Forty-Second Show - [Voice/Drawn/Action]

[meteorical]

[She's been back from the battle for a couple of days, and even though she spent the first few resting on and off and visiting with people, Kairi's starting to grow restless.

Having a broken leg really doesn't do much for her activity.

Thankfully, Mia made it seem (and feel) as though it wouldn't take long at all to heal.

So today, Lucetians, if you were to open your journal you would probably be greeted with a bunch of stars. Stars of all shapes, sizes, colors and designs. She's currently drawing and then coloring in the outlines.]

So just how old is too old for coloring books anyway? Don't laugh, it's a real question. I'm running out of options...I mean the company I've had has been nice, but I'm not going to force them to stay here.

Let's pretend you were stuck inside your room for a while. What would you do to entertain yourself?

I've been thinking about what to do when this is over though. I think I'd like to start getting involved more, helping people. [Sora and Riku were both part of the Blue Rogues at one point. Xion wanted to become a doctor. What was she doing? What should she be doing?] I just wonder what the best way to do that would be. I guess I'll look over options later.

[And so she'll go back to drawing. Anyone who knows where House 14 is is welcome to visit her. Otherwise she'll be listening for anyone speaking to her.]

It's better. Not quite 100%, but definitely better than it was. Thank you again, by the way.

That's the kind of answer I like to hear.

I might have one of the boys grab me some books. What kind do you like? As for the view? I'm next to a window. I think it's good enough.

I want to make people feel comfortable and help them be less worried about the things that happen here, I guess. I want to contribute some way since I'm not sure I'm cut out to protect like the boys and Xion are.

You're welcome. I'm Ginia, by the way. I don't think I caught your name out there.

What kind of coloring book do you have?

I like dramas, mysteries, historical fiction, and the occasional horror book. [Basically everything.] Sounds like a nice view there. Fresh air is good.

I think the best thing to do then is to be there. Be a listening ear and a shoulder to cry on no matter the time or place, always be ready with a warm cup of tea or whatever drink they may like, don't judge, just listen, and be there.

I'm Kairi. It's nice to officially meet you.

Right now? A handmade one. [She draws an arrow to point at the stars.] I should probably look into getting an actual book.

Sounds like a pretty good variety. I don't think I've ever read anything that'd be considered historical fiction. Is it just like it sounds? And it is a nice view. I like being able to keep the window open.

You really think so? I want to be able to do that for everyone I can.

[shadedsunlight]

Nice to officially meet you too.

They're lovely. If I see one at the item shop, should I bring it by?

Yes, for the most part. It's usually based around a certain time period of specific event and the author explores other details or alternate views. The what ifs.

I think you can, yes.

[Written]

[meteorical]

...that would actually be really nice. You might have a few problems finding our house though.

Interesting enough...it's just like rewriting facts then. What's your favorite one?

Thanks. I guess I'll just have to work harder when I can get back out there.

[shadedsunlight]

I can get a filter up if it's a secret.

Yes, or sometimes fictional set in a specific time period that have influences from the setting, but no bearing on it. I'm fond of The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas and Little Women by Louisa May Alcott.

Take it easy first, yes? Bone breaks can be a hard thing to recover from.

[Written]

[meteorical]

It's not that...I mean it's a long story and...okay maybe a filter wouldn't be a bad idea.

I think Roxas has a copy of The Three Musketeers in his room. I'd have to ask him, but he's really picky about lending out his books.

Oh, definitely. But Mia did a good job mending it up.

All right, filter is up.

If he won't loan it to you, I think the library has one.

Glad to hear that. I suppose having magic around here is quite helpful.

The story is that my friend, Xion? She had a friend that put up a magic charm around our house to protect all of us...we had a problem with someone who broke into our house and nearly killed another friend of ours, so Xion took action and had her friend protect us. But the spell makes the house invisible unless someone lives here, or a Secret Keeper tells a person. It's complicated.

I'll have to check it out then. Both of them, even. Are they long stories?

So I've noticed. It's amazing what some of these people here can do.

[shadedsunlight]

I'm very sorry to hear that happened. If I find some coloring books, is there someone in your house I can contact and have them give the books to you?

They're both novels, but pretty easy reads.

It really is. There isn't any magic where I come, just in books, so this is all fascinating to me.

[Written | 100% unhackable]

[meteorical]

Things are better now at least, but I know we won't be taking the spell off anytime soon...and I'm not sure we can. Xion's friend left, but that other boy she knows can use magic, too. We'll see. But for now? Either Sora or Riku or Axel or Roxas or Xion...they all live here. Or Jacob Black. He knows where the house is.

I think I'll take a trip to the library when I can leave the house then. Thanks for the suggestions.

Really? Have you been attempting to learn at all?

[Written | 100% unhackable]

[shadedsunlight]

Understandable. Probably best to have it anyway. I'll keep those names in mind.

You're welcome.

I've had some help connecting with Nala. I can do minor cuts and ease the pain off bruises, but that's about it.

[Written | 100% unhackable]

[meteorical]

Thanks a lot. They're not too hard to find, I promise.

That's a pretty good start. How long have you been working with her?

[Written | 100% unhackable]

[shadedsunlight]

No problem. I'll keep an eye out for them.

A few weeks now with some help.

[Written | 100% unhackable]

[meteorical]

She's pretty good to work with for a starter. Have you contacted any of the others?

[Written | 100% unhackable]

I have someone offering to help me with Kipinn so I'll give him a shot back. [Of course, that requires her teacher to come back from his mallynapping first.]

[Written | 100% unhackable]

[meteorical]

I've heard he's pretty easy to get in touch with, too. I haven't had much time lately to try with the spirits.

[Written | 100% unhackable] ....That was supposed to be next, not back.

[shadedsunlight]

It's all pretty new to me. Magic doesn't exist in my world, but I guess it's good I have willing teachers and a stubborn nature.

[Written | 100% unhackable] ...my brain autofixed it because I didn't even notice.

[meteorical]

Yeah? Who are you learning from?

[Written | 100% unhackable] ...Go brains!

[shadedsunlight]

Helios and Giles.

[Written | 100% unhackable] \o/!

[meteorical]

[She's never met either of them, but she's heard things around the village.] Sounds like you're all set then. They seem to know what they're doing.

[Written | 100% unhackable]

[shadedsunlight]

They're both great guys. I don't think I could have gotten as far as I have without their help.

[Written | 100% unhackable]

[meteorical]

How did you become their student in the first place? Just asked?

[Written | 100% unhackable]

[shadedsunlight]

Pretty much, yes, though both of them offered to help first and I simply took them up on their offers. Helios' at least. Hadn't had a chance to work with Giles with magic yet.

[Written | 100% unhackable]

[meteorical]

I've learned on and off from a few people. I was just curious how many other teachers were out there.
