"You seem really depressed." She ate her cashew, coloring the dove a bright red.

"I'm depressed?" he asked, tilting his head to the side in confusion. Wasn't he all smiles and sunshine?
"I don't know," she said, "Why are you telling me that? You just met me. Do you want to color?"
"Why should I color? I've got stuff to do," he replied, sighing.
"You have time." She made purple stars in the green sky.
Crimson frowned and sighed, sitting down. The girl was... odd.
She gave him a paper with a bluebird. "Do you like birds? I also have a jedi coloring book, if you don't, but one of the other kids heckled it and made them all stupid. It was the Phantom Menace one, so I don't care, but maybe you'd like it."
Crimson sighed and started filling in colors, going along with it.
"Hey sis, what you doing?" Boreas asked with his usual smirk.
She seemed happy to have someone coloring with her and went silent for a long time. "Do you like orange juice?" she finally asked, picking the last cashew out of the trail mix.
"I suppose," he said, putting on his false happiness again.
"Just thought be nice to see ya is all" he said with a kind tap on her shoulder.
"It's best with waffles." She finished up the picture, coloring over her previous antics at an essay. She bit her tongue, focusing intently on her picture.
"I see. What about pancakes?" he asked, shrugging. He had no opinion.
"Pancakes are good. My surrogate made apricot syrup. Do you like apricot syrup?" She pulled out the jedi book and started coloring a child-Anikan with a purple marker mustache.
"I haven't had it," he said, shrugging again as he added in extra edges to the wings, detailing them.
"Well what did you wish to do today?" he asked with a grin.
"Don't eat my crayons," she whispered, leaning so close to the paper that her nose touched the mustache.
"I'm not going to eat any crayons," he said, rolling his eyes as he finished the bird.
"Ooh..." she looked over at his paper, leaning forward and blinking, wild hair everywhere, since she obviously hadn't cared to brush it. Rather than looking like a majestic phoenix, she looked rather like a barn owl. "You colored her very pretty. I bet she likes her new coat. What did you name her?"
"Um... Azure?" Crimson asked, shrugging. He hadn't thought about it. "Do you have a thing for birds?" he asked.
"Well be happy for you silly" he said nudging her shoulder and laughing.
"My mum was a bird," she said, switching from an American accent to English. She tended to do that, randomly go into various accents, like she was born and raised in every country in existence. "Least I think so. I don't really remember a lot. But I see things, sometimes. I'm a very odd child. We're out of almonds."
"Okay. They're cashews, but okay," Crimson said, shrugging. "Ah. Well, my dad was a demon, so whatever."
"My dad was a very strange man," she said, crossing her legs and finishing Anikan, who seemed to be heckled even more. "It's a pity some people just don't let me color my annoying preteens by myself. What are cashews?"
"Why wouldn't I, I was alone for a while" he said with asmile.
"The nuts. You're calling them almonds, but they're cashews," Crimson said, wondering if she was just nutty because, well, just because. When would she get frightened? When would she scream and attack him? He was expecting it.
"Oh." she looked a little surprised. "Then what are almonds?" She closed her coloring book and chewed on the wood of her pencil, yawning slightly. "You can keep your bird, if you hang her up on your wall so she's always flying."
"I don't have a wall yet," he said, since he didn't have a dorm. "Almonds are... well, I don't know how to explain it. Less salty."
"I mean do things for you sis not others" he said still calm and smiling.
"You should get a wall. It's easy. I'm not much of a student, but I still got four walls. And a bed." She tilted her head, wrinkling her nose. "They sound weird."
"Maybe you should try them," Crimson said, shrugging. You sound weird, he noted internally.
"Maybe. And I don't sound weird." She started packing up her crayons. "Are there any almonds in the dish?" she continued, like she hadn't just randomly said that.
"Just so your don't feel like this" he said with a sigh.
"I never leave family, you know that" he said with a smile and hugged her lightly.
"Well want to go do something then?" he asked with a grin.
"Well haven't worked on the ice powers yet" he said with a smile.
"A arena or training room yes" he said pretty sure he had heard of it.
"Only other person here who is the incarnation of ice, who else would I train with?" he asked with a smirk.
"Well haven't met such a lady so I will go with my sister" he said with a smile, maybe that would happen.
"Yes good time to test the ice form" he said with a nod.
"Well then excited again sis?" he asked with a laugh and headed slowly towards the wing it was in.
((Yep right after this post then))"Well not like I have room to talk, nothing but jokes here" he said with a smirk and usual sarcastic tone.

"Are there any almonds in the dish?" she continued, like she hadn't just randomly said that.""I never said you did," Crimson said, a master at hiding his emotions and thoughts. Lying wasn't hard. "I don't think there are, no."
"Yes you did." She looked in the bowl, hunting for either almonds or cashews, but having forgotten what each looked like, she leaned back into her chair. "Oh well."
"Cashews taste better, anyway," he said, shrugging.
"Oh, good. Do you know what schoolwork I'm supposed to be doing?" she asked, shrugging back at him.
"No. I just got here," Crimson said, still pleasant and kind-sounding.
"Oh. You know things, so I was just hoping you knew what I was supposed to know." She wrinkled her nose at the raisins and various nuts left over in the bowl.
"What, you want someone to remember things for you?" Crimson asked, tilting his head to the side.
