A picture's worth...

--The following transcript was a live chat roleplay--
Keara: Keara was in the middle of sorting out the lockboxes she kept her ritual ingredients in when his message came through. To which project do you refer My Love. Many art projects have I time invested in of late. This was true. She was still cultivating a number of designs to show Crash so that she could show him the level of her skills, before they discussed a design he might actually want.
Enver: He scowled. She was being clever and coy. Mostly coy. You know which one I'm talking about. That special request. The word special seeped from him with quite the tone of sarcasm attached to it as he thought it. It's missing. He circled back to the real reason as to why he was contacting her about it. Or, the reason that best fit his reasoning to contact her about it.
Keara: Special request? she replied, still none the wiser as to what he was talking about. Busy I am My Love. If something missing is. Then missing it likely supposed to be is. She wasn’t trying to be funny, she was simply trying to tell him in her own way that he worried too much. The tone of his voice however had her moving the piles about her and standing, as she could tell this conversation was one best had face-to-face.
Enver: His right hand went to the bridge of his nose as he sighed before he continued on with this thoughts at her. Yeah, the one for what's his face? Robert. Enver tried to catch her up to speed in case she didn't know what he was talking about. If she did and was being coy, she would know that that painting was the main focus on his mind tonight. Like I said, it's gone. You paint good, but it looked like there was still a bit of work to do on it. Which means someone took it.
Keara: Painting? she thought, not shielding her thoughts from her husband as she connected to his mind to save him the effort of having to speak into hers. What painting? Oh. The one of Deanna. Did I not him tell that, that finished was? Sure I am that, that to him I did show… Sent it I did Robert My Love. Finished it was. Deanna eager did seem for him that to have. Worry not. She was brushing herself down, having gotten to her feet and then crossed the short distance to the elevator, as if he was looking for the painting, he was likely in their room.
Enver: Don't you think it's a bit silly to be sending some guy you don't really know a painting of what Deanna looks like? Or that Deanna can treat you like garbage for weeks, hell, even months but when she needs you she comes floating back to you and asks you for a favor? He didn't like or trust anything about this situation. It was, well, strange. Where are you?
Keara: About to enter the elevator I am. She replied. Deanna good has been of late. For the most part. Treat me thusly she does not. Know I do not of what he speaks. Why would it silly be for a picture of my sister to paint for that likes her does? She pressed the button for the appropriate floor and waited for the thing to whirl into life.
Enver: She's kidding, right? You're kidding, right? She's a wraith. It's strange. What are they going to do? Get bound? He scoffed at the idea of it. He'll get bored with it anyways. It's stupid, but his track record with women might be worse than mine. Add in she's a ghost and there's really nothing to worry about, I guess. Forget about it. It's stupid. I think it's stupid, but there's nothing to worry about. Like I said, they can't get bound or anything.
Keara: Think you do that Deanna his care and attention does not deserve? Why matters it if they with one another are? Think I do that it quite sweet is. Deanna happy and excited is for with him to be. And what mean you by track record. Found me you did. Your path to me lead. Unhappy about that you cannot be. The doors opened and she began to make her way to their cell, her feet still bare, as she had not yet been out that evening.
Enver: His jaw clenched together as he heard her reply in his head. It matters. His thoughts grew to the point and cool. Don't think he's interested in her at all, truth be told. After all, you're the one who painted a picture for him. One that's probably in his house.
Keara: Keara pushed the door open and broke off their connection the moment she saw her husband. “And matters it does who the painting did paint? The portrait of Deanna is. No-one else that for her could do. No-one knew her as she was but I. Worries you this does and yet understand I do not why?” She crossed the room to embrace him, feeling that perhaps he had had a bad day and required a little TLC in order to relax.
Enver: When he heard her voice, he turned around to the sound of it, his gaze moving away once he saw her, and acknowledged her, to the wall next to her. "Today it's a painting of Deanna. Maybe tomorrow some other painting because he liked it. Then another. It matters." He cleared his throat. "You think it's sweet she likes him and they'll never have anything together? Really? Doubt that."
Keara: “What do they require?” she asked as she wrapped her arms around him. “If they one another have and one another’s company do enjoy…Do they anything else need?” She asked as she looked up at her husband, who always seemed taller to her without the added height of her boots. She’d ignored the comments of the paining, as to her it really didn’t matter; if Robert wanted her to paint something, she’d be more than happy to oblige.
Enver: He stared down at her. "You're kidding. I love you, but you're kidding. Look at us. Sure, at first you might not need anything and are content, but things change." He shrugged. "It'll matter when he wants something more...tangible and she's caught in the middle of something. Can't wait to get bitchy Deanna back." He grumbled as he ran a hand through his hair.
Keara: She knew that sign and her brow furrowed as she tried to understand what he was saying. “Joking I am not My Love. Understand your concerns I do not but trying I am for that to do. See I do not the harm in this relationship if it my sister happy does make. Deny her I cannot what share.”
Enver: He shook his head. "You shouldn't feed in to it. If things go south, she'll take it out on you. Then I will stick her *** in a cage." He nodded his head, dead serious on the statement he said. "It's still strange. Even stranger you're painting pictures for some guy you barely know. Hope he paid you good."
Keara: “Requested I did not coin for my services. A gift it was,” she smiled at her husband, still none the wiser to what the issue was. “Hate me more she would if tried I did for from him to keep. Forbid her I could perhaps for him to see but then discord between us that would bring, and think I do not that she to me would listen. Robert your friend is. Deanna says that he you as a brother does see. Should we not happy for them be?”
Enver: He pulled away from her. "You made him a painting, for free?" Enver moved away from her then with a shake of his head. "Won't even give me a tattoo, but you're off giving your work to someone else. For free." The male scowled as he made his way to their bed and sat on the corner of it. "Sure. Good luck to them. But she comes around and treats you like **** if things go south, like I said. Cage."
Keara: “Of course I that did do. Professional artist in this life I am not. And even if that I were. Charged him I would not. Making Deanna happy he is. Pay him for that I could.” She walked to where he sat and came to rest between his legs having pulled him into her chest and wrapped her arms around his neck. “And tattoo you I shall not for your skin precious to me is. Had that conversation already we have,” she reminded him in a soft, calm voice.
Enver: "Yeah, you wouldn't see the big picture of things. Deanna won't take it out on you, that's for sure." He huffed before his jaw clenched again. "So you'll share your work with everyone but me." He stood and started to pace. "And you don't care that your sister is hanging around Robert, who'll one day more than likely want something more? Something she can't give him?" Another hand ran through his hair as he shook his head. "And if Ven came back? As a wraith, I mean. And started getting ideas like Deanna is getting."
Keara: He was determined to keep himself away from her and so once again as he moved, she followed. “Share my world with you I do, for you my world are. Need I do not for you a painting to gift or tattoo to give.” She blocked his path, cupped his face and forced him to look at her. “Do you for Deanna worry or for me?” Keara attempted to look him in the eyes. “If Ven returned did. Accept he would that I with you am.”
Enver: "Just like that. He'd accept it. Knowing it's possible for Deanna and Robert to be together for however long they're together." He snorted and shook his head. "I doubt he'd be so accepting, beautiful." He sighed. "You, but her. For you. I'm hoping I don't have to say I told you so, but guess we'll just wait and see, won't we?"
Keara: “Deanna her own mate may choose as I mine have. Require she does not my permission for to date. What between them transpires does, my problem is not.” She said sternly. “The same say I can for Ven. While love him I always shall, for he my sire is; you for him I could not trade. No choice does he in that get. No matter what desire he may. You mine are, as I yours am.” She moved to kiss him but hesitated as he had been pulling away from her up until now.
Enver: He sighed and then shrugged. It was like talking to a brick wall. She didn't see what he saw. Not until it'd be too late. "Alright." He let it drop, for the most part before he leaned down and placed a kiss on her lips. She'd see in time. "She best be careful. Anyone finds out their hanging around together, your wraith might find herself in a cage or worse. He's not a well-liked guy. Might be less liked than me." It was all he'd offer on the subject before he circled back to what really bothered him. "Don't think you ever painted me anything." He commented before clearing his throat.
Keara: The kiss he’d given her had her smiling, for a few moments. “If sent away she is, my best I shall do for her to retrieve. Knows that she does.” Keara didn’t like the idea of losing her sister, but then she’d been warned about dating Enver and yet things were fine between them. “Draw and paint I do all the time,” she said entwining both of their hands with one another’s. “Wish you do for me something for you to create?” she asked. “Welcome you are to anything that mad I have to date if that you would please.” She hadn’t considered making anything for him before because most of what she made stayed in their home and that made it his anyway in her eyes.
Enver: "Yeah." He piped up at the suggestion as an arm went around her. "Something nice for the office." He nodded his head. "Would look real nice in one of them." He'd be damned if Pratt could hang something in his place and Enver didn't have something of his own wife's in his possession. "Something that's not me. Might be odd to hang a picture of myself up in my own office." He nodded his head at the suggestion.
Keara: “So what would you like My Love? Draw Gizmo for you perhaps I could,” she teased, knowing he’d likely hate that idea. The thing was, as well as she knew her husband, she had no idea what kind of painting he might want to hang in his office.
Enver: "Hell no." He shook his head and then shrugged. "Surprise me. Nothing of Deanna either. Or Ven." He warned her, half teasing her about the idea. She had more sense than that, he knew, but couldn't resist saying it anyways. "Still don't think you should get in the middle of anything. With painting picture of her." Enver didn't really like sharing his wife, outside of the regular family events and needs and even then, at times he felt people more or less wasted her time when she could be spending it with him; if they had half a brain, like Sara.
Enver: He had been wandering around the asylum, checking out some things for security purposes when he finally came around to noticing something that had sort of been on his mind, was gone. But because it irritated him, the male didn't say anything about it when he heard about the stupid idea. It was stupid to him because Deanna and Robert were involved in this scheme. As well as his wife. That was probably more to the point. He did a quick sweep of their cell, just to see if it really was gone and then frowned. Hey. You finish that art project yet, or did someone come in and take it? Seemed like a stupid question, right? Not to the man who was highly paranoid.This RP takes place on Saturday 17th May 2014.
Keara: Keara was in the middle of sorting out the lockboxes she kept her ritual ingredients in when his message came through. To which project do you refer My Love.
