[This is pretty close to how I imagine Above's writing is like. Messy, thick-marker stuff, but legible. Though she can fit more letters per line.]

[There's a blot on the paper. She wants to thank the people who watched her glass cocoon, but... Anyway.]


So anyone heard of a nothlit before?  And

Ah, be careful what you say~ You'll give yourself away~ and then you won't live to see tomorrow.

Good start! But I'm a little distinctive, so I'd need a trench coat, too. Maybe a latex mask.

Okay. Look down. Pay attention.

[The island is partly covered by asphalt, with the painted pattern of parking spaces. On top of that, though, is an abstract tangle of lines in dark purple and red and orange, forming a chaotic pattern which covers pretty nearly the whole thing.]

[It's inelegant, but there's a charm to it. Here and there a pattern like her tag is repeated.]

Hm, I bet the tailor would have a lot of fun sewing a trenchcoat that'd fit you!

[She twists slightly to look down at the island, and her eyes go wide. Krile doesn't know much about art, and so the 'graffiti' on the island looks random to her.

And she's never seen this place up-close before, either. It looks like someone picked up part of one of the modern cities like Hollywood or Tokyo and plunked it down here.

But she tries to focus on the paint job... is this something Above just found? Wait, there's some kind of pattern.]


I think I can see that... that symbol you sign in the journal sometimes. Did the Sphere do this?

[That would be pretty creepy if it did. But initially she has a hard time thinking of Above with a paintbrush, until she remembers--kind of a duh moment--that she writes in the journals.]

Nah, they'd just need to get clever with a tent.

[Above banks over it.]

The yellow squares, yeah, and the blacktop. The rest was me.

[Krile's eyes widen as Above confirms that the paint is her own work.]

Really? Gosh! [She sounds genuinely impressed.] Where'd you get all the paint--how long did this take you to do? And how'd you do it?

[Said teasingly, mock-serious.] I can't give away all my secrets! That would be telling!

But it's mostly mashed fruit stuff. It's growing everywhere! I was inspired.

[She giggles.] Oh, right! Secret Agent Quetz's confidential painting techniques.

You really used the fruit, though? Wow! I know it's colorful, but I had no idea it could be used for this kind of thing.

Ancient ones, passed down by my foremothers, taught in secret firelight ceremonies... or something.

There's other stuff in it too. Filler. A little sawdust - you can see some of it there in the circles. [Possibly she can't - in daylight, Above's vision is somewhat better than a human's, though not astoundingly so.]

It was fun. I don't think I'll ever get that much to work with again.
