They're also tricky creatures, too. You are pretty clever in your own right, however.
[ Mischievous, one that would lure humans for fun. While he can't see Yusuke like that, he does think there's something tricky about him. For... Obvious reasons. ]
What was theirs?
[ There are... so many masks. To be honest, they're a group of weirdos out of context, but he's assuming that maybe the person accompanying Yusuke was Haru? ]
ahahahaha omg dude dude ok so i was on ebay trying 2 find some mags that u cant get stateside right and u wont believe what came up in my search instead
[ There's a link to eBay embedded in the message. To a doujinshi that probably looks very familiar. ]
I told you. I've never really had the chance to speak with a purveyor of the painted arts. While I consider myself an adept student of the written word, there is something quite interesting about one who can look past that and see more than the eyes of a mere man.
Perhaps, it was wrong to start with such a crude examination. But it was with great sincerity that I entreated you.
If you are aware of the importance of the written word you should also be aware of the history behind what you write by extension. In which case, you should automatically know to apply it to other forms of art you choose to study or show interest in.

I am a journalist, not the writer that creates worlds out of his own head. I may spin tales, and weave a compelling narrative. But the words and the thoughts are not wholly mine.
I hope that will disabuse you of the notion that my interest in your opinions is insincere. I am, simply, nothing if I do not have a foil to react to.
From the loss of the original image, faded as it was? Art is... individual. It means something unique to each person who views it. What I feel was lost may not be what the woman who repainted it felt was lost.
I feel that her intentions were good, and honest. However perhaps to the people who viewed Ecce Homo each time they visited the church, it would be the equivalent of allowing somebody to storm the Louvre and repaint the Mona Lisa because they felt her enigmatic smile needed restoration.
Hmm. I am not so sure. I like to think I am knowledgeable able artwork and art forms though.
[Well, unbeknown to him he was a Phantom Thief so there must've been something tricky there.]
It was a simple mask. [He's thinking back to it...] Almost like a masquerade mask - one that predominantly covers just the eyes as opposed to the whole face? White with an angular black design around the eyes.
[Simple, yet elegant. Now he thought about it, it had been a nice mask.]
