[OFA] Studio time

[special_weapon]

Ashley is in the large room she uses as a studio. She's off doing anything active job-related until her mother says otherwise. To keep from going insane, she's doing some art projects. The dogs are behind a little fence off to one side so they're safe from anything dangerous. The music is loud and a couple of the windows are cracked open. The

Henry just watches for awhile. He likes doing that, though she teases him for staring at her. He just can't help being fascinated by this side. The passionate, creative side that doesn't always get to come out.

[special_weapon]

She's a little surprised to see him by the door. Usually around this time he's elbow deep in a server rack.

"Hey. Everything okay?"

[wolftechguy]

"Defrag," he groans and flops unceremoniously to the floor by the dogs. Defragging the whole network is the work of his smartest processors and most of a day. Yes, it has to happen, but he always wants it to happen on a day with a good TV marathon, or snow, or a bunch of meetings.

"Whatcha doing to Lucy here?" he nods up towards the statue.

[special_weapon]

"Lucy?" she looks at the statue and shakes her head. Very Henry name.

"It's getting wings finally. I'm grounded but hey, she doesn't have to be," she says, winking. She's cool with being stuck in the house. at least for now.

She puts her tools down and drops to the floor by Henry and the puppies.

John doesn't want to be creepy by stalking her and has been trying to keep his distance, but he also wants to know how she is after telling her mother.

"Ashley?" he asks from the open door, low voice somehow still carrying over the sound of her music. He won't step in without permission.

[special_weapon]

The dogs get up to the edge of their pen, tails wagging as they yip a greeting.

Ashley looks over her shoulder then puts down the welding equipment. She turns down the music with the remote.

"Hey."

He doesn't look anxious so she doesn't think anything horrid happened while she was up here.

[exquisite_rush]

"Do you have time to talk for a bit?" he asks after a moment.

[special_weapon]

"Grounded until mom says so," she answers, gesturing to the beat up leather couch, lumpy futon and mismatched chez lounge she's set up on some carpet on the far side of the room. There's also a stool, minifridge and drawing table on that side of the room as well. Ashley's stocked the fridge since it seems like she'll have more time to do stuff up here for now.

"What's up?" She claims the couch for herself.

Edgar stands at the door frame-fresh out his shower, and eyes the room as though he were casing the place.
and never one for being too weak in the face of a new person he walks over the blonde and taps her on the shoulder.

[special_weapon]

Both dogs let out surprisingly deep growls when Ed reaches for Ashley. She turns, grabbing Edgar's wrist and stopping before she strikes back.

She lets go with a small scowl. "Warn a person, geez."

[lights_daggers]

Edgar scratches at his wet hair as he speaks, "Sorry love, I just wanted to thank you and the other two for not letting my arse freeze to death in the rain."

[special_weapon]

She waves a hand, relaxing. "No problem. not really in the habit of letting people die on our doorstep."

She nods at the hair. "Find the pool?"

[desert_blade]

Ardeth watches by the door for a while until one of the pups yips at him, he might not be particularly fond of dogs but he doesn't really dislike them beyond their habit of chasing cats.

[special_weapon]

Ashley looks up from what she's doing. "Hey!" she greets. The dogs take her lack of concern as a good sign and become quiet, tails wagging a little bit.

"What's up?" She asks, motioning it's okay to come in.

[desert_blade]

Ardeth looks up at the model "I think its an angel." He says with a grin. Ardeth isn't actually looking for anything in particular so he decided to have a look and see what the music was about.

[special_weapon]

Ashley turns the music down a bit. "Went more angelic once I started adding the feathers." Still, she thinks there's something aggressive about it. It wants fire.

"Looking for someone?"
