Somehow that feels like a backhanded compliment.

[parodeity]

really
but i meant it completely genuinely

[fabrefactions]

It's essentially a toy from Japan that lets you make music.
It is maybe a little ... strange to claim superstar mastery of one.

[parodeity]

does that mean you are against joining a band for a hit single

[fabrefactions]

I would doubt my ability to play any sort of instrument, honestly. I could be commissioned for any album artwork, if you wanted something more unique that a photograph of the band.

[parodeity]

i would absolutely love that
my own art skills are
well
sbahj

[fabrefactions]

"sbahj"?
Submit a concept when the time comes and I can discuss payments and edits.

[it ain't his first time at the commission rodeo.]

[parodeity]

sweet bro and hella jeff
my webcomic

[fabrefactions]

[there is a pause in replies as Yusuke is obviously searching sweet bro and hella jeff and

ah




right.]

I see.

[congrats on possibly traumatising an artist dave, well done.]

How long have you been drawing it for?

[parodeity]

[ YOU'RE WELCOME, YUSUKE ]

idk since i was like twelve or so i think
so like
five or six years

[fabrefactions]

[didn't you have a better upbringing in this place, dave?? where did this come from??? why??? how does he delete this knowledge?]

That is a long time to devote to one project.

[okay fine that is more impressive.]

It must be important to you.

[parodeity]

[ HE DOES AND FOR THAT REASON THINGS LIKE THE HALLOWEEN STRIP DON'T EXIST IN THE REC VERSION...or it didn't used to. dave sure does remember his alternative upbringing now. thanks child abuse ]

it is
or i guess it became that way
its fun to do even if im terrible at art

[fabrefactions]

[yusuke will continue to be oblivious of his own alternative abusive upbringing until such a time that I decide he's far too happy and that needs to stop.]

...

[well he wasn't going to say anything about the art but dear god.]

The interest in art alone is as important as the drawing itself. And if you continue to draw you will see improvements, just from the action of repetitive drawing and studying subject matter alone.

[parodeity]

haha yeah maybe
even if i did though
sbahj has a kind of terrible stylistic bent the fans expect now you know
the internet is a strange and mysterious place

[fabrefactions]

So even with improvement over time through repetition and practice... you would have to continue with the more basic [nailed it] style of art without showcasing your development...?

[... weird, indeed.]

Still, simplifying artwork is a skill in and of itself.

[parodeity]

youre a really nice guy arent you

[fabrefactions]

?

I'm just making observations.

[parodeity]

yeah but like
youve been deliberately making them in a rather kind way i think
youre a good person
i have good instincts for this

[fabrefactions]

[... ... he's not sure how to respond to that, but in a good way?]

... Thank you?
I'm not about to make pointlessly cruel observations when it would be unnecessary...

[All art should be ... encouraged, really. Better to draw anything than not draw at all.]

[parodeity]

yep ive decided
i want to be friends

[fabrefactions]

I.
Okay?
I don't have any problems with that.

[parodeity]

cool
from this point forth we are joined together
in the bonds of holy brotrimony

[fabrefactions]

I see.
That sounds very official.

[no it doesn't. but okay.]

[parodeity]

we could even get matching rings if you wanted

[fabrefactions]

That seems somewhat excessive. A verbal agreement is fine.
