curiosity tinges his mostly flat gaze -- the only discernible emotion to be found in a face devoid of any recognizable ones. he taps at the screen with a finger, leaving a dull red, faint fingerprint and then turns his attention on the keypad. he simply stares at it, then back at the screen for several seconds before a flicker of recognition and the makings of a good idea--his only idea--show themselves.
words follow soon enough.]
