[ They're either yellow or red depending on which color of yarn this pig goes for in another thread, because Chu-Chu doesn't look good in blue and she was only getting one thing of yarn for her multiple projects. So, not necessarily Minato's color, but! They're nice! ]
Really? I'm happy to hear it, then. Anyway, it was nice to have something to work on to take my mind off of things.
[ Oh, well, score. And congratulations on sharing your color sense with Chu-Chu. ]
Most of the options available to us here really aren't very good for that in the first place... And the longer we're here, the more places we'll end up associating with negative things, I imagine.
[ She can knit you a scarf that looks like his tie! ]
It does seem a little strange... Maybe this was just the first thing that came to mind when they decided to use the snowstorm as an excuse to keep everyone trapped here?
[ The staff does seem... not particularly imaginative, and not exactly in tune with human cultural expectations. ]
[So much happened this week--this weekend, even just today, that eventually Minato finds himself wandering. He can't help it. There's a lot on his mind, and a lot to think about. Eventually, too, his feet bring him over towards where he can hear the faint notes of a song played on the piano--
When he realizes it's Anthy playing in the music room, he's quiet, though he does step in to respectfully listen.
There's no need to interrupt when she's playing, after all.]
[ Anthy does glance up for an instant when Minato steps inside, whether it's because she heard the sound of the door or felt the slight shift of the air in the room. But she waits until she's done with the song she's playing to give any real acknowledgment of his presence -- it seems like they've already silently agreed on this anyway.
It's not a long song, though, and shortly after, she raises her fingers from the keys and her foot from the pedal and looks back up toward him. ]
[It's nice to just stand there and listen to the music for awhile. After everything that's happened... it's nice to just exist.
Her words...take him a bit off-guard, though.]
Oh... um, thanks, I think.
[He's not sure how to respond to that--he didn't really do anything, after all. Whether by fate or chance or Akira and Roxas and Cinque all banding together, he's still here, but it certainly was by no effort of his own.]
Even if it wasn't your own doing, coming out of all that alive is something worthy of celebration, I think.
[ Especially given how close he came... She probably would have felt a little guilty if he'd really been executed after the points she'd tried to argue with Akira, even if Minato hadn't been the one she'd voted for herself. ]
Thank you. One of my schoolmates is a lot better at it than I am, though... He even wrote some of his own music.
[It feels a little self-centered to...what, agree with it? So he just smiles a little in gratitude, bowing his head, and focuses on the rest.]
Composition, huh... that's impressive, you're right. I love music a lot, but I can't say I've ever really learned how to play an instrument like this or compose.

week 2 - idk thursday afternoon or something
knock knock
Though then she remembers the doors are soundproof, so maybe she needs to knock a little harder...
...
KNOCK KNOCK ]
no subject
Either way, the louder knock wakes him up! He's up and wandering over to the door, rubbing at an eye, and... he blinks as he opens it.]
Oh... Anthy-san?
no subject
Ah, I'm sorry, were you sleeping?
no subject
[Minato waves back to Chu-Chu, because honestly... how do you not...]
... What can I do for you?
no subject
[ She offers the small paper bag, tied with a blue ribbon. ]
You probably got some from the shop already, so if you say you don't need these now, I won't be disappointed.
no subject
[He takes the bag tentatively, opening it up to look.
...!!]
You didn't have to go through the effort, Anthy-san, but... these look amazing, honestly. I'm excited to wear them.
[Home made is much better than storebought anyway...!!]
no subject
Really? I'm happy to hear it, then. Anyway, it was nice to have something to work on to take my mind off of things.
no subject
Yeah, I definitely understand that... at a certain point, it's pretty easy to run out of things to do, even in a resort like this.
[Especially when, like. You're stuck there. Even with murder hanging over their heads.]
no subject
Most of the options available to us here really aren't very good for that in the first place... And the longer we're here, the more places we'll end up associating with negative things, I imagine.
no subject
Yeah... I think you're right about that.
[Which is not at all fun to think about.]
Speaking of...don't you think it's weird that they picked a place like this for all of this? A winter resort is kind of...
[... tonally inappropriate?]

[A soft snort.]
It feels...even more lackadaisical that way, though.

You play beautifully, Anthy-san.

So it's all pretty amazing to me.
