[ ... oh, boy. This poor guy. Maya will just sit back sympathetically, staying close in case he manages to get dizzy again. ]

[bufudyne]

[SNARF SNARF SNARF]

It is... quite amazing how delicious something tastes when you've reached this level of hunger. [He's just about done. Yeah. Just scraps left in the can at this point.]

[scooptimistic]

You can't ever really go wrong with canned crab! I'm glad it helped, though

[bufudyne]

[Truly, he is revived. So much so that he braces his back against the wall behind him and starts getting up. Okay. Still dizzy but not as bad.]

Very much so. I will repay you in kind, when I am able.

[...with canned crab??]

[scooptimistic]

Don't even worry about it! I was saving it for a good cause or a special occasion, and I'd say this counts as both.

[ though she's still watching him very carefully. ]

[bufudyne]

[He's definitely still unsteady, and pale as anything... but he can be stubborn too. He can't just go on sitting here in the street anyhow.]

I see... [Hmm. Yeah. That really is nice of her.] I hope to make this the only occasion where I become this bad.

[scooptimistic]

Were you trying to avoid eating?

[ ... honestly, town?? ]

[bufudyne]

Yes. The bluebird... he is gone now, but he would make quite a fuss if I tried eating anything. I presumed that was the "temptation" I was not supposed to give into.

[And here he is... more beanpoley than ever before.]

[scooptimistic]

I thought that might be it... I can't believe they'd give you a quest like that... one that actually endangers your health.

[bufudyne]

It is not so strange. They give us quests to seek out dangerous creatures as well.

[...But you don't normally have to starve yourself for that, Yusuke. Also it's optional!! He's starting to walk, slowly, but gestures absently for Maya to come along.]

[scooptimistic]

That's kind of... entirely different. We were forced to do this, weren't we?

[ But sure, she'll follow along, keeping her steps a little slower to match Yusuke's weary stride. ]

[bufudyne]

Ah... yes. It does differ in that case.

We weren't offered a choice in this matter. [Hmm. Why, though? ... No good, he's still feeling too sluggish and dragged out to think about it.]

[scooptimistic]

We can think it over later. I'm sure as time goes on, we might even be able to discover a pattern of sorts.

[bufudyne]

Yes. Patterns are emerging even now that I've noticed... I wonder if some colour will return as a result of my actions?

[HOPEFULLY.]

[scooptimistic]

I'm sure it will. You've done really well, Yusuke-kun.

[ she firmly believes that! ]

[bufudyne]

...Thank you.

[He's a touch bewildered at the upfront praise, but accepts it with a short nod.]

What about you? Were you able to complete the quest?

[scooptimistic]

Nope! I completely forgot at the last minute!

[ she sucks. ]

[bufudyne]

[Pff-- just the phrasing has him trying desperately to hold back what was absolutely a snort of laughter...]

You forgot. I see. Well, I am glad to know that nothing bad happened to you for not completing it.

[scooptimistic]

If anything does, I'll figure out a way to deal with it.

[ Of course. ]

But I promise not to worry you! You're still going to need some time to recover and rest.

[bufudyne]

Though it may not be convincing to hear now, I am certain I shall be back to normal by tomorrow. So I will be capable of worrying if there is a need.

[CONFIDENCE??? Either way, he just will eat some more things and relax and sketch.]

I always wonder why I cannot simply sustain myself on art alone. That would be so much more convenient.

[scooptimistic]

... That might be so, but I happen to think enjoying delicious food is also kind of an art form.

[bufudyne]

Hmm. Yes... The preparation and laying out of food can be artistic, but I suppose so too the eating of it.

[scooptimistic]

Exactly! It's an experience you can get when you view really good art, too...

[bufudyne]

The right artwork can truly make one feel full. [He places a hand on his chest to illustrate. Full in the heart!]

[scooptimistic]

And the right food can give you artistic inspiration for days. So it's definitely important!
