2nd Light - Craft Time [Voice/Common]

[lightwithin]

[Kairi's sitting on a branch that overhangs the pool on deck 3. She hesitates, and as though prompting her, the comm squirts water at her. It starts recording in time to catch her laughter.]

OK! I'm doing it!

Does anyone know where I can find shells on board? Or know anything about drying out nuts and seeds?

I like making charms and things out of them. Back home they're lucky for sailors and well, we are on a boat.

[She goes to close the connection, but then adds.]

Oh, and if anybody still has those pasta necklaces the Captain gave out and doesn't want them anymore, could I have them?

[If she can't find any good string, a good supply of dental floss would have to do.]

Comments

[lightwithin]

It is sad. With all the memories things like that hold, they can't just be replaced. But there's always new memories.

I don't think I'm unlucky. Bad things happen to everyone. Good luck charms help me stay positive. But it doesn't sound like they work for you.

I could try to create more, sometime.

So far, I've had good luck upon this ship, considering the circumstances. However, I've never had a good luck charm...

If I brought you some materials... would you create one for me?

[lightwithin]

Sure, I'll try. What kind of materials?

And, considering the circumstances?

[dukealla.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure... I'm not sure how you can make charms of marbles, sadly. What else would make a nice charm?

...

Some unfortunate things happened when I first woke upon this vessel but some people actually took the time to assisted me. It was quite a nice change for once.

[lightwithin]

Oh no, I think I can use marbles. I'll find some beads and string in the shops.

Uh, what's your name?

[She can't really tell if she's talking to a boy or a girl. And well, different things suit different people.]

I'm Kairi.

I'm glad they helped you. There are a lot of nice people here, even if it doesn't always seem like it.

[Although his voice is still a bit hissy, Duke is smiling and it caues his tone to change to suit.]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Kairi. I'm Duke. Duke Alla D'Aubergine.

Seems more ice people than not, upon this vessel.

[And, his voice goes back to its normal hiss, a bit sad sounding]

I apologize. I may not have the marbles and materials ready for you for a few days. I have to make them, you see. However, I shall contact you via this contraption, somehow, when I have them ready for you. I do hope they're to your liking, Miss Kairi.

[lightwithin]

[Kairi giggles. She's not really used to being addressed formally.]

Likewise, Duke Alla.

And I like to think so.

[Why bring up all the sadness and death that people were talking about when she first got here? Things have been so much brighter since then.]

That's fine. I'm going to need to find some extra things anyway, so no need to hurry. I'll talk to you then!

[dukealla.livejournal.com]

Please, "Duke" is just fine.

[Oh, yes he seems much happier now]

Thank you. You're a very kind. Until then, please keep safe.
