[Darin's no stranger to murals, but street art and graffiti is not something he's inherently familiar with. On his way home from doing some shopping, Darin stops and watches Beat work from a distance.]

[The kid's...good. Really good. And as someone who took to sketching to learn how to connect with people while keeping his own abilities and self hidden, Darin can't help but be enchanted by what Beat is doing.]

[He wanders closer, looking over the in-progress mural.]

You know, I've seen some murals and paintings in my time but I don't think I've ever seen anything like this.

Do you plan it all out before you start spraying? Or do you just kinda go with the flow?

[He's genuinely curious. Usually, Darin approaches things with a sort of friendly enthusiasm that makes him seem more friendly and less invested but this? This has truly captured his attention. It's like you can see the sparks of creativity flickering in his green eyes.]
