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.]

[Soubi has never quite received this type of reaction. He doesn't really take it as if his own art is this amazing. That definitely is not it. Lorenz is probably just over the top. That is more likely it.

Smile still there, he nods and hands over his device.]

Thank you so much. I'm glad to know that I was able to bring what you desired.

[Tappity tap, giving Soubi so much extra tip money, hum de dum...]

You are remarkably skilled. Whenever I am in need of a painting, I will come to you first and foremost.

[He says "whenever" like needing a painting is a regular thing, but he is buying two of them right this second, so... maybe.]

[depreciated]

[Okay so he isn't going to turn down somebody buying more from him but he definitely has to wonder just how many paintings this guy wants? Like how often is he going to buy a painting? You don't do this every day, right?

Or does he just want a house full of paintings? Soubi won't complain.]

You're too kind.

[hotproblems]

[His many money taps done, he passes the device back over, waving his other hand like, no, no...]

Not at all! I am appreciator of the arts! One mustn't ignore the finer things in life.

[Like spending your money on cool paintings... He's got it on lock.]

[depreciated]

[Does his art really count as 'finer things'? Soubi doubts it but if it gets him money then who is he to disagree? It doesn't matter as long as he does as he's told so okay, Lorenz. Believe that.]

Oh, I see. You must have a good eye for these things, then. [And usually they like compliments.]
