Day 36: Arts & Crafts Room

The nurse had told Wash he could go anywhere he wanted and the thought Is home included in that? crossed his mind, but that sounded too pathetic to say aloud, even for him. So he silently eenie meenie minie moe'd through his options, ended up choosing the Sun Room, and then promptly decided the Arts and Crafts room would be more interesting. At least there might be stuff he could fiddle with and distract himself.

A part of him couldn't decide if he was relieved or not he didn't get a visitor. He didn't think it would've gone the way a proper visit was supposed to go, but...

He stepped into the room and sat down at an empty table, rifling through the materials absently. This place looked much too cheerful. Although maybe that was better than looking much too scary, but it was so cheerful it was almost scary and now he was starting to confuse even himself.

After a second, he picked up a pair of scissors (these weren't scissors, they were more like plastic chopsticks) and a sheet of construction paper and began cutting.

He smiled again. "Of course I will." Not would. Will. Luxord leaned forward and planted a kiss on the girl's forehead.

"Did you come here to make something, peanut? I could help, if you wish."

I'll defend your territory when you leave, homeslice. >8( <3

That was enough for her, Naminé blushing when Luxord gave her a fatherly peck on the forehead. She really was trying to not cry. It was not so bad this way, was it? Luxord gave her ample warning, and visitors came every week. No, it would not be so bad. As long as he was happy with his new life, right?

"Y-yes, actually, I am!" She quickly wiped her eyes, looking around at the glitter that lay around them. "My roommate and I decided to make a lucky charm, so that we might have a little extra luck when traveling around during the night. In my case, I think I need all the luck I can get."

Make sure you remember how to bust kneecaps like how I taught you.

At least she was understanding, unlike II, who had literally pitched a fit and threatened to violently torture him and his Other, nights before. And he would be happy, wouldn't he...? Just having his heart would be...

He chuckled at Naminé's enthusiasm and once again ruffled her hair, just for the sake of it. "I'm afraid I lack the talent you do for making... much of anything," he admitted, "but luck I can help with. Come now, let's find what you need."

I could never forget. <3

"I know we thought of using origami paper," Naminé thought, glancing to where said paper was stored. And then her gaze was directed to the glitter that was lying on the floor, and on her clothing, and probably was in her hair if she was able to look. It was pretty popular lately, as Naminé recalled a particularly shiny note on the bulletin board.

"And maybe we can use whatever's left of the glitter, too."

Luxord was not about to admit it, but he really had no idea in the slightest how to make charms. Where he was concerned, normal items could be considered good luck charms, like a sea shell or even your best friend. How would one go about making one?

Hm. The Gambler reached into his sleeve and pulled out the suit of diamonds, the 2, 3, 4, 6, and 10 of hearts, and the bag of glitter, handing them over to the girl in front of him. "I know naught about origami, but I do promise luck with these. And sparkles."
