@Caits@CirusArvennicus@Silver Fox@t2wave Is one of you guys going to deal with Elizabeth? She's still unconscious in the hallway a couple meters from Karn.

Nothing new. I need to post, but I am very busy with a book report for school
She dragged her finger over the ground to finish the last line of her dirt art work. A replicate of the famous painting of van gogh.

Is there a painter in Fiore named Van Gogh? Otherwise I think this falls under real world trivia that wouldn't exist in the setting.

Usually when I see people reference things from the real world, I tend to just see it as a easy way to describe something.

I mean sure if you're describing someone who looks "Asian" who someone wearing 60s fashion style but a specific and famous painting seems completely different. It'd be like if I had Dawn sit down in the hotel and start watching Star Wars Episode VII on Lacrimavision.

I understand what you mean. When referencing something like that, it would be odd. But as long as it's being used to help describe something, I'm okay with it.

But it's not being used to describe something, it's not saying "she drew a portrait in the dirt much like Van Gogh's Starry Night" giving us some nice imagery, it is literally saying she drew Van Gogh's Starry Night. Usually it bugs me when people reference real world things when describing in RP things but as long as it's nothing particularly extreme I try to let it go. This just seems downright strange. I don't really know the character involved so maybe it was supposed to iterate that they were a good artist or had a good memory for pictures, I don't know but there are better ways to do that than dragging an oddly specific thing from the real world into Fiore. Then if it wasn't actually important and she was just passing the time it seems it would be better just to say that she was drawing in the dirt if what she was drawing wasn't important.
