Ekaterina Vespucci has posed:
Ekaterina Vespucci's gallery in New York was an interesting building with alot of natural lighting. The place has universally white decor enhancing the illumination given from the plexiglass ceiling. A very modern buiulding but the art by way of contrast is renaissance style all the way barring a handful of exceptions. Plenty of artistic nudes and historical landscapes. Some images refer to long dead mythologies that could date back to the Hyborean age. It is a very open planned structure. Ekaterina herself is doing a display on Marble sculpting in a messier part of the gallery. A small crowd watches on in fascination as Kat lays down the fundamentals of marble sculpting.

"Okay now we are done pitching the stone - we need a general idea of the shape we are sculpting it into and we move to using a toothed or clawed chisel. I happen to have one here. This will move us closer to the shape that we want." Kat is up on a step ladder evening out a rough humanoid sculpture into something as of yet undefined. Some of her other work is scattered around. It is frightening detailed like Kat is some form of modern day marble transmuting Medusa. She is waiting a meeting but figures she has a few more moments to finish her display. Perhaps the old art is redundant now 3D printers exist. But Kat is a romantic and holds on to the old ways.

Red Robin has posed:
After a morning of doing abit of business, mostly for Drake Software since they are starting to get into trying their hand at a VR MMO, Tim is wearing a rather expensive business suit. He walks into the Gallery and actualy admires the paintings on display, before making his way to Ekaterina's Marble Gallery.

Leaning against a pillar as he watches her with a very impressed eye, he wears a black Itallian suit and tie with a white undershirt, and a pair of mirror shined black shoes, his sunglasses (some swiss company) are tucked into his coat pocket as he checks his rollex. It's odd to see him dressed up as such, but not out of place, he could pass for Bruce Wayne's Legitimate son, well, if Bruce was with a Koren woman, since tim is in fact, half Korean.

Though, right now it's not about him, it's about Kat and that sculpture, he does admire people who put their best forward.

Ekaterina Vespucci has posed:
Ekaterina is dressed rather differently as regard standars when looking at Tim as the baseline. She is in a battered up art schmock with marble dust all over her. In her hair on her clothing and anywhere else anyone cares to look. By way of contrast today her figure is occluded beneath the heavy clothing. She notices Tim and ends her public lesson with, "Lat's take a break people I have a meeting I have to attend." She bounces down from her perch offering her hand to Tim to shake or whatever else he wants to do with it.

"Sorry for my appearance. I had promised to give a practical demonstration of Marble sculpting to some students from my Community college course and this was the day. I got carried away." Her bright cornflower blue anime size eyes look up at Tim, "You wanted to collaborate?"

Red Robin has posed:
"Yes, It's getting close to Christmas time, and I as thinking a charity stream to raise money for toys so the children who are in hospital can have a christmas to look forward to." Tim says and also smiles at her. "And your apearance is nothing to be sorry about, you are passionate about your art, and I think it's fetching." He says with a smile. "Besides, This was because I had to meet a few backers and publishers today, I doubt a sleevless shirt and cargo pants would have been propper for a high level meeting like that."

Ekaterina Vespucci has posed:
"I'm kind of reluctant to shake hands in my state though I must admit. I am dirty more than I am clean I am afraid. My passion is s dirty one. Lots of dust, paint and chemicals." Kat cant's her head, "A charity stream? I've never done one. It seems more your sort of field. What would you need me for? Surely not just eye candy? You could do better than me."

Red Robin has posed:
Tim Drake smiles at Kat and shakes his head. "I once spend six hours trying to completely fiber wire wayne manor so that we could have awesome internet, because I didn't trust someone from the cable company. Bruce thought I dyed my hair white once I was done... found an old panic room that was used way before Bruce was born." Well the house is old. "Kat, I doubt I could do better than you, or anyone could, you're smart, beautiful and you care. Besides, it's just playing video games, I was thinking historical based games." He says with a smile as he turns to look at her. "Besides, I have a feeling that you are one of the few people who can keep up with me mentally.' he says as he absently reaches a hand up to gently wipe away a bit of dust from her cheek and brush a strand of hair back. "You'd be a good reprisentation of a female gamer, as well as helping the children, two good things."

Ekaterina Vespucci has posed:
Kat blushes slightly under the dust she might be over 1000 years old but she does have a real capacity to be bashful. "Okay well color me flattered," she says, "Historical games? There's something you should know about me - I do tend to flame war when it comes to history. I did not like the recent 'authentic' rather than 'accurate' redux from SEGA's Total War. You might even think I had lived through the events they have butchered. But I can play along. I might just come off as a Louis Law with the history." Kat manages the base level of deception there with regard to her immortality. "If that can be tolerated - and I suppose I am pretty diplomatic about it then I am your girl."

Red Robin has posed:
"Oh trust me, i made the mistake of playing a game which had a Ninja on it, since I read alot, the depiction was so bad that I made a rant video about it. Also I'm going to pick out a few goods ones, like Ac: Odyssey, and probable Feudal." he says and blinks at her as she says she's his girl, he knows what she means, but harmless flirting is never a bad thing. "My girl? If you were my girl I'd be the luckiest man alive."

Ekaterina Vespucci has posed:
"Going back a bit earlier than my time with AC: Odyssey but I think I can stand it," Kat is mums on Feudal, "Kingdom Come Deliverence was super unfortunate in it's accuracy. Even the psychadelic orgy with Satanist women who wanted to repel the Cumans was a little too spot on." Kat raises her eyebrow at the further compliment, "I think you might reconsider that statement if you truly knew me. Are you after more than a collaboration Tim? Do you want a date?"

Red Robin has posed:
Tim nods. "Yeah, that game was... well, it was special." He says and tilts his head at her, the real her? He knows what the real her is already, though he does find it endearing that she is trying to hide that... though he has secrets of his own... hello my name is tim and I moonlight as a vigilante and an one of the world's top martial artists... yeah, you'd never beleive it, but it's true. "I'm not -after- a date, but I also wouldn't turn one down, I mean the collab was simply a collab, but I'd be lying if is said that the idea hadn't crossed my mind." he says with a smile and tilts his head. "How about tomorrow night? Pick you up here?"

Ekaterina Vespucci has posed:
"Well," Kat says offering a weak smile, "Y'know the answer was going to be yes - but if you want to meet me halfway there and race to the conclusion." She sighs. "I own a bar you know Aeternum. We could meet there? Apart from the staff I am super unknown as the owner. The owner is some super recluse known as thew Contessa by most accounts. Have a drink and then go whereever?"

Red Robin has posed:
"That sounds like a good idea, just make sure mine doesn't have any alcohal in it." he says with a smile. "My korean heritage makes it hard to process any hard drinks." Though he can guzzle energy drinks like a pro, and does. "And I wasn't sure the answer was going to be yes, but since it is a yes, it's made today a very good day, and tomorrow might be better than today." he says with a smile as he looks like he is trying to hold back just how happy he is, though, a perceptive person can tell he his disposition is quite positive.

Ekaterina Vespucci has posed:
"Well," Kat starts again, "I'd say 'don't get your hope up' but for the sake of your optimism 'get your hopes up.'" Kat grins. "Just a warning - I do drink - sometimes alot. Depending upon the buffer I need given the news I am recieving. My employees often find it quite insuffereable. But for the most part like you I am a stimulant person. Alot of late night coffee."

Red Robin has posed:
Tim smiles. "You can drink as much as you want, I won't judge. I know that trying to do alot of things can run a person regged, though, my way of dealing with it is different from most people." Well, maybe not, when he get really overwhelmed, he does the hardest workout he can find, then sleeps for abit after a hour long shower. "And coffee is wonderful. I really like those small cafes, or late night diners, ya know, with the fire breathing waitresses that have 'no time for your sillyness'." he says with a smile, grante,d in New York those are probably a dime a dozen.

Ekaterina Vespucci has posed:
"I do have a small place in Times Square - but the waitresses are quite fine - it is the customers who seem to quite like walking right over me. Had a 'Todd' who knocked my coffee onto me. This young knight in shining armor got a disingenous apology out of him before he left." She could go on about a rude Angel of the Lord who accompanied said 'knight' but that was an awkwared conversation for later.

Red Robin has posed:
"Rudeness, the world would be better served if people thought about more than themselves." Tim says as he looks at her and smiles. "Morale supiriority isn;t a truth if someone wishes to act like a jerk, kinda tosses the 'I'm better than you' idea out the window." he says as he turns to look at her. "So, meet you at your bar, we have a few cocktails..." Though a virgin bloody mary does sound nice. "...and then go on from there?" He asks as he tilts his head. "Trust me, I wont dress like this.." he says motioning to homself. "I'll be less... black tie."

Ekaterina Vespucci has posed:
"It's a date." Kat almost forgets to throw in, "An we are doing the collaboration?" Or was that just an excuse for the meeting to get the date. Social interactions were a matter of confusing obfuscation nowadays.

Red Robin has posed:
Tim Drake smiles. "Of course we are! Have to help the children." he says with a wink, and before walking of, takes abit of courage and leans forward and kisses her cheek. "See you Tomorrow." He says as he turns and heads out, now... to figure out what's next on the agenda for today...
