GGaD » (@Spec) Peaceful day at the park, wouldn't you say?

Echowo · July 24, 2020 11:56:02

"Hmm, well, I guess most of my days are spent painting... so yea!" Francis cheerfully nodded. "What about you? What do you like to do?"

SpecterTheGreat · July 24, 2020 13:57:17

Dion shrugged. "I do stuff. Not painting though."

Echowo · July 24, 2020 21:08:58

(Is Dion's robotic arm visible?)

"Not everyone enjoys painting, so that's understandable."

SpecterTheGreat · July 24, 2020 23:46:46

((Yeah, he's not wearing gloves))

Dion just started opening another chocolate.

Echowo · July 25, 2020 21:14:04

"Your arm is cool, the robotic one," Francis said, a slight tilt to his head. "Hmm, I haven't painted metal in a while, so this shall be quite interesting. Thank you so much for letting me paint you!"

Francis seems very happy.

SpecterTheGreat · July 26, 2020 00:39:58

((Not related to this thread but @Echo ))

"Cool?" Dion echoed, stopping his action to gaze at his wrist.

Echowo · July 26, 2020 15:55:23

"Yep! It's cool," Francis smiled.

(Not related to this thread but 👁👄👁)

SpecterTheGreat · July 27, 2020 13:03:56

((okay okay stop it with that face XD))

He made a soft noise of agreement. Dion clenched his hand and stuck it into his pocket.
With the other one, he finished opening the sweet's package.

Echowo · July 27, 2020 13:54:45

(Okaaaay XD)

"Hmm, hmm, hmm," Francis hummed for a moment before asking a question.

"Do you like animals?"

SpecterTheGreat · July 27, 2020 14:17:12

"I think I don't mind them?" Dion shrugged while remembering some stray cats he'd seen earlier that day.

Echowo · July 27, 2020 14:30:01

"I love animals. They're so cute," Francis said happily. "I have a lovebird! His name is Mango."

Francis seemed to be trying to keep the conversation going.

SpecterTheGreat · July 27, 2020 14:45:25

"What is a lovebird?" Dion asked. "I know it's a bird species, but what does it look like?"

Francis' eyes lit up in the pure joy of explaining.

"Oh! They're a type of small parrot with real bright colours. The one I have is orange and yellow on the head, face, and a bit on the chest while the rest is a nice shade of bright green."

SpecterTheGreat · July 27, 2020 17:22:02

"Sounds pretty."

Echowo · July 27, 2020 17:50:05

"Emm-hmm, very pretty," Francis agreed. "Mango likes to chirp and sing a lot."

SpecterTheGreat · July 31, 2020 14:47:15

"Do you keep Mango in a cage? Birds might fly away otherwise."

Echowo · July 31, 2020 14:58:03

"Yep!"

SpecterTheGreat · August 3, 2020 17:27:47

"Huh. I guess it must be cute to have a bird. That's nice." Dion tilted his head. "How's the painting going?"

Echowo · August 3, 2020 17:37:13

"Almost done," Francis answered.

SpecterTheGreat · August 7, 2020 14:20:09

"Great! And how'd you paint so quickly?" He asked, moving a bit to the side to see if he could peek at the canvas.

Echowo · August 12, 2020 21:27:01

(I'm pretty sure I haven't really narrated anything about Francis' hands and I'm too lazy to check sO here we go)

"Oh? Oh! I use both hands," Francis smiled, holding both his hands up for Dion to see. He was holding two paint brushes, one in each hand. His fingernails were painted lavender, and he had a noticeable, black-ink, geometrical tattoo on the top of his left hand that extended to his wrist.

"My easel has a little thing on it that's like a tiny table so I can set my paints and stuff down, which allows me to use both my hands to paint with! I'm ambidextrous. I also just paint a lot, which I guess helps with me painting fast."

Francis noticed what Dion was doing and calmly asked, "Is it okay if I not show you yet? I get embarrassed when showing people art that isn't finished yet."

SpecterTheGreat · August 13, 2020 16:55:42

((How does he paint with two brushes this guy is a PRO))

"That's neat," Dion said with a slow nod of amazement. "So you paint quickly and well, huh? Sure. I guess I can wait for a bit longer."

Echowo · August 13, 2020 18:45:45

(He has become one with art XD)

"Ah, thank you!"

Francis continued on with painting.

SpecterTheGreat · August 28, 2020 17:30:28

((10/10 admiration :0))

"Do you just paint all day?"

Echowo · August 28, 2020 19:41:38

(uwu)

"Yep! It calms me, to be honest. Heh, it's kinda like an addiction, in a way."

SpecterTheGreat · August 28, 2020 20:11:58

He nodded a little bit, eating another chocolate while shifting in his seat.
"So, kind of like a good addiction? Is that possible?"

Echowo · August 28, 2020 20:25:26

"Yep! It's possible to get addicted to anything, even good types of things. For some people, it's music; for other's it's dancing. For me, it's painting. Although, I do other types of art too, but painting's my main."

After a bit, Francis smiled sheepishly, "All done, uh, wanna see?"

Echowo · September 16, 2020 20:20:14

(Y e e t)

SpecterTheGreat · September 17, 2020 00:13:25

Dion was thinking if he should say something to the first sentences. But, "Of course I want to see!"
He perked up like a spring.

Echowo · September 17, 2020 20:41:09

"The paint is still drying, but-" Francis turned the canvas/easel to face Dion.

The painting, somehow, was extremely detailed and realistic, the colors vibrant and the shading on point. He had painted all around Dion, including the background, grass, and so on.

How did Francis create such a painting in such a short span of time?!

"-I think it's pretty decent!"
