[ that gleam in his eyes... jeez, that passion when it comes to the arts and aesthetics is completely unfamiliar with roland. it's unlike the way netzach usually is despite being the patron librarian of the floor of art -- but it's also kind of like how don is when it comes to fixers?

but anyway, roland can't help it if he gets whisked up in someone's interests, and kaveh's certainly no exemption. ]

Eh, I've been shot at plenty of times and lived. A little piercing on the ear is nothing if we're only talking about studs.

[ he shrugs. ngl, he is starting to get the appeal the more he thinks about it... hmmm. ]

Any idea on the kind of earrings I should wear, then?

[fussiest]

[ cavalier, kaveh thinks, with his personal safety. or perhaps someone who uses humour to make the best of things? something in him tells him the likelihood skews towards both at once, and they both speak to a pattern of living that likely puts roland in some danger. it's congruent with the need for a suit that can protect from injuries.

kaveh's smile softens. he gives roland another critical eye. black and whites, a bit of floral pattern to his tie. ]

I'm inclined to agree on studs. They're easy to maintain, they don't get in the way, and there's just enough of an accent to bring you to a polished shine. [ now then... colours. ] Silver, I think. You're that sort of man. You can also get away with black studs, but that might be a bit much all by itself considering your usual monochrome. What are your thoughts about a silver backing or frame, with a dark jewel in the middle? It'll still go with your colour coordination, but it adds a little extra to it.

[ roland still can't get over that impeccable eye kaveh has. it's not like vergilius the red gaze's, though it helps that kaveh has red eyes as well though they don't glow in a threatening way like the former. no, he's more like chesed but with fashion and aesthetics instead of coffee, isn't he? ]

Sounds good. And that depends on the color of the jewel itself...

[ more thoughtful humming. maybe red? blue? purple? the possibilities are endless. ]

I might wanna wear it on special occasions, like festivals or things like that. Dunno if they have something like that in this City, though. And speaking of jewelry, I don't think I see any shops around that sell them -- they're probably at that mall that hasn't been opened yet.

[fussiest]

Well, given how this city is, someone enterprising will throw a festival at some point or another. And if they do, given the circumstances, I think we ought to all pitch in to make it happen. You'll then have a place to dress up for.

[ kaveh considers this. then, of course, because he is kaveh, he brightens. ] And while it's true that I have yet to see a jewellery store, I suspect I can do a bit of improvisation. I'm no jeweler, but fine glass and metal are things that I've experience with. Let me get back to you, see what I can do.

[ this is, totally, a very reassuring pat on your shoulder, roland. the lack of jewelry stores may not have got you, but kaveh's got you (?). ]
