Keizzer watched the many people walking past, before catching a pretty falling leaf from the air, studying it curiously. Such intricacy for such a tiny piece of greenery, Earth truly was an interesting place.

Oliver also caught sight of the leaf and eyes it in the man's hand for a moment before snapping a picture of it and him. Facing his direction, Oliver truly caught sight of the man's face and blinked. "You're quite handsome." He said it without embarrassment or undertone, just from a photographer's perspective.

Keizzer's hazel eyes flicked up to the boy, studying him. "You are also." he said plainly, because honestly, the boy was completely edible.

Oliver blinked, clueless. "I wouldn't know. I've never tried to take a picture of myself."

Keizzer looked at the male. "Then that," he pointed to the camera. "Has not captured real beauty yet." He said, looking at the boy.

Oliver stared at him oddly for a moment before glancing to his camera and then back to him. "I've captured very many beautiful people and places and objects. What do you consider real beauty?"

Keizzer thought about that, looking out over the masses of humans milling about. "Beauty is the person that finds beauty in things. I think...that someone who can look at a lock, or a patch of dirt, and find beauty there--must possess it, yeah?" he said, directing his attention back to the boy.

"Beauty is also in the eye of the beholder. What I find beautiful, another may not and vice versa. I believe that the knowledge that, realistically, nothing is beautiful yet everything is because of diverse peoples and opinions, is what makes everything so precious," his words lacked conviction but he spoke from the heart regardless.
Reaching down to his coffee he had sat just beside him when he had sat down earlier, he sighed at the little ants running aroudn on the top and rose to toss it in a nearby trash bin. Intent on getting another, he cast a glance back at Kiezzer, "It was nice meeting you."

"Goodbye, Oliver Bligh." Keizzer said, a bit of a smile pulling at his lips before he stood, towering over the boy before he placed his hands in his pocket and headed off to his meeting, humming tunelessly under his breath as he took in the autumn air.

Oliver walked steadily on to the small coffee shop just a few blocks over from the park. Getting his coffee, he decided to stay for a light lunch and grabbed a panini while he was at it, vaguely looking over the local art that lined the small building's walls.

Keizzer arrived at the gallery where his meeting was to be held, and sat down with the high powered humans, his face all business as he talked things over with them. Looked like he'd be on earth for a while, with what they were asking.

Oliver sighed at the grandfather clock chimed once more and he knew he had to get back to work. Throing a few pounds on the table, he made his way back to Blackburn and Porter, his job for the last four years. Settling into his office, he signed on to his computer and adjusted his glasses once more before proceeding to get down to work.

Keizzer sighed as he headed back out to the city, deciding to look at the place more before drafting an initial design. Lots of brownstones and close houses they had in London. Didn't give him too much to work with.

"Yes, Mr. Blackburn," Oliver nodded robotically as the man asked for what had to be the millionth time if every aspect fo the account had been gone over. "Everything that was there and legal for me to see to was, seen to."
Oliver listened to the man drone on a bit more ere he left before packing up his own things for the day and heading back out. He was intent on getting home to his quiet house in Hampstead for the evening.

Keizzer made his way past a little business called Blackburn and Porter, looking at the architecture of the place, his mind drifting idly to the boy he'd met today before continuing on his way, accidentally running into someone. He grasped the person's arm to steady them before they fell backwards. "Apologies." he murmured.
