they say when you give a man a fish he eats for one day when you teach a man to fish they try to empty out the claw machine

[ another recreation, but with a focus on colors -- her favorite topic. there's a lot she can talk about with color, but putting it into practice is a whole other matter.

... malkuth guesses there's no better time to really practice painting. or maybe she should use colored pencils? markers? chalk? oh, chalk would be fun! temporary, but fun. she'll put it on her grocery list. ]

Got it! I think... this time I'll want you to see my creation in person, so I'll let you know when I'm done! Colors feel like they differ when they're photographed for some reason...

[ not exactly a degradation, but different. ]

[glub]

very good observations
you really are a good student

there are some things you only understand by seeing it in person
things have different impact
so do feelings

[ even the emotions people bring and their own personal backgrounds effect their overall perception, and thus their interpretation, right? or that's what rafayel believes. interpreting and appreciating often came within the construct of ones own understanding of the world and its subtleties, after all. ]

ill see it when youre done
i know you work better with a deadline but dun you think you should step out of your comfort zone and surprise your prof sometimes lol

[ignoreher]

I'll be fine without one this time, don't worry, but I won't keep you waiting forever for it either.

[ hmm. what else... nothing else. no... she wants to keep talking to him... ]

Anyway, I'll let you get back to your painting -- lemme see the finished product when you find the color you're looking for, okay? I'm excited to see how it'll turn out!

[ he wonders if she stresses the bit on waiting by the brief exchanges of the topic in the past. or maybe that she just knew him a little better than he thought. he doesn’t want to think of that possibility. it just felt wrong and for a second it reminds him of the fact that was resolved to keep some distance.

the chat bubble 💬 moves for a second before it stops.

then picks back up: ]

that depends on the artists whim yknow
if you really wanna see it

focus on your assignment first yeah

[ignoreher]

To sweeten my chances of seeing it, I'll bring over some fruit one day. How's that?

[glub]

too many variables
i cant sayyyy

[ignoreher]

[ the chat bubble starts a little

stops

then continues ]

What do fishies like to eat? Or should I guess?

[glub]

isnt asking kinda cheating

[ ( rafayel voice ) you don't understand me ]

[ignoreher]

[ she's gonna have to guess. ]

Don't complain if I swing by with something you don't like then, Rafayel! But I'll try to figure out your tastes.

[ ... within the limitations of karteria, anyway. that's going to be the hard part... ]

[glub]

considering your tastes should i be scared

then ill await the most monstruous looking fruit
