Not all of the time, necessarily. Shirtlessness is a socially acceptable form of male nudity, for example, but that does not mean men always feel the need to walk around shirtless.
[Which is also disappointing, even if Yusuke adheres to it. Grudgingly.]
Hmm... That's true. I suppose I shouldn't flout any potential laws here. It would be disrespectful, after the authorities so kindly rescued me from the wilds. They could just as easily throw me back out...
I doubt they'll throw you back out, probably give you a warning or something since it's not like we're from here. I just wouldn't push their buttons right now.
It's only natural that such a large upheaval would take time to adjust to. This place is very beautiful, but I doubt I will be able to paint at all until I have had a chance to settle myself and adjust.
[Because being able to paint ASAP is clearly the priority here...]
[Yusuke seemed pretty talented if he could paint whatever he wanted. Although, when he frames his fingers and looks at Yosuke through them, he couldn't help but lean back a little.]
Pretty sure I'm not interesting enough, buddy.
[More like he wasn't sure he wanted to be painted at all.]
Perhaps not. [Wow, blunt, Yusuke.] But even the most ordinary of exteriors can hide a rich inner life. My search for meaning never ceases, even in the face of the mundane.
[Or maybe Yosuke really is just an ordinary guy with glitter in his pants. Oh well.]
[rood. he totes more than a guy with glitter in his pants.]
Can I ask why?
[He was curious! The only artistic person he knows is Kanji and the dude doesn’t act like this about his craft. Yosuke pulled his headphones from his neck to shake them out as well.]
I suppose you have a point, but wouldn’t you moss something if you spend too much time looking for inspiration? I mean, focus on one thing too much and you sorta miss what’s around you, y’know?

Do you even know if they do? If they didn't, they'd probably be walking around nude all the time, don't you think?
[God, this guy was going to fluster him into a heart attack.]

[Why does it sound like he still plans to strip eventually, though...]
That aside, have you been here for very long yourself?
no subject
[Stop being so disappointed, Yusuke...]
Not very long compared to others. Definitely not long enough for it to really sink in.
[He'll have a proper freak out soon enough.]

[Everyone has their priorities and if this how he copes then Yosuke wasn’t going to say anything. Not like Yosuke had much of a plan himself.]
Is this the kind of thing you normally paint?
no subject
[He makes frames with his fingers and surveys Yosuke through them, as if deciding whether he's worthy of that artistic interest.]

Inspiration is everywhere. If my eyes are not open to it, there's no telling what wonders might escape my gaze.
