[In the early hours of the morning, what people will see over their SFCs is a very large room that takes on the appearance of an art studio. Despite the many artistic supplies spread in various locations, the room does house a single man in it. This man is sitting in front of a canvas that doesn't have much on it, yet he's staring very intently at the canvas before setting the brush down. What can be seen is a painting of three hearts; one white, one black, and one gray. After a few moments of staring at his creation, he picks up the SFC which was already switched on prior to him painting this odd picture, the expression on his face rather neutral. Not happy or sad, simply neutral.]

Do call me curious dear Vatheon, but this is something I have been pondering for some time now. Why should we celebrate holidays we don't celebrate back home? Certainly some have been for the amusement of it, but take for instance this one we currently celebrated. For those who don't believe in love, a holiday entirely dedicated to it is seen as ridiculous. But that can be said of all people who don't believe in certain holidays, doesn't it?

Though this holiday especially can also arouse questions within us, particularly to matters of the heart as that seems to be its theme. A few I can think of are: Is there such a thing as true happiness or love? Is the feeling truly there or not? Can the supposed happiness and love gained with another who said they felt the same remain always? Or will it fade away like sand being washed away by the ocean?

Winespring Inn? I'll have to come by sometime to see the place, I don't think I've ever been inside of it before.

Well, you could help me finish moving the rest of my stuff, if you wanted...

[Lloyd trails off, half teasing, half hopeful.]

What else do you have left, Lloyd?

[Because really, it's been awhile since he's been at the apartment. He forgot half of what you had.]

Some of the stuff I've carved, a few of my tools, and...

[He lists off a few other things.]

It's not a lot. Just enough that I wouldn't mind some extra help.

I'm not about to turn you down, Lloyd. After all you did for me, I suppose I do owe you.

Hey, don't do it just because you owe me. I'd rather you did it just because we're friends. We could go on all day about who owes who what. Or, well, we could if we wanted to. That sounds pretty boring to me.

Friends huh? [That's still hard for him to swallow.] Yeah, we're friends. When do you want me to come over?

[Was there ever any question? Not in Lloyd's mind.] When's good for you?

I'm free most of the time, aside from the host club.

How about tomorrow, then? Maybe a little before lunch? Or would after lunch work better for you?

That's fine. I'll be over to the old place by then.

All right. See you tomorrow, then!
