[So Lyle clearly doesn't have enough to do with his life because tonight he decides to post. So it is focused on him at the moment, but there are some rather large, fairly nondescript boxes behind]

I don't know why I didn't think of this before really. I was trying to think of a way to keep one of my pets entertained since you know, that can be hard. Well, I think I have managed to entertain all of them at the same time. Honest opinions. Don't worry, I can take it.

[Now he turns the video towards what he's been working on. The video is now showing a rather large aquarium sitting in the corner of the room. Only there's no fish. There's a porg in the aquarium, swimming around almost oblivious before diving down like it was trying to find something. A dachshund and what looked like a basketball seemed to be watching it. There's also a staircase leading up the aquarium so the porg could get in and out]

I also have no idea what to do with the rest of these boxes. There's too many to not do something with.

[ooc: this is Lyle without nicotine and trying to find something to occupy himself. Also action available for anyone who would be at the Celestial Being house]

I'll clean up whatever mess I make. I promise.

[Okay, good, at least he's going to humor Lyle and let him make his cardboard creation. At least if it was bad, Lyle was probably going to throw it out anyway because it was more busy work than anything else]

I was thinking trying to make it into a Gundam... or a reasonable facsimile there of.

[vedaandme]

A box Gundam.

[Tieria frowned a bit.]

But, would it not just look like a box?

[holds_up_walls]

You can cut boxes and put the back together. I don't have to use them exactly as they are.

[Geeze, Tieria, where's you creativ- never mind]

[vedaandme]

[Geeze, Lyle. You should know Tieria by now.]

But that would likely just make more of a mess.

[holds_up_walls]

For a bit. But then it gets put together.

Let's say this. If you don't approve of what I make, it'll get thrown out.

[vedaandme]

[Tieria almost huffed a little, but then nodded.]

Alright. Fine.

I will wait and see where this goes.

[holds_up_walls]

You can't tell me you wouldn't make something if you had the chance.

[Go on... tell him]

[vedaandme]

I can tell you that. I would not make something if I had the chance. Why would that be so hard to say?

[Sorry, Lyle.]

[holds_up_walls]

Okay, that wasn't actually about the difficulty of the phrase to say, but I guess that answers my question still. Why not?

[vedaandme]

Because I do not see the point in it. What do you hope to achieve?

[holds_up_walls]

It's therapeutic. I mean just turning this- [He waved his hand at the boxes] in to something else is creative and if you have a design in mind before you start, a practice in problem solving.

[vedaandme]

[Well... when he put it that way.]

A practice in problem solving.

Do you have a design idea, yet?

[holds_up_walls]

I was thinking I was kind of going to try and make it look like a Gundam... or maybe more of a bulky suit like you be used to move something. Might be amusing to make it so Kara could sit in it.

[He'd at least thought about it that much]

[vedaandme]

You would have to add strength to it if you want the porg to be able to sit inside it.

[Tieria studied the boxes for a moment.]

I do not believe it is currently strong enough on its own.

[holds_up_walls]

Yeah I think so. I mean Kara's not very big, but at the moment, yeah, it's not going to last very long. Also might need to put a plastic lining in it so if Kara gets in while wet, it won't disintegrate.

[See? He's thought about this at least somewhat]

[vedaandme]

[Tieria nodded. He appreciated the forethought of Kara being wet while in the boxes, as soggy cardboard was a mess to clean up.]

So, you have already somewhat thought this through.

[There was probably no stopping this, was there?]

[holds_up_walls]

[Yeah, Lyle doesn't want to clean up soggy cardboard since that's of course going to fall to him because he made it. And Kara was a water bird, so seen currently enjoying his fish tank]

Yeah, at least somewhat. It'll take more thought. But it won't all sit out in the living room until then. I'll bring them out when I need them.

[Nope, not stopping, but Lyle's not going to make Tieria constantly look at a pile of boxes]

[vedaandme]

[That did it. Tieria nodded.]

As long as it will not be taking up the entire living area, then fine. I am curious about how this will work out.

[holds_up_walls]

No it will not take up the entire living space. You'll eventually see how it works out, whether the cardboard structure survives or not.

[He hopes it does, but it is cardboard after all]

[vedaandme]

Well... if you need any assistance, perhaps I can help.

[There... an olive branch?]

[holds_up_walls]

[Lyle was silent for a moment, perhaps in stunned silence at hearing Tieria offer to help then a smile crossed his face]

Thanks. I'll let you know.

[vedaandme]

[Tieria nodded, and then turned to leave Lyle to his... planning.]
