"You too," Claire said with a smile. She walked into the art room and smiled happily. Paints were everywhere, there was all types of pastels and markers. she closed her eyes and sighed, this was her world. She grew more relaxed, "So, what's your favourite thing to draw?" she asked as she set down all her stuff next to a table and pulled out numerous sketchpads

"Anything and everything" Claire said with a dreamy look in her eyes, then she laughed, "Did you just say you'd pay him?" She smiled and started working on a painting of the sky she had started a while ago. "Then you hugged him?" she grinned and laughed softly.

Kiori smiled and laughed, walking down the hallway. "Crazy kids...." he chuckled, running a hand through his white hair. He walked into the Host Club room and left the door cracked a bit. It felt too much like a prison when the doors were shut closed all the way.

"The sky over the sea." Claire explained. The puffy white clouds drifted over the open sea, leaving shadows under where they floated. The waves crested with white foam, but not totally finished, "I've been working on it this week, and do you need help?" Claire laughed and got paper towels.

"ooooo pretty," Claire smiled at the painting. "How long did this take you?" she asked and added some shadow to her clouds

[[Shmurr mah hurm]

Kiori sat down at a desk, sifting through some papers.

In a class room on the west wing of the school building, John Lockhart was currently making use of his free period by helping a substitute teacher who had failed to receive proper instructions from the homeroom teacher,"Alright, i've put everything you need for each class into specific piles, so what you wanna do is pass out the work with the '2-1' sticky note on top of it for the next. Then just go down the line of work on the table for the other classes." John said softly, pointing out the aforementioned paper piles to the sub, "Thank you John, I don't imagine it would go over well if the students had no work to turn in when their teacher returned." the sub said with a soft chuckle. John nodded slightly in agreement to the statement and jerked his thumb at the door, there were other places that required a bit of assistance before he free period was up, and he wanted to insure all of his duties as a student council member were dealt with properly, "I'd imagine not. I'm sorry to cut this short sir, but i've got a few more stops to make before my class. Feel free to call for me in room A309 if you need any more help.", "Of course, thank you again John!", John nodded with a quick 'anytime' and walked out of the door with one of his hands tucked into his pocket as he rummaged around for something.

"Lemme see..." He said as he pulled a folded up piece of paper from his pocket and opened it up, "Ok, the chemistry class needs the order for new beakers and test tubes submitted to the principle, the culinary class's fridge needs to be fixed, and we need a new design for the marching band's banner.", he said before refolding the note and deciding which issue to address first. Eventually he settled on seeing to the banner as that was an issue that he could handle by talking to the art club members about making a new design, and began to make his way to the art club room.

Kiori saw John pass by and he smiled, leaning out of the Host Club doorway. "Oh, student council!" he called in a slightly sing-songy voice. He laughed a little. "Did you get the Host Club's order for that new chair? One of the old ones broke when someone had put their bag on it, the fragile thing." he laughed again.

John froze in his tracks and let out a small sigh, he may have enjoyed helping, but it was still a tad irksome when a student carelessly damaged school property, "I suppose I might be able to fix it, let me take a look at it.", John said as he reached for his satchel, only to grasp empty air, "Uh...one moment, I left my tools in the other class." he said somewhat sheepishly before jogging back down the hallway, and reacquiring his bag from the substitute teacher before jogging back. "Sorry about that, now then, lets see what the issue is with this desk." he said softly before gesturing for Kiori to lead the way.

Kiori lead him into the Host Club room, pointing to a desk in the far corner. "There it is." He said. The desk's legs were all snapped and the back of the seat had cracks in it. "It's an old model though."

John stared at the wrecked remains of the desk in shock when Kiori pointed to it, "What on god's green earth? This thing should've been tossed months, if not YEARS ago." he said before walking over to the desk and nudging it with his foot then sighing. John may have prided himself on fixing many things in the school, but he did have limits to what he could do, "Fine, i'll just submit a request to the principle and see if we can get a new desk. Is there anything else you need while i'm here?".

Kiori shrugged. "I can't think of anything." he said, smiling.

"Well, in that case, forgive me if this seems abrupt, but i've got a few more matters to attend to before my next class starts. Take care." John said before walking out of the host club room and down the hall towards the art club room. As he walked, John pulled the note out again along with a gel pen, and quickly scribbled down 'submit request for new desk in host club room to principle' onto the list before returning the items to his pocket. When he reached the art room, John peered inside the small window on the door and knocked on the glass a few times to catch the attention of anyone that might be present in the room.

Kiori sat down in a desk, going back to the papers he had.
