A big smile melted off Rune, dripping sticky and inviting as an ice cream cone in Georgia. ”Don’t worry! I’m not too fond of Americans either. So loud and annoying!” She burst out laughing, and shot Alek a glance over one shoulder. The sudden eruption of laughter outside made him look up, but he scowled and went back to work.
Rune dabbed at something at the corner of her eye, careful to not smudge the pencil-thin graphite line rimming her lids only to attempt a few lid flutters to get whatever had floated into her eyeball on out of the way. ”I’m Rune. Rune Marx. It’s good to meet’ya Thal-i-a.” She emphasized Thalia’s name, trying to make sure she repeated the pronunciation correctly.
”I’d totally love to have it, but its ok, I probably couldn’t afford it anyway. That and I also have this other issue of not having a wall to hang it on....I’m still looking for a place to live.” Rune carefully tasted the coffee then, more like inhaling the very surface than actually taking a sip, and briefly watched the people crossing the street nearby. A little spot of red rubbed onto the cup when she was done, but she didn’t seem to notice.. “It is great though. I love the flowers. And the style! It’s perfect! You should think about doing tattoo design.”
