Soon enough, there was no need to stay alert to any subtle movements from Azura Kennedy, because she had given up on being subtle altogether. Nevertheless, Daxton remained hyperaware of her presence, casting side-glances at her as she sat herself down a semi-reasonable distance away.
He continued drawing carefully in his notebook, though was unable to keep from being distracted by the girl rummaging through her bag. With a twinge of annoyance, he finally looked up and towards her, fully intending on glaring or scowling until she went away, but then he noticed the quills on the floor between them. Instead, they got a look of confusion, as did Azura Kennedy, but the explanation followed soon enough.
As a rule, Daxton did not use quills. He appreciated the aesthetic, and he enjoyed running his hands and fingers over the feathered ends of the writing implements, but the sensory issue of the scratching of the quill nibs on paper and parchment was simply too much. Aside from the first time he had attempted to use a quill, Daxton had exclusively stuck to using pens, even in his art.
He was intrigued by the quills, though, and wanted to at least test them out. They were likely self-inking, the the colour of the feather corresponding to the colour of the ink, given the lack of ink pot provided. Daxton considered them for a long moment, then flipped to an old page of his notebook. After another glance at Azura Kennedy lasting for only a fraction of a second, he slowly reached out and picked up the purple quill - his movements reminiscent of some kind of cautious and suspicious animal - held it in front of his eyes, and inspected it.
