Stroke 1: Video SN: Bellsareme
[The video clicks on with a blond woman sitting in a window in the communal residence. Well, half in the window, she's got one nearly naked leg braced against the window sill, and her other is dangling off below her. She's holding a black cigarette in one hand, and the device in the other. An oversized white shirt men's shirt, splattered with paint streaks covers a black cami and a rather small pair of shorts below it. When she speaks, it's after taking a drag of the clove and her voice has a subtle New York accent in it.]
So, kidnapped to a moon yada yada yada, got that. Things I need to know: where do they sell cloves for the love of fuck because if I have to quit smoking on top of all of this I'm going to lose my fragile little mind. Two: how does one go about finding studio space for artists. Clearly this whole camp set up isn't going to work for that especially because I'm supposed to be a freelance fine artist for my assigned job.
And three, at the risk of being redundant, I've heard there's all sorts of fun adults only things going on. So tell me, is lingerie night at Trixie's all it's cracked up to be? I never can turn down an excuse to be wearing stockings and heels.
Oh yeah, I'm Julia Bellamy. Just Julia, mmkay?
[She doesn't want to get into a fight on her first day here, so there's a warning about that.]

[His lips pull down, like he's puzzled he even needs to tell her this. It's true he isn't wearing his jacket with the arm band and symbol, but the LED is usually enough to clue people in]
no subject
That explains it. The prettiness I mean. Nothing like that can be man made. At least not without a whole shit ton of money.
no subject
The man who designed me is very rich.

[Julia may be tracing his head with the cigarette in her hand, using the smoke as ink on nothing while she considered.]
What did he design you for, sweetie?
no subject
no subject
[Not that Julia has thought about this a lot with her dad. Nope. Not at all.]
no subject
No, it isn't wasteful. Carl was sad after his accident; he had no desire to paint. But after I was with him for a while, he started painting again and he was happier. That isn't a waste.
no subject
I think you misunderstood me sweetie. I meant it was wasteful because you're much too pretty to just be the caretaker at the end of someone's life. But I'm glad it made someone start painting again. I can't imagine not being able to paint.
[Actually, she can, but that's not a period of time she's going to talk about. No one has unlocked her backstory as of yet.]
no subject
If you do need assistance finding art supplies, let me know.
no subject
[Julia is deep in thought, and she takes another drag of the clove, leaning back out the window to do it.]
Do you paint?
no subject
I painted before. Mostly I helped clean Carl's studio and retrieved his supply orders. [And watched him paint, but she doesn't like that, so Markus won't offer it to her]
no subject
[There's a weight in the question as she watches him, with one blond brow moving to her hairline. Jules knows what it is to miss something like this.]

Do you want to do it?

I could try.

What sort of things did you paint before?
no subject
no subject
That's how a lot of people start actually. Copying. I still do it from time to time if I'm bored.
What did you picture?
