The whole flag factory

RED FLAGS meme

Sure, you may look like a total catch, but what's the catch? Maybe everything isn't what it seems.

how to play
- forget what you think you know about memes.
- forget the traditional subject line. no prefs. no character info.
- what do you put there instead? verbalize the red flag(s) that should, in a just world, come attached to your characters. be honest. be brutal.
- with this forbidden knowledge in mind, the rest of bakerstreet has to decide whether they wouldn't touch that with a ten-foot pole or if they'd throw caution to the wind and still go for it.

You're quite an interesting one, Mr. Shalem. I can't say I understand at all! [ ... but she doesn't sound bothered by that. ] Then, if not fighting itself, what sort of thing might bring you joy?

[prozaic]

Art, Miss Specter. Art is what brings me joy. I might not be able to create, but watching creators work, and then being able to see the results of said work... There's no other joy for me.

Then you ought to take good care of me, and I might do you the favor of allowing you to spectate my creative process... I hear you make a fine cup of tea, that'll do as a start. [ she's kidding! she's not completely kidding. ] But in all seriousness, it's a fine endeavor you have in mind. Art truly does make it all worthwhile, doesn't it?

[prozaic]

It does. It conveys emotion-- you may not know the artist, but you can understand a little of them after seeing their work.

What's your medium then, Miss Specter? The battlefield aside.

As much as I'd love to make you guess, I'll spare you the song and dance. I'm rather out of practice, but I once aspired to be a sculptor... Does it fit me? Heehee.

You've always liked working with your hands, Miss Specter. Carving pieces out of your medium to create a striking figure... Is that not similar to what you do now?
