Who: Himeka, Tifa, and YOU
When: Throughout September & October
Where: Around the Primary Settlement
What: Questing to give gifts to the goat man
Warnings: Bad musical parodies

Keep a little fluff under my pillow for the goat man
In case he come to town
Keep a little candy in my handy for the goat man
So he will put it down
Just the mask he took from the council
On the ground
And give him all this stuff

[ Though this is surely a calling of need when a thief is in their midst, Himeka would consider no task silly or meaningless if you enjoyed it. Now, enjoying and being good at it are entirely different things, but she can at least enjoy the process even if the results. Speak for themselves.

Unfortunately.

But she is aware enough of her shortcomings when it comes to art. When he mentions the nose, she purses her lips as she tilts the mask to the side. ]

It's a little crooked, isn't it?

[ It looks like a potato. ]

Oh, would you?

[ Himeka looks up again, her tail swishing behind her with new interest. ]

I'd love to learn from an actual artist.

[ She assumes, of course, that "dabbling" is enough to make him a true blue artisan. She scoots a little too the side to make room for him to sit if he wishes, even though there is plenty otherwise. ]

[A very strange potato, at that. But Henry just tilts his head, smiling.]

Well, I don't know if I'd qualify as a "true" artist. [Still, he holds out his hands in an offer to take the mask from her, to truly look it over.] It wasn't exactly my profession back home. I guess you could say I'm just an amateur.

But there's so much free time in Solvunn. We all should pursue potential that was otherwise quashed back home, right?

["Quashed" is a rather strong word, but. It's accurate.]

[ She takes it as a show of humility for what must be some sort of latent talent. But Himeka can understand the sentiment all the same and nods in agreement. ]

We all start out as amateurs, don't we?

[ She would never go as far as to say she had a knack for cooking. Even in the early onset, it took a lot of practice, determination, and undercooked loaves to get it right. ]

Though I suppose anyone who had a passing interest in farming will be doing well now.

[ Her gaze flickers back down to the "mask". ]

I was thinking it would feel more comfortable with a mask of something familiar. So I tried to make it look like a goat.
