A Stitch In Time Saves Nine [Open]

Kaitlyn needed to find some paper, she had drawn on all of hers and she wasn't sure when she'd be able to get a new sketch pad. The lady had said that the art room should have everything she needed to draw stuff. She walked in quickly her words a jumbled mess in a language that was easily identifiable as french. she didn't know that someone was in the room with her. In fact she had no idea that anyone was in the Art department.

she had rummaged through the stuff and finally found a pack of sketch pads and jumped down from the counter she was on. Turning around she spotted another kid "Oh! Hi..uhm I didn't know this room was occupied" She said nervously setting down her sketch pad to tug at one of the bows in her hair.

@"A M E N O"

Kaitlyn watched with wide eyes as she saw him prick his finger. She felt like she had caused it and she felt horrible. Going through her bag, she found a bandaid with rainbows on it, it was her favorite color. She handed him the bandage with an apologetic smile "Je suis désolé...uhm..Er... I'm Sorry?" she said testing out her english. She was told that not many people spoke french on the island by the lady who checked in on her. Dorm parent?? Or whatever, she was still getting used to the things on the island. She had so much freedom and she wasn't used to it.

"oh I'm Kaitlyn, nice too meet you" She said slowly trying to make sure she got all syllables right. "...Wait did you Say Cherry or Terry?" she asked confused, perhaps she had heard him wrong. He seemed to have an accent also...did that mean he was from a different place too? She hoped so, she hated feeling like she was the odd one out. So many people in her class seemed normal and had friends they've known forever and she just didn't seem to fit in. Of course she drew her dinosaur and people wanted to be her friend but like.....that wasn't real friendship.

"Uhm...are you making a doll?" she asked looking at the materials in his hand. she liked playing dolls, maybe they could play with dolls together.

@"A M E N O"

Kaitlyn set the bandaid on the table near them just in case the boy wanted it. "Oh that's a cool name" She said smiling instantly perking up since the boy still wanted to talk to her. Especially since he seemed busy, not many kids liked talking to her. Maybe it was because she was new to the island and she hadn't made many friends. She had hoped that things would be different, she was supposed to fit in on the island and while she did see different people she hadn't quite found a friend she could talk to and play with.

"What for?? What's a ritual doll?? Is it like a regular doll and you can play make-believe with it?" she asked her head tilted still and looking at the door with a confused face, it didn't look like any of the dolls she had seen on t.v or drew or had before. it looked more like Fluffski would look if she had sewn it together. Though she had to admit that the doll was pretty cool looking and the fact that he could sew was even cooler.

@"A M E N O"

Kaitlyn was glad that he took the doll, it was a burden off her shoulders. She felt responsible for him pricking his finger. She was sure that it hurt, the needle looked kind a sharp especially since it was a sewing needle. She made a mental note to be less surprising when entering the room, so that this didn't happen again.


"Oh you can communicate with spirits..and do rituals..isn't the voo -something? I've heard of it before" She didn't want to say that she had heard bad things, the boy seemed nice and she had people call her evil before because of what she could do. It wasn't the boy's fault if he was good a voodoo. People just had gifts and were special, and it wasn't up for people for to judge.

"Oh, Hmm then it wouldn't be a good Idea to play make believe with them. So what do the rituals do? I mean do the dolls walk?" She asked curiously, she had never met a kid that could do cool things and was willing to talk to her.

@"A M E N O"

Kaitlyn nodded, she had never met a person with a different religion than her. She found this absolutely incredible, that the island housed people different than normal people. Was it normal where he came from to.have that religion? That was so cool.


"Oh, that make sense, at least sense about why you shouldn't play with them. Spirits like cornbread? I never that, are the spirits grown up spirits? I thought only grown ups smoked Cigarettes " she asked tilting her head. She was staring at Thierry with big curious eyes. He was so Fascinating
