I've been researching artists from the 1960s with styles that would fit Knightsbridge Hollow, and Rene Gruau immediately stood out with his use of line weight and negative space--so I had to redraw a few of his pieces with Muriel and Traxton as the subjects to see how they'd look :)

first brush with fame - (TsuzuKazu)
It only takes Kazunari a few seconds to figure out how to set up the livestream, but as he double checks the settings, his heart skips a beat. This is so exciting! His fellow company members get to do what they love in front of their fans, and they’ll even get paid for it.
Sitting in on this first session is Kazunari himself, and Tsuzuru.
The reason being is that when Kazu was getting ready, Tsuzuru was the only one nearby who wasn’t busy (and can also be easily persuaded.)
Now, what to call this very first livestream...?
In a flash of inspiration, Kazunari types up a title.
Mankai's First Time All Male Super Hot Sexy Livestream !! 😘🔥
“There we go!” Kazunari cheers and takes a seat, checking out the different features of the stream while Tsuzuru withers beside him.
“Why did you call it that?" He asks weakly, already having doubts about letting Kazunari be in charge of this project. "It doesn't sound very professional... don't we want people to take us seriously?"
"It's clickbait! Just put in a bunch of keywords that'll make people wanna watch. It works every time." Kazunari smirks, the picture of confidence. He feels completely in his element. "See? It's already working!"
Tsuzuru bolts upright in his chair. "W-wait, it's live right now?” He asks nervously, his voice distinctly higher than normal.
"Sure is," Kazu replied, waving to the camera. "Look, people are starting to join!"
Sure enough the viewer count steadily goes upward, first two, and then five, and now it's at twelve.
"Alright!" Kazunari claps his hands. "We should introduce ourselves. My name is Kazunari Miyoshi, find me on InstaBlam." He winks and makes double finger guns at the camera. "You might also know me from my roles in Mankai's Summer Troupe plays."
He beams, watching as a comment appears, full of hearts, and then another one. They're at twenty viewers now. He nudges Tsuzuru, encouraging him to speak.
"H-hello!" Tsuzuru bows his head, a blush starting to dust his cheeks at the idea of being under scrutiny. "My name is Tsuzuru Minagi. I'm a member of the Spring Troupe, and the Mankai Company's amateur playwright."
Kazunari slings an arm around his friend's shoulders, much to Tsuzuru's annoyance. "Amateur? Don't be modest. This guy's a pro." Kazunari tells the camera, poking Tsuzuru's cheek before being batted away.
Kazu laughs, checking the status of the stream before continuing.
they seem cute lol
do you think they're close
I bet blondie is the top
Huh? He shrugs off the last comment and puts on a smile. Gotta focus on being entertaining.
"Okay, so now that we've made ourselves known. The rest is up to you guys! What do you want to know about us? Do you have any requests?"
Tsuzuru gives a start at this. "You mean you don't have anything planned?" He hisses, his cheeks really starting to flame now.
"That's the whole point of a livestream!" He grins in reply. "Anything can happen."
Kazunari turns his attention to the comments as more of them begin to roll in. Fifty viewers now.
He skims the first few question, skipping over a couple that seem a little weird.
"Do we like each other? Yeah, of course we do!" He says proudly. "Tsuzuroon and I go way back."
Tsuzuru makes a noise of protest. "Just because we've known each other a long time, that doesn't necessarily mean-"
But Kazunari interrupts him, pointing at the screen. "Oh my god, 'take off your shirt'?" he laughs and wiggles his eyebrows directly at the camera, giving it his most heart-stopping smoulder. "Such naughty fans... but I assure you, you would not be disappointed."
Tsuzuru roughly pulls Kazu back down into his seat. "What are you doing?! That's definitely not professional!"
"Fanservice, Tsuzuroon~" Kazunari laughs under his breath, thoroughly enjoying the opportunity to tease their fans. "Remember, we're supposed to be taking requests."
"Yeah, but that's a little too far, don't you think?" Tsuzuru pinches the bridge of his nose, already developing a headache from Kazu's antics.
"Come on, it's just a little teasing. No harm in that." Kazunari pouts. He grabs Tsuzuru by the shoulders, trying to convince him. "Don't be such a stick in the mud, bro. You don't want to end up all old and grumpy like Frooch, do you?"
This does grab Tsuzuru's attention. He looks like he wants to refute the point, but decides not to argue. "... No." He says with a sigh of resignation.
"That's the spirit! You just gotta lighten up a little," Kazunari ruffles his friend's hair and is quickly swatted away. He returns his attention to the screen.
Holy- 300 viewers?!
"When did that happen?" He mutters to himself, skimming through more comments.
did you see the way he HELD him??? so tender... ♡
omfg i ship it already 😍
what's their couple name?? sksksksks
Oh. The gears in Kazu's mind start turning. The flurry of activity and new viewers was sparked by... him giving Tsuzuru a pep talk?
More specifically that he held Tsuzuru for a moment.
Now, Kazunari may be dumb, but he isn't stupid. Even though it wasn't like that between them... maybe they could give a little more of that type of fanservice.
After all, he and Tsuzuru are close. They've shared a room before. They've seen each other in their underwear at various times during their high school and college years.
It wouldn't be weird, right?
His eyes catch on a comment.
he looked so cute when you touched him kazunari... do it again pls? ♡♡♡
Touch him? Well, that's easy enough. They didn't say he had to touch somewhere too personal.
A smile grows on Kazunari's face and he gives Tsuzuru a sidelong glance. "Follow my lead, Tsuzuroon?"
Tsuzuru, who is still trying to wrap his head around the fact that Kazunari might view him as a Sakyo-in-progress, brings himself out of his musings and finds these new words from Kazu to be just as confusing.
"What do you mean?"
"Fanservice," Kazunari replies, leaning closer to Tsuzuru.
Tsuzuru instinctively leans backward, gripping the arms of his chair. He doesn't trust the look in Kazu's eyes. "W-what do you mean?"
Kazunari makes a tutting noise. "They want to see how close we are, Tsuzuroon," he chuckles.
Before Tsuzuru can think, warm hands are cupping his face. He never thought of Kazunari as gentle, but that's exactly how the artist's fingers feel against his cheeks. Gentle, careful, practiced. As if Tsuzuru's face was just another of his painting projects, all fine brushstrokes and delicate linework.
Then the color must be in Tsuzuru himself, appearing on the canvas as Kazunari's thumbs brush against his cheekbones. Bursts of pink beneath his cheeks, racing red inside his chest, a curious purple filling the back of his mind, and many, many warm yellows, dancing through his body, reaching the tips of his fingers.
Kazunari's smile turns into a beaming one, and with a wink, he pulls away from Tsuzuru, severing the connection.
"See, that wasn't so bad," he whispers, then turns his attention back to the stream.
They gained another 500 viewers! And ten subscribers already? Wow...
While Kazunari is fixated on numbers, Tsuzuru is trying to remember every detail of what just happened, searing it into his memory in case it never happens again.
But why does he want to remember it that badly? Wasn't it embarrassing? Hundreds of people just saw Kazunari hold his face, and yet the shame he expects to feel just... isn't there.
It felt... nice. To be held. By him.
Tsuzuru brushes his cheek absentmindedly, watching while Kazunari entertains the viewers with one of his many overused anecdotes. His eyes light up as he describes the memory, and Tsuzuru feels a funny tug in his chest.
Maybe Azuma was onto something with this whole fanservice thing.
