[Sudoh starts to look at it, until he recognizes himself and TEARS HIS EYES AWAY, BECAUSE HE SHOULDN'T LOOK WITHOUT PERMISSION, AND ALSO HE'S DYING???

but. eventually creeping closer to gently shake Yusuke awake.]

[artisticliberty]

[his eyelids flutter and he takes a deep breath as he wakes, slowly blinking]

Nnn...?

[dismemberthename]

It's time to get up, Yusuke.

[gently]

/2

[artisticliberty]

Mmm.

[he closes his eyes again, ready to go back to sleep]

[artisticliberty]

[then he SHOOTS UP, dislodging the paper partially stuck to his cheek, his eyes wide as he looks at sudoh]

...

[o_o]

[dismemberthename]

[reaching out and plucking it from his cheek, Not Looking At It]

You fell asleep in the art room.

[artisticliberty]

[there's a slight imprint stuck to his cheek. he blinks as he looks around]

... so I did. What are you--you must be here to carve, yes?

[dismemberthename]

I'm cleaning up, actually. I left kind of a mess yesterday, and today's dates have been announced.

[artisticliberty]

They have... ah, I must have overslept.

[he glances at the mess around him]

I should clean up as well, then.

[dismemberthename]

[wolf pelt is definitely still on him, in all its huge sudoh-smelling fluffiness.]

I'll help.

[offering him a hand up.]

[artisticliberty]

[stares at his hand for a moment before he takes it, and rises]

This belongs to you, doesn't it?

[doesn't take the pelt off just yet, gesturing to it]

[dismemberthename]

Kinda. It's hers, really, but you looked a little cold.

[artisticliberty]

[it soft '^' but he takes it off anyway and holds it out, his fingers idly rubbing at the fur]

It was appreciated.

[dismemberthename]

No problem.

[trading him his art for it, then swooshing it around his shoulders again.]

[artisticliberty]

[he takes the paper, and looks at it, making a face]

... oh. It's become wrinkled.

[dismemberthename]

Looks like you were working pretty hard on it, to fall asleep in the middle.

[artisticliberty]

I had actually finished it earlier, but... I lost track of time. I must have spent hours just looking at it.

[he rubs a hand over his cheek]

I meant to show it to you earlier, but I became... overwhelmed.

[dismemberthename]

[i

help,]

That's fair. Don't worry about it.

[artisticliberty]

Normally I would redraw it, but I fear I would just end up obsessing over it at this point.

[...]

May I show it to you?

[dismemberthename]

Yeah. Go ahead.

[artisticliberty]

[he turns over the (wrinkled) sketch of sudoh's face--but not just any face. it's a sketch of sudoh sleeping, head resting on something soft, eyes shut and lips just slightly parted as one does when sleeping deeply. his hair is a little mussy, a little scattered, some of it splayed out on the pillow. he looks totally serene and content, and there's something very intimate about this sketch... actually, it's a little too good, like maybe yusuke snuck into sudoh's room and sketched him while he was sleeping???]

[dismemberthename]

[uses this icon to show exactly how on point yusuke is]

[he looks at the sketch carefully, noting every detail he can and just. appreciating it quietly, for a few long moments.]

[artisticliberty]

[nailed it!!]

When you asked me if I could draw my feelings before... I mulled on them for a while, and this is what I made.

[dismemberthename]

You're really... an amazing artist, Yusuke. I'm not sure I understand this one as well as the other one, but...

[artisticliberty]

To be honest, I don't fully understand it either. I only drew the image I saw when I thought of you.
