I8DT - The Art of Escape (Open)

[Jennifer Tarasova]

Jennifer was sitting in front of a block of clay, staring at it intently as if she expected it to shape itself. Or maybe she was just looking for inspiration. It was hard to say.

[Genevieve Winchester]

Gen walks in, carrying her latest sculpture. She sets it down on a table before glancing at Jennifer.

"Having fun?"

[Jennifer Tarasova]

"In a manner of speaking. Just lacking in inspiration today."

[Genevieve Winchester]

"Suckage," Gen says, "Not even an idea?"

[Jennifer Tarasova]

"There's something, hanging around at the edges of my brain, but I can't quite get a fix on it."

[Genevieve Winchester]

"Have you tried drinking?" Gen jokes, "Always seems to pry loose my muse when it's being a little stubborn."

[Jennifer Tarasova]

"Not today. I've had a few things shake loose after drinking sometimes, but since I've been working behind the bar I find my appetite for it slipping a bit."

[Genevieve Winchester]

"No way around it then," Gen jokes with a grin, "I'll have to model for you. Let me just take off my shirt."

[Jennifer Tarasova]

Jennifer laughs, "No that's alright. I think I've finally found it." She started working the clay slowly, no definite shape emerging yet.

[Genevieve Winchester]

"So, I haven't seen you in here a ton," Gen says, "Are you new or am I just a jerk?"

[Jennifer Tarasova]

"Pretty new. Transferred in. Jennifer Tarasova," she said.

[Genevieve Winchester]

"Good to meet ya," Gen says, "I'm Genevieve Winchester. Gen's fine though."

[Jennifer Tarasova]

"Art student or just like art?"

[Genevieve Winchester]

"Art student," Gen says, "Mostly sculpture and metal work."

[Jennifer Tarasova]

"Sculpture and drawing here with a little bit of painting thrown in for spice," Jennifer said. "Started sculpting to help with my powers and decided to keep going with it."

[Genevieve Winchester]

"Kind of the same thing here," Gen says, "Magnetism makes for good metalworking."

[Jennifer Tarasova]

"I can make some killer ice sculptures. And using water to work stone can create some interesting textures."

[Genevieve Winchester]

"Sounds pretty neat actually," Gen says.

[Jennifer Tarasova]

"I haven't tried it here yet. Water and stone can get a bit messy."

[Genevieve Winchester]

"Best type of art," Gen says.

[Jennifer Tarasova]

"Sometimes, but the grit gets everywhere and you have to have something to keep the excess water from going everywhere."

[Genevieve Winchester]

"Do it in one of the workrooms," Gen says, "Most of 'em have drains."

[Jennifer Tarasova]

"I'll have to give it some thought. Might practice in the Danger Room to make sure I'm not going to accidentally grind holes in the floor or something."

[Genevieve Winchester]

"That could also work," Gen says.
