Coming out of her studio, her hands and shirt covered in splatters of oil paint, Rin sighed but smiled. After crossing and exiting her bedroom Rin let her gaze sweep over her living room before crossing it as well to go into the kitchen. Turning on the faucet Rin scrubbed her hands clean, watching the colored suds swirl down the drain, deep in thought. She had gotten back into town the day before after a job capturing some bandits. While usually she would have gone straight to the guildhall to get a new job, the scenery in the small town had been beautiful and she had needed to get it onto canvas. Of course, like always, this meant she hadn’t left her studio except to eat when Zoe made her. “Maya why haven’t you gone to the guild yet?”
Jumping Rin turned to see Zoe standing behind her and shook her head with a small smile. ’Speak of the devil…’ Looking at her paint covered clothes Rin shrugged, shaking her head and went to the fridge, speaking as she took a look inside. “You know why. I just finished it by the way.” Reaching into the fridge Rin pulled out the stuff to make a sandwich bringing it to the counter. Happening to catch the sight from her window out of the corner of her eyes Rin was surprised at the fact that it was dark out. ’Guess I’ll wait till tomorrow..’ Making herself a sandwich Rin smirked as Zoe mentally debated whether to scold her of ask to see the painting.
Once Rin was done eating and Zoe was still thinking about it, Rin rolled her eyes. Turning to go to the kitchen Rin didn’t realize Zoe’s retaliation until the smack to the back of her head connected. "Ow! Zoe!" "Well? Don't you sass me!" Rin bit her tongue, not wanting to get in an argument, and went into the kitchen. By the time she had finished cleaning up and washing the dishes Zoe had finally made a decision. Drying off her hands Rin went back to her Studio and returned to the living room with the painting. Once Zoe caught sight of it she grabbed it and started her ‘observations’ which was pretty much her talking about everything she liked about it. Despite her best attempts Rin couldn’t help but smile at Zoe’s praise. Getting up to escape Zoe’s flattery and go change out of her paint covered clothed, Rin stopped when she heard a knock on the door. ’Wonder who that could be…
Walking over to the door with her usual cold glare plastered on her face Rin opened it, finding one of her guildmates. Her eyes narrowing further Rin snapped at the girl. ”How the hell do you know where I live and what do you want?! Her tone sharp Rin ignored Zoe who was still in the living room with the painting and could be heard chattering obliviously.
