"Really? Thanks," Automne said, taking the sketchbook carefully, making sure not to crinkle the pages as she walked. The pencil drawing on the first page caught her eye, a black and white shaded recreation of the ocean. Although she wasn't really an artsy person, as she flipped through some more pages the skill in which even these sketches had been done was really impressive. Fascinating - they were all either drawings of animals or really nice scenery.

"Hey, these are really good, you know?" Automne said, making sure to voice her approval of the images. She knew a lot of artists were nervous when it came to other people's appraisal of their creations, and that positive feedback was a really good motivator to keep drawing.

"I don't know much about drawing, but this is really well done. Nowadays I know most artists paint digitally." Automne's friends, the ones she'd made before Beacon, had convinced her to make a tumblr account, so she had some experience in viewing art. She handed the sketchbook back to Cyzarine.

"Have you ever tried drawing people? I just noticed that none of these pictures have people in them. That's really cool though. I have zero artistic talent, but these are really good even if they're just sketches." The fox looked up at Cyzarine, with the expression of someone trying not to laugh. She exhaled and looked down again.

"Sorry, it's just that... when we first met I never would have thought that you were an artsy kind of person. It's reassuring."
