Kiku has a knack for art. He's skilled with a pencil, paint brush, marker... basically any tool you would hand him, he could use with skill. It's therapeutic for him- at least, enough to distract him from things always churning in his brain. He often draws his surroundings; a person across the room from him, a random spot on the wall, a new scar on his opposite arm, or anything else in his view. Today, however, he was drawing something not in his view. Today, he was drawing his new roommate. Ever since he had seen the man, his appearance intrigued him. Fine long hair, unmistakably Asian features, tan skin, pointed nose, full lips... although he had been sent to the "Quiet Room" (a place Kiku knew far too well), the image of Wang Yao- Yao Wang, he corrects himself, as he is no longer in Japan- is fresh in his mind. So, he draws it. His pencil has no eraser, but he doesn't mind. He makes no mistakes. Would he dare show this to Yao? Only time would tell. Once it was finished, he would most likely hide it, far away from wherever Yao could see. If they got closer, maybe he could see it, maybe even had it. He just hopes he won't be made fun of.

Maddie walks into the art room... been asked to supervise it while the other nurse when to help a doctor. There she see Mr.Honda, drawing. She smiles warmly. Shes glad that he was acting somewhat better then the last time she saw him. "Hello, Mr.Honda. Have you been feeling better" She asked walking over to him but stopped when she was two arm lengths away. Knowing he'd probably freak out if she got closer. Maddie gave him a smile.

Kiku looks up from his drawing to see the young blonde nurse again. This time, he doesn't mind all that much, though he does cover his work with his hands. Kami forbid that she'd see it and figure out who it was. "Hello... y-yes, I am better," he states. "Drawing is very relaxing for me." With a minuscule smile, he uncovers the picture and gazes down at it, admiring his work.

Maddie sneaks a peek at the picture a gasps. "Oh... Mr.Honda, that's amazing, you really have a talent from drawing." Maddie praises him. He was an artiest, and a good one at that. The picture looked so realistic and striked a resemblance to Mr. Wang another patient that shared room with Mr.Honda. "Is that Mr.Wang, Mr.Honda? It looks exactly like him." Maddie smiled, truthfully she had only seen Mr.Wang when he' past her in hallways.

Kiku's cheeks turn a bit red at the compliment. "Ah, thank you..." They then turn even more red at the mention of Yao's name. He then again covers his drawing, sputtering random words in Japanese at the woman. "I-I-I'm sorry... b-but no, this is not Mr. Wang... i-it is someone completely different, I swear." He considers ripping the drawing apart, now that someone knew, but it was a very good sketch... so he leaves it be. The embarrassment is almost too much to bear, though, and he wishes that she would just leave so he could draw in peace and control his breathing.

Maddie notices Mr.Honda's breathing become uneven, and she begins to worry a little. "I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to set you off Mr.Honda" Maddie's voice a whisper. Knowing that Mr.Honda was Japanese she bows in apology. Maddie gulps... She had offended a patient, she was going to get written up for this. Maddie decides to walk away from Mr.Honda hoping it would calm him down... and her, soon she would start shaking that would be even more embarrassing.

"O-oh... it's alright," he says, though he is very relieved when she walks away. He manages to start breathing normally again, and continues his drawing. There are a few smudges from where his hands were, but he pretends that it's just shading. Smiling again (something he rarely does, yet something that he would like to do much more often), he begins to work on the bridge of Yao's nose. Perfect, he thinks, and sighs lightly to himself.

Maddie glanced at Mr.Honda's smiling face then back to her notes that she'd be taking. She added on the to the long list under Mr.Honda's name. Then sat down in a chair... "I'm bored..." She huffed "When while the other nurse get back?" she sat there for a minute then began doodling pictures around her notes like a High school girl would do. Something hit her, making her stop mid-doodle. She gulped and shakily asked "M-Mr.Hon-d-da May I a-ask you a q-question?"

He stops short of finishing Yao's nose, turning sharply to look over at the nurse. It was rare for anyone to ask him questions so abruptly, but he figured he would humor her. If he didn't, he could get in trouble, and he didn't want that at all. "Sure... w-what is it?"

Maddie didn't dare meet Mr.Honda's eyes. She could tell by his voice he was annoyed by her presence. She gulped and made a promise to herself she wouldn't talk to Mr.Honda until the other nurse came back. "The d-doctors here... they're n-not n-neglecting y-you... a-are t-they?" Maddie Stuttered.

Neglecting him? If anything, they were around far too much. He preferred his privacy, and even when they asked for Kiku to take his medicine, he was a bit bothered. If only he had just a bit of time to himself... other than bathroom time, now that he had a roommate, someone was constantly with him. Not that he minded Yao, but... "O-oh, no, not at all!" he exclaims. "They take good care of me, I promise. D-don't worry." He would reach out and pat her to reassure her, but she must be covered in germs, and Kiku hates physical contact almost as much as he hates being in the hospital.

"Crayons!! Yeah!!" Alfred is already shouting as he enters the room, already bubbling with excitement, eager and ready to get going on some art. Art therapy is one of his favorite times a day; he may not be an artist, far from it actually, but he enjoys it thoroughly. It's a chance to let out some of his overwhelmingly piled up imagination, to slow down the racing thoughts for just a while as he draws. His drawings are simple, colorful, and filled with a childlike charm, varying from scribbles of dogs and cars to full-blown full-page beach scenes.
Box of crayons and pile of paper in hand, Alfred bounces over to the table where Kiku is, throwing himself down opposite the other man.

Maddie closes here eyes and lets out the breathe she had been holding in. "What a relief" She whispered. Her heart was beating to fast... her ears throbbed. She was scared for a moment but that one line made washed her worries. "Looks like Lukas was right.... Thank you from telling me that Mr.Honda I'm sorry I bothered you." She said before returning to her doodles

Kiku nearly shrieks. He recognizes the other man from the common room; he had saw him a few days ago, watching television... but he doesn't know his name. Perhaps it's better that way. He is quite loud, and that is a trait that Kiku doesn't fancy in anyone. He thanks the heavens that this man isn't his roommate, or he might lose even more sleep than normal. Suddenly tense, he keeps his head down, concentrating on finishing his drawing. Almost done, he traces the outline of the bags present under Yao's eyes, shading them a bit, to show just how tired the other man must be. Once he returns to his room, he'd hide the drawing under his mattress, so Yao wouldn't see. Embarrassment would be far too much to handle if he did end up seeing it before they got to know each other too well.

Maddie jumped as Alfred entered the room. "Well Hello Mr.Jones" Maddie smiled. Alfred was that little kid that would cheer you up just by entering the room. Maddie Giggled. and went back to her doodles.
