boston week: part one!

[thewonderkitten.livejournal.com]

Welcome to Boston, Massachusetts! We hope you've found your accommodations to your liking. It's Christmas week, so the streets are bustling along nicely, the trees are up, and decorations line Faneuil Hall. No snow just yet, but we hope you like the 30°F weather! (Might want to bundle up.)

Even around this time of year, there's much to be done in the city -- take a gander at some of the potential attractions on your brochure and get out there to go enjoy the sights!

((Host note: I'm starting the week off easy with a general RP, but come Wednesday, expect a new post with -- gasp -- tasks! Unfortunately, I just won't be a stable enough presence to maintain what I have planned until then. So for now, get settled in and have fun!

Feel free to go all around the city -- I've outlined/summarized some key areas to hit up in the list up there. If you're stumped on somewhere to go, hit up the mod thread and I'll make sure to point you in the right direction!))

*she thinks for a moment that she shouldn't interrupt him, but she kind of wants to talk to him anyway*

You know...you can buy prints of the paintings in the gift shop.

Oh, having the painting isn't really the point.

No? Then what is the point?

I just... love to draw.

*flips back one page to show her a figure drawing he'd done earlier that day from a statue*

*peers over at the drawing and smiles*

Those are very good. Do you get to draw often?

When I'm not working, I actually don't do much else.

*nods*

Well, you're very good at it. At least, I think so. I apologize for bothering you. I'll leave you to your drawing.

*shakes his head*

You're not bothering me at all. The company is... nice.

So you come to Boston often?
