[ Huh.

Well, she has no idea who this is, but she'll text back. ]


I think orange and red would be better!
fanstheflames: (Shorty fire burning on the dance floor)

Because doesn't it just make you think about fire? Fierce and powerful and fast!

That sort of thing.

Okay, so... what about a compromise? Green and red would just be like Christmas, but you could do purple and red and I think it would still look amazing!

[ Tsuruno still has no idea who this is, but anyone who wants to dedicate at least part of something to their family is fine by her. ]

Purple and red!! I can't wait to see it!

You'll show me, right?
fanstheflames: (My pocket started tickling)

[personal profile] fanstheflames 2020-11-29 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure, I don't mind!

But you should probably know, I think you've been texting the wrong number this whole time.

Well, yeah. Aren't all friends strangers at first?
I was curious to see how things would go.


[ And now she knows he loves his uncle, that's nice! ]

[personal profile] fanstheflames 2020-11-29 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Then I'd defeat you, of course!

[ Duh. ]
fanstheflames: (Somebody call 911)

[personal profile] fanstheflames 2020-11-30 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
What kind of evil scheme involves color choice?

And I refuse to be defeated by purple and red!!
fanstheflames: (Need to blow that crazy flame away)

Someone who's not a villain!

[personal profile] fanstheflames 2020-11-30 01:35 pm (UTC)(link)
I have a face AND a name! It's Tsuruno and for such a good non-villainy thing like that, I'll definitely make an appearance!
Don't worry, with my help, it'll be the mightiest street art of all!
fanstheflames: (One in every hundred years)

Miles, got it! I'll be there soon!

[ Tsuruno, for all of her exuberance, is pretty fairly competent once she puts her mind to something-- it doesn't take long to toss on a pair of old overalls and find this site, just a teenage girl with one long side ponytail trotting his way and glancing from side to side with an eager expression. ]

Miles!

[ Tsuruno brakes quickly, windmilling as she rocks forward, then back onto her heels. For all that she seems to have forgotten a scarf or a hat, cheeks flushed from the winter chill, she still looks as though she's in good spirits and at the very least, she has a jacket (unzipped). ]

I'm here to work! Where should I go?
fanstheflames: (She'll be on covers over the world)

[personal profile] fanstheflames 2020-12-01 01:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I've never seen a mural before, but I always thought that was a really cool way to show art to the public!

[ So she's all for endorsing it. ]

But also I really love trying things and helping out! I can't even feel the cold when I'm all fired up!

[ How fortuitous, that he'd accidentally texted her instead. ]

[ He'd better believe he snagged himself a new friend. Tsuruno doesn't know how not to befriend people, whether they want her to or not.

She nods amicably to indicate that yes, she'll let him know if she gets cold (which she doesn't think will happen, she'll just paint vigorously) and bounces in place. ]


I wonder if I could convince Dad to let me do something like this for the restaurant...

[ But then she gives her head a quick shake and offers Miles a grin. ]

I'm gonna grab the purple, then! I'll help fill in our newfound friendship!

[ And. You know. The flower. ]
fanstheflames: (That body is a masterpiece)

[personal profile] fanstheflames 2020-12-03 01:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ The purple is hers now and she's lugging it closer to the flower, pausing to grin at him over her shoulder. ]

Yeah, it's a Chinese restaurant! It's been in our family for ages but I think we'd get a lot more clientele if we spiced up the outside, too.
fanstheflames: (Need to blow that crazy flame away)

[personal profile] fanstheflames 2020-12-07 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think he will! I'm usually the one who comes up with ways to bring customers in, anyway, so I think he's got enough faith in my methods by now.

[ Well. The restaurant is still open, anyway. But Tsuruno has always fought tooth and nail to make that happen and she huffs emphatically now as she begins adding more violet to the flower. ]

Well, I did dress up as a reindeer to promote our Christmas menu once... but also things like organizing scavenger hunts and giving coupons to our restaurant as prizes! Or yelling from the rooftops that it's buy one meal, get one free! Or--

[ Yes. ]
