Let's Draw What We Love
Backstage Stories| *knock, knock* | |
| Kazunari | Come innn! |
| *door opens* | |
| Kumon | Kazu-san, do you have a sec? |
| Kazunari | Oh, it’s Kumopi. What’s up? |
| Kumon | So you see, I came to consult with you about my role study. |
| I’m playing the role of an artist this time, right? So that’s why I figured drawing pictures would be the quickest and easiest way to prepare for my role. | |
| But even if I suddenly declare that, I have no idea what to draw… | |
| Kazunari | I see, I see. That’s what’s on your mind? |
| Hm~, lemme think~… | |
| (Kumopi can draw whatever he wants. But it’s because he can draw anything that he’s at a loss, huh?) | |
| Y’know, I think the best thing to do is draw what you love. | |
| Kumon | What I love? |
| Kazunari | You heard me! |
| That’s what I do when I’ve hit a wall in the road. | |
| I just throw away all that pesky logic and draw the things I like. | |
| When I take a breather like that, a new idea will come to me all of a sudden! | |
| Kumon | EH!? Kazu-san, you draw while you’re giving yourself a break from drawing!? |
| Kazunari | Ahaha, I mean, yeah! |
| I think that’s pretty normal for painters! | |
| Kumon | Heh~! That’s awesome…! |
| Kazunari | If it’s something you love, then you won’t get tired of drawing it. Plus, you’ll have fun doing it, won’tcha? |
| Kumon | Yeah, I’ll give that a shot! |
| Thanks, Kazu-san! | |
| Kazunari | You’re very welcome~ ✩ |
| Kumon | Like this, I guess… |
| Mm, maybe actually more like this… | |
| *draws* | |
| Misumi | I see you’re hard at work, Kumon. |
| Are you drawing something~? | |
| Wow! You’re great at drawing, Kumon! | |
| Kumon | Really? What do you see here? |
| Misumi | Juza! |
| Kumon | Correct! Does it actually look like nii-chan? |
| Misumi | Yep! The eyes are triangular, so I knew it was Juza right away~. |
| Kumon | Woohoo! I was really particular to convey nii-chan’s cool side so I’m glad you could tell! |
| But… I’m not totally satisfied yet. | |
| Misumi | Really? |
| Kumon | I don’t feel like this is “nii-chan” enough... |
| Misumi | Hey, maybe it’ll come out even cooler if you draw the picture while looking at Juza himself! |
| Kumon | I see, good point! |
| Alright…! |
| *door opens* | |
| Kumon | Nii-chan! Thanks for coming! |
| Juza | No prob. |
| You said you wanted me to help you prepare for your role, right? | |
| Whaddaya want me to do? | |
| Kumon | Okay, hear me out. I want you to be my art model. |
| Juza | Art model… Ah. |
| You were playin’ the role of an artist in your upcoming play, right? | |
| Kumon | Yep! Can I ask you to do this for me? |
| Juza | I don’t mind… |
| But what do models do? | |
| Kumon | Oof… alright, take a seat in this chair. |
| All you have to do is sit here while I draw. | |
| Juza | Got it. |
| Kumon | Thanks! |
| I’ll be starting then. | |
| … | |
| *draws* | |
| Juza | … |
| Kumon | This part goes like this, and… |
| Juza | (…Kumon’s totally focused on his drawing.) |
| (It feels strange, like I feel happy or embarrassed when I think about the fact he’s giving it his all to draw me.) | |
| … | |
| *shifts slightly* | |
| Kumon | AHH! Don’t move, nii-chan! |
| Juza | M-my bad. |
| (I tried sitting back in my chair without thinkin’.) | |
| (Remember, I’m an art model right now. | |
| I can’t move a muscle.) | |
| … | |
| ……… | |
| Kumon | F-finished! |
| Juza | Hah… |
| Did it come out nice? | |
| Kumon | …Um… |
| I think I drew it well, but… | |
| Juza | That’s good enough, ain’t it? It’s nothing to scoff at. |
| Kumon | BUT! You can’t see nii-chan’s charm or coolness at all yet! |
| Juza | Y-you sure? |
| Kumon | You’re way, WAY more rough, strong, and cool, nii-chan! |
| Maybe I need more practice… | |
| Juza | …? |
| Kumon | Alright, I’ll try drawing another one! |
| Sit there, nii-chan! | |
| Juza | ! |
| Uh, let me off the hook for today… |
