LIGHTS GO OUT AND ALL I SEE—
being the oldest daughter to four siblings lilja often played as a pseudo-mother for them as raziel was absent. perhaps not so much as art... though she did like caring for the triplets mostly. in that time she had learned valuable skills such as communication, patience, and creativity to prevent boredom. gods know how often they would wander off because they were bored. sewing was one of the skills that lilja had picked up on briefly when trying to build shelters or 'forts' as they liked to call them. stringing weeds and stems with sticks together and creating little huts for all three of them.
the same could be applied to a needle and thread, right? hopefully.
"i may know a little. what are you having trouble with?" lilja's tone was soft as she came toward the girl, seeing the frustration in her expression. "is it balancing the needle, or counting the stitches?"
—ARE THOSE EYES, A WOLVERINE
