New York I love You (But You're Bringing Me Down) - OTA

[pecked_by_birds]

Honestly, he couldn't say why, but sometimes it wasn't the madness or the pain that drove Prometheus to travel. It was just a itch, a need he had to fulfil. Lately it had been clawing at him again, and though he'd done his best to put it off... New York was calling to him. He needed to go. He'd return to London, of course, he always did after all. Though to ensure he returned sooner rather than later this time, he'd hung a 'Help Wanted' sign in the window of his shop. With any luck he'd find someone to run it in his absence.

Soft music filled the shop, and as usual the titan was behind one of his canvases. Paint tinted the tips of his fingers and was splattered all over his jeans as he neared completion on his latest piece. He'd taken a sharp turn back into realism lately, and dark hues and clear lines presented an image of a ratty looking bookshop on a corner in New York.

(OTA! This is Prometheus' last post until he returns next year, so if you need a chat, now's the time. <3)

"If you're sure, then... Yes, I'd appreciate that very much," the titan nodded, smiling brightly.

"Of course," Vanessa agreed with a small smile and a nod. "It'll be my pleasure."

"Thank you," Prometheus beamed, lighting up in a way he very rarely did. Sadness and pain melting away for a moment to allow pure joy.

Vanessa was glad to have offered, if only to witness this reaction, and her own smile reached her eyes. "I hope New York gives you many causes to smile so brightly, Prometheus."

Reaching up, the titan touched his own face, still smiling. "So do I," he admitted softly.
