<div align="center"><strong>Shawn Albert Pierce (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=83967.msg3706742#msg3706742) - Gallery Main Lobby |Speaking with Matilda (Others Are Still Nearby)</strong></div><br/>Excellent, she would give him the photo he asked and it would be one of his favorite (if not absolute favorite). She did not need to fret, she did not need to worry; at least not around Shawn as long as she treated him with respect and stayed true to herself. “I thank you for considering my request, Tilly, you are very kind to me... and strong to do this even as I see you fret inside your head.” The hand on her cheek moved up to her nose, tapping playfully then resting on her shoulder. “Inappropriate behavior begets inappropriate behavior, so it is still my apology.” Now he smirked in a sarcastic and fun tone; trying to lighten the mood, so-to-speak.<br/><br/>It all seemed to be in order, at least on this side. “If we are both on the same page and you will give me what I ask, what is it I can do to repay you? Money, as I know, is a silly thing but my most valuable asset is always my time. You may have plenty of that each time I visit the Gallery, and I visit a few times every week... sometimes more if anyone special has grabbed my notice.” Shawn winked lightly, making sure to convey she was one of those special; certainly she was aware already, but to make a woman know she is wanted never ends poorly to those who know how to say it.<br/><br/>“As for the rest?" Pulling his hand away, then touching the finger which had only recently been on her skin to his lips as if to form a whisper as he leaned in close to her. Shawn made sure no one was paying much mind, or listening, as he glanced around. Getting closer to her ear and then speaking so quietly it would be as though a mouse was speaking to her. “Let us work up to the,” His words went slow and it was as though he tried to speak even lower, “Erotic stuff.” He would be honest, a head shot was all he wanted but more would give her a room within his house filled with dedications.<br/><br/>Finally pulling back, Shawn smiled sweetly. He was almost like an innocent child, someone who had not said as he said seconds ago. Like the words he spoke in her ear were done in a completely separate universe than the one both found themselves in now. Simply stating and looking very happy; Shawn spoke one word and it was rather chipper. “Okay?”
