I don't know what you're talking about.

Legit strategy right here!

Man... guess you took this round, too, then.

We'll call this one a draw. [ flops back onto the mattress pile. ]

[Flops back next to her.]

Good enough for me.

[After a beat of staring up at the ceiling, he picks the tic tac toe paper back up -starts folding it.]

[ just watches him fold it curiously. ]

[It takes him a bit - the paper's an odd size - but before long he hands her over a paper tic tac toe crane.]

...!

[ stares at it and smiles. ]

You have to teach me how to do this! Can you make any other stuff?

[ this is going in her room! ]

I got a couple more tricks up my sleeve.

[ brb grabbing more paper. ]

Teach me, Sensei.

You wanna do it with for real origami paper? I got some in my room.

...sure! That'll probably make it easier, since I'm going to need all the help I can get.

Hey, you totally got this. I got faith in you.

[Goes to snag the origami paper and plops it between them. There are a whole bunch of different eye-catching patterns in bright, bold styles.]

You wanna start with the crane?

That makes one of us.

[ chuckles, bouncing up and down a bit when he comes back with all the paper. she's going to look for something pink. ]

Sure! I'm ready to learn~!

[There's probably some pink in there! He snags one of the orange ones off the top for himself.]

Then let's do this.

First you just gotta fold it in half, like this. Then you go over it with your nail.

[ she nods and carefully folds the paper in half, creasing it with her nail. ]

Simple enough.

[He starts walking her through the rest of it, step by, talking through it and showing her at the same time.]

[ she's going to make each of the folds carefully, since she doesn't want to mess up. ]

What's the craziest thing you can make?

I can do a pretty badass dragon.

Got a fancy basket that's pretty good, too.

For real?! Do you have one you can show me? I want to see this beast!

Once I get the hang of this crane we should totally change gears to dragon. I'm totally ready, ...probably.

Yeah, sure. Let's finish up the crane and I'll go run and grab the drgaon.

Sure!

[ she's going to follow his instructions to a t and then present her crane once she's finished. ]

How's she look?

Dude - you're a natural!

I had the best teacher in the world, so it only makes sense that it came out looking awesome.

[Offers his fist for a fistbump.]

Make 999 more of em and you get a wish.

[ fistbump! ]

...wait, for real?

[ stares at the little crane. ]
