( a visit to a museum is a search for beauty, truth, and meaning in our lives. )
in the G R E E K / R O M A N section - you are strangers who happen upon each other at the museum. what do you talk about? is it a debate about art or pure smalltalk? will you want to meet again?
a stop at the C A F E - all that wandering around art and history has made you hungry. how's the food here, dull or delicious? sit down and have a talk or see if you can smuggle a snack with you into the next exhibit without getting caught!
special E X H I B I T on the first floor - you've arranged to meet here! is it a romantic date or just a bit of a good time with friends or family? are you fascinated by what you see or already bored before you get started? under any circumstances, enjoy your outing together!
T O U R this way, follow along - you've signed up for the tour! are you alone or with someone? do you ask questions with interest or hang back and whisper among yourselves? are you actually more interested in your phone? do you maybe get lost on the way?
before "W O M A N with black S T O C K I N G S" - these paintings are rather raunchy and you're both suddenly feeling like a little round of public sex. well, this is your chance! who will see you behind that statue, that column or in that corner anyway?
E X I T, emergency only - is there a scenario that hasn't been covered or something else you'd like to do at the museum? this is your option!
How to play -
1. Comment with your character's name, fandom and preferences in the subject line.
2. Others comment to your top level with an option for a scenario and either leave a starter or ask you to start the scene.
There's barely a glance toward the cane, but it's just him taking in the presence of an unexpected friend while he's out.
"There's always been something about frozen mammoths which I find intriguing." He gives an amused smirk as he plays off her joke, turning fully toward her and giving a friendly tilt of his head.
"Must be quite a day that finds us both attempting to pass as normal for once."
"Feeling nostalgic?" The reply was easy to bounce off of, now that they were allowed to just 'be normal' as he put it.
"Normal people try to take a break during the holidays, spend time with family," Not that that ever stopped her from remaining on HQ in the past. "I've been trying to make an effort atleast."
And she was here, taking some time off to appreciate the city in a way she couldn't while on duty. "What brings you here?"
Ah, right, holidays. This was the traditional season for them. Perhaps he'd try celebrating the Winter solstice this year. It would be appropriate, after all.
He folds his hands in front of him, his posture still straight but there's a shyness that seems to come over him as he glances down at his own shoes a moment.
"There's only so many days one can spend alone in the mountains." The Lin Kuei temple was vacant, too quiet for him to tolerate for long. "It's not good for the sanity. It explains a lot about Raiden." He snorts, finally raising his gaze back up to her. "Besides, if I'm lucky, I might even run into some friends. Seems like that luck is holding up well, today."
