It wasn't long after he determined he'd try alone though, that he was hearing his name from a very excited Ash. Which given it was often she seemed that euphoric, instantly there was a smile from him. And an even BIGGER one when she was actually volunteering to see if he wanted a partner. Which he did pause and look at her first for a moment, "I would LOVE to but... are you sure you want to? I'm still not great at drawing if you need help with that part." Though he would certainly try if she wanted him too!

He pushed his doodles aside for a minute, having found at least one he kind of liked the look of. Maybe he could do that with a book like the one he'd found he liked the looks of. Though it certainly wouldn't look as cool without the watercolor on it. Which.... wait. "Do you think if we use a medium different than markers the charm would still work?" Like if he did paint on his arm??
