Crystal felt a little more relaxed than she had in a while. After spending a few days painting, she felt like she was decent enough to give Acacia her best one yet. Which wasn't all that great, aside from the fact that it actually had more shape to it instead of pure abstract. She'd work on it a few more days, and hopefully by the time Christmas came along, they'd be able to not have to imagine what it looks like and just be able to see it.

It was a nice day, and spending it with her sisters -- she'd been focusing on her extracurricular activities, socializing, and school work more than she had in the past.  -- made it even better. She glanced over at her youngest sibling (the thought still sent a jolt of pain through her) and pondered the question. "I don't know, Ori." she replied, fiddling with a loose strand of hair.

"I haven't really thought about what I want to do after school's over." It was a lie. She was thinking about working in the Ministry. Specifically, she was thinking about continuing on in the classes for her to be a Auror. But she couldn't tell her sister's that. Acacia would probably be horrified that she'd been thinking about such a brutish job.

"What about you, Ori? What do you want to be after you leave school for good?"
