Before... I don't think I was that different from how I am now. Personality-wise, that is. But I just graduated college, so I was just figuring out how to freelance when I wasn't busy with the usual stuff.
[ ponta can look! the page they've been drawing has some small sketches of their team, along with some new designs for the storybook cafe, including merch, new cup sleeves, and cute treats like macarons. ]
I thought so. Maybe that's why it was so easy to get used to? That, and I already wear costumes a lot. It's ffun!
[ Ponta whistles in appreciation at the sketches. Both because they're cute and because it's a relief to see that Fox really does seem to care for all of them. ]
[ they look pleased! art is meant to be shared, even if it's just a sketch or two. ]
All kinds! Buuuut I don't really design them - I have a friend back home who's all about fashion and costume design! I've helped him a couple of times, but he usually doesn't need it.
No worries! It's only if you wanna. [ moving on, hopefully to something that will make ponta more comfortable: ] But for now...
[ they turn to a different page in their sketchbook. one of the sketches glows aquamarine for just a moment, and out comes a fox-shaped macaron in their color. ]
What do you think of this? Cute, or would it be too much work for the staff day-to-day? I don't want to make it too hard for them.

[ Though who knows what insane details there are that Fox would think of as normal for their world... ]
What was your job?
no subject
I'm an artist. [ holds up the sketchbook. ] I was doing freelance professionally, but I design posters and update websites pretty often, too.

That's super neat! A creative power really suits you then!

What kind of costumes? I bet you designed your own, with how much work you're putting into the café aesthetic.

[ Fox is becoming a whole lot more human to him through this conversation, which is probably a good thing. ]
You probably wanna get back to your old friends too, huh?
no subject
But yeah, 'course I do. We all have people to get back to, don't we? I bet you do, too.

[ Facebook status: it's complicated. ]
Not sure if they want to see me right now.
no subject
Do you want to talk about it? Your friends, or the things you miss about your world?
no subject
Not right now, but thanks for the offer! Maybe I'll take you up on it later.
