[more time spent with yusuke is something he can't complain about—especially when it involves his art. after all, it's when yusuke shines brightest? it's the best thing for akira to get to see.
which is precisely the reason he falls quiet as yusuke refocuses, allowing for him to work on the drawing...
and giving akira a moment to quietly admire the way yusuke looks when he's so focused on his art.]
[Despite looking straight at him, Yusuke doesn't notice that he's being looked back at all. Alas, such is Yusuke.
It's mutual admiration going on, at the very least.
While Yusuke may spend most of his time focusing on the aesthetics and the more abstract elements of art, that's not to say he's not admiring in a more... subjective way. He probably doesn't even realising he's doing it, so naturally does it just... happen with him.
He absently runs his finger over the drawing on the page when he stops for a moment.]
[he'll let yusuke work on that for a bit as he heads downstairs to make the coffee—which doesn't take too long. soon enough, akira's back, placing the fresh cup of hot coffee down in front of yusuke before taking a seat quietly.
[Yusuke meant to touch up the drawing and he has done that... partly... and then he got distracted.
This is his way of working on it, apparently. It's not taking. Someone needs to give him some support here but alas he wouldn't even know that he needed some help or advice at this juncture.]
Ah, thank you.
[He looks up at him appreciatively before taking up the cup to sip.]

it's not really much like yusuke to look distracted in that way, and akira can't help himself but to cant his head to one side a bit.
curious?
concerned...?
he's not exactly sure.]
Is everything okay? [???]
no subject
...Yes, of course. Everything's going excellently.
[He nods once to himself, very convincingly, and then lays his sketchbook on his knees.]
Shall we take a quick break for something to drink, perhaps?
no subject
[but if yusuke says it's fine, akira will trust him. yusuke knows best about himself and his art, right?
he'll go with that.]
Should I make some coffee, then?
no subject
That would be most appreciated.
no subject
Do you want to come downstairs, or should I just bring it up here?
no subject
Ah, hm... would you mind bringing it up here? I'm just going to clean up my sketch a little.
no subject
Alright. I'll be right back, then.
[he'll let yusuke work on that for a bit as he heads downstairs to make the coffee—which doesn't take too long. soon enough, akira's back, placing the fresh cup of hot coffee down in front of yusuke before taking a seat quietly.

no subject
but he can try, maybe.]
How's the sketch cleanup going?
[one thing at a time though, he supposes.]
no subject
[Yusuke says but he's not near as far as he'd usually be...]
I won't clean it up overly much, I plan to go over it again later, when I'm home.
no subject
[that seems logical enough to akira as he settles back down, even if he's watching yusuke a bit curiously.
hmm.]
no subject
[QUITE FIRMLY.
Though Yusuke does look at him questioningly like does he have something on his face??]
no subject
nothing, yusuke!! it's nothing!!
(it's a lot of things.)]
Art is always worth it, right?
no subject
[SOLEMN NOD
he didn't even notice the gaze averting tbh]
no subject
(probably not, akira just needs to find a real opening....)]
I'll have to take your word for it. I don't have much experience sketching, either.
no subject
You are excellent as a model, though.
no subject
[huh.]
no subject
[Though he will always sketch the unaware... AKIRA IS IDEAL
WONDER WHY
HMM]
no subject
I wouldn't be unwilling to sign an exclusive modeling contract with you.
[o...oh?]
Though I don't know what that would do for your art.
[look, it's progress to spilling intentions, right?]
