[ Right, so: here's Pablo, one of this month's new faces, looking an awful lot like A) he just woke up, and B) he just woke up from sleeping in paint. Guess what he did! In fact, it was a paint tray that he slept on -- empty but unwashed -- leaving one side of his face covered in (now dried) yellow paint, which is also in his hair, along with pieces of what looks like confetti and glitter.
He takes his glasses off, looking at the completely paint-obscured left lens. ]
Huh.
[ There was a reason he turned this on, but he has to remember it first... Pablo looks down at his glasses again, off of which he's begun to idly chip paint, then back to the screen. ]
Uh, sorry. I don't want to waste anyone's time or anything. I just had a quick thing I was going to say -- I guess instead I fell asleep and forgot to do it, um, but... anyway.
[ He moves, sitting up (or possibly standing) and holding up the camera so that some furniture is visible behind him: a dresser and bookcase, the kind that usually come with the housing, although his have been painted. The bookcase is gradiented by hand in brushstroky blues and blacks, with thin lines of yellow stars cascading downward like diagonal beaded curtains, whereas the dresser is bright yellow and decorated with cartoony green, magenta, and lavender clouds. There's bits of confetti and glitter dried in with the paint here as well, although not necessarily to bad effect (depending on your opinion of such things, of course). ]
I'm getting rid of this dresser and bookcase, so if anyone wants one, you're welcome to it... uh, obviously for free. I went ahead and painted them since I can't really like, deliver them myself... and I figured that might be a hassle for people. But -- um, well... you know. [ Gesturing vaguely... ] If you want me to repaint either of them with something else, I can do that too. I just want them to go to someone who needs them more than I do, that's all. Well, or wants them more than I do. Either way.
[ Then, after another pause (during which he brushes some glitter from his hair and crunches some paint from his bangs): ]
Oh. Right. Uh, I'm Pablo, by the way. [ He hesitates, then gives the screen a little finger-waggly wave. ] Okay. Sorry -- that's all. Bye.

[ Wait, what? Of all the things Pablo could have anticipated might be said, that suggestion was definitely not among them. ]
Well-- I don't think I even know any... I don't really know anyone yet. Uh, but-- I guess someone else could do that? If they wanted something different.

You're an artist?
video
Well... [ He's hesitant to so boldly proclaim himself as such, but: ] I do a lot of painting.
video
Is that a yes or a no?
video
... Yeah. I guess I am an artist, but-- mostly I just felt like, maybe people would find custom furniture more appealing... you know?

[ on the other hand, solas would probably really hate it here, so maybe not. ]
I don't need them myself, but I'll ask around at work if you like.

[ He says it mostly in a matter-of-fact sort of way, though he smiles a little too so as to not seem like he's ignoring the compliment (which would be rude), or the offer that follows. ]
That'd be really great, actually. But, um, only if you want to... if you do that I'd want to return the favor somehow.

[ a beat, then belatedly: ] I'm Mahanon, by the way. It's nice to meet you, Pablo.

[ He smiles hesitantly, though. It's refreshing, how friendly people are being; he's a little more used to aloofness. ]
You too. I like your name. [ And nice... are those tattoos? Pablo doesn't add that part, or like, stare... at them... just in case they're actually scars or something. ] Um, but-- if you do think of something I can do, you should still let me know. I mean, if you want? It's up to you.

[ Yikes, that's quite a bit of paint he's got there. ]
Keeping busy, I see.
video
Oh -- hey, Karen. [ Pablo nods, crunching a bit more paint from his hair. ] Yeah... trying to. But how are you?
video
[ Just staring at all the paint makes her hallucinate the smell somehow. ]
I'm doing fine, thanks.

You know those aren't technically yours to give, don't you?

He bites down on his lower lip a bit idly, arms both folding back to cup at the sides of his neck. ]
I... actually didn't think of that, even though-- um, well, now that you mention it that seems super obvious. [ A beat. ] It should be okay if I replace them though, right?
video.
Well, it is essentially furnished, rent-free housing. I'm sure if we were asked to make any sort of security deposit, or any sort of liability agreement whatsoever, there might be more incentive to show some propriety to the property.
[ She switches gears, looking more pensive as she considers it further. ]
Then again, I don't know if there's any real precedent for punishing this sort of thing, it's not easily enforceable to begin with. I'm sure it's frowned upon, but I don't know if they'll actually do anything about it.
