Good thing about Jamil is that I could go to museums with him. If left to my own devices, I can spend an entire day in a museum, but unfortunately, most of the time the people that I go with get bored after thirty minutes after just taking a quick look at everything. And then they nag me to leave already.
Jamil, however, actually seems to be interested in art museums at the very least, judging by his "Platinum Jacket" card. He's got an eye for aesthetics and is knowledgeable about art since he had enough opportunities to listen to merchants who specialize in it. We could actually discuss an exhibition without anyone getting bored.
#But at first I would have to figure out what to do with Grim because he WILL get bored and I'm the one responsible for this cat.#Maybe I could ask other characters to babysit him...#f/o: the tactician of scalding sands#self ship#self shipping#As someone who has been to art school we often visited museums so I'm pretty used to them#Funnily enough besides art museums we also visited quite a few cemeteries during field trips. To look at the monuments obviously.#Another fun fact is that my first art school had a cemetery right next to it. It was a nice place and I liked wandering around there.#And by “right next to it” I mean that the fence of the cemetery was literally also our school's fence. That was our view from the window.#...not sure how Jamil would feel about cemeteries though (but he might appreciate how quiet and desolate they are)
