Ninth Link

[From the look of things when the feed opens, one of Namine's Spirits is holding it--probably Batty. Namine herself is putting the finishing touches on a picture. It's a big one, too, drawn on one of the walls of a building in the fourth district. Anyone who cares to look closely will probably find themselves in it, sometimes more than once. It looks like Namine's drawn a picture of everyone with their friends, and not just those they knew from home, but those they've made here as well. People not present in the Real of Sleep are in it, too--Sora's drawn with Riku and Kairi and Donald and Goofy, for example.

Finally she looks up, and, oh dear, it looks like she didn't know she was on camera.]

You were recording?

[Batty chitters what is probably a 'yes'. It's pretty~ She was gonna show everyone anyway, right?

Namine sighs, then smiles slightly.]

After Nepeta showed us her, um, 'shipping wall' someone suggested I start a friendship wall. So I drew everyone with their friends...at least I think I managed to.

[Namine tilts her head in thought.]

I think I could. Are there some of your friends you'd like me to add?

[motorvation]

Yes, tw- three in particular. [She can't forget Tenzin, after all. Lin would never let her live it down.]

[colorbymemory]

[Namine reaches for a nearby sketchbook and crayons.]

Okay. Would you describe them for me?

[motorvation]

[She waits a moment for Naminé to get settled, then begins describing Korra, Tenzin, and Mako. She really doesn't wish him ill, even if being around him is a little uncomfortable, and he's Bolin's brother. Of course they can't leave him out.]

[colorbymemory]

[It takes a few moments, but Namine sketches as best she can according to Asami's description.]

Is this about right?

[She holds the sketchbook so Asami can see it.]

[motorvation]

[She studies the sketches, as closely as the communicator will allow.]

Tenzin needs to be just a little taller, and Korra's hair is a little longer - but otherwise, that's very good.

[colorbymemory]

[This would be so much easier in person.

Namine nods and makes some adjustments.]

Thank you. Is this better?

[motorvation]

[Probably, but this is still working pretty well. When Naminé turns the paper around again, there's an obvious smile - all their friends, together again.]

Yes. That's perfect.

[colorbymemory]

Great! I'll add them as soon as I can.

[Namine smiles back. Even if it's not in person, at least everyone can be with their friends like this.]

[motorvation]

Thank you. I'm know Bolin and Chief Beifong will be glad to see them.

[And maybe one day they can add Pema and the children in, too.]

[colorbymemory]

You're welcome. I hope they like it.

[Just say the word and she will be glad to.]

[motorvation]

I know they will.
