Hello, my name is Soubi Agatsuma. When I first arrived here, I opened up commissions for that band everybody was obsessed over. Since we've moved past that, I want to advertise my art once more.

I'll paint anything. There isn't anything I won't paint. Subject matter, size, object, anything. I'm a university student majoring in art and have painted since I was a small child. I'll let my examples speak for themselves.

[The images he shows are simply pictures he's taken. One of them is a butterfly pinned down, one wing almost torn off in the struggle of trying to escape but being unable to. Another is a butterfly with its wings slowly burning away as it tries to fly towards the sun. The third example is a large landscape portrait of a forest...

With dead butterflies all along the ground. When he's in a bad mood, he paints butterflies. He's always in a bad mood.]

I have some examples of those guys that were here but I doubt anybody is interested in seeing those. If anybody is, though, take them off my hands. They're taking up space that I could use for other pieces and it was a waste of resources. 20 chroma a piece. 30 chroma if you want some details changed. I could change the faces.

We'll discuss the price of original pieces if you're interested but my base rate is around 40 chroma. I'm a fast worker.

Thank you for your consideration.

[Is this a good ad? No but it's an ad and that's all that matters. It isn't like he ever actually did commission work before this.]

i'm not a simpleton!!!

we have plenty of amazing artisans but i'm pretty sure if they did stuff like this they would lose their job

who said anything about bringing something to life

isn't art supposed to be artificial



wait do you mean literally or figuratively

[depreciated]

Oh.

You're an idiot. I'm sorry. Obviously I can't talk about this with you. Hold on. Let me do something for you that will be easy for you to understand.

[He sends a picture of a poorly drawn cat, smiling.]

Better?

i'm so sorry for him

[inheritedpain]

i'm not an idiot!!!

that's terrible
your butterflies were better

but fine i guess you come from a world where statues can't cultivate themselves into spirits

either that or you're stupid

i was ASKING because if you could actually paint things that were good enough to dream themselves to life that would actually be INTERESTING

i'm also sorry for this guy as well

[depreciated]

You really are an idiot. Of course I can't do that. Even children know you can't do that.

[But then again...

They are in a world where people have all types of different powers. Anything might be possible. Soubi would rather insult him, though.]

who doesn't love a trashfire

[inheritedpain]

don't you know ANYTHING

but fine, whatever, at least that means i don't have to fight dead butterfly fairies any time soon

you should try painting something people would actually want if you're trying to sell them

is it just because you need the chroma

trashfires are beautiful in their own ways!!

[depreciated]

You assume that because you don't find them aesthetically pleasing then others would not. I didn't paint them to appeal to anybody anyway. I painted them because I wanted to paint them.

If there's something you want to see then tell me, pay me, and I'll do it. That's the simple way of seeing something you want.

But yes, I need the money.

[He's got a mouth to feed okay.]

[inheritedpain]

well how are you going to sell things that you didn't paint to appeal to people isn't that the whole point

but fine sure

you can paint fairy

if it's good i'll pay you double

[ he sends a photo ]

[depreciated]

Only you have complained about my chosen subject matter for the record.

Is there anywhere specific you want Fairy? Perhaps in a garden or something?

[He can be polite when discussing business okay.]

[inheritedpain]

that's because most people who didn't like it wouldn't say anything at all

so i'm doing you a favour


by a river

[ He wishes he could say 'in Gusu' but no one would know what he meant. ]

[depreciated]

Is that so? Plenty have said they enjoy my paintings here. You may be an outlier.

Is there a particular season that you would want?
