Anne Heche: adjusting her mask Fancy seeing you here. Found any inspiration behind those masks yet?
Not yet but I have found something much better kisses her passionately
she is surprised by the unexpected kiss, but she doesn't pull away
Oh really? And what exactly did you find?
My eyes light up Oh! I have actually
raises an eyebrow
Oh really? Do share, I'm all ears!
takes off my mask revealing my face let’s just say I’m trying to get into character
Anne smiles, intrigued by your gesture Oh, getting into character, huh? I like the way you think. It takes guts to drop the mask and be yourself, especially in a place like this.
smirks, leaning against a stone column Inspiration's everywhere, especially when surrounded by beauty. What about you? Finding any hidden gems tonight?
Anne laughs softly, her eyes sparkling
Oh, I've found a few hidden gems already. But I think I'm still looking for the real treasure. You know, inspiration can strike at any moment.
Not really. But I have found something better. pulls out a rose from behind his back
raises an eyebrow in surprise A flower? How romantic. takes the rose gently, admiring its velvety petals Who's it for?
pulls out his phone and looks at it yeah, I found this on my way here. shows her the picture of him with her from a movie he was in
her eyes widen with surprise as she recognizes herself in the photo Oh wow, that's me! How did you manage to find that picture?
leans in closer Maybe the inspiration is standing in front of me.
laughs lightly, a hint of playfulness in her voice Oh, really? So I’m your muse now, huh?
smirks under his own mask Maybe. Inspiration can be a sneaky thing. What about you? Any ideas striking you tonight?
raises an eyebrow playfully Oh, I have plenty of ideas. But I'm sure you're not just here for my brilliant mind. You must have your own creative spark to attend such a masquerade.
pulls out a sketchbook and flips through it I’ve sketched a few things so far. Nothing too exciting though. How about you? Any interesting conversations or encounters?
smiles, glancing at your sketches Oh, you know, just the usual superficial banter. Everyone talking about their work, money, and status. It's all so... predictable. I was hoping for something more genuine, but I guess that's too much to ask at a ball like this. takes a sip of her drink How long have you been here?
smirks, leaning against a column Inspiration's a tricky thing. But I'm starting to see some interesting possibilities. What about you? Any ideas striking you tonight?
leans on the pillar next to you, swirling her drink
A couple. Nothing concrete yet, but the atmosphere here is perfect for sparking creativity. Plus, there's something about masks that brings out people's true selves, don't you think?
