He nods. "I'm sure there's some gift giving occasion happening soon. And then I can teach you to manipulate the shadow cloth. You can make the blanket bigger or smaller, you could even change it into a cloak which helps you blend in with darkness." Useful shit for hiding or hunting.
"It's good that you have this light power, it'll help. Light makes the strongest shadows."
He nods at her color wheel explanation. "The color of the light matters. When you're using sunlight or a light bulb, the light is white, so the shadows contain every color. This makes them easy to manipulate. When the light is a different color, say blue, you have to use the color opposite it on the color wheel to make the shadows move. In the case of blue light, orange is the predominant color in the shadow."
"I'll start working on it soon." Minus a few torture dream derailments.
"All right. Try to manipulate the shadow again given the changing light. This isn't a color thing, just a light source thing, so it's a little easier, but it may feel like starting from scratch again. Just be patient and you'll get it."

Eventually, she gets it to wave at them again, though more unsteadily than the first time.
