“Oh? I certainly hope it assists you, then. Do tell me if you decide to try!” He responded with a smile, quite interested in hearing if the habit might also be useful for Aerith’s floral arrangements. Having been to the shop once or twice now, he had to admit that it was quite beautiful. She had an eye for making things rather lovely, in his opinion. He was actually eager to provide her with some art that might help accent the setting in some way with her flowers.

So she didn’t think a mess would hurt? Well, that was nice to know. “I’m glad we both have a similar point of view on that. Not only can they be unavoidable… I think sometimes an accidental mess can be quite helpful in the process.” Sure, sometimes it could ruin something, but… Other times it almost made something better, a little surprise possibility that he wouldn’t have considered otherwise.

Though he was pretty sure he had a solid idea of how he wanted this piece to look now that she was sitting and they had the backdrop worked out. His focus shifting to the paper as she turned her head one way, then finally to the position he requested. Starting with the outline of her form and making note of the lighting. “Hm?” He started a moment later, almost slipping into his ‘focus mode’ as he worked. He did have to stop and consider it. “You do have a lovely smile, Aerith.” He commented, thinking back to how she’d appeared before when pleased with something. “So if you would be so kind, I shall try to do the outline of your face so you don’t have to hold it for too long.”
