<Anyway, I'm going to log off now...>

<Okay. I'll take a look at the lyrics you wrote later.>

<Sleep tight.>

<K, mind looking at my rough draft as well?>

<Sure.>

<Mhm... I might log off too...

This seems like a good place for me to stop.>

<Oh, Enanan, before you do...>

<Ms. Mochizuki came over to my house yesterday and wanted to thank you for what you did during her job shadowing.>

<She also seems to be really looking forward to you teaching her how to sketch next time.>

<Really? That's great!>

<Oh, you mean the housekeeper that you agreed to teach because she was having trouble drawing?>

<Yeah. She wanted someone to help build up her confidence before she painted with kindergarteners during her shadowing.>

<So, I taught her a few tricks for drawing animals, and she got to the point of making them easily recognizable.>

<Oh, really?>

<Hm? You sound surprised...>

<Hang on. Does this Mochizuki person draw stuff in a way that makes her look like an abstract artist?>

<Yeah, kinda...>

<She was pretty conscious of that and wanted to learn how to draw things in a way that was easily recognizable to others. But...>

<But...?>

<It's like the better she got, the more her individuality began to disappear.>

<And I began to worry if I'd done the right thing, even though I helped her achieve her goal.>

<I see...>

<So, I asked Honami to draw like she normally does.>

<Yes, she mentioned that to me.

And it seems to have helped quite a bit.>

<Yeah...>

<In the end, Honami probably just needed to find a way to enjoy art more than learning how to draw per se.>

<Interesting...>

<Sounds like you really did your best as a teacher, Enanan.>

<I never play around when it comes to art if that's what you're implying.>

<Yeah, I know.>

<Huh? Then don't say stuff like that.>

<No, I was really moved by what you did♪>

<Is that actually true...?>

<...>

<Once more, Enanan, thank you for agreeing to help Ms. Mochizuki.>

<Especially since I haven't been able to give back to her despite her taking such good care of me.>

<But you helped me help her.

So, thank you.>

<...!>

<Hehe. You're very welcome.>

<I'm glad that I could help you out somehow, K. And I'll always be willing to lend you a hand. It doesn't have to be just about art!>

<Something other than art? Such as...?>

<Huh? Um... F-Fashion, makeup and the latest trends...!>

<Oh, that could be helpful...

I really don't know much about those things.>

<My sweats are usually enough for me, but I may need your help when it comes to actual clothes...>

<Sure thing, K!

I'll always be happy to teach you whatever you need to know!>

<Haha. Good for you, Enanan.>

...

<Sorry for keeping you like this, Enanan. You're free to go if you're done for the day.>

<Oh, about that...!

If you don't mind, I'd like to wait until you finish checking my rough drafts.>

<What? Okay, but... Are you sure?>

<Yeah, because working on the illustrations for other scenes while I wait will be a better use of my time.>

<Okay. Then, I'll take a look at it right now.>

<Thanks!>

(My initial hope was to have her teach Ms. Mochizuki how to draw, but...)

<Since you're all fired up and good to go, Enanan, can I ask you to make a couple more assets for me?>

<What are you piling on for?

It's gonna depend on what you actually want, so give it to me straight...>

<Awesome! You're the best, Ms. Enanan!>

<Hey, I haven't actually agreed to anything yet!>

Hehe...

(This also ended up being a good experience for Ena. I'm really glad for her.)
