more important to do, for the time being. Sasarai shooed me from the Center... Something about 'taking a break'.

[Yellow 13's no snow artist, but hearing Martel's request really reverberates with him. He'll be there, and he'll make a snowwoman. As a finishing touch, he'll take a series of twigs and place them in the pattern of "04" on its upper back. It doesn't look unlike the 13 on his own jacket. And then he'll start on a smaller, child sized snowman...]

[martelandmany]

[She'll be sitting beside her own snowman, watching his progress, though she isn't staring. Just a casual observance. She appears sympathetic, at the snow-woman... She knows what it feels like to lose a love.]

[ivorygunslinger]

[On ur roof, being a creeper. He may or may not have snow building up on his shoulders due to sitting still for so long.]

[martelandmany]

[She'll glance up at you (after a while, of course... you're a good creeper, but she has like... spidey senses) and then start to build a snowman about ten feet away from her other two, in your honor. It's gonna start to look like Jenova, after a bit...]

[ivorygunslinger]

[Oh good, don't want to hurt that ego of his. He'll just watch Martel build the snow...thing for Jenova, becoming slightly somber. Eww eyeball nipple why would you want to do that Martel.]

[martelandmany]

[Wait nipple wat. So she'll be adding details, mostly in the facial area, since he seems to be observing.]
