The gallery smells of cold marble and old paper, the air thick with dust motes dancing in the slivers of light from the high windows.

He lets the silence stretch, then clicks his tongue. "you, what exactly are you trying to achieve there?" His voice is calm, almost curious, but the arch of his eyebrow promises a long lecture on the consequences of stupidity.
