Artist. Hipster scum. Adult store alum. Marginalized other. Hit me up and let me draw you like one of my French girls. (Is that creepy? That's probably creepy. I don't mean it to be, but welcome to me, I guess.)
( caroline is unfazed. she was friends with jeremy gilbert. well, more like "friends adjacent", considering he was the baby brother of her best friend, but... still. she can handle a bad joke or two. )
it's probably better if the boat stays afloat the doors here are definitely not big enough for two people
( what's her thing? does she have a thing? cheerleading, party planning, drinking copious amounts of expensive whiskey? they don't exactly roll off as exciting personality traits... )
i guess it's posing for nude modeling sessions honestly, i don't think i have a thing
Oohh, come on, Caroline. Everyone has a thing. Some people draw, some people write poetry, some people are into bicycling and some people are into music. You have a thing, you just don't know it, yet.
But, I mean...hey. If you want posing for nude modeling sessions to be your thing, I can absolutely help you out with that, seeing as how still life is my favorite, especially nudes — not because I'm a perv, but because there's nicer lines and shading when there's not wrinkles in clothing to mess around with.
You have a thing. I'll help you find the thing, Caroline. It's there somewhere. You're not boring, you just haven't figured it out yet. That's cool.
Or, hey, maybe you're really boring and I'm wrong, in which case, nude modeling can definitely turn that around haha.
Is it as cool as it sounds? What kind of shit is there to do around here, anything good? Besides chatting online with pretty girls, since I've got that already got that covered pretty well right now, I think.
( okay, that was pretty smooth. she'll roll her eyes, but she'll accept that compliment. )
i don't think i've found everything there is to do yet, but there doesn't seem to be anything missing as far as i can tell what sort of things are you looking for?
...but I'm not opposed to doing a little exploring. We'll have to see what we can find.
Start with coffee sometime and take it from there?
[ It's a start, but then Alex is going to need to get himself a job and, eventually, find himself A Guy, because he only has so much weed on his person at any given time and what he's got is maybe enough for a bowl. He's saving it, for that reason. When he really needs some serious inspiration for a painting, he'll break it out. Til then, it sits under his underwear in the top drawer of his dresser and that's where it's staying. He doubts Caroline is the type that could hook him up with A Guy, but maybe he's wrong. He'll have to feel her out a little more.
Once he's got that, though, that's where all the underground doors open. That's when he finds out all the best shit. ]
maybe the loophole is there are no raves yet the city is waiting for someone who knows how to throw one
( caroline might be a master party planner, but she's not exactly an expert at the underground rave scene. or, really, any kind of underground scene. she's still getting used to the whole supernatural thing. )
lucky for you, you happen to know someone who's got connections for that sort of thing
I hope that someone is a cute blonde named Caroline, because the huge dork named Alex is a participant in these things, not a planner.
[ He's pretty sure she's alluding to herself, but that's just as good; she is cute and he's interested in spending time with her in person where he can actually get to know her a little better. ]
Oh boy. I'll just see what I can find, because nah. Nah, you do not want me to plan things. I'll find something. It's got to be a thing, I just need to meet some locals and take it from there. I got you, don't worry.

is the tacky jewelry a hard requirement for this art session?
because i'm pretty sure the old lady threw it in the ocean at the end of that movie
no subject
[ Uh, hey pretty. ]
Definitely not. Sans jewelry is also totally an option. Obviously, less fun, but whatever floats your boat.
[ See what he did there? Yeahhh he's not that funny but he tries. ]

Damn chivalry, I'm too young to die.
I'm actually not THAT good, but I do draw sometimes.

Yeah I'm new. How long have you been here?
no subject
( is she really this boring? maybe she is. she's never really thought about it. )
i haven't been here very long, actually
a few months now, but it doesn't seem like it's been that long
