No blind spots.

Yukimura thinks ruefully of that motto at Flayn's question. It was an absolute lie. He had plenty of them. What he struggled with was being comfortable enough to let others see that. That said, modesty was still the proper answer.

"There are plenty of things I'm not good at," he said, without naming anything specific. In particular, he saw a few things when he looked at her where he definitely paled in comparison. "Tennis is just the one thing I refuse to let be among them."

Reaching across the table for his pad, he pulled it over and flipped back through the last few pages. A couple of the pages were quick sketches and montages of photo clippings-- possibly ideas for future works-- and then there was a landscape of a flower garden overlooking the ocean that looked finished. Pink and purple flowers sprinkled the grassy area in the foreground. A dirt path cut through the garden to a white chair with a view of the water in the background. The opposite page held a photo cutout of the same image.

"This is my most recent one. I most enjoy landscapes of nature, especially water and flowers. I take a lot of inspiration from the French impressionist movement. Renoir and Monet are among my favorite artists."
