Honami
(I became a little worried after I'd heard about what I'll be doing during my shadowing... But I'm so glad that Shinonome agreed to help me...)
Honami
(I'm sure I'll do just fine as long as learn to draw something...or anything that's recognizable...)
Honami
Also, we haven't decided on where to meet... Where's a good place for someone to teach me how to draw...?

Honami
Wow, Emu, you draw so well!
Your drawing's so adorable too! I'm sure children would love it...!

Emu
I was actually a little worried about that since it's gonna be my first time teaching someone.
Emu
One of us can play the teacher and the other can be a kindergartner! That should make it easier for us to practice teaching someone else how to draw, right?

Honami
Yes, so... No matter how hard I try, I struggle to draw what I actually want... I've even been laughed at a few times as a result.
Honami
Which is why I became worried after we were told that we'd be teaching kindergartners how to paint.
Honami
I'm so sorry, Emu. It's not that I don't want to show you what my art entails, but I'm very shy about drawing when others are around...
Honami
Fortunately, someone who does have some artistic skills has agreed to teach me how to become better, so I'm going to do my best to improve.
Honami
This weekend... But we haven't decided where to actually meet yet. Unfortunately, we can't use my room because it's undergoing construction for the air conditioning...
Honami
And I feel bad about asking to go over to their house, so I was looking for somewhere good for us to meet.
Emu
Yeah! I want to practice drawing too, and I'd really like it if we could do it together!
Honami
I'm okay with that, so I'll ask my teacher... I'll be sure to ask Shinonome about this.

Ena
Based on the map Mochizuki sent me, Otori lives somewhere around here... But I'm not seeing anything that resembles a house...

Ena
You're the one who's been standing outside the door to that art class, right? I just happened to see you the other day.
Ena
(She had such a worried expression on her face that time, but I guess that feeling's genuine...)
Honami
Oh, right... My name is Honami Mochizuki. I'm hoping to learn a lot from you today...
Ena
More importantly, where is this Otori person's house? I've been looking for ages but just can't seem to find it.
Ena
What...? This looks like the grounds of an art museum. I mean, look at this giant gate and fancy fence...
Ena
You've gotta be kidding me...!
People who live in these kinds of palaces actually exist...?!

Ena
Hold on. Well-off is putting it too lightly. I mean, if she lives in a house like this, she must be the heiress to a big corporation or something...
Ena
No, that can't be.
There's no way she's related to the people who own and operate PXL...
There's no way she's related to the people who own and operate PXL...
Honami
Um... I believe she belongs to that very family. I'm just as startled since this is also my first time actually seeing where she lives...
Honami
Yes... I apologize for not mentioning it sooner... I was just so preoccupied with trying to become better at drawing...
Ena
N-No, that's totally fine. There was no reason for you to tell me. I'm just a bit surprised too...

Ena
How many houses have a living room with a view of a gigantic garden...? This place feels more like a five-star hotel...
Ena
Wait, that painting on the wall...
Isn't it Remidle's “Parade”?!
Don't tell me it's the original...!

I'm Emu Otori! It's super nice to meet you! I'm really looking forward to today's lesson☆

Ena
Does that mean you're the junior she's been talking about? The one who performs in shows at PXL?
Ena
(She seems to have a few screws loose...
Is that specifically because she's an heiress...?)

Feel free to relax and enjoy yourselves. I'll bring some snacks for you all later.
