Will accept character sheets

[heirtothedragonsfire]

A multiversal plane is not an every day occurrence. Aliens, zombies, sentient robots... they're not a familiar sight either. Despite all of this, Isidor Briar Durant strides into this unfamiliar territory chin up, tailored suit, heels clicking against the ground, as if she owns the place. Viatorus follows nervously behind her, offering her answers whenever the smallest spark of confusion appears in her eyes as she scans area. She takes her time about putting names and terms to the things around her. It is important. She needs to be more than just informed about the Nexus, she needs to be familiar with it.

And then, when she decides she's ready, her intense examination changes with a blink. Isidor clasps her hands together and smiles, becoming the picture of a friendly stranger. "Hello. This is an exciting place, isn't it? Full of interesting people, I'm certain. I'd very much like to get to know you. Your name, a little bit about you and where you come from, maybe."

The offering is an unexpected one, but he accepts the sketch book with a quiet word of thanks, handling it with all the care he would give an ancient manuscript. Each page is turned with great care, the spine supported and never stretched.

Isidor watches Viatorus for a moment before looking back to Steve. "Viatorus does some of his own drawing..."

"Not like this," he pipes up, less anxious now that he has something to distract him. "These are wonderful! I'm not good at capturing this much detail." It's only when he looks up again that he hesitates. "What...ah, what kind of paint do you use?"

"Really? I wouldn't mind sketching with someone sometime. Haven't been able to do that since art school, before the war." Steve gives Viatorus a small smile. "I usually use watercolors, since it's easy to get a hold of and not too expensive, but I learned with oils as well when I was in school. Do you paint too?"

He seems thrilled at the idea of an art buddy.

[heirtothedragonsfire]

"Yes. Sometimes. W-Water colours too, but mostly... mostly charcoal and pencil." A hand lifts to scratch his brow with his thumb. "I've never used oils. I-I'm really not as good as you."

"If you practiced more..." Isidor suggests gently and then smiles between the two. "Maybe Mr Rogers would be kind enough to give you a few tips."

"Well, I went to school for it." Steve rubs at the back of his neck and smiles. "You're one of Verity's friends right? We should spend some time drawing together."

Steve gives Isidor a smile, thanking her silently for encouraging her brother to draw with Steve. he's always glad for company. Plus, how could anyone say no to that smile?

Viatorus blinks, a little flustered by the surprising turn of conversation. He shifts on the spot, giving the sketch book another glance before closing it over and nodding. "Yes, I... I suppose that... that might be nice."

The small victory allows Isidor to beam and lean in slightly to Steve. "Ignore his lack of enthusiasm. He'll be excited about it later."

He offers the book back to Steve, trying not to appear annoyed at his sister talking about him. "Thank you for letting me look at it."

He gives Isidor a polite nod before jotting down the hotel he's staying at in the commercial district, as well as his room number.

"I'm usually here if you can't find me around the Nexus. Oh!" He fumbles in his pockets before pulling out a blue Starkphone he's still not used to operating. "Uhm..this thing has a number too. It buzzes if you call it. Uhm..."

Not the slightest clue how to operate this thing yet.

[heirtothedragonsfire]

The difficulty with the phone is quaint but she's well versed in hiding her amusement. "May I?" If she's allowed to take it, she pulls out her own phone and starts tapping away with expert ease, one in each hand. After a bit she hands Steve's back with a smile. "I've given you his number and taken down yours. If he's being difficult and not answering, you'll probably find him in the library. He loves it."

"Have you been?" Viatorus is back to fidgeting with his hands. "It's enormous. And beautiful."
