Who: Duncan, Adora and Keagan When: Sunday morning, March 9th, 2008 Where: The spare art room What: Duncan and Adora hold Keagan for "detention" simply so he'll come clean about his age. OOC NOTE: This is done as an AIM chat room convo only because we all knew it was gonna be heavy dialogue and this would go SO MUCH FASTER.
(.... On a second note, my "What" description sounds HELLA dirty.)
keaganunbound: *At 9:55 Sunday morning, Keagan begrugingly makes his way to the art room for his detention* AdoreMyDemon: *Adora has beaten him there and is waiting, sitting on top of one of the desks with a cup of coffee* inmemoriapoena: *Duncan was dressed more down than usual, with comfortably dingy sneakers and a thermal longsleeve undershirt beneath a printed tee. He had brought coffee for Adora, who remained step ahead and now had two cups for herself. He too had beaten Keagan there.* keaganunbound: Hello, Miss Adora.... Professor Boyard. *sits down in one of the student desks, seems kind of like a man ready to face his doom* AdoreMyDemon: *Takes a sip of coffee and sits back, clicking her tongue* Okay, let me start out by saying that the reason I pulled you in here and not into my office is because I don't feel the need to spead this to the entire school, or even to Hope. But, you do need to come clean and let us know what's going on. inmemoriapoena: *Shrugs.* It's just polite, at this point, now that we've outed you. keaganunbound: *Takes a deep breath* I am much older than 18, yes. But I lost track of humanity in the late 70s and I really did live in a cave since 1980. I knew it would be easier to earn about about modern culture and the changes in society if people thought I was young and naieve. I didnt want people to treat me differently. AdoreMyDemon: *nods* I can understand that, but... this is something at least a few of us should have known. *Sighs, takes another sip of her coffee* How old are we talking? *Clears throat* Keagan, the reason we're asking is because it's a security issue. inmemoriapoena: *Eyebrow arches a little, but remains quiet, staring at the not-boy.* keaganunbound: *knows he could be difficult and lie again, looks between the two of them and sighs* I was born in 1150.... BC. AdoreMyDemon: *Jaw drops a little* Judas Priest. *Covers her face with her hand* inmemoriapoena: *Chokes a little on coffee, lets out a high pitched laugh.* Holy shit! What th'hell are you doing HERE? This is like me going to a Miley Cyrus concert for musical inspiration. keaganunbound: I could tell you more than you ever wanted to know about the history of the world before 1980, but all the things that the students, that most humans take for granted now, I have less knowlege than an infant. Even teachers occasionally need to be students. *Looks up at them seriously* I mean no harm to any of the students, I just dont want people to treat me differently because I am older. AdoreMyDemon: *Deep breath, thoughtful look* You're trying to find a way to acclimatize here. You figured by being surrounded by students you'd get back into the lingo, learn the technology. inmemoriapoena: And so you're here simply because you want to be? *Suspicious.* keaganunbound: When I came out of the cave back on January 2nd, I couldn't even buy a bus pass, things had changed so much. I thought about buying a car, but looking inside one at a car lot was like looking into something from Star Trek. But attending a school with average humans was out of the picture in case anything like this happens. AdoreMyDemon: *clicking her tongue, thinking it over. Glances over at Duncan, grabs his shirt sleeve and gently tugs* Keagan, give us a sec. *Pulls him over a little ways away* What do you think of this? *Sips her coffee* inmemoriapoena: *Matching her volume.* I think if he was born during the BC era he's figured out a way to hear us from a few feet away. keaganunbound: I have, but I've also learned to ignore this. *Smiles very slightly, in a way that if he knew who Dumbledore was would be very Dumbledorish* AdoreMyDemon: *Shoots a look over at Keagan, holding a finger up* Shush, you. Give me the illusion that I can discuss you without you paying attention. *Looks back at Duncan* No, seriously, I'm debating whether or not we should tell Hope about this. If this guy's really that old, then he should be teaching class here, not attending it. inmemoriapoena: *Blinks at Adora, who clearly just heard Keagan admit to hearing them, then turns his head, doll-like, back to Keagan.* We are telling Hope, because we have jobs. Actually, you're telling Hope. This way, if you come up with some nefarious plot against the school that doesn't involve you blowing us away with your knowledge and handsome smile, our arses are covered. *Looks to Adora with an expression indicated there really isn't a better option in his opinion.* keaganunbound: The headmistress is already aware of my true age. I was truthful on my application to the school. I also asked her to keep it secret, and explained my intentions and she seemed to understand. *deep breath* If I meant to come here with a nefarious plot, I would have applied to teach so I'd have a position of power over students. AdoreMyDemon: She knows? *Pinches the bridge of her nose with her fingers while she tries to think* I may have to kill her. Can't believe I helped her drunken ass back to the campus. *Sighs. Clearly looking a little shot down as she's not suspicious now* inmemoriapoena: *Has been fighting to hold back laughter since Keagan's previous 'learned to ignore it' comment.* WELL THEN. Clearly the only problem we have now is that you're too handsome. Let's get on with our day off, mmm? *Looks between the two of them, holding his coffee up.* keaganunbound: So... you arent going to try to railroad me out of the school now for having been less than truthfull? Because I rather like it here. AdoreMyDemon: I... well... *Looks to Duncan, then Keagan, trying to search for words* I wasn't planning on running you out in the first place. inmemoriapoena: *Holds hands up, in surrending fashion.* I was just curious. keaganunbound: *Smiles some* Good. I was afraid people would treat me differently if they knew I was older than most of their ancestors and some of their gods. People act oddly once they know you saw the Parthenon built. AdoreMyDemon: *Eyebrow raises* Really? You did? See, I was actually more curious to find out about the arists you've worked with. *Walks over to him, patting his shoulder* I'd gladly make you coffee to hear your take on art. inmemoriapoena: *Eyebrow arch.* keaganunbound: Uhm, I've worked with a lot, particularly in the 15th and 16th centuries. Da Vinci, Michaelangelo... You actually arent the first people to place me based on my face looking like a peice of art, though most of the others were off that one damned sculpture. AdoreMyDemon: Which... damn... sculpture? *Looks him over for a second, catches him at the right angle and pauses. Eyes go wide, eyebrows go up* No. Noooo. inmemoriapoena: *Squint.* Holy. Fucking. Shit. *Laughing now, unable to help it.* keaganunbound: To be fair, I never thought that it would be that famous a statue, let alone one of the most famous in the world. *shrug* It's why after the high Italian renaissance, I switched to literature and politics. Less graven images. AdoreMyDemon: La David! *laughs* Of course, I can't... believe it. *Laughing, looks him over, then pauses. Glances decidedly to his crotch, then flicks her eyes back up* Um... it's... it's not really that small... is it? I mean... La David is decidedly... um... lacking. inmemoriapoena: ADORA. *Mouth open.* Don't answer her, Keagan. keaganunbound: *Blushes scarlet* No! Uhm... that was more.... uh... to suit the desires of his Patron.... who was.... and then the Vatican modesty.... I can't not answer a question like that. It's a matter of manly pride. AdoreMyDemon: *Nods, then looks to Duncan, holding her hands up* What? It was a legitimate question! I just... had to make sure. *Clears her throat, then looks back at him* Good to know. I was just curious. inmemoriapoena: *Rubbing at his face with his hand.* Nnngh. keaganunbound: As for my thoughts on art, Miss Adora, I am fond of classical sculpture, most Renaissance and Manerist styles. I found the portrature of the 18th century to be rather self serving, but the return to classical themes over religious themes was very nice. I found Art Noveau and expressionism beautiful, Art Deco and surrealism facinating, I nearly cried during Snow White and Sleeping Beauty because it was like watching a painting come to life, but I have little love of what people call modern art. AdoreMyDemon: *Smiles, slowly has a seat beside him at one of the desks, completely and utterly enthralled. A gorgeously enraptured kind of expression.* I loved surrealism. I spent a good amount of what money I had to go meet Magritte and work with him. *She smiles* I saw that painting that was Goya with your face on it. I always wondered what he was like. inmemoriapoena: *Had clapped after Keagan's speech, and now sitting again.* You're stuck now, friend. keaganunbound: *raises an eyebrow* I'm sure you've both lived interesting lives. I didnt really know Goya that well, I just met him as I was passing through Spain after I left the new United States. He thought I had very classic features. AdoreMyDemon: *Chuckles a little* I suppose you could say my life was interesting. I've spent most of it learning from other masters of art mediums, and travelling. Lots of travel. inmemoriapoena: *Shrugs, comes to a stand before sipping coffee.* Crisis averted, then? There's a nap I need to meet in my apartment. keaganunbound: I believe so. I'm glad it turned out not to be a crisis... for me at least. AdoreMyDemon: *Looks over at Duncan, sticking her tongue out at him* Fine. Go nap, you lazy bum. *Glances over at Keagan* IF you wouldn't mind, I would really like to keep talking to you. I have another detention to give around 1, but I'm free until then. inmemoriapoena: *Ambling toward door.* Fine, stay here... *glance to Adora* Talk art. Psh. I will talk to you both later. keaganunbound: Have a good day, Professor Boyard! I'll see you on Tuesday for class. AdoreMyDemon: *Smiles at Duncan, waves* Go nap, give me a call if you want to hang out or anything. inmemoriapoena: *Laugh.* Call me Duncan. Please. *To Adora.* Bye, you. *Leaves.*
