Harry had poured the cooked eggs into a bowl and was about to grab plates when something new happened. A voice was heard from the other room, and it caused all three boys to freeze in place, much to Y/N's confusion.

"Did someone say draw?"
______________

Everyone's attention was drawn to the kitchen doorway where a woman stood. She had straight, black hair with multicolored poofy bangs. She wore a white dress with doodles on it, and her sleeves and tights were an inky black. Silence hung in the air upon her appearance. Not knowing what to do in this situation, Y/N decided to answer her question.

"Um, I did."

The woman's gaze quickly snapped to the child, making them flinch slightly from the suddenness, and she grinned.

"That's great!" she said.

She quickly stepped over to the chair Y/N was sat in and picked them up. Before she could step away from the chair, Harry plucked Y/N from the new lady's grasp and sat them back in the chair gently.

"We're not interested in any lessons, so please leave. We're trying to eat." Harry spoke, glaring slightly at the lady.

The woman seemed a bit offended, but she looked back to Y/N with a small smile, dropping whatever expression she wore before.

"I'm Paige! You seem to be new here. You're Y/N, right?"

Y/N smiled a little at the lady and nodded to answer her last statement. She seemed nice. Maybe a bit zany, but nice.

Paige turned to the other three at the table, her hands placed upon her hips.

"I only wanted to get a little creative here. This kid is new, and they like to draw! That's literally my specialty! Can't one drawing be done?"

Harry and Robin looked at each other, then to Doi and Y/N.

"If it's just a drawing, it couldn't be too bad, right?" Robin said quietly.

Paige quickly jumped at the opportunity, beginning to speak before anyone else could get a word in.

"Alright! Let's get creative!"

Paige snapped her fingers, and everyone was in the living room. A small table was set up, filled with art supplies. Four papers were sat down, one on each side of the table, waiting to be used. Paige ushered everyone over to the table excitedly.

"Just draw whatever you want!" Paige said after everyone had sat down. "That's the beauty of creativity! You are the master of your imagination! Hone it and express whatever your mind or heart desires!"

Everyone, at varying stages of reluctance, began to draw. Y/N paused, trying to decide what they wanted to draw. Then, they got it; a good idea came to them. They smiled, grabbing a pencil, a black marker and some colored pencils. They were about to get to work, when they noticed one color seemed to be consistently missing.

"Um... Miss Paige?" Y/N asked quietly, trying not to disturb anyone's thought processes.

Paige quickly stopped talking to Harry about something and walked to the child, crouching down to their height in the chair.

"Yeah, kid?"

"Where are the green ones?" They pointed to the pack of twelve colored pencils they were given, which only held eleven.

Paige paused, her eye twitched a bit. Harry and Robin went wide eyed, giving each other an 'Oh sh*t' look.

"Well," Paige explained, slowly and calmly. "To put it simply, I don't like the color green. That's why I didn't include it with the supplies."
