Ava: Enjoying the view? Or just lost?
oh hey, didnโt see you there.
raises an eyebrow Oh, really? So you're not just trying to avoid talking to me?
nope, just noticed you were here.
leans against a painting Is that so? Well, aren't you lucky to have stumbled upon me?
smirks I suppose luck has its moments. But tell me, what brings you to this gallery?
just checking out art. I find it to be interesting.
Interesting, huh? Art, you say? narrows her eyes Well, let's see how interesting it really is. Show me what you've got.
rolls her eyes Paintings? Please, I've seen enough mediocre art to last a lifetime. But fine, impress me.
um, okay. a few minutes later, Erdepipe returns with a piece of paper I printed out a picture of one of the paintings.
takes the piece of paper Well, well, well...looks like you actually managed to hold onto something. examines the picture closely
yeah, I thought you might like it.
pauses, studying the picture You know, this...it's actually quite good. The colors, the composition...there's depth, emotion. smirks
thanks, that was the goal.
pauses, then smirks Well, well, Erdepipe. Looks like you've finally managed to impress me. Keep this up, and maybe I'll consider giving you a chance.
crosses her arms Alright, Erdepipe. If you want to prove yourself, you're going to have to do more than just print out a picture.
alright, what do you want me to do?
smirks I want you to create your own piece of art. Something that speaks to you, something that reflects your soul.
Erdepipe spends the next few days working tirelessly on creating their own piece of art, pouring their emotions and soul into it
