Oh yeah, that'd be smarter than me bringing it to you, if you want it to be a surprise.

Hey Charles, what are your favorite colors?

My favourite . . . ? Blue, I suppose. I have an odd fondness for pale brown - a more ochre kind of colouring.

[She goes to a blank screen on her frame and does a few slashes of color on it -- a few shades of ochre, and then a wider range of blues, intense to muted, light to dark.]

Which do you think?

Very nice. Albeit, I'm no art critic, but I enjoy the play of light.

[She laughs and leans against him briefly.] Pick your favorite shades, silly.

Oh. Yes. Uh.

[ He skims the palette before picking something akin to sky blue and a fawnish-brown. ]

[She puts a little mark next to each.]

Awesome. It's a good combination.

Do you draw?

Not even a little, I'm afraid.

Wanna learn?

Me?

I'm afraid I'm not the most artistically minded. As you have . . . already noticed.

I think everyone is artistic in their own way.

Bet you'd still like the game I taught Delta.

What game is that?

[Wrath props the digital frame over both their laps. She takes the stylus and draws a little stick figure person.] So once upon a time, there was an awesome guy named Charles. And he lived...

[She hands Charles the stylus. His turn.]

[ He taps it to his chin before drawing a brown house. ]

In a chocolate house. There he had . . .

Ooh! A puppy made out of sprinkles!

[Multicolored dog ahoy.]

And there was...

[ A pause, before he sketches. His drawing skills are not actually awful, due to the fact that diagrams were a heavy part of his studies. ]

A girl named Wrath. She brought rainbows wherever she went. And then . . .

[Awww, cute! She grins and bumps Charles's shoulder lightly with her own once he's done sketching.]

They decided to take a walk on the moon! [She adds a moon-like landscape.]

You realize now I'm thinking of the logistics of breathing on the moon.

[ He adds some helmets. ]

You're very practical, Charles. I think there should be jet packs, too.

[Adding those in.]

Why jet packs?

The question you really need to ask yourself is "why not jetpacks?"

I can't say I have a great fondness for them.

What did jetpacks do to you?

Erik likes to fly. I'm not a fan.

[Wrath regards their little picture, then backs it up to remove the jetpacks.]

So they had... hoverboards.

[Like skateboards, but floaty. She adds those. They don't go that high. And are still fun. Pleased with herself, she also adds a little cartoon of Erik in his #1 Baker hat flying around with a jetpack in the distance.]
