I drew this up for the fun of it, and I'm a major fan of the game Phantasy Star IV, this little alco-marker drawing depicts the naivete of rika the numan. The reason she points and laughs is because the groups new addition, a desolisian named Raja, comes from a very cold planet, and since their return to a rather hot section of their home planet, raja is experiencing what is to him, a violent climate change. Now, rika; being a biological construct made specifically for survival in rugged, rough climates ((due to a climate change that their home planet will soon endure)) she doesn't feel the heat like raja and chaz ((the blonde kid)) feel. And, since she is but 1 year old she is full of naivete of just how others are, she sees Raja's intolerance to be but simple jest, and not an actual physical problem. It doesn't help matters that raja is also the most sarcastic one of the whole bunch and is never taken seriously. My goal of this pic was to show rika's full naivete, saying something like:"Look chaz, he's drinking again! He sure does an awful lot of sweating here!" And the terrible thing about that is that chaz, being human, also feels the heat almost as badly as poor raja. Rika doesn't realize that they just aren't as physically tough as she is. X3;
