[ he's got his uniform in hand!! but just take a little strip off the sleeve 'cause he actually looks good in this and it gives him one more day of not doing laundry. important. ]
Yeah! I helped Yuty and AJ make 'em once when they were kids. AJ had this fancy bracelet his folks left him that he wore all the time, and Yuty wanted to match, but that wasn't really an option. So we made matching bracelets for both of 'em instead.
[ that's kind of cute actually. he does not say that, but he seems to be registering that and filing it away for later. ]
Easy solution for an easy problem. I bet that made both of them pretty happy. [ he thinks kids are probably easy to please. also he hears "left him" rather than "gave him" and can read the context of that while he's trying to figure out a better way to grab cloth from his prison uniform rather than what he's doing. ] And did you make one for yourself to join them?
Depends how much of it you wanna save, I guess... but with mine, I just used my knife to slice off the hem of one of the sleeves and cut it again at the seam to make it into one long strip. Then you can just kinda twist it up and braid it in with the other threads and beads and whatnot.

Been a long time since I made anything like this.

[ looking over at what nico's doing with his uniform... ]
You lookin' to cut off a little strip o' that or what?
