[ someone puts their phone up on a chair so a small fire can be seen on the ground. the sun's going down and it's obvious this is being recorded in someone's back yard. it's kind of comforting to just watch it and watch the flames moves across the tree branches and scattered pieces of wood. it's quiet for a bit...
then there's this feeling... this feeling that someone was recording this on purpose, not just to share their summer night fire that they just created. that became a little more obvious when...there was a ripping sound coming from the side. several rips. like it was paper.
the papers go flying onto the fire, burning and crackling when they hit it. after a few more pages get thrown onto the fire, a whole sketchbook gets thrown onto the fire.
Nozaki comes into view as he goes to sit on the opposite side of the fire. he's looking rough... to say the least. is he sick? he looks sick. maybe he needs a haircut too. he's hid himself away from everyone for a little bit to try to finally break down. but it looks like he's having his break down right now. unfortunately, his sketchbook is too thick for that fire. it burns the inside pages but the fire goes out quickly...
he looks up at the camera, not pleased about what just happened. really? is this his life? why?! he puts his face in his hands, unsure of what to do anymore... ]

Oh, right... Um. I am Umetarou Nozaki, mangaka of Let's Fall in Love which was published in Monthly Shoujo Romance and mangaka for Closest Love to Heaven. It hasn't been published in a magazine... I tend to make the latter by hand and sell them to book stores.

So you are an artist. I would like to see some of your artwork sometime. I'm an artist too! I have been called a prodigy for the beautiful masterpieces I can produce in a few seconds. [without waiting for nozaki to reply, he brandishes this, smiling broadly.]
This is me with my best friend, Ciel!

[ there's an awkward silence. a long silence. he's studying it though his face is blank ]
...What does that say at the bottom?

[he blinks, then catches himself.]
Sometimes I forget that not everyone is as fortunate as I, and didn't have an advanced education. Forgive me.

Silly me? [ he squints ]
...I don't see it.
