Honestly, it was like showing his mother something funny and she turned it into a lecture but he wasn't even listening to her words anymore. Instead, he turned around and began dragging a crate closer to him before he took his seat. Was she done?

"I know they're just stick-figures. It was a joke" he said as he looked at the figure that was supposed to be Lisa. A big smile. Yeah that was definitely her. "If that's Lisa then who are those?" he asked while pointing at the others.


Daniel did not laugh. Hmph. But he did look annoyed. And since Ash loved to get reactions out of people, that was almost just as good. She could still laugh without him. She could laugh alone.

"If it's a joke, then shouldn't it be funny? I'm not laughing. You're not laughing. Well... I am laughing, but I'm not laughing at your joke. You're not laughing though. You look rather annoyed." She laughed internally for his benefit.

"This one's Minjae. This one's Claudine. This one's Upstead. Hmmm..." She sat back down for a moment, then drew a stick figure with a slight frown holding a book. "There. That's you." She drew another stick figure surrounded by fire, looking dejected. "And that's me." She leaned against the door. "It's a whole universe of tiny stick figure people." She drew a tiny stick figure with a giant head and crossed it out a bunch of times, then punched whole through the paper around it. "That's Rosier." A shadow of a stick figure, tiny and barely visible. "My brother." A smiling stick figure standing on the inside of the flames around Ash. "Theodore." Another crossed out stick figure. "Mother." And a figure nearby it with no expression at all. "Father." A REALLY tiny stick figure separated from the rest. "...And my other brother. Nearly forgot him." A stick figure standing next to a dragon(?). "And Devin. Sorry Devin." A pair of stick figures holding hands. "How could I forget Dustin and Alex?" And finally, a couple of mean looking stick figures that she did not name aloud. "Have I forgotten someone important?" She tossed her pencil in the air and caught it. Daniel was maybe wrong about the stick figures, actually. They weren't all that stupid. He should try drawing distinct people in stick figures. Then they could see about artistic talent.
