			            Nathaniel could guess what Mitsu was thinking. He wouldn't tease him much but it was nice leading him on like that. He gave a small chuckle. He finished his meal, finished his sparkling water.  "Excuse me. I'll be in the studio when you're ready" He went to thank Nora. He kissed her cheek, she called him a Casanova and swatted him away; he laughed and went off to the art studio to set out all he needed.

			             ❤ M I T S U K I N I ❤ S A G E ❤What do you think of me now? Mitsu left immediately to go change. There was no way he was going to wear the clothes he wore the whole day for a painting. Mostly because he was wearing clothes made for casual wear, not modeling. Hell, he didn't even model them when he made them. Instead, he changed into something tempting and seductive. After that, he went to the studio and walked in. He didn't know if he was going to be nude or not, but he certainly wouldn't argue if that was what Nathaniel wanted. At the very least, he'd look good either way.OoC: --

			            Nathaniel raised an eyebrow at the sexy outfit Mitsu was wearing when he came into the studio.  "Delicious!" he murmured.  "Now go behind the screen if you wish to remove that alluring outfit. There's a length of dark blue silk to cover yourself for modesty. Though, you don't strike me as the modest sort! I've put an image up on my laptop to show you what I'm thinking of, it's a statue rather than a painting but it will give you the idea." statue

Going behind the screen to undress and use the cloth to cover himself with. He peeked at the screen very briefly before going to his perch. He was careful with his posing, and then smiled at Nathaniel with an alluring grin. "Feel free to adjust me however you'd like~."OoC: --

			            Nathaniel gave a slow, soft, seductive smile. He went over to where Mitsu had draped himself on the chaise lounge. He leaned down and gave him a brief kiss on the lips.  "Move this arm a little further over....tilt your head slightly more to this side....this foot here..." He moved Mitsu to how he wanted him for the painting, taking his time and gently brushing against him.  "There. You're perfect." he declared when he was done. He draped the blue silk over where necessary for subtlety.  Then he set about working on his canvas.

			             ❤ M I T S U K I N I ❤ S A G E ❤What do you think of me now? Mitsu blushed heavily when he was kissed, and even more when he was adjusted. What was it about Nathaniel that made him react this way? Being kissed and touched never bothered him before. Was it because he knew Nathaniel fancied him? Mitsu laid on the lounge as he had been posed, still blushing softly as he thought. Eventually, a break came and he sat up slowly. He glanced at Nathaniel a bit. "...Why do you fancy me? It's not like I'm anything special, you know."OoC: --

			            Nathaniel paused in his work to let Mitsu have a break. He rinsed out his brushes in the sink and dried his hands. He looked at the other when he asked him a very difficult question to answer.  "You're very beautiful," he told him.  "But...I don't know. It's so much more than just that. It's something I do not really understand myself. You're like a magnet. You are tempestuous, opinionated, stubborn, cute, adorable, caring, and somehow...haunted. I don't know how to describe it. But I find it endearing and alluring at the same time.You are like no one I have ever met."

			             ❤ M I T S U K I N I ❤ S A G E ❤What do you think of me now? Mitsu listened to Nathaniel. Haunted....That was a good word. Still, the kitsune knew very little about him. "You know....I'm flattered you're interested, but I just...." Mitsu shook his head. He'd could at least take advantage of Nathaniel's affection. Just a little bit. "Never mind. It's not important."OoC: --

			            Nathaniel frowned very slightly. He went and sat on the edge of the chaise.  "You thought it. You started to say it. So, it must be important to you," he replied.  "If it's important to you, then I should like to hear what you have to say. I am a very good listener, apparently, so I have been told anyway."

			            Nathaniel looked pensive and sighed. He stroked Mitsu's cheek with his thumb briefly.  "Oh, Mitsu..." he said in his soft voice.  "Whatever you have done or whatever has been done to you, it's in the past. There is nothing you can tell me, nothing I can discover, that would make me feel any differently toward you. Certainly not in a negative way, anyhow.  Whatever ghosts you are battling with, I wish I knew how to help you dispel them. We are new to one another but I so dearly wish you were willing to get to know me and allow me to get to know you. I would never hurt you."

How could he so easily say he would never hurt Mitsu? Promises like that didn't do anything for the warlock. People always hurt the ones they cared about, whether intentionally or accidentally. "There's nothing to learn. I'm a slutty mama's boy who adores his familiars as his own children, and is constantly ridiculed by his brother and father. That's...all there is."OoC: --

			            Nathaniel shook his head.  "I'm not a fool. I may be shallow and vain and have more money than sense but I am not a fool. Those are words spoken from a deep self-loathing caused by the terrible pain of some past trauma. I won't ask what it is that has made you like this, I know you don't know me or trust me well enough to speak to me of such things, but remember that no one sees us as we see ourselves. We are always too critical, we only see the faults and not the inner gems that to others make us shine. As for your brother and father, they are imbeciles if they don't see your worth and only deepen your pain. You were offered one million dollars to spend a week with me. Anyone else would have said yes instantly and taken all of that for themselves easily and happily. Some would have replied that they would do it more two. But you, you considered it deeply first, you said it was too much, and you have asked for half to go to a trauma centre. Now that actually tells me a great deal about you, and what I know I like very much. Now walk about a bit, stretch your limbs, have a drink of water and then we shall get on with the painting."

			             ❤ M I T S U K I N I ❤ S A G E ❤What do you think of me now? Mitsu listened to Nathaniel's long and admittedly touching lecture. He stood after he spoke. "Don't insult my family, even if they are jerks. It's not like I haven't done anything to deserve it." Mitsu demand changed so he wasn't wearing a silk cloth as cover before leaving the studio to go call his mom. He could use someone to talk to and get advise from. And, his mother was the only person he could talk to. Mitsu spent the break talking to her, but she didn't really help with the Nathaniel thing. She encouraged Mitsu to think about it, at least, but didn't know if she wanted Mitsu to grow up so soon. He eventually realized I had been fifteen minutes and he rushed back to the studio. I always lose track of time when I'm talking to Mom. Damn it. Mitsu went and change back to the cloth - toga? - and returned to his pose. "Sorry...."OoC: --

			            Nathaniel could not think of anything in the world Mitsu might have done to make his father and brother treat him so. As far as he was concerned, you loved, protected and treated with respect a child or sibling no matter what, unconditionally.  Whilst Mitsu went to speak to his mother, Nathaniel went and asked Elizabeth for two glasses of iced tea then reorganised his colour palate for the next painting session. Mitsu came hurrying back in and apologised.  "It's fine, don't worry so" he told the other with a warm smile.  "Just take the same position and I'll carry on for another fifteen minutes or so then we can have another break. I got us some iced tea, by the way.  Let me help you with the silk. I want the drop of the cloth just right." ((It wasn't a toga or anything he could change into, it was just a long length of silk cloth to drape over him. How are you today?))
