Can't survive on just crabapples [OTA]

Who: Okie and you
What: November catch-all
When: Early to mid month, maybe later
Where: Cabin 126, Windjammer, Chatterbox

1. Frequently, secretly (Closed to Dedue)

Okie has been standing outside of cabin 126 for the last ten minutes. He's nervous. He's been given every assurance that this conversation will go well, but he can only imagine all the ways it won't. But he remembers his Pa's advice; the only cure for indecision is action.

He knocks. "Hey, uh, Dedue? It's Okie. Got a minute?"

2. A boy and his dog

On the first Cowboy Crafts meetup of the month, Okie sets up the usual quilting supplies he usually does, and then disappears for the next hour. When he returns, he has several full laundry bags, which he empties to reveal four dozen assorted stuffed animals from the Build-a-Bear machine. He reaches into the pile, pulls out a dog, and begins to measure out how much fabric it'd take to make it a dress.

3. Karaokie

Okie has learned, over his time here, that when he wants to scream, it's usually better for him to sing instead. So he spends a little over an hour in Chatterbox, singing songs of all different moods.

Surprise, Okie. There's someone in your room again. That's it, that's the starter.

( Steve and Eddie had talked about doing karaoke a few times, but never had a chance to follow through. Or maybe they did and Steve's memories after ten months in the sensory deprivation void are still so scrambled that he doesn't remember. Either way, this feels like the first time he's wandering into karaoke, and it's a very loud song that draws him in.

It sounds like something Eddie might like, and for some reason it comes as something of a surprise when Steve realizes that the mystery singer is none other than Okie. But maybe that shouldn't be a surprise at all. Either way, Steve sticks around, lingering by the door in case Okie'd rather he go. )

Hey, sorry. Hope you don't mind an audience, ( he says once the song comes to a close. )

Dedue slowly opens the door a crack, then opens more fully when he sees Okie. “I have several,” he says in monotone.
