It's not a very well-known fact that Lawrence likes to draw... And he doesn't suck at it either.. He just doesn't like to share that aspect of him with others. So I was doing some thinking--what if Lawrence lost his sketchbook?
I see this taking place over a couple of days IC, and I see a couple different threads coming out of it... As a bit of an on-going plot for him.
Basically, Lawrence either leaves his sketchbook out or someone nabs it from his weyr, and he goes kinda crazy trying to find it... He asks people where it went, he searches around different rooms and places... Eventually, it ends up in his weyr, but not without a note inside it, probably mentioning something like, "you're a great artist" or "thanks for the look" or something. But with no name, leaving Lawrence to wonder who took it.
And if we want to take it further, who ever ends up finding/stealing his sketchbook could also be an artist... And leaves a new sketchbook in Lawrence's weyr with a single, unfinished/completed drawing in it, along with a note suggesting they do a collab. Of course, Lawrence has no clue who this other artist is, so all he can do is draw his part, then leave it out for the mystery artist to take, only to get the sketchbook back a few days later with a new drawing inside.
Yes, this would be kinda hard to do in thread format, if you're by yourself. That's why I think it would be an interesting little thing to do in threads as a bit of a side plot running through many threads. Such as, Lawrence is eating dinner, and talking with another weyrling. But at the same time, he's working on his next drawing... Maybe even using what's around him to finish.. So he could draw other flitters, dragons, people, etc. It could all lead up to them finally meeting, on accident maybe? Lawrence forgets something in his weyr and goes back to get it, where he find the mystery artist returning the sketchbook?
Anyone up for this long, but miniature plot?
In the event that this gets no takers, it'll still be open until I decide that I don't want to do it anymore.
