How grossly unprofessional. Another reason he won't get very far. [Artemis frowns. While yes, he hasn't really felt a physical attraction to anyone he's painted before, he likes to think that in a professional setting he would be working and nothing past that. Besides, a confident body could shrink inwards when made uncomfortable. No wonder Artemis had never thought the model was Rikku--Apollo looked strangely plastic to him, and his 'boyfriend' even moreso. 'Artistic decision' his arse.]

[His frown softens a little under Rikku's lips, and Artemis actually seems prepared for this one and meets it.] After we fix the heating I'll let you torture me. [He smiles.]
