[Keigo feels like a kid waiting to unwrap a present while she sorts through her basket.]

You did something for me first. Thank you for helping out a poor abused invisible guy.

[He takes the crown she's holding out to him and gives it a closer look.]

Yours is so good.

[Especially when it's compared to his. It's not just in the basic, symmetrical and not coming apart, construction. The way the flowers are arranged makes him think she picked them carefully and didn't just take a handful of random flowers and greenery and start weaving them together.

Elizabeth did say she spent a lot of time practicing art.

It's too late to take it back. And it's not his fault he's not a natural flower crown maker! He lifts his own crown from where he'd let it hang at his side and holds it out more purposefully to her.]

I promise I worked really hard on mine!

[ She laughs a little as she remembers Keigo's invisible plight, but she waves a hand lightly as if to say that it doesn't matter. It does, but it's just something that Elizabeth was happy to do. She always wants to help people, and she may not often have the opportunity in Chroma, but if she could just be reassuring, that's something, probably.

Though as they turn back to flowercrowns, she smiles and nods at the compliment, but her face really lights up when he holds out one for her. It may not have the artistry that Elizabeth put into hers, but you wouldn't be able to tell based on her reaction. She takes it delicately, like it's a crown made of jewels. ]

I can tell. Thank you, Keigo.

[ She's very sincere and sweet, and immediately places it on her head after she's taken a closer look at it. ]

I'll take care of it.

[She likes it after all! And it doesn't feel like one of those times when you say you like something to keep from hurting someone's feelings, like a parent telling their kid their art project is a work of genius when really it...looks like Keigo's flower crown efforts. He's beaming.]

You're welcome.

I'll keep yours someplace special, too. [He puts it on with care.] But just on my head for right now.
