“…”
He places a bento on the counter as the artist walks in.
“Akira asked me to give you this. Said it’s a packed lunch since you don’t fucking eat.” He polishes a mug and just watches the teen ponderously. “…Look. I know you probably don’t have much as far as money goes. So here’s the deal. You help me with the dishes sometime and I’ll let you eat here for free. Sound good?”
"I... eat..." he defended himself with absolutely no bite to it. He ate bean sprouts. That hardly counted as food, really.
Yusuke smelled the air and his stomach immediately started growling. He was so distracted he almost didn't catch Sojiro's offer.
He snapped to look at him. "Truly!? Oh, I couldn't! You're... really too kind, Boss..."

"Ah, that's true - or 'cause they're really angry maybe or just are afraid of what happens next..." He was so used to horror movies portraying them as angry or seeking vengeance it was easy to forget. "Man, who really knew what the Shadows were...? Thinking of 'em makes my skin crawl,"
"Heh, well that's what I've got you for, yeah...? You always put the brakes on me when I need it," He reaches for his boyfriend's hand, tenderly interlacing their fingers together. "That means a lot to me, man - you're a pretty resilient guy, yourself - I mean you've seen your share of your shit yet you still stay strong and true to yourself. How could I not fall in love with that...? You're authentic to the core,"
"And yet you still call me 'man' and 'dude'." Yusuke chuckled. He was only teasing him, of course. "I survived so I might one day see true beauty- Like Van Gogh saw the night sky in the depths of his despair. Now I've seen so much, and there's still so much to see! All with you by my side."
"What's the issue with friendship chocolate...?" Says the person in the group who gets more chocolate than anyone else.
"Good, 'cause that's all I want - is to stay by your side,"
"So, we had it all wrong, huh...? Not really ghosts that haunt a painting but the regrets and feelings of the one who painted it," There was something tragically poetic about that - yet it still sounded much better than ghosts.
"Heh..." His eyes glisten as he nuzzles his head into his boyfriend's shoulder, clearly touched at Yusuke's heartfelt words. "That means the world, man - thanks - thanks for believing in me when I can't even believe in myself, sometimes..."
"Don't ghosts persist because they have regrets? Not that I would know anything about it. I barely understood the shadows in the metaverse..."
"Of course! It's not like you let that hold you back- even if, I suppose, there may be times where you maybe should... Your passion and resilience have saved me many times. I admire you for it. It's one of the reasons I fell in love with you."
"I know - I'm still figuring out my dreams so in the meantime, can't I help you make yours come true? Maybe I'll find my own along the way,"
"That's fair - I mean even if those pieces are done - the feelings still remain and in a way, it's like those feelings are still with pieces, yeah...?" He wasn't artist so he didn't quite know how to articulate but if Yusuke painted something that made him angry, would those feelings of anger still linger within the finished work...? "I try my best, yeah - sometimes I still have feelings of frustration when I run 'cause it's tough, I know I could be better..." He pauses, fingers tugging at his hair. "...I was better - but I can't get hung up on that. I just...have to try and keep going and be okay with the me that I am today..."
"I suppose that's fine. I certainly won't complain about it."
"Perhaps that is what people mean when they say a painting is haunted..." If that were the case, all of the paintings that Madarame stole were haunted for sure.
"Ryuji- Even if there are limitations... or you have to find a different way... You'll find a way to run that makes you happy. I'm sure of it."
"Well, maybe I could go with you...!" Playfully he wraps his arms around his boyfriend, hugging Yusuke closely from behind. "I don't want to be apart from you - wherever you go to paint, I'll follow you! I'll do all the modeling and poses for you that you want, I'll even carry your paint buckets...! Just anything to be with you - 'cause you make me happy too," Yusuke really really did make him happy - happier than he ever thought possible.
"You were just finding yourself, there's nothing wrong with that," He presses a loving kiss to the side of his boyfriend's head. "Some people say art can be like an outlet, yeah? A way to let out feelings you've been holding in - and maybe if you're not proud of those pieces now, was the process of painting 'em at least able to help you deal with your anger and fear? Like...make you feel more at peace, maybe? You deserve to be at peace - after...everything that happened,"
"Ryujiii..." He frowned. "You can follow me wherever if that is what you desire, but I want to support your dreams, too."
"It's not that I dislike those pieces, but the memories they leave me with. I suppose it did feel nice to put the feelings on canvas. Do you feel that way if you run? Maybe... some days you're not as fast as you wish to be, but you still enjoy the feeling?"
Hugging Yusuke close to his chest, he presses a tender kiss to the top of his boyfriend's head. "I love you too - I love you so much and I'm so glad you're my boyfriend," Truly, he meant every word - he didn't care if it sounded sappy or silly, it was how he felt in his heart. "Stay by my side, okay? I'll stay by yours too - always,"
"There are times where we must be apart... but even in those times, you'll be in my... heart!" Yusuke laughed. "What do you know? Perhaps poetry is not beyond me. I will stick to painting regardless. Paint how beautiful you are, paint how happy you make me..."
He sighed. "All my works before I met you are so ugly to me now. I may have been a good artist, but not a great one. I wasn't painting from the heart. Well... That is, my most acclaimed pieces were the ones I created through anger and fear."
"These horse demons you are sketching have very defined muscles..." she's not judging. Well, perhaps judging a little. Haru is simply concerned.
"Thank you!" He beamed. "They are quite strange, aren't they? It can be difficult to get close enough to them in order to have a good reference. I had Joker summon one for me. Getting it to sit still was another ordeal entirely." Yusuke sighed. "Really, there's only so much I can achieve from the back of the Monabus... I'm grateful our leader was so amenable to my request!"
"No, this is just me being completely honest with you - you're an amazing guy and I'll spend every day reminding you of that," He grins, both hands gripping his boyfriend's face. "But for now, I'll accept your surrender!" He winks.
Yusuke could do nothing but stare at Ryuji's adorable expression and grumble quietly. He gave him a kiss and a hug. "I love you so much...!" Words could be difficult in these situations, but that simple phrase should be enough, right?
