I Follow The Path Of Ptah

People watching was the most fun ever. It showed Sadie other sides of people she wouldn’t be shown normally. She had taken a special liking to stalking— rather, watching Adrian. Sometimes he did weird things with his hands, or he said something that he normally wouldn’t, or did something really cute that he would never do in front of her because he may have thought it wasn’t cool or whatever. Like speaking in some foreign language that Sadie only took as humorous gibberish or walking into walls.

Adrian had a habit of walking or running into walls, and it had everything to do with being distracted easily with whatever was on his mind. Rather it be thinking about how cute a girl was, to his research, it didn't usually matter. If there was more than one subject on his mind, he was probably going to run into a wall that day.

Your character has got one free pass to ask my character anything, and they must answer truthfully, and afterwards my character will forget the conversation. How does your character use it?

He rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly at the comment.

Fairness does not mean everyone gets the same. Fairness means everyone gets what they need.

Oh, Gods, had the lie been too see-through? No, he wasn’t giving her the ‘I know you’re lying’ look. So…was he just zoning out. Well, if he was, Alyx sure wasn’t going to disturb him. She followed close behind him, though, not wanting to get lost. That had happened before and it was pretty scary, to be truthful.

                   Adrian did that a lot. He would zone out at the more random times to think about whatever the person had said through. There were many reasons why it happened, one being when he was in disbelief of something but had no reason not to believe them. That had been one of those moments. He didn't focus too much on it to zone out completely, thankfully, so he just put the thought aside as he escorted her to the Greek section.

She had to think quickly, coming up with a lie that would suffice. “I helped uncover and collect the artifacts. Plus, I’m kind of an expert on them. I’ll know.” Alyx smiled and tucked a piece of teal hair behind her ear. “You know, a little guidance would be nice.”

                   "I see." He nodded, thinking about the words carefully. He wasn't too sure when the artifacts were discovered exactly, but he'd believe it. He'd met people around his age who had helped discover some of the artifacts here.

                   Well that was certainly helpful. "I'm gonna need a bit more description than that."

"Pity," She shrugged. "Y’know, this be the moment in which ya give yer name. ‘S only good form."

                   "Um..I did. I was waiting for you to introduce yourself.." He replied a little uneasy.

Alyx raised an eyebrow and looked over at the boy that had spoken. “Well, it looks like there might be a few promising artifacts from one of the temples of Poseidon. That’s all I’m interested in. And if they’re fake, I’ll know.”

                   He shifted a bit where he stood, showing a bit of interest in her comment. "Poseidon..hm..well I work as a volunteer here, if you'd like I can take you to the casing. Might I ask on how you would know?"

"Damn dude, yer all kinds o’ familiar. Despite the fact I ain’t never seen ya before now."

Send me "that’s dirty" and I will generate a number for what my muse will say to yours.
