► third sketch [Video]

Mm, I think that will do.

[The feed clicks on abruptly with a soft "toge!" People around Violet town will see an interesting sight. A bunch of locals, pokemon and one Nobody are gathered around one part of town, with boxes of decorations, lights, streamers, banners, and occasional lanterns and several other things for the festival. Naminé herself has an armful of posters in her arms, and she watches some of the locals stretch out the flag streamers they had worked on all morning, preparing to hoist them up. Everything seems to have a fall-theme to it, with warm oranges, bright yellows and reds.

Sky, Naminé's Pidgey, has an end of the flag streamer in one claw, and she flies off to one end, raising it to quite a height as she passes the feed. It might be a little early, but with so many things to be done, it's better if things got started.]

[ooc: action to anyone in Violet. They could use the help!]

Wait, you made this? It tastes just like the kind we buy at home!

He'll eat anything if you let him!

-- Here, lemme help you with something?

Have you tried feeding him the berries? I know they love those.

Mm, okay. Can you help put these up?

[Sh ehands him the posters that is advertising the festival, the Struggle tournament, and the pokemon tournament. ONE MINUTE AND THIRTY SECONDS, SORA. GO.]

[Salty doesn't give up, edging closer and trying to convince Kotarou to play. The supplies all around makes it a nice playing ground! Or they can ravage Namine's bag, she has pokeberries in there!]

Okay. Um... let's see...

[She looks around for something for Misha to do.]

They're mostly warm colors. Sora said our theme was fall.

[Oranges, reds, light pinks, whites, yellows! There are some pokemon themed balloons. Like those drifloon and pikachu face balloons.]

You think so?

Definitely! [Brb he's stuffing his face now.]

Oh, good. I was worried I had it wrong. I only tasted it once back home...

[And she drifts off at that. And it wasn't a good memory either.]

Oooh, perfect! That's a good color palette to work with!

[ Rise's immediately assembling handfuls of threes: orange/red/yellow, yellow/white/pink, red/yellow, and one of those Pikachu balloons... ]

[Kotarou chirps indecisively, taking slow steps toward Salty. Play is good, but... but...! So shyyyyy. ;w;

Trouble with Misha helping, too, is that she will inevitably find a way to mess up whatever she is helping with, because they don't come much more clumsy than this one. Even something as simple as putting up decorations and such. BUT SHE IS DETERMINED TO TRY.]

I don't gots my wingies right now, so I can't put stuff high up anymores, but I can do anything else, su! So what kindsa other stuff needs doin'?!

Whoa, you guys have sea salt ice cream too? [He did look excited at first, but that drift off had him quieting a little, blinking and watching.]

... Well, now you can have it more, right?

[Salty waves her arms a little, decisively heading for Naminé's bag and diving headfirst into the open zipper. They can eat instead!

... too bad Naminé doesn't know that. She goes to one box and pulls out a roll of ribbon and a pair of scissors.]

Can you try cutting these into this length?

[She shows one she already cut out.]

We'll tie it together with the ribbons.

In Twilight Town, it's pretty popular. Especially during summer.

Mm. If we sell enough during the festival, I think the owner of the pokemart agreed that they'll keep making it. Right now, we only have enough for it.

[She pulls out the ribbons precut earlier. They'll be used to tie the balloons to the lamp post.]

You've been super busy, it looks like.

[Kotarou wanders over, very interested in what Salty is looking for. Eat, you say? Food is good.

Misha nods energetically, taking the scissors and unrolling a little of the ribbon so that it touches the ground.]

Gotcha, su! I'm on it!!

[She holds the already-cut ribbon to the roll for reference, carefully tries to take aim, and... snips! Perhaps a bit too enthusiastically, though; she winds up cutting into a little of the finished one by accident, and her cut of the new one is slightly slanted.]

...Oopsie!

Nice! We have it in Radiant Garden too... kind of cool that we have the same ice cream!

Yeah? That'd be great! We'll have to make sure we sell plenty then!

Mm. I figured the people around here liked seeing it.

... you had it there?

I'm not sure if people will like it though, so that's what I'm worried about.

[And Salty upsets the bad, causing the contents to roll on the floor. Oops. But look! That container there has pokemon food!]

It's okay if it's slanted. As long as they're in a length we can tie them into ribbons, it should be fine.

It was all I could do from getting scared when everything changed.

... I usually draw whenever I'm... not feeling comfortable, so I had a lot of time to do this during that time with the weird music.

Yeah!

Pfft, it's great, I don't see why people wouldn't like it.

... [ awww, Naminé, she's reaching out to place a hand on her shoulder. ]

I think we were all scared-- if I hadn't people there to snap me out of it, I probably would've been useless. [ she smiles faintly. ] But you did a good job with that sketch! I'd love to see more of your stuff.

[She stiffens a little at that hand on the shoulder thing, cause THAT JUST GIVES HER BAD MEMORIES OF MARLUXIA DOING THAT but she relaxes after a while.]

Mm. Do you want me to draw you something?

I think some people are uncomfortable with mixing salty ["Prii!" goes Salty. She needs to stop doing that.] and sweet together.
