They were beautiful, the way the eyelashes curled so perfectly and the little spot of white light that interrupted the detail of the iris. It seemed that Blackout had taken a lot of time on the eyes, like it was something she practiced drawing more than anything. Her attention to detail was beautiful. The eyes neither looked real nor cartoon-y, but the perfect combination of the two.<strong>"At this school, you never know,"</strong>she replied, a bit distracted, before turning to look at her roommate, feeling eyes on her. Her blue-gray eyes widened slightly in a bit of shock to find Blackout looking straight into her eyes. Tess wasn't the type of girl that got so close and personal and she wasn't used to having anyone look into her eyes, especially so closely. Her cheeks took on a light blush again as she stayed frozen, as if unable to look away until Blackout did.<strong>"Um... Thank you, though you'd probably only have one eye to draw if you drew me,"</strong>she replied, honestly. Tess only ever had her right eye visible when she was drawing or relaxing in her dorm. Other than that, she always had it hidden to cover her branded cheek; She certainly didn't want her scar being drawn.<br/><br/>Once Blackout finally pulled away, Tess could've sworn she saw what began to be blushing on her roommate's cheeks. Was she embarrassed by something?<em>"Was it something I said?"</em>she thought briefly before looking back to the sketchpad. She didn't turn the page or say anything for a moment, lost in her own thoughts, before her eyes finally focused on the page again.<strong>"The amount of detail you put in the eyes don't match the rest of the drawing. Like it's the one thing you practice drawing more than anything else,"</strong>she mentioned quietly as she flipped through the pages until getting to the end.<strong>"The whole eye area - eyebrows, eyelid, eyelashes... They all match the detail you put in the eyes, but if you look at the nose and lips, they don't share that enthusiasm. It's not a bad thing if you're doing an anime style, though. Usually the nose in anime tends to even lack much of a shape and the lips tend to not even be outlined - but the eyes... The eyes are always the focal point of the face."<br/></strong><br/>Looking up from the sketchpad, she noticed Blackout had made herself comfortable on her bed, watching her. After Blackout's suggestion, Tess bit the inside of her cheek, somewhat nervous about getting to know one another. They had a good thing going so far and she was really looking to not screw things up.<strong>"Um... Sure," </strong>she replied after releasing the inside of her cheek. She closed the sketchpad and walked over to her bed to sit down. She made herself comfortable at the head of her bed, her back against the wall and her legs in front of her. Her knees were bent and pressed together while her feet stayed about a foot or so apart.<br/><br/><strong>"Movies?"</strong>she repeated softly, her arms folded between her stomach and her thighs.<strong>"I didn't really go out to see movies. I more-so just caught whatever was on TV, so I haven't seen many, to be honest. But I did like that one movie with the haunted hotel room. And the guy is stuck there - like he can't even leave the room. And weird shit starts happening. I forgot what it's called, but it was a movie I could relate to, so I liked it. It made me feel like my stuff wasn't that bad, y'know?"</strong>She wasn't sure if it would be considered a horror movie in the same sense as Blackout's idea of horror, but it was the first one to come to mind.<br/><br/><strong>"I'm sorry that I don't know many movies. I kinda had too much going on and not enough me-time sometimes. I was hoping that coming here, I'd be able to have a more normal life. Like do things that I didn't get to do growing up. I couldn't have friends,"</strong>she admitted, hoping Blackout would understand why she was the way she was. She felt like she was so weird for not knowing basic things that every other person would know, like what her favorite movie genre was. The problem was she wasn't exposed to many movies and the ones she did see she often saw more than once either because of her temporal looping or because they were movies that were always on TV.
