[Yeah. Yeah, Blade feels that all too well. He doesn't want to get caught off-guard by anyone thinking he's an easy target.]
Mhm~ It was something an old friend suggested when I was trying to figure out what to do with my free time. He said it was sad that I just sat around doing nothing when we weren't on missions.
[It really was sad. His early days of learning to be a person were not easy.]
Sculpting takes strength, but also finesse, which I had to learn though lots and lots of practice!
[ Anaxagoras can easily understand where this person was coming from. Especially if the mind had not been given anything to enrich itself with - or to find joy in. It's not strange to imagine, but... ]
Hobbies often enrich people's lives, for one reason or another.
It is simply a fact of life; perhaps because it grants a person the ability to grow, to be one more catalyst that allows them to become more than simply a singular purpose. Thus, it was clear your friend had the right of it.

Date: 2025-11-09 06:32 am (UTC)That's correct.
Were you looking to do the same? Or...does it bother you?
[ Bears worth asking, just in case. Given everything that's happened, just about anything seems possible. ]

While we're at it, what were you trying to find?

...maybe my sculpting tools if I can find them.

Lately that has been Darling~

[ Anaxagoras doesn't consider himself an 'artist' per say, but...he also isn't surprised that he's decided on who he has for the sculpture. ]
Did you end up collecting other hobbies?
