[Styxx had been thinking about this for awhile, and finally decided to turn on his phone to make an offer to everyone.]

I know everyone might have someone that they miss from their homes. Perhaps someone you've lost, or a memory, place, or story you want to remember or tell, so I'm making an offer for everyone to sketch those people or places for them. No charge since it's something to keep me busy. Let me know if you are interested.

[And then he holds up a sketchbook and flips through a few pages, keeping the more personal ones out of view.]

Some of my work.

[He shows a few sketches. Sketch 2. Sketch 3. Each looks like they might jump off the page at any moment, showing Styxx's skill and emotions all put into them.

Once he's done showing the sketches, he ends the feed.]

That's a very interesting drawing style.

Would you be able to make a picture of a small team of people if I gave you holopics of them?

Re: [Video | Private]

[despisesthegods]

Yes. Either that or a detailed description would work.

[k2so]

I have some records of my old team, there's five humans and me, I can send the pictures to your communicator.

I'd like to give this as a present to my husband, I know he misses them. Are you sure you don't want anything in exchange?

Re: [Video | Private]

[despisesthegods]

I'm sure. I know what it's like to miss people who are important to you, so I don't want to charge for them. Go ahead and send them the pictures over and I'll get started on it.

Re: [Video | Private]

[k2so]

You too, uh? it really sucks. Thank you so much for this.

[ He's going to send him a recording of Jyn, Cassian, Chirrut, Baze, Bodhi and himself from their time in the planet Eadu. ]

My name is K2So, Kaytoo for short.

[phoenixstrut]

More art for my fridge?

[despisesthegods]

Do you have something specific in mind?

[phoenixstrut]

[She shakes her head.]

Take care of those with decent memories from home first.

[Her good ones are old and just make her feel guilty. He should prioritize other people first.]

And when you run out of those, we can see how you are with birds.

[despisesthegods]

I have some time. If there's something you want, go ahead and ask.

[Phones (and if he's honest, quite a lot of the technology he's encountered since arrival) are new to Artorias in a way that he can't even begin to wrap his head around how they might work even if sorcery were involved, so it's largely happenstance that he runs across this message. And yet... seeing something familiar - even through a device he's doing his best to at least learn the functions of - is soothing in a way, as is the sentiment behind it.]

You have a great deal of talent. 'Tis almost as if... [Ah, but he shouldn't talk about that.] ...You are confident in your ability to recreate people based upon description alone?

Re: [video]

[despisesthegods]

I've had nothing but memories and descriptions to go off of for a long time so I believe so, yes. I will at least do my best.

[He fiddles a moment with the device until he manages to change it to a private setting, lest someone decide to eavesdrop. It probably wouldn't matter here, so far from everything he knew, but...

His voice is soft when he speaks again.]

I have three requests, although they are related. Two of them are... of people that I am not supposed to acknowledge the existence of, so I would appreciate a measure of discretion, if it's not too much trouble.

Re: [video | private]

[despisesthegods]

I understand discretion and you have no worry of me breaking your trust. I give you my word that it will remain between the two of us.

[And from the sound of it, Styxx kept to his word with every fiber of his being.]

[li_amaranth]

Looks like I have you an idea.

Re: [Video]

[despisesthegods]

Yeah. I figured if I could help you that perhaps I could help everyone else this way too. Oh, and I sketched a couple more for you.

[He sends her pictures of the sketches but plans to give her the originals. Sketch 1. Sketch 2]

Re: [Video]

[li_amaranth]

[She perked up a bit hearing he did a few more sketches for her and once he sent them to her and she saw them...Li smiled, looking pleased and happy for once.]

They're beautiful. Thanks.

Re: [Video]

[despisesthegods]

I'm glad you like them. It's not much, but I might do a few more for you. To keep the memories alive.

[crapton_of_luck]

What's the most people you'll put in a picture?

[He might have a doozy of a request coming up.]

[despisesthegods]

I've done five before, but I can try more if you have something in mind.

[crapton_of_luck]

Twelve?

[and he sends him this picture]

I've been here for nearly a year and none of my team's shown up, I miss them lots.

[despisesthegods]

I can certainly try, though it will probably take some time to get it all right. I know the feeling well of missing someone.

[prideofhoshido]

What an amazing artist you are. Are you sure you don't want any payment..?

[Ryoma had thought about it, watched this video and finally had the courage to respond]

If you can, I..would like you to sketch someone very special to me. Someone.. who is about to--

[he took a deep breathe, this hurt himself a lot but..] ..Someone special. I don't have a picture of her, though. Would that be a problem for you?

Re: [video]

[despisesthegods]

No. I'm quite good at working of a description alone, so describe them to me and I will draw them to the best of my abilities.

Re: [video]

[prideofhoshido]

[Ryoma gulped, took a deep breathe, nodded in agreement, and closed his eyes..picturing her ]

Thank you, truly..

She..has the most beautiful, sun-soaked short hair. Messy, but it was from the battles she had fought and won valiantly. In her hair she had a dark headband that had a tail to it.

[He chuckled softly, reminiscing for the first time] Those eyes were so filled with fire, sometimes I thought I could see them turn red just like the Wyvern she rode on. -And yet..her freckles, her fair skin told a much..much fairer story. How-despite the hardships, the misfortune, she was still a person with so much hope for the future. For her people, her army..

-A-and her smile, you would have loved it. The best smirk. Anyone could tell when she was about to do something dangerous. Yet..she never failed. [pauses for a long time, wiping a tear away]

Her armor was strong, red, and beaming with so much pride. A warrior's pride.

...I'm sorry. I got carried away. How was that description?

Re: [video]

[despisesthegods]

Perfect. I'll get started on something and get back to you with it as soon as I can.
