"I don't know if it needs the person painting to be magic, or if it's about
the paints or the brushes or - but I guess even if they don't move, it'll
still look nice, right...?"
True, it might involve....unicorns or nudity or something, but it won't be
the (figurative or literal) car wreck that someone like Bill would come up
with.
"She doesn't talk to me often. I think she thinks she's...too much for me?"
Whereas he's out here getting his nails painted, and colonising public
spaces for the arts, and trying to counsel Quentin through his failing
homosexual menage a trois. He thinks nowadays he could just about handle
her.

"What's the difference between a good doorknob and a bad doorknob."

Date: 2018-10-04 07:52 am (UTC)"I think any kind is fine as long as it works," Credence says, sincerely, and informed by a history of households with nonfunctional door closures.

Date: 2018-10-04 10:00 am (UTC)But they'll have to figure them out.
"Next port. How's yours going?"
no subject
Date: 2018-10-04 10:18 am (UTC)"Um. Slowly, I guess. I've been doing a lot more work around the ship - you know, the dinner shift, our maintenance things."
It still feels selfish to be expending much effort on himself.
no subject
Date: 2018-10-04 10:53 am (UTC)He proposes, because;
"I want to learn more about this."
no subject
Date: 2018-10-04 11:19 am (UTC)Credence nods.
"I think I'd like....blue, for my room. And green, or yellow."
Light, outdoorsy colors.
no subject
Date: 2018-10-04 11:48 am (UTC)Because that's a lot for a room.
"Want to do that tomorrow?"
no subject
Date: 2018-10-04 11:53 am (UTC)Credence nods and tries to rein it in a bit.
"Maybe...green for the bedroom and blue for the bathroom?"
All he's got in there is his toilet and sink, but he's still bored of it being white.
no subject
Date: 2018-10-04 12:12 pm (UTC)He could just make an executive decision.
"It's basically our hall."
no subject
Date: 2018-10-04 04:12 pm (UTC)Credence twitches a nervous laugh, then sobers.
"I remember, at Hogwarts - in the breach. The pictures, the paintings, they moved. I don't know if we could do that with a wall, maybe."
Slowly drifting clouds, or rolling waves, or swaying grass.

Date: 2018-10-05 12:19 am (UTC)"I'll do the math tonight, see what I can figure out."
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 02:07 am (UTC)Credence smiles fleetingly.
"...we might need someone who's good at that kind of painting, if you're not? I know I can't do that sort of thing."
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 02:19 am (UTC)He says, perking up ever so slightly.
"We could do a few around, let people take different pieces."
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 07:22 am (UTC)Credence nods readily.
"I don't know if it needs the person painting to be magic, or if it's about the paints or the brushes or - but I guess even if they don't move, it'll still look nice, right...?"
Nothing wrong with stationary murals.

Date: 2018-10-05 10:47 am (UTC)He says, because Jesus.
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 11:19 am (UTC)"....I didn't want to say that we might want to not let Bill paint," Credence admits. But Cipher isn't the only one who might cause trouble.
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 12:07 pm (UTC)Frowning, thoughtfully.
"Who's one person we can ask to do one scene?"
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 12:14 pm (UTC)"...I'm sure Miss Wildthyme can paint."
True, it might involve....unicorns or nudity or something, but it won't be the (figurative or literal) car wreck that someone like Bill would come up with.
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 12:55 pm (UTC)He thinks she'd like that.
"I don't tell her I appreciate her often enough."
no subject

Date: 2018-10-05 01:01 pm (UTC)So yeah, good call Iris.
"But that doesn't mean she's not a nice lady. Let's do it."
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 01:06 pm (UTC)"Okay. I'll contact her?"
Just to...prove that he can, if nothing else.
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 01:21 pm (UTC)He doesn't want Iris's art in his room, sorry.
"A stairwell?"
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 01:42 pm (UTC)Credence nods. "Near the maintenance room? Then it'll be easier to get supplies back and forth."
Not that heavy lifting presents a problem for either of them - maybe not Iris either, for all he knows - but still.
no subject
Date: 2018-10-05 01:59 pm (UTC)He says, with a nod.
"Tomorrow- I've really do gotta do that math."
It won't be a quick process.
