[IC] A Whole New World

[KatherinWinter]

"I do not like the idea of being so far away from people." While it had been a goid thing that her place was isolated when he crashed, in the long run her being alone worried him. "What if you get sick? People who live in isolation die on my world."

[Soul Hunter]

"Well I'm not alone and I'm quite healthy it's only asthma, so easily treatable but not quite curable"she said to him "Look I've got you here haven't I so if I get ill I'm sure you'll try your best ok and I don't get ill often anyway so it's unlikely to happen" she said.

[KatherinWinter]

"I don't see how I have any choice. But it still worried me. I have list friends that wanted to live the way you do. They were healthy and capable until one day they weren't." Zack explained to her. "For now let's focus on this gallery and the art of your world."

[Soul Hunter]

She looked to him and kissed his cheek "I have people checking up on me frequently usually so don't worry and you always have a choice remember that ok?" she said and nodes focusing on the exhibition and found the model of a shire and showed it to him.

[KatherinWinter]

"I will take your word on that for now." Zack headed into the gallery. He thought about offering her his hand or putting his arm around her, but he was still uncertain if what was ok and what was not. As he walked he studied the people as much as he studied the art.

[Soul Hunter]

Keita smiled a little and kissed his cheek and held his hand "Just be yourself ok, and make sure not to touch anything ok?" she said "it's kind of a rule in Galleries and museums" she said

[KatherinWinter]

"No touching." Zack repeated. He put his hands behind himself in an effort to remember. He studied the sculptures and the art. He liked some of them others he simply didn't understand. The thing Zack liked most was the large variety of styles. "You world has a very interesting variety of art. There are many sculptures that I could make given enough time and the right materials."

[Soul Hunter]

Keita smiled "Ah that's good and thanks a lot of it is rather interesting isn't it" she smiled at him looking at the many sculptures and paintings and telling him a little bit about each so he could learn about the culture a little more. "each painting and sceptre has an emotion locked inside it, because the artist was enjoying themselves while doing it, I don't mean it literally though"

[KatherinWinter]

"I am not sure I understand." zack stopped in front of a picture and studied it thoughtfully. "how is there an emotion locked inside? Why is there an emotion locked inside? Which emotion do they lock into the work? How can it be locked but not literally locked?"

[Soul Hunter]

Keita spent her time explaining it to him carefully until he understood and smiled when he finally did understand and watched him for a moment as he looked to the paintings. She looked to several of them and enjoyed her time there with him. "Look at this one here" she took him over to a very famous painting "This si the mot famous painting in the world. The Mona Lisa" she said "Beautiful isn't it?"

[KatherinWinter]

"She looks uncomfortable." Zack commented. He studied the picture. He could see the appeal of the painting. Although it wasn't something he would he pay for. It almost made him wish he could paint so that he could make a similar painting of her. Still he thought his sculpture had captured her fairly well. "Why is it famous?"

[Soul Hunter]

"Because of it's beauty and because during the time it was paint Mona Lisa was rather important, I think" she said "I'm not so informative on this one to be honest, but only impotent people could get their picture painted at that time" she smiled at him.

[KatherinWinter]

"Anyone can get their pictures painted now? It is not so imporant anymore," Zack nodded he understood that times changed and those changes influenced the arts. He wondered w. hat her planet had been long ago. Would it have been easier to learn about? It didn't really matter he was here now. So he to learn about this time, "Is there art from this time here?"

[Soul Hunter]

"Yeah, near enough" she said to him and nodded taking his hand she showed him the modern art exhibition with the artist being there as well "There are lots of different types of art so, it's quite hard to distinguish between the time they were painted sometimes" she smiled at him.

[KatherinWinter]

"I think I understand your planets art. I think mine work will do well enough her to make enough to pay my own way." Zack told her. "now I just need a better understanding of the way your people interact so that I don't offend anyone."

[Soul Hunter]

"Well collecting the foal with me can help since you have to interact with people an animals in order to get a good deal" she said to him "Also you can help me give the foal a name, it's a little female, snow white so she's quite a pretty mare" she smiled at him. "I'm also borrowing the stable's trailer and car as well" she explained sounding rather excited and looked to the art work.

[KatherinWinter]

"I will help as much as I can." He promised. He smiled at her excitement. It was clear that she was looking forward to picking the animal up. He could hardly wait to see the animal in person. "Why are you so alone?"

[Soul Hunter]

"Because, I'm not a very sociable person some might say, I got quite hurt last time so it's another reason I stay alone so much, guess you could say I'm scared" she said to him trying to explain as best she could and smiled a little.

[KatherinWinter]

Zack was sad to hear this. He wanted to comfort her but knew that her would scare her or make her uncomfortable by doing so. If he had been on his planet he would have shown her how real men treated a woman. "I am sorry you were hurt. Please know that it is not my intent to hurt you. If I do you must tell me immediately. My people take such offenses very seriously."

[Soul Hunter]

"You haven't hurt me at all, if anything you've just shocked me a little with a few things but in a good way nothing bad" she smiled at him. "A lot of women here would call you a young gentleman because of your politeness which is something many women want in a man" she said "Certainly something I would like to find anyway"
