[Rapunzel seemed a bit nervous, even going as far as to plaite a small potion of her hair. She figured she wanted to ask about this, but deep down she felt like this was also going to come across as rude or something.]

Um...this might seem a bit unusual but... [She paused a little bit longer.] We got the lab nearly two weeks ago and so the things were moved from the Quiet Carriage right? Do you think it would be okay if... we change that area so we can have the art supplies there?

I mean... we don't have anywhere currently and I think it would be a nice gesture at least. But it might also not be great depending.

[She soon sighed a little bit.]

Maybe it's not a good idea... But I just want people to be able to enjoy doing art. That's all.

Comments

[adropofsunlight]

I hope so. Though I must ask. DO you write yourself?

[salutosinedelectat]

Hmm, well... [ He hesitates. ] Not quite. Much more of a reader myself. And collector.

Have my own bookshop back where I'm from.

[adropofsunlight]

A bookshop? You mean a place that is filled with books?

[salutosinedelectat]

Yes, very much so. Had it for a couple of centuries. With luck, it'll still be there whenever this entire ordeal is over.

[ If it will ever be over. But he has to believe that. ]

[adropofsunlight]

Couple of centuries? Well that must mean you are filled with wisdom then? Not just from books but from world experiences.

[salutosinedelectat]

Oh, well.

[ Not that the young girl can see it, but he immediately preens.

The experience of angels, immortal beings as they are, from a time before time, human lives always feel exponentially short. Being so, his experience is certainly very different, in a way humans wouldn't be able to fully grasp. But that's alright, of course - that goes both ways, although he's had a taste of mortality at a couple of points. ]

I don't know I'd say that. [ Said in the tone of someone who would not say it, but is definitely not against hearing it. ] But I do suppose you collect experiences and knowledge on the way.

[adropofsunlight]

Life is all about learning and growing and in my case experiencing life when I am able to.

[Because you know... never really had much of a life outside of the tower. Now she gives it her all when she is able to.]

One cna also pass that wisdom down and teach others if they want to be taught.

[salutosinedelectat]

I do suppose that's right. I'm not quite sure if there's anything I could be able to teach...

[ Although the idea is in his head. There's a lot of wisdom he could impart on someone - and sometimes, he has, although usually his experiences are shared with someone else with about the same time of experience as him.

If nothing else, he could ramble about literature, and art, and all the things he already talks about at length. ]

But that's still a nice though.

[adropofsunlight]

It is. But hey. I am always here to listen if you ever want to talk. I actually enjoy listening to others.

[Because they have experienced so much that she can't help but want to. Also her want to befriend as many people as she can helps.]

[salutosinedelectat]

[ He smiles tenderly at the though. What a nice young woman. ]

I'd be delighted.

[adropofsunlight]

I'll look forward to it.

[And she is pretty truthful in her words. After all back home she never really had others to talk or listen to and so she takes the time now to do exactly that.]

[salutosinedelectat]

Perhaps we could chat over tea.

[adropofsunlight]

OH, tea sounds good. Maybe I could bake something. Like a cake.

Is... Is that what people have with tea?

[salutosinedelectat]

Oh yes. Cake, and biscuits, and sometimes other matter of finger foods.

[ Clearly this young lady hasn't had the pleasure of a proper tea date. Well, he'd be happy to share it with her - he's always happy to chat with people over tea. ]

[adropofsunlight]

OKay, got it. Though finger foods I assume aren't food made with fingers, right?

[salutosinedelectat]

Oh, no, not at all. They're meant to be eaten with your fingers. Well, hands.

I'd be happy to prepare some.

[adropofsunlight]

That makes much better sense.

I'd like to see what foods would be classed as that.

[salutosinedelectat]

Then I'll make sure to make a varied spread just for you, dear girl.
