“Great!” he exclaims after he received a nod and a confirmation that the younger ones were willing to follow him on his little adventure around the city, even though he had yet to tell them what he had planned to do once outside. “Let’s put our coats on and go then. By the way, Yongnam? I think you should bring your sketchbook with you.” The way he says it makes it sound like he knows a secret the other two don’t, and maybe that’s the truth, but he also doesn’t know if Yongnam usually carries his sketchbook with him wherever he goes, and he thinks it might come in handy for what he has in mind so, better be safe than sorry by suggesting he brings it.
He leaves the living room first, letting the boys gather whatever they want to bring with them, and he head for the entrance of their apartment where he grabs his coat and puts it on, making sure to wrap a scarf around his neck. He checks his pockets to make sure he has his wallet, his keys, and then he picks his camera back from where he had set it down while he bundled up. It didn’t take too much time, for the boys to join him and once everyone was ready to go, they did just that. “I don’t know if you guys had the chance to see it yet or not, but a Christmas tree was installed in the middle of one of the plaza and there’s a shopping street that’s been decorated with lights, like, they are hanging above the shoppers’ heads as they walk. It’s really beautiful. I thought it might be nice to go have a look?”
He wouldn’t admit it out loud, but a part of him was a bit worried that perhaps his plans were not going to be exciting enough for the other two. “So, Yongnam, have you been drawing for a long time?” It’s small talk, he knows, but he’s also genuinely interested.
the request is a curious one. he had been expecting food. or a walk to a fun building of some sort. maybe exercise. well anything that is considered in the regular scope of leisure. but yongnam has been asked to bring his sketchbook and by extension he also knows this must mean his pencil case too. but he doesn't know why and it becomes a bit apparent by how his head tilts just a bit in confusion. or a lot actually, eyes blinking rapidly as he tries to figure out what jungjin is suggesting.
he can't figure it out, but he does trust the older male. so as quick as his head had done its incredible tilt, it also snaps right back up and yongnam gives one big nod. "okay i can do that... i will do that!" maybe he didn't need to be so determined sounding, but yongnam felt like that would help drive in some assurance. for himself and for everyone around him. with that settled, he's going to get ready as he can. especially since he knows how speedy the others can be.
still, very curious but also probably a lot calmer than the earlier surprise had made him, yongnam hobbles over to where jungjin is waiting. he's just a bit, tiny bit, relieved when the older male finally explains what he had in mind. just a bit relieved because that apprehension that he had at that moment quickly turns itself into a different sort of rapid heartbeat. excitement. yongnam was super excited now that he knew why jungjin had asked him to bring his notebook. he could sketch the plaza.
it would be beautiful. very beautiful and once he's done he would definitely show everyone around him and thank the other. but for now, they would have to reach the destination first so yongnam just once again nods. that is until he is spoken to. he looks up at jungjin
"...not that long. i started," probably after his mother died. now that wouldn't be something he should be saying out loud though. "in high school. i wanted to start earlier but i didn't have the right stuff to do it." that sounded like a good answer, yongnam could blame it on how expensive the utensils were. "what about...your photography?"
