*Paige notices the sign and figures it probably means Geoff isn't planning on leaving just yet*

*She walks in looking nervous, wondering if the thing with the blindfold was really such a good idea*

*Geoff smiles brightly at Paige when she enters*

No classes today?

*He walks over and gives her a kiss.*

*Paige smiles back* Not til tonight no and I'm not even sure that's gonna be happening, it didn't last week.

*She looks down at the floor* So we're still ok right?

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

*Geoff cocks his head at Paige*

Why would we not be okay?

Sonia pushes the door open warily, not quite sure what to expect from the little shop.

"Er...excuse me? Somevun mentioned you might need an assistant?" She gives Chaucer a small smile as she looks around the place. "Um, I'm not qvite sure exactly vhat it is you vould like help *vith,* but I can provide samples of my vurk, if you vould like?"

Also, Mea Dumnezu, somevun else from zer 14th/15th centuries.

*Paige blushes and keeps her eyes on the floor* Well you know after the handcuffs and stuff last night, I though maybe I'd scared you off or something

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

*Geoff hugs her shoulders and gives her another kiss*

You haven't scared me off. Maybe surprised me a little, but I think I can handle a surprise now and then.

There's coffee and some cookies, if you want some. I have something I want to talk to you about, but I think first I should talk to the pretty lady who just came in. *grins and winks at Paige*

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

Good day, my lady! *Geoff offers his hand* Come in please, I am looking for an assistant. What sort of work do you do?

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

*Paige smiles back at him* Sure you do that. I'll just wait here til you're free

*In the back of mind Paige wonders if Geoff is trying to make her jealous, or if all guys from the 14th century are like this*

Sonia blushes lightly, and sets her bag down before continuing.

"Vell, let's see...I've had basic instruction in drawing, and have taught myself since then (vell, using master drawings and examples.) I've also had some experience vith illuminated manuscript, though I don't know if many people here vould be in need of that." She smiled before continuing. "Oh, and I'm more than villing to vurk for commission, and that is entirely negotiable. I'm more interested in the experience at this point, rather than the monetary compensation."

[OOC: No, just all guys from the 14th century who are Geoff Chaucer are like this! :D]

[soniabelmont.livejournal.com]

[OOC: You absolute scamp! :D ]

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

(ooc- yeah I guessed that :/)

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

*Geoff kisses her hand, and looks extremely pleased to hear that Sonia doesn't care about being paid.*

You have experience with illumination? Well, you may be right that there won't be much call for it here, but it's impressive all the same. And, I do have a commission I'm working on now that your skills would certainly help with.

May I look through the samples you brought?

[OOC: Must run to school administration for a moment. Will reply within 20 minutes!]

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

[OOC: No problem!]

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

[OOC: And that's one of the nicer things he's been called since he got here! ;D]

[shane-mcc.livejournal.com]

[OOC: Aww, but he's such a snappy dresser...! :D]

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

[OOC: What can I say. The ladies love the yellow coat!]

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

[OOC: Oh, and I plan to send Geoff over to the pub later, so if Shane's around send her over and they can talk some more.]

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

*Geoff looks through the samples that the young lady brought into his shop. He holds up a couple of them for Paige to see.*

These are actually very good, don't you think?

[shane-mcc.livejournal.com]

[OOC: Hee, will do - was gonna have her cruise by when Geoff was sitting on the bench outside his shop, but the post mysteriously vanished... hehe]

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

[OOC: Uh, yeah, sorry about that. Was trying to consolidate threads, so I didn't have to run all over my computer. As it is, I just had like 12 messages pop into my email to tell me about comments!]

[shane-mcc.livejournal.com]

[OOC: lol No worries...]

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

*Paige smiles* Yeah they're great and I mean if it'll give you more free time I'm all for her why could a guy not have applied for the position?
