Aw shucks. It wasn't perfect, but it worked well enough! [He says sheepishly.] Oh, a photographer, huh? Is that still what you're aiming for?

[And as they talk, he finally enters the safe area and seeks out a couch to set her down on.]

When I was a kid I mostly just made stuff that went "boom," and that's because my best friend was a trouble-maker.

[Max sits up when she's put down on the couch, taking her bag to pull out her retro polaroid-style camera.]

Yes, but I don't know if they sell film for this here. Once I run out I'll probably have to switch to taking pictures with our communication devices.

[Gumshoe takes a seat near the couch to keep an eye on her. He's not sure what to make of the 'booms' that she was involved in, but he does waggle a disapproving finger in jest. As she pulls out the camera, he leans forward slightly to get a better look at it, amused. It's easier to appreciate cameras when they'r being used by people who aren't frustrating him.]

Wow, that's a nice camera you got there! Very... what's the word? Retro! [He pulls back and claps his hands together.]

Anyway, I hope you manage to find yourself some film! Nothing has the same feel as one of those kinds of pictures, pal!

[Her smile is shy but unapologetic in response to the pretend-scold.

Retro, or vintage. [Or hipster, a term used way too much by the people at Blackwell.]

I think so too. The instant polaroid is by far my favorite, but I do like a lot of different photography styles and techniques.

[trenchdoting]

Oh right, that's the other word. [He says with a soft chuckle.]

Well, this can always be a chance to explore those other styles and stuff! And if I ever spot any of that film you're looking for up in these parts, I'll be sure to give you a heads up!
