But you are beautiful // open // like I've never seen

THE BLUE AND GREEN BELOW IS A MASTERPIECE — When Caesar arrived, Jacob braced himself for some sort of seething comment or insult but instead he was... nice. He wasn't quite sure why but it definitely threw him off. Was this a new starting point for Caesar? Was he actually trying to not be a piece of burning trash? Probably not but Jacob always tried to be optimistic. "Uh, thanks Caesar. I didn' think ya'd like it, if I'm bein' honest. But thanks!" he admitted with a wide smile before his attention was grabbed by Keona. Jacob absolutely adored children and he was happy he'd had the opportunity to meet the little girl a few times. "Oh! Ya' don' gotta' thank me, Keona. I love doin' stuff like this. It ain't like work for me ta' make good food for all my friends n' family," he insisted before adding, [b]"Did ya' want somethin' ta' eat? There's different kindsa' pasta n' salad n' fruit. Ya' gotta' put sauce on the pasta though, so I was gonna' help some ah' the kids with tha' 'cause it's real hot n' I don' want any ah' ya' ta' burn yourselves. 'M sure ya' could do it but it jus' makes me nervous. There's also some desserts, but 'm a doctor so 'm supposed ta' tell ya' not ta' eat too many ha' those, I guess," he explained.

Something that he had thought about was how difficult it would be for some of the littler kids to get the pasta sauce without hurting themselves. Keona was, of course, especially a concern given her blindness but she didn't need to know he thought that. He just wanted to make sure everyone was safe. Besides, seeing as he had his own medical conditions, he didn't want to make her feel like she couldn't do something he was letting the other kids do. They were just so little and she couldn't even see and Jacob had such an overactive imagination when it came to crises. He then looked towards Caesar again and addressed them both, "I also got presents for everyone, if either ah' ya' want yours. Ya' can either get 'em now or eat n' do other things first n' I can jus' give 'em ta' ya' before ya' leave." — BUT YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL LIKE I'VE NEVER SEEN
