Who: Annie Leonhardt stohess and........ YOU.
What: A newcomer explores the castle. What is going on? What is happen? What is this place evena all about? Why are there no walls? you know. Big ones.
When: The morning of September 6.
Where: Cair Paradisa.
Rating: ???

So this was a new world.

As impossible as it was, it was a relief. From what she initially discovered about Paradisa, it knew nothing of the taint of the titans... and humans, although still small in number, were thriving and free. It was leagues better than back home, where certain repercussions awaited her. Not that she was one to stray from reaping what she sowed, she couldn't help but refuse to accept punishment for something in which she couldn't remember her reasoning.

It was annoying, to say the least. But really, what did it matter? She was stuck here now, and here she would stay.

And so, she'd explore. She would get a feel for this so-called kingless castle, something completely separate from the fucked up political and miltaristic system she had seemingly left behind.

Not that this place was much less a prison...

He pushes a blank piece of paper towards her, some crayons. "That doesn't matter! Anybody can make art if they want to, and they can always get better. I wasn't this good when I started!"

[stohess]

Oh no, things being offered. By children. No matter how insensitive you were, if children speaking optimism to you is offered your way, you tke it. Not that Annie thought herself insensitive. Not that she had anything better to do.

"Where should I start?"

[pastina]

"Anywhere, ve!"

Italy looks back down at his own drawing, shades a little here, adds fur there. He's concentrating very hard, which is amazing for him, since there are so few things that can hold his attention.

[stohess]

She's looking at the paper and grabs a red crayon. Okay, fine. Why not.

After a moment of deliberation, Annie draws a circle. It is slightly crooked. Very crooked. It is actually terrible.

[pastina]

He looks over and nods approvingly. "That's a good start! What next?"

[stohess]

Now she's drawing a neck. And then a body. It may be completely out of proportion, but it is beginning to look like an animal of some sort. Maybe.

It sure was hard drawing things from memory!

[pastina]

It looks like a good animal to Italy. He hums and nods, then goes back to his own drawing. You know what this bunny needs? A family! He is going to draw this bunny a big happy family to hop in the fields with.
