[ And he ate it early again!! Well, that's not too surprising anyway. ]
Nope. Both it is. But whatever. Your questionable history of waiting outside of people's rooms without their permission can wait, I guess.
[ In favor of candy.
She doesn't outright say to come in, but she holds open the door to her (formerly their) apartment and holds her arm out in the direction of the living room. The apartment itself has 3 rooms too many for a tiny seraph to live in, and it looks homelier than one would expect of her. Although she forwent many material things while living up on Rayfalke, the former residents of their home decided that they could spruce up the place a bit. There are pieces of modern furniture and appliances (coming from fantasy JRPGland makes you think all these things are so!! cool!!!) but also odds and ends laying around, the ones she could never bring herself to clean up.
Sorey and Mikleo's books, some dogeared and some not, but all never to be returned to the library. Lailah's odds and ends, origami and paper slips with drawings and writing on them. They all just kind of accepted Alisha would be the one with the best sense of interior decoration (given everyone else's backgrounds...), so the style of furnishing is all hers. Prim and proper, but not in an overbearing way. Like the wind, Dezel's left little trace of himself, save for his hat in his bedroom (and yes, he had an entire bedroom to himself). Lastly, Rose's trinkets, collected from her job as a merchant or just from window shopping at all the new things she wanted to try out. Quality assured from a girl with a merchant's eye, of course. ]
[ Jaune takes in all the decorations around him, sort of getting the sense that a lot more people lived here than he knew. He was friends with Alisha and Sorey, but they never really visited each other, so this is his first time here.
He hands Edna the half-eaten box and glances at Lailah's art on the wall. ]
Nah. That's Lailah's work. The origami's her work too. She's the one right here, with the long hair.
[ Edna points to a part of the drawing, and there is indeed a woman with very, very long hair, drawn in a somewhat cartoonish style. The rest of the characters in the drawing are also drawn in a similarly cartoonish style, with varying exaggerated expressions on their faces (like Mikleo's exasperation, or Dezel's frumpy grumpiness, complete with shark teeth). Jaune will be able to recognize Alisha and Sorey, at the very least, both with smiles on their faces. ]
...That's right. Not all at the same time, but most of them.
[ It's something she's been thinking about since their encounter in the church, seeing him pore over the names of those who have left. He had people he wanted to remember too, right? At least he remembers. She won't say it out loud, but she appreciates people who can remember, good times and bad, even if that includes Jaune. ]
[ Jaune has to wonder if Edna feels like the way she did when she lived on that mountain for... how many years was it again? Either way, it's a long time to not want to be lonely any longer.
He tilts his head, examining the wall further. These are all reminders of people who are gone, but none of whom are still here for her. ]
[ Edna deliberates for a bit as she pops a chocolate in her mouth and chews on it. ]
Fine, but it better not be anything vulgar.
[ Some lighthearted jabs to balance out the somewhat weighty mood. She actually does somewhat trust Jaune to be respectful in a context like this (given that she knows that he has people he misses too), but still.
she might actually punch him with giant's strength if he draws dickbutt tho, fyi ]
[ Jaune finds a little space for his masterpiece and scribbles it really fast, like a speedpainter except it would get zero views on YouTube. When he steps back, his artwork is revealed. ]
She remembers hanging out with him in that manner. Or well, Jaune was the one literally hanging. Small moments like that can remind her of people she still has here... She thinks she understands what Jaune is trying to convey, and she's touched. (But will never admit it.)
This is Edna, so the most she can offer is a verbal barb as usual...but with no venom and some of a smile this time around. A faint smile, though. ]
And you're even younger than I am, and actually did the deed. What does that say about you?
[ Granted, she already knows that her young appearance saying all these crude things can make people double-take, which is not a problem, in her opinion. ]
