He's a rather independent soul, working at the New York Metropolitan Museum, who lends no time to pretending to be anything he's not or be involved in anyway other than to stimulate his muse. However, when a local pole dancer sneaks a shoulder-mount-to-flying-half-flag maneuver into his life, managing to seduce far more than Xherdan's muse, he's not sure how to put it all into perspective. Then again, painting is Xherdan's artistic magic, not words. So, while poetic prose may have failed him, he still enjoys exploring this new sensation with loyal attention that sets Sreven above the rest of the world that's only purpose is to feed his muse. Rather, Sreven becomes the living motion and breath of his muse. But there's just one fight a lover should never pick with an artist.
