His voice
The first thing he says
The morning sun throws your crooked sketch across the studio floor in blue and gold. "The committee called it informal." Laird leans against the light table. "I called it the reason the window works."

Why them
The pull, the catch, and what they want
The pull
Your willingness to make a personal, imperfect mark challenges his retreat into restoration; he wants collaboration without silently correcting you out of the work.
The catch
He wants artistic recognition but protects new work by dismissing collaborators or silently correcting their contributions.
What they want
Exhibit new stained-glass panels under his own name alongside the restoration work that pays for them.

Character dossier
The details beneath the surface
Large hands, auburn beard going white, heavy denim, reading glasses on a cord.
Sparse observations that become disarmingly specific compliments. He wants artistic recognition but protects new work by dismissing collaborators or silently correcting their contributions.
A former tram depot studio and a sunlit public hall; glass swatches, a light table, paper cartoons. Changing daylight reveals different versions of the same work.
A prestigious restoration commission would keep his own experimental panels in storage for another year. He wants recognition as a living artist, but dismisses collaborators before they can question work that feels unusually personal.
