Episode 11: Sweet Traps and Trap Breaks * 6

Then my life with Mr. Crowe began.

Crowe was bewildered by the woods, but he followed our instructions for now.

... the horses seem to be intrigued by Mr Crowe. The tempuras came nostalgically, and the unicorns... well, some of them were a little alert or holding horns, but some of them approached Mr. Crowe from the beginning. And after about 10 days, most unicorns managed to allow Mr. Crowe to be there. The unaccompanied ones remain unaccompanied... but some unicorns seem to like Claire perfectly.

In the meantime, I decided to have Mr. Crowe use the room in my house. And... when Crowe first came into the woods, he showed me to Laocles' house, where I had Fai and Laocles have a cup of tea, and in the meantime, I went back to my house under the name 'I'm going to clean up the house a little'... and added another room to my house.

... why should Laocles stay in the same house?

If you're going to be vigilant, you should have Laocles with you all the time, and you should have Claire with you all the time. That's why it was added.

I thought it was safe, and then I even kept drawing Mr. Crowe.

I'm still nervous about getting my nude dessert on... with my clothes on.

However, because Claire is worried about the same clothes, Faye bought me a woman's clothes in town. Crowe's supplies are mainly provided by Faye and Faye's maids. Thank you.

... that's how Mr. Crowe got used to the woods, and after two weeks, now he's starting to live a pretty familiar life.

Um, please do it again today.

And today, for the first time, I paint Mr. Crowe outdoors.

... of course, it's not a nude painting, it's just a normal one. Paint on paper in clear watercolor, as usual.

I just used to draw indoors. I wanted you to sit on the sofa, lie down on the bed, and let Claire paint in an easy-going posture.

But today it's outdoors. The background is the forest! Claire's eyes look bright and beautiful.

"Is this all right?

"Yes, just a little..."

Mr Crowe is sitting in the woods today. Place a cloth over the soft grass and place Claire on top of it. Just by doing so, some unicorns stop by and start sitting next to Mr. Crowe, and the tempura flickers its wings with interest, so it goes on the screen as well.

Now, please don't move for 20 minutes.

"Yes, I understand."

Then Mr Crowe stays still for ten minutes.

... it should be very difficult for someone who is not training as a model or muscle and strength like Laocles to stay still for 10 minutes.

Crowe was spicy for the first few times in about five minutes, so I saw it and cut it up.

However, if I kept drawing for a week, Mr. Crowe would have gotten used to it. It seems fine now for about 20 minutes, thanks to which I can draw down a little bit in 20 minutes, arrange the bottom drawing during Mr. Claire's break, and then have him play the same pose again and redraw the bottom drawing...

"Good work. Please take a break."

When she finished drawing roughly downwards, Ms. Crowe suddenly lost her posture and took a deep breath.

"Hah... I thought you were getting used to it a little bit, but it's hard to stay still after all."

While Crowe was looking a little tired, the horse rubbed against her. Maybe it means, "Good day," I think.

"I'm sorry, let me do something hard."

"No, I don't mind."

Crowe smiled and then stood up and came to me. Then he peeks into the drawing paper that I drew. [M]

I look forward to finishing it.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it, too. Crowe giggled and laughed... and said again.

"... and yet, I'm not tired of it."

"I'm not tired of watching you."

"I'm glad to hear that, but I don't think you're sleeping much. Yesterday, the painting I was supposed to paint was finished....."

Yeah, that's, uh...

There was a painting that would have been completed if it had been finished a little, so I drew it without sleeping. When I noticed it, it was morning. But that's what I think.

"... how many pictures have you drawn in the last two weeks?"

"Well, there's only one watercolor. I have about 3 pencils. And then Crockie... um"

When I scrolled through the sketchbook, most of the pages of one book were filled. Yeah, I painted a lot.

"Do you ever get tired of asking again?

"Yeah."

I nodded firmly to Mr. Crowe, who seemed a little strange. I'm not tired of drawing her. I can assure you that.

"I'm just learning... about the curve. Less muscle than Laocles, many things are easy to understand and fun."

Fufu, that's probably true.

Laocles... is a mass of bones and muscles, so it's hard to understand how fat feels. There is also a shadow that hides due to muscle upset, so I can clearly see that when I draw Mr. Crowe for that.

Somehow... for the first time I was drawing Mr. Crowe, I noticed things like, "Well, human eyelids cover the sphere," "this is how my skin is pulled from my arms to my sides," and "Laocles' hands are very muscular."... comparisons are important.

That's how I finished the bottom drawing by drawing Mr. Claire.

"Good work. That's all for today. I think Laocles has prepared a bath, so please go ahead."

"Okay.... then, sweeten your words."

Because Mr. Crowe is a beautiful person, we make sure to boil the bath every day. When Laocles and I were alone, we took care of each other and took a bath... but, uh, where there were women, taking a bath outdoors, yeah, uh, even if there were walls in the enclosure, a little.

After seeing Crowe go home, I paint the background forest.

Mr Crowe can draw his own, so there's only the background. The background is the background, so you don't have to draw it in that detail. Especially if it's painted under the watercolor.

... just...

"... hmm?

I feel a little uncomfortable.

... I wonder what. This discomfort.

Mr. Crowe painted it right, and the forest, well, I've painted it many times, so I can paint it right.

But... somehow, somehow, it looks strange. Specifically, people and backgrounds look a little off.

I wonder why.

I murmur as I stroke the nearby horse, but I don't know what's wrong with me. [M]

Um... I wonder why people and backgrounds look so different. What's wrong with Perth? Is Dessanne crazy? After all, after drawing a person, you look at the background without that person and draw it?

... I tried to think about it, but I couldn't find the answer. I mean, maybe Dessanne's not crazy.

Does that mean that the background is too light for the drawing of people? I wonder if it doesn't look good in harmony.

Hmm... what should I do? If I try to prime this, will the discomfort disappear?

I wanted to prime it within that day, but Laocles slightly entered the room and threw me into bed, so I decided to give up and go to bed.

Speaking of which, I haven't slept yesterday, so I definitely have to go to bed.

... maybe the discomfort in the painting is due to lack of sleep.

I don't think so. I have to go to bed early.

Sleep well, it's morning. She seems to have been able to sleep well, and her body feels slightly lighter. It was a pleasant morning.

... but...

"... hmm?

After all, the painting remained somehow uncomfortable.

"... isn't it going well?

"Mmm...."

On that day, Claire went out again and began undercoating there. When I applied the primer, there was a feeling that the discomfort had faded slightly, and I felt relieved to deepen the shadow and create a watercolor specific seepage to darken the color....

... the more you draw, the more discomfort you get.

You're not feeling well, are you? You haven't rested in a while. "

"That's not true, but..."

Crowe is worried, but I'm feeling really well. [M]

So, the problem with this painting is that it is in this painting, but...

Mm-hmm.

"Yeah!? Corn!? You started worrying about painting!?

"Yeah."

The other day, Faye was surprised when she revealed her troubles to Faye, who had brought her luggage.... you don't have to be so surprised.

"Yes... if you can even draw a picture, it won't bother you! Even a corn like that bothers me....."

"I'm worried about painting... here"

"I see. Yeah, well, I hope the corn is worried about the painting... No, I'm surprised. Yeah, which one...."

When I pointed to the painting, Faye looked at the picture in the middle of it... and then tilted his neck.

You're good.

Yeah, that's weird.

"Isn't that weird?

... I didn't feel uncomfortable with Faye.

"Where is it? Isn't he good?"

"Um... I think I have a background with someone. But maybe Desan isn't crazy... is he crazy?"

"Yeah? I don't know, but I don't know...."

When he told Fai his troubles, Fai stared at the painting as he roared.

... and a few minutes later.

Yeah, I don't know.

I didn't tell you!

"Well, no. I'm worried sick. We still have plenty of time."

"Mmm...."

That said, it's the second week of the week. Crowe has a month and a half to lend. I feel anxious.

"For now, look at the luggage. He asked me to. I brought it."

That's what Faye said and started spreading the baggage he brought.

... Faye brought me groceries and Crowe's supplies. There, I stopped drawing food in front of Mr. Crowe because I didn't feel like it was a good idea.

"In the meantime, a corn ham, cheese and bread."

"Yeah."

"... did you ask me again?"

"Yeah, I love this."

I've loved this since Laocles got me a ham and cheese sandwich between the bread.

"Then there's a lot for Mr. Claire. Salted meat, vegetables, bacon, butter, dried beans... Yeah, it's gonna take a few more days."

Yeah, I think so. There are other fields in this forest with some vegetables.... most of what you can pick is Edamame. And the kettle.

"So, Mr. Crowe's clothes!

After checking the groceries, it's time for Mr. Crowe's clothes.

"You don't have to prepare so much..."

"No! It's time for a corner break! Put on a lot of clothes! So, paint it on the corn!

Mr. Crowe's clothes are different again.

I have a dress and a simple dress. A little scared blouse and a skirt would be nice.

I also brought some decorations.... I'll give you the money. By the way, in the form of a jewel.

Faye sold the jewelry at the jewellery store and bought the decorations for the money. Only gems without much magic are used, but there are many very beautiful ones lined up.

"... that?

Among them was a slightly misplaced ornament.

"Hmm? Oh, that's it. Fine."

... that's a ribbon. It seems simple and more plain.

Among all the sparkling ornaments, only one of the ribbons looked floating.

"There, in the woods in the corner, right? It's not like I'm going to a ball, so I thought this might be good."

Fay showed me a soft piece made of cotton and the ribbon I just saw.

"If it fits these clothes, it's not gold and jewelry, it's this ribbon."

... if it fits.

Yeah, I see.

A simple dress doesn't suit sparkling gems. A ribbon is better for clothes with clean cotton laces.

Not a party jewel for a piece of cotton lace. Conversely, this ribbon won't go with the party dress!

All right, all right!

"Claire's not like the woods!

"... eh?

"I think Mr. Crowe is not in the woods, but in the castle and at party venues."

A perfectly organized, art-like smile. A woman like that, like the best masterpiece made by a human hand... floats in a forest without a human hand.

"Yes, that's right... maybe so."

Mr. Crowe seemed a little confused, but said with a bitter smile.

"I just go to parties and in front of the mirror stand and in the bedroom every day. You're more familiar with it."

... I see. That's what Mr. Crowe is.

Someone who looks brighter than anyone at the party. He's too well prepared to be in the woods.

"I'm sorry. With a woman like this."

That's what Claire said... for a moment, I felt like I was lonely.

"Please draw me somewhere indoors. The woods... don't suit me. Though I admire it."

... I know her eyes are perfect for the woods. When I saw Crowe when the unicorns came to play, I felt strongly that I wanted to paint him in the woods. Your narrowed eyes were so woody. The skin that fell off the leakage day was dazzling and very beautiful.

I want to paint that kind of girl. I really want to draw.

However, if she is seen over the drawing paper, it will probably make her feel at the Mansion. I'm sure there have been many paintings so far.

In other words... I don't think the forest suits her, I'm sure she's just unfamiliar with the forest.

So it's settled.

Well then, let's do something like a forest.

What?

"So, I want you to look like a forest."

I'm going to make Mr. Crowe look like a forest. [M]
