    Summary

    Rafayel's confession that once he believed only pain could bring him inspiration is still fresh.

    You don't have enough artistic sense to apply "Why are the curtains blue?" philosophy to his art and figure him out in places where you're still not allowed in; but the color alone in his newer pieces jumping out as if to sing out celebrations of hope can't be your wishful thinking, either. In any case, it's, at the very least, reassuring to be able to assume he's happy enough that it shows through his work.

    On the other hand, a devoted collector and admirer of Rafayel finds your existence to be the blight on his work, and is determined to get the artist back on track.

    ***

    Or: in which rafayel gets a stalker, and doesn't take it seriously until it endangers you.
