Fox: I will be waiting for you on the 4th floor.
Fox: See you soon.

[what awaits eichi on the fourth floor of the hospital is not... what a hospital typically looks like. the rooms have all been stripped of their equipment and turned into art galleries. a plaque at the entrance proclaims this floor for members of taisho roman revolution, and indeed there's a lot of madder red painted on the walls in the hallway. there's a wing for shu, okami, and fox.

the door to fox's room is open]

[Eichi hates going to the hospital but at least when he gets to the fourth floor it doesn't look like a hospital, which gains a sigh of relief.

The door is open, but to be polite Eichi knocks as he enters.]

Hell-o~

[fox is sitting on a commandeered doctor's rolly chair flipping through his sketchbook. he glances up at eichi and smiles, rises to his feet]

Welcome. Thank you for coming. Ah, I would have invited you to Taisho for the better setup, but this will have to do.

[the room is filled with paintings, most of which are of the nude or semi-nude variety. a small plaque at the door reads "a study in bodily expressions, by fox/kitagawa yusuke"]

Of course. I understand.

[And of course he did. Shu wasn't quiet about their uh. Disagreement. So this will have to do.]

I don't mind it here, though I have to admit I didn't originally care for the idea of coming to a hospital~ This hardly looks like one anymore.

It hasn't been in use by nearly anyone, so it seemed best to reuse the space for something better. To think I'd have my own gallery exhibition, even one I made myself...

[he looks both proud and humbled]

Anyway, feel free to look around, although I do have a proposition for you.

Yes... So I can imagine. With only one person with any medical training, this digestive hospital would be hard to use. I've visited this one a few times in my life...

[Sickboy Eichi has seen all the good hospitals!!!

He does take a moment to look around at the gallery, but doesn't waste too much time.]

Oh, of course~ What would you ask of me?

[oh right, he did mention having an illness when he was alive...]

I want to paint you. Not just sketch you, but properly paint you. Ah, and it would be part of my private collection, so I would not ask you to model nude unless you wish to.

Oh...

[THAT SURE IS A PROPOSITION. Like he expected the nude modeling honestly, but he didn't expect getting the CHOICE to. That's the tough part. He does actually stop to think about that. It's just Fox's personal collection, probably because of Shu. And Eichi doesn't know if he could go nude... but then he's already been nude in front of Fox. But a proper painting...

That would take some time. Some time for Eichi to be sitting around nude in front of someone he has some amount of lust for but has been rejected by.]

What do you think would look best as a painting?

I have two different composition ideas based on how comfortable you feel posing nude. I think either would make a wonderful piece. Of course, the idea is to present the, um--

[clears his throat, a tad pink in his cheeks ///]

--the litheness of your body to match an expression of mystery, of coyness that is both demure yet alluring. I think... it would suit you quite well.

[The clearing of his throat gets Eichi's eyes to connect with Fox's again as he raises an eyebrow. There's something fun to look at.]

Hmmm... then I don't mind~

It'll only be the two of us, after all.

[his expression lights up immediately]

Yes, of course. I have a room at the end of the hall set up, whenever you are ready.

Well...

[Sucks in a breath, then lets it out slowly.]

I'm here already. Might as well, right?

As you say. Please, follow me.

[he heads down to a smaller room at the end of the hall--what was most likely a patient consultation room once upon a time, it's been stripped of all equipment save for an adjustable lamp and sink, which currently has all of fox's art materials. several sheets have been laid down, one covering the wall as well, and there is a small sofa, only big enough for two people max, that's also covered in a white sheet]

[Eichi does follow along, trying not to look too anxious.

He looks around the room once they get there, and he walks... toward the sheet, pausing for a moment to look at Fox before he just... slowly starts undressing.]

Will you help me pose? I have never done anything like this before.

[////

glances away, being polite]

Yes, of course.

[Laughs a little bit at the way he turns away.]

You've already seen me nude. Is watching me undress so much worse?

[fluster fluster]

I-I have only seen you partially nude.

[dreams don't count...................right]

I understand watching makes some people uncomfortable, and I want you to be as comfortable as possible for this.

Ah, I did cover myself with my wings before, didn't I?

[He doesn't cover himself now though, just carefully taking off his clothing and folding them, then setting it aside.]

But I'm fine with it now. After all, I've chosen to do this.

Then...

[slowly he turns around, and to his credit fox doesn't immediately gawk at eichi. he's still blushing faintly, of course, but he keeps his gaze forward and neutral as possible]

Thank you for allowing me this opportunity.

[It's a little wierd when Eichi can't help but remember the scarring he has... on his groin... but that's fine. Surely it won't be noted!!!]

No, thank you! I've never been painted before. It's quite an exciting prospect~

[the dick scar will absolutely 100% be included in the final product]

Here, let me show you the pose I want you to take.

[fox lays down on the small couch with his legs dangling over the edge, crossed, with his back arched slightly, body held up by his elbows]

Something like this, generally. If it isn't comfortable with your wings, you can sit up more than this.

[Eichi studies the pose for only a moment. He knows how to do it after a glance- his ability to learn to do something by simply watching is helpful in that, and this isn't even something difficult. Though Fox is right that his wings may make things difficult.

He nods, unfurling his silvery-white tail from around his leg as he makes his way over.]

I think I can handle that.

[scoots off the sofa to give eichi room, and goes to sit at his easel, making finger frames and peering at eichi through them]

Good, thank you. Ah, move your right arm a little bit further back? Yes, perfect. Can you hold that pose for a while?

[fox has entered Artist Mode]

[Just moves as he is asked to, his wail and wings moving to try to support whatever he can,t to make the pose a little easier to hold for some time.]

I should be able to, yes.

Excellent.

[picks up his pencil to begin sketching, and then pauses]

Ah... there is just one small thing by your hair. May I adjust--?

[he approaches, oddly cautious, lifting his hand as though to touch but not until eichi gives consent]
