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. ]

That's the story, anyway. Pretty sure it's just something they tell kids to make em feel better.

Heh, it's probably not true, but it's still kind of... cute...

Maybe we can work toward it together? Like, I don't know if we'd still get a wish, but... [ she shrugs, smiling down at the crane. ]
