[It will also take some time for her to realize Joshua caught her badly. The photos need to be developed in whatever method Kaveh sees fit. Surely, she won't be the only one looking a right fool in his collections.

Pursing her lips, she pulls the camera away from Torgal and at least has the presence of mind to wipe the wetness left behind with the edge of her sleeve before looking up at Joshua.]

I was thinking... you.

[She sounds a bit more thoughtful of her choice than just wanting to return the favor, as if she's been considering this for longer than just a minute.]

[phoenixdominant]

[Joshua is very curious, at that. He raises an eyebrow and smiles.]

Pictures of me? Why of me?

[Surely there's much better things to take pictures of. Like Jill, or of Ambrosia, or of the sight of the ocean from The Hideaway's cliffs.]

[tilfrosset]

Because...

[She wants to leave her reasoning hanging here so she doesn't have to bring up unpleasant topics, but Jill has never been the "Because I said so" type. There is good rationale to her desire for a picture of her little brother, more so than just wanting proof these cameras work the way they should. But it's also actually because the cameras will work the way they should that drives Jill and she knows Joshua deserves to hear the truth.]

Because I want something to remember you by.

[After all, he didn't come back from Ultima yet when she left home. Jill has no idea of how any of them fare.]

Jill...

[Joshua feels both touched and sombre at her words. He hasn't thought on the fact for some time now but Joshua actually knows his own fate should he return home. He still can't be sure that it will be a definite fate and he plans to fight it with every part of his soul but...

He comes to his dear sister and he reaches for her hand to hold it in his gingerly.]

Let us take a picture together, heads close, just like we used to when we shared our books as children.

[He'll come to her side, preparing for a group selfie. If they hold the camera device up it should capture the both of them. Correct?]

[tilfrosset]

[Her shoulders soften at the touch of his hand. Jill's been carrying tension in them more and more these last few days, but Joshua has always been one of those people with the magic touch in him that comforted her as easily as she got stressed.

She smiles a nods before she laughs at the sweet memory.]

How many times did with literally butt heads because I didn't turn the page fast enough?

[Juggling the camera around with one hand is harder than it looks, but she manages to get it straightened out enough to get it ready.]

Alright, I believe some people say "cheese" at this moment.

[Why cheese? Jill think it's one of those weird slang things from the young folk here.]
