WHO: Tsukasa & you

WHEN: Throughout the month
WHAT: It's an open post... and a catch-all. All-purpose post.
WARNINGS: None, will add if necessary

do. drawing in the city

[ Due to some recent... developments... Tsukasa's been putting a lot more effort into keeping himself busy, and that chiefly involves getting better at drawing people. Landscapes, flora, all of that? He's perfectly great at, albeit his style errs more on a loose, flighty style of watercolor.

But again. Getting better at drawing people. He can be found at a few of the parks doing studies on people, couples, animals, you... all of that. Looking vaguely frustrated and, at one point, just kind of. flopping back in the grass with the world's loudest groan.

Not that his attempts at it at the square are much better, where he ends up laying on the fountain's edge, looking at the water like he's considering rolling into it.

......Yeah, it really isn't going well. ]

re. drawing out of the city

[ "Maybe I'll have better luck somewhere new," he said, and then went to Pesgare one weekend when he wasn't busy.

Except Tsukasa doesn't handle boats well, so on the way he can be found leaning on the railing and looking more than a little miserable. He prefers these to like, airplanes? Definitely? But... boats... Three hours of this is awful, like at least it isn't walking into heat but Respartum had only been like an hour away...!?

When he's there though, he can be found resting his poor stomach on the side of the road for a bit before he starts sketching again. Those with a keen eye will notice, though, that he ends up drawing the sights more than the people... Pesgare is beautiful, and he needs to practice architecture anyway... ♪ Even if he's supposed to be focusing on people.

He can also be found just around, taking in the sights and... in the marketplace, taking in the smells. And the bakeries. And— look, he likes food, shush. Are you reaching for that last chocolat au pain or other tasty treat too? Tsukasa'll back off with an "Ah, sorry," though he'll look a little put-out at not being able to have it himself. ]

[ Nothing catching your interest/we already have plans/you wanna do class stuff (his electives are art and home ec, he's in Art Club)/maybe at work at the riding school and stables/whatever? Go ahead and throw me anything, I'll roll with it! You can also catch me over on plurk at flaired, or on Discord at Bella#4429; I'm quicker to reply to pings though, as a heads up. ]

[Softly, but with feeling:] Everything happened so much.

You'd be better off asking Sena. I wasn't dragged out of the city and I wasn't in the special teams either, I don't know as much as other people do.

[ More stuff to ask senpai... Tsukasa frowns a little, but nods and holds up his sketchbook to



make a face at it and go back to erasing lines, ugh. ]

Did anything happen in the city, or was it okay? Um, here seemed pretty fine after all, at least when we all came back on our break day.

[thesettingsun]

[The sketch is going that well, huh?]

There were monsters inside the city last time. That was a thing that happened.

[stressweets]

[ Oh, definitely. Best sketch ever. ........he's a perfectionist and he's bad at people leave him alone. ]

...Oh, that's what the mayor meant by that... [ how... weird...... ] That sounds really scary though. You're really brave for sticking around back then~.

[thesettingsun]

We couldn't actually leave the city back then and I wasn't picked for a team, so it's not like I had a choice. I stayed in my boyfriend's apartment for almost the whole month.

[Don't compliment him on things that aren't true.]

[stressweets]

[ Shuji just take a compliment goddamn— ]

Oh. [ that's. less cool. uh. hm. ] ...Tell me about your boyfriend? I like hearing about that kind of thing. Um... Love and stuff.

[thesettingsun]

Of course!

[His mood goes from sulk to sparkle instantly.]

Have you met Guido Mista, most amazing human being in Recolle? He's a host at Club Sunshine, definitely the most handsome one there~

[stressweets]

He can't be the most amazing human being in Recollé as long as Hinata lives there too~. But ah, I haven't. Um, I've never been to a host club or anything like that, actually... Is it really okay for people my age to?

[ ??? Is this going to be his next Real Life Adventure... ]

[thesettingsun]

[Shuji doesn't even know Hinata but Tsukasa is still Wrong.]

Of course it is. What do you think Club Sunshine is, a strip club?

[stressweets]

[ Fastest way to get into a fight with Tsukasa, Shuji: disagree with him about Hinata, the objectively most wonderful person in the city. ]

I— uh. [ UH. ] To be honest, I don't really know what one of those are...? Or what goes on in them or anything like that.

[thesettingsun]

[if these two ever got into an argument about their best boys, Recolle might not survive]

You should stop by sometime and see for yourself.
