The knot in her chest relaxed into an easy warmth, they were being authentic! She still pulled her paws, careful of her leg, under her body to keep them from frantically moving about with the nervous energy. Yes, she DID draw that and it felt so strange and exhilarating to show them!

She couldn't contain her mirth as they said they would kiss it goodnight. Her giggles erupted and she was forced to pull her paw out from under her to cover her nose and mouth to help it subside. Would Spider consider giving someone else a kiss every now and then... maybe? The thought completely surprised her and she blushed all the way up to her ears as she coiled ever tighter into herself.

"Oh of course! I honestly don't remember how I learned." She said, not not thinking about how close Spider was. They were only a few seasons apart in age, weren't they? She was glad for the distraction!

"Here! I just grab this charcoal in my paw, I typically hold it between two toes here and use my shoulder for the big strokes, and my elbow and wrist for some of the smaller marks." She said, demonstrating her technique and rolling a piece over to them.
"I was alone a lot, and this was how I passed the time and made discoveries. I'd forget everything if I didn't mark it down somehow." She mentioned.
