[Ariadne has started to make herself at home in Arthur's loft; when the video cuts in, one can see quite a few papers already scattered about. Ariadne herself is looking rather determined in her cheery yellow scarf. She clears her throat - she's been thinking about what she's going to say for a while now.]Hey, everyone. So, I haven't been here long

[Here, have a curious blonde teen. She's currently in what looks like a small storage area full of building supplies, actually, with a clipboard in her hand covered in ancient greek symbols.]

An architect. Hey, so am I.

[Ariadne's face kind of lights up. Because, all right! Someone to geek out with and maybe they could work together!]

Awesome. Where'd you study? My name's Ariadne, by the way.

That's...kind of a complicated question. I mostly learned through doing. I was...uhm. Redesigning a city for some people after a war when I was brought here.

[Annabeth generally tries to soften the 'daughter of a god' information for later.]

I'm Annabeth. It's cool to meet you. So you just arrived?

[chesstotem]

Non-traditional. Some opportunities you must've had. I was at Columbia for undergrad, then the Ecole des Beaux Arts.

[Does dream designing count as non-traditional?]

Yeah, I've only been here a few days. Just thought I'd offer my services. If nothing else, it'll keep me from getting too bored. You working on City cleanup?

So industrious, Ariadne.

A girl's gotta make a living. You have any better ideas?

[subconman]

You could do what every other girl at uni does and get a shop job or some such thing.

I don't think so.

Besides, I've finished school. Get your facts straight. [And by 'facts' she means 'the little white lie I'm telling everyone because it's easier to get jobs if they don't realize she still has one semester left'.]

[specifythepoint]

That was fast.

[chesstotem]

No reason to sit around thinking about it.

Besides, I wouldn't want to wear out my welcome.

It's unlikely. I'm sure Eames would be happy to forge some references for you.

[chesstotem]

Unlikely. I feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

I'm sure he would, and I know that has its place, but hm. I guess I'd like to try it my way.

I'm good with the building rather than the design. [T...echnically she should be able to fix all of this nonsense with a few words. Sob, magic.]

[chesstotem]

Yeah? I can handle all the design stuff. [No, really. She can handle all of that.]

[fishnets]

I might have a project that could use some... additional room to. I'm good with expanding on what's already there, but... [Lol, doing it overall? That's a different story. :c]

[chesstotem]

Well, I'd love to help. First consult is free. [Little smile.]

[dreamsonaplane]

[he sounds like he has an idea...] Are you going to start your own firm here?

(Voice.)

[chesstotem]

[Tread carefully, Ariadne...]

That might be a possibility, if I ever find myself with the resources to do so.

(Voice.)

[dreamsonaplane]

Would you mind doing consulting work?

(Voice.)

[chesstotem]

[Goddammit. Arthur and Eames will kill her. They will fight for the privilege of being the one to end her life. They will...]

Sure. What did you have in mind?
