Maximus: *sitting in a room not too far in where DB comes in. DB will definitely spot him. If DB is quiet about entering, he may manage to catch Max doodling on a big tablet with a painter program.*

DB: *initially tries to sneak by the room, still kind of wanting to be left alone, but…then he gets a glimpse of what Max is doing, and he finds himself slipping /into/ the room rather than past it* Oh! You can draw?

Maximus: *startled yelp, fumbling the pad as he stands to turn and face DB...the look on his face is like he was just goosed.* Uhhhh......y-yeah. *lets out a buzz, looking sheepish.* Don't tell anyone.

DB: *confused frown* Why not? That's neat. None of /us/ ever drew. Actually . . . we really didn't do much but work. And sometimes watch TV or play games when there was time. Though I guess it makes sense that we could draw and stuff if we wanted. *approaches, reaching for the pad* Hey, show me what you've done?

Maximus: *because it'll destroy his tough guy reputation....he lets out a huff and holds out the pad. He's not bad!*

DB: *looks through them* Wow . . . these are really good. *honest!*

Maximus: *WOULD BE BLUSHING IF HE COULD!!* ...thanks...

DB: *hands back the pad* How'd you learn to draw? Can I learn too?

Maximus: *shrugs* Online videos. And probably, if you wanted to. *dammit DB, he's never told anyone this before.* Always wanted to learn, just...never had a chance before this place...

DB: …………. *gaze falls* Yeah . . . we never really had time for much either, even . . .well, before.

Maximus: .......So take the time now. ......I'll show you a few things....if you want, of course.

DB: Ah . . . sure . . . *kinda boggling at the thought*

Maximus: *smirks...feels they're even now. He'll sit DB down and let him play on the data pad, showing him a few how-to vids and how to use the program.*

DB: *is like a little kid!*

Maximus:  *......feeling like a proud big brother watching his little brother learn something new....dammit kid, he doesn’t want to bond like this....it’s unmanly...*
