[has taken off his coat and checks it over. looks rather disappointed to find a slash down the side]

My coat... [sighs] Most priests don't have swords, you know. Well, all right. Some priests do. Just it isn't exactly good for them to bang on about peace and then try to run me through.

[considers silently for a moment] Erm, Lucia, this isn't as bad as it sounds. You're not in trouble, really.

[Smiles and takes it all, sitting down to mend it] This shouldn't take long.

[sits down next to him] Knack for sewing, eh?

I made most of my own clothing. Kiki also tends to ruin his at an alarming rate.

Hm? Kiki?

My student. He's eight, and has far too much energy sometimes.

[grins] Sounds like a normal boy.

And one that I'm very proud to call mine.

You take care of him, then?

I do. I took him in when he was an infant. Goodness, he couldn't have been more than a few weeks old when I found him...[his hands pause as his mind wanders down memory lane]

[laughs and smiles] You sound like a parent. 'They grow so fast' and all.

[Smiles as well} I suppose I am, in a way, though I feel more like an older brother - I'm only twelve years his senior.

Twelve years? That's not too bad, really.

I suppose not. Still, I was scared to death that I would end up killing him by accident.

Ah, Here's your coat. Remind me, and I'll teach you to sew properly sometime.

Odd fear to have. [takes coat and ~~totally snuggles into it~~ shrugs it back on] Brilliant! I might just have to learn sometime. It'd be a shame if something happened to his coat after all it's been through.

I was barely out of my own childhood. I was still unsure of how to take care of myself, let alone an infant.

Sentimental value?
