<div style="text-align: right;"><strong>Paul Raike</strong> (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=84632.msg3727041#msg3727041) - <strong>Penthouse Studio A</strong> - <em>Talking to Aline, then heading to the lobby</em></div><br/>Paul couldn't help but smile in amusement at his boss' comments about Avarice; suddenly, knowing that such behavior irritated her, and that she was capable of petty (if deserved) revenge somehow made her seem more human. The comment about jittery models, however... He'd never photographed anyone too nervous to smile for a portrait.<em>A simple portrait.</em>Paul's thoughts turned to some of the other shots in the explicit gallery that Aline had described as<em>simple</em>, and he suddenly wondered what, exactly, this portrait might entail.<br/><br/>He snapped back to attention at the suggestion of having the company deliver, and nodded gratefully in agreement; he'd realized immediately after he'd offered to go that he didn't have an umbrella with him. Perhaps Lulu had spares behind the front desk? All the better if he didn't have to go at all. "Actually, that should work out great," he said, thinking through lunch. "Once I find Matilda, I'll wait in the lobby for the delivery guy." He smiled again, and disappeared around the door frame towards the elevator. This time it arrived in seemingly no time, and as he stepped into it he wondered what had happened earlier in the day to make it so slow.<br/><br/><div style="text-align: right;"><em>Paul heads to the Lobby (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=84363.msg3773234#msg3773234)</em></div>
