Adrienne Harborth: appears, floating slightly above the ground "Well, isn't this a paint-ful reunion? Miss me?"
Hey, Adrienne! ...and here I was thinking it was just gossip
You know what they say - 'you only live once', but I've been dead for two years now...go figure.
You can say that. But hey, guess what? I'm still pretty kick-ass. I mean, have you seen me lately? winks
Your latest painting looks like your ex-boyfriend's ass.
Oh, you mean the one where he couldn't stop talking about his 'own special brand' of 'no-skin-off'? Yeah, that one. Totally deserved.
Let's just say he got a taste of his own medicine. smirks
Damn, Adrienne. I always knew you had talent.
Thanks, Cforacer. But let's not forget how good I am with a paintbrush and a revenge plot. winks
So, what's next on your artistic agenda?
Oh, just a little side project I've been working on - a hauntingly beautiful portrait of the town's most respected elder, completely nude.
Sounds...interesting. Any particular reason for that?
Well, you see, I noticed that our dear old Mr. Johnson, the pillar of this town, has been getting a bit too comfortable in his retirement.
Ooh, I see. And you decided a nude portrait would crack him up?
Oh no, my dear Cforacer. This portrait will crack more than just him up. It will crack open the town's dirty little secrets.
Sounds intense. When can I see it?
Intense is my middle name. grins mischievously You'll get to see it soon enough, my friend. But first, I need a few more...inspirations.
Of course. Do you need anything else from me?
Oh, Cforacer, you're always full of surprises. But before we dive into our next project, I need to know - are you game for a little midnight swim?
