[At least Naminé's water is the right color and this is why she's the artist. They seem to recall what she's said before about friends, and about how she views people and the like. They shouldn't pry, but it's better than thinking about death.

Isn't it?]

Complicated how? Who is he...?

[whitewalls]

He's someone who's very important where I'm from. Light and darkness... the concept isn't too different from what I'm used to.

[ she'll reach for a different shade of blue. ]

[cyclists]

I see...[Well that's bad.] Light and darkness are kind of familiar to me and where I'm from, too. I think that's why this place asked me to stay.

[whitewalls]

That would make sense.

[ she'll add the other blue into the water too. ]

Sora has a very powerful heart. He's the one who'll save everyone.

[cyclists]

Hearing something like that? It makes me wonder why he's not here.

[whitewalls]

... I wonder that too. He'd be a better choice than I am.

[ she's reaching for the green now. ]

[cyclists]

[This just in, everyone in KH has crappy self-esteem. They don't respond to that immediately, watching her draw as their hand goes still.]

There's this girl I know. She doesn't really know how to fight or anything, but she did something really, really important for all of us back home. Even though it probably scared her and people didn't want her to interfere and ruin their plans, she did it anyway.

You sort of remind me of her. [Back to drawing they go.] Even if there are people you think who could be better, I think there are still things you could do.

[whitewalls]

She sounds like a nice girl.

[ she glances up with the paper to look at them. not being able to see someone's face because of a hood isn't unknown to her, but this is one of the moments where she kind of wishes she could reach over and pull it down. ]

... but we'll see. I'll still try my best, regardless of my capabilities.

[cyclists]

She is. She deserved a happy ending, too, just like the rest of us. [They don't clarify if "us" is the people they know or the people here, but maybe it doesn't make a huge difference. Black flowers are being drawn on the page now. This is apparently just a lot of places in the village but in black crayon and not great skill.]

Have you been practicing with your magic? [Speaking of capabilities.]

[whitewalls]

[ she makes a noise of affirmation at the happy ending, because she's sure that girl did.

... at the question, though, naminé shrugs lightly. ]

I have. I'm not very good at it.

[cyclists]

A lot of people aren't when they first start out, especially if they aren't used to magic. You're earth, right? [They know that much.] You might be able to learn a little more in the forest.

[whitewalls]

I kind of wish I got something else, but...

[ she'll place down the crayon so she can inspect her drawing ]

I hope I won't need to use it.

[cyclists]

Even if it could be for something good? [A thought. But they lean over to also look at the drawing.]

[whitewalls]

[ it's mostly the ocean, and some starfish. ]

That's why I'm going to practice anyway.

[cyclists]

[Hello ocean.]

It helps to practice with other people.

[Love yourself and make friends, Naminé.]

[whitewalls]

I think I've been doing okay on my own.

[ no :/ ]

[cyclists]

[/CLOSES EYES.]

But wouldn't you do better if someone was helping you while they were learning, too?

[whitewalls]

I'm not sure who I'd ask.

[ lea and xion are right there ]

[cyclists]

...what about Axel? Or Xion? You guys are all still learning.

[whitewalls]

Axel's probably having an easier time with his.

[ that doesn't answer the question ]

[cyclists]

That's because Axel's kind of a showoff. [No.] And that's not what I mean. They could help you train.

[whitewalls]

I want to stay as out of their way as I can, especially Axel.

[cyclists]

I don't think you'd be in the way....they seem like the kind of people who might be okay with that. Have you asked?

[whitewalls]

No.

[ she'll grab another crayon. yellow this time. ]

[cyclists]

...you should. You might be surprised. [They're just watching her color at this point.]
