 [Lea seems to be sitting at the table in his apartment, a small pile of cards in front of him.]

Man, I haven't seen Valentine cards this cheesy since I was in grade school. I mean, take a look at this one...

[He holds the card up so that the drone's camera can focus in on it. for a few moments.]

Who else thinks the miasma needs to find another card shop to swipe from?

That would be pretty. I have enough I should be able to make lots of pretty things.

Re: [video]

[hotheadwarmheart]

That'd be cool. You'll have to show me what you end up making, OK?

[Hopefully it'd eat up time enough for the weirdness to wear off.]

Re: [video]

[mercury_gaze]

[She beams up at him] Of course! I’d be making it for you!

Re: [video]

[hotheadwarmheart]

Really?

[He's clearly a bit surprised; he hadn't really expected anyone to make him anything.]

Well, now I'm really looking forward to seeing it.

Re: [video]

[mercury_gaze]

Of course! Why wouldn't it be for you?

[You're her new Papa!]

Re: [video]

[hotheadwarmheart]

Well, I dunno. I thought you were just making t to, well, make it. For something to do, you know?

[Please don't tell him that; he's not ready to be a papa! Even if he kind of is one already.]

Re: [video]

[mercury_gaze]

[She beams up at him.]

I could, but I’d rather make it for you.

Re: [video]

[hotheadwarmheart]

Well then, I can't wait to see it.

[He's actually kind of touched; it's been awhile since someone made him something just because.]

You let me know if you need help with anything, alright?

[They did have the 'don't play with sharp things without supervision' discussion, didn't they?]

[No, but Jendayi is unaware of the existence of scissors and her Papa gave her a small knife to carry on her, so....]

[Anyway, what she's gonna do is start tearing the cards, so no worries there.]

You can't watch. [She's gonna shift around with her back to him.]

[And Woo is going to swoop over to get between his line of sight and her.]

And another tag or two should wrap this one up too! :3

[hotheadwarmheart]

[Lea chuckles as both Jendayi the drone move to block his view.]

Alright. Just lemme know when it's done, then.

Yup~

[mercury_gaze]

Uh-huh... [she’s a little distracted.]

[About half an hour later she’ll come find him and present him a page full of ripped up cards, the colorful pieces arranged into a heart and stuck together with some kind of sticky substance she found. It’s...not glue, but it works well enough, whatever it is (egg whites and honey...)]

[She’s just gonna hold it up with a big grin on her face.]

And wrap unless you want to have one more response from Jendayi. :)

[hotheadwarmheart]

[Lea grins and picks Jendayi up, examining the piece of artwork.]

This is great, Jendayi. Thanks. And I know just where to put it too.

[Because as every parent or pseudo parent knows, when a kid gives you a piece of handmade art? You put that thing on the fridge. And since Lea at least had the foresight to pick up a few fridge magnets, Jendayi's paper heart will be adorning the fridge for quite some time.]
