[It's not a purposeful trap. After all, Angela isn't the type that particularly enjoys defending her personal choices, in public or in private. And if she ever gave two shits about what complete strangers at other tables thought of her, she wouldn't start now.]
Well, it depends on what the era and trends were at a particular moment in time. The farther back you go, the more religious iconery you'll find. He, on the other hand, was known better for his nude figures than for Christ. It just worked out that way for him.
[There was a slightly wistful tone in that statement but it was not a line of thought he continued.]
The religions of various worlds are of less interest to me than what was born of one's own inspiration, without the pressure of outside authorities. Although they may be beautiful I cannot help but wonder what state of mind the artist found themselves in when conscripted to speak on behalf of the divine. The message is not easily translated.
[She's going to leave a mark on the world--not Ariel in specific because she doesn't care enough about this place to want to stay here and back it up--but her home world. Come hell or high water, she's going to leave something other than death and sadness for people to look at.
She sips at her wine again, smirking because what she says next will say a lot about the life Angela's lived.]
As for their state of mind, I can't say anything about them for sure, but my personal experience meant there were some illicit substances involved.
[Huh. She sounded intelligent so he hadn't pegged her as that type of unfortunate person. His gaze dropped to the wine glass. Hopefully she wasn't also the type who indulged too much or too often.]
Do you find inspiration so infrequent that you must resort to such tactics? Or is there another reason?
[His repeating of her words pulls her up short and the smirk fades, replaced with a more neutral look. Depending on who defines the term, it could be too much or too often, but in either Angela has final say on how she defines it.]
I don't do it for inspiration. It happens that I get inspired while resorting to such tactics for unrelated reasons. [She's not a fan of his words, having experienced people judging her living methods before.] Is that going to be a problem?
[Leaving it at 'unrelated reasons' was fine. Thus far she had shown no indications of poor judgment and her choice in recreation was irrelevant as long as she wasn't foolish enough to let it affect a lesson.]
No, likely not. That is, if you have decided to accept my proposal. Should we discuss compensation?
i dont really go showing it off to everyone ...jean said that its something that half the city would sell their arm to own though and the other half would sell an arm to ride it but i dont think theyd really do that
i dont want anyone to sell any arms for it! i just... never thought it was ever such a big deal even when jean and marco and the others say it i mean its not like i paid for it its just... me.
hange said something sort of like that. she said itd be easy for me to hit, uh... she called it a g spot? sorta like how guys have a spot like that in their butts or at least thats how i kinda see it.

but i guess i really am right up your alley i mean i still dont know how big it is when its hard but i showed my friend compared to the tv remote we have in the house and it was about that size.
