[ the presentation alone and dedication to his brother should count as a skill ]
It was a pretty good presentation. A friend of mine has a cute younger sibling, but she would sooner drag him than compliment him. Not that I blame her... Gladio is pretty draggable.
He's big, all muscles, and a huge chick magnet. Any time we take our eyes off of him, he'll be flirting or texting some girl or another. Oh! I have some pics that I could show you.
Okay, one sec! Let's see... [ Turning on his camera and scrolling through. He'll first find this shot. Then he finds this one. ] Here! He's the one in the back without a shirt.
[ he taps a canvas with an underpainting of the garden outside the meeting hall, with what looks like two young men having tea. only a few patches of color have been added so far. ]
Started this guy on Monday, and I've been trying to mix paint all week to get the colors I want. It's not my usual style, though, and oils take a bit of time to dry, so there's only so much I can do at once. Other than that...
[ he holds out a sketchbook! it's the one he usually carries around, already well-worn. inside are sketches from around the prism - the people, the locations, the parties - and some people (and a bird?) that may be unrecognizable to prompto, but familiar to kumon. ]
[ they are pretty small in the painting but might have familiar silhouettes. ]
Oil paints take days to dry, so you have to take it slow. It... might have been smarter to do this one in acrylics instead, but I wanted to try something different, you know?
And that depends on how detailed I want it to be! Some sketches take a few seconds, some up to a few minutes. Most of those are probs... thirty seconds, tops? Except for the landscapes - those took a little longer.
That is really nice of you. Are you planning on displaying it?
[ go ahead and lean in. he'll lean towards him when he does. ]
Dun dun dun! The brother! It's nice being able to have a face to go with the name. I kept just imagining a taller Kumon with a mustache. [ he is way way different omg ]
The resemblance is there, but not that much! Hyodle's got way more of a tough guy look than the excited puppy one, but he's still a big softie on the inside. It's super cute!
You mean Sumi? I don't know if he still works as a clown, actually, but he's in here. [ flips through a few other pages... this one's full of summer troupe sketches, including kumon, but he points to one in particular. ] Right here!
No, no, you have to see it! Hyodle doesn't smile that often, you know? But he was totally psyched after Kumopi's first play; it was so adorable!
[ there's a fond smile on kazu's face. ]
He totes is! And he's one of the best actors in the company, too - a total natural! Sometimes you've got to bribe him with triangles, but it all works out!

[ time to paw through the sketchbook. ]
How long does it take for you to do a sketch?
