I assume you know of a good time to do this?
I have not discussed holiday plans with Elliot as of right now, so can't advise on the best time to sneak into his room when he is not in classes.

[oh this asshole got the sarcasm. He's just an asshole.]
alrighty
[And sending it over! It's... it's a comic, of all things? Huh. And the star of the show is a little egg named Jimmy (you can tell because the word JIMMY is written over him in big orange letters) with a faint crack down the top of its head. Rest assured, Sanji's drawing skills are as poor as he warned: the egg's shape is more a wobble, and though Sanji cared enough to put in facial expressions, it's... it's stick-figure levels of shameful.
But anyway, the comic! It's made of six panels.
Panel one: Jimmy is alone, looking around, a squiggly hand covering his mouth. There's some grass and shit around him, or... something. The fuck is that background?
Panel two: Jimmy is walking through the not!grass. Two squiggly hands on his mouth now! He looks worried? Or he's trying his best to have any sort of expression.
Panel three: Jimmy starts crying. Huge crocodile tears arching in the air from his eyes. Sanji's given up on the backgrounds.
Panel four: Oh no, there are other eggs around! Three huge eggs with muscles and aggressively drawn eyebrows. They crowd around Jimmy, who is still crying,
Panel five: It's... all black. Sanji took a crayon and went to town. Gold star for atmosphere (?)
Panel six: Oh look, Jimmy is back! \8D/ Looking so proud of himself as he stands on the cracked, broken bodies of his enemies, yolk and bits of egg floating around like the grim reminders of human fragility. Hands in the air, Jimmy, you're a super star!
THE END.]

[ ok deep breath ]
You got lazy midway through.
If you are going to commit to a piece of art, you must give it one hundred per cent of your effort and devotion and try to produce something that you truly say you've put all your energy and passion into. Something that reflects you, and that you are proud of.
What is the point, otherwise?

i drew a comic about an unstable egg named Jimmy that murders bullies
really feeling like laziness was the basis for most of this shit
[A pause in texting on his end, and then a few moments later:]
oh wait u mean the background?
that shit was hard
and the grass was too time consuming and took away from the focus of the piece

okay, that sounds simple enough.
Is he staying with his family for a few days, or just visiting them for the day?
I wouldn't have a clue how to unhinge a door, so if that could be avoided I would appreciate it.

Why bother at all, in that case?
The background is just as important as the foreground and focal characters for building atmosphere and this is especially so if you are telling a story.
This would perhaps work as a sketch plan, or a first draft, but would require more time and fleshing out to be a final piece.

u insisted i give drawing a chance to sooth my cruel, animalistic tendencies, so i did
and killed a bunch of eggs
ngl it was pretty cathartic
maybe i should have lil Jimmy travel the world in search of his long lost sister, leaving a trail of wanton destruction in his wake

At least you were able to experience some of the positive effects art can have on you.
And perhaps you should - the more you draw a character or concept, the easier and more natural it becomes. Give it time and you may even be able to work on backgrounds and smaller details not just... the egg.

u don't do this shit by halves, do u
and hey now! i'm keeping the egg, it's a decent metaphor for the fragility of human life and Jimmy's unstable psyche, emphasized by that crack on his head
the audience'll go in with the assumption he's the weakest based on his size and appearance, only to have that assumption subverted when he keeps winning, and the cut to black puts the control in their imagination to figure out how Jimmy wins his fights

Of course not. I love art, and enjoy seeing other people enjoy and experience it too.
... I never said you shouldn't, but perhaps you can expand on his plight more with some background details and events.

nah i mean i got that, but it's weird u even took my drawing seriously
expected u to ignore it
[Says the dumbass who actually put thought into his hideous creation. Sanji played himself]
that's why i thought maybe he should travel, y'know? different scenery and shit

You took the time to draw it. I'm hardly going to dissuade you from a potential interest in the arts by ignoring your first forays into it. That's only good for crushing interest before it can even take root.
[ Well at least he's invested in his little egg buddy now. ]
True. City scapes, country side and beach backgrounds are all varied and interesting to draw.

... yes please bring the kit, why would I have a spare key to Elliot's personal space?
[ he caNNOT... he must... nurture artistic interest.
be strong yusuke, be strong for art. ]
Within reason. The blanket ban on lewd, crude humour remains in place.

well yes but
what if our landlord can't make it out that day
and Elliot returns home to a doorless room.

Oh? How would you go about it, without breaking the door in the process?
