And so the stakes are raised....

[ACTION]

[Some time after a certain thread, pictures of a certain purple haired SeeD start showing up all over Garden. They're in a myriad of different poses, but the style is all the same and it's obvious someone's put far, far too much time into this little prank.]

[Feel free to catch her in the act of hanging one of these glorious pieces of art?]

[BBS]

[Later, on the message board, there's this simple message.]

Who's taking it too seriously now, hmm?

[Rinoa, you are beyond ridiculous sometimes.]

[Headtilt. Is she doing what he thinks she's doing...? And if so, just why is she going to all this trouble?]

Hey. Is that Gakupo...?

[rebellingheart]

Of course it's Gakupo! It looks just like him!

[Okay maybe not, but she'd tried.]

[werepanther]

I get that. [He taps one hand at the drawing.] Which then makes me wanna ask, why are you taping his portrait around the entire place? Did he cause mass destruction while I was asleep?

[rebellingheart]

I made fun of those wanted posters he had around the school, right? When I said that I knew I drew bad, and that's why I didn't draw or let people see when I did? He said it was because I wasn't as brave as him!

[So her response was to plaster Garden with badly drawn pictures of Gakupo looking silly.]

[werepanther]

[He chuckles softly.] You know, you didn't have to prove him wrong like this. It's not like your drawings are terrible.

[rebellingheart]

[Rinoa gives him a look before sticking her tongue out at him.]

They're awful and look like a little kid drew them, Tom. I know it, and it's okay.

[werepanther]

Fiiiine. If you're at peace with it, then I guess I can be too. [He wrinkles his nose at her in return.]

[rebellingheart]

There are enough things I'm good at, that it's not so bad admitting the things I'm awful at.

[They are such dorky friends. And such a cute ship, I can't even...]

[werepanther]

Or you're just self-assured enough that you don't need to praise yourself 24/7. It's refreshing, regardless.

[Clearly Tomnoa is endgame somewhere that isn't WR. He laughs, taking one poster and pocketing it. It's a souvenir!]

[rebellingheart]

Isn't that pretty much the same thing? [She simply smiles and then laughs as he pockets a poster.] A souvenir?

[Maybe she'll draw Sharpay for him sometime, that's bound to be a laugh.]

[werepanther]

Of course. When the Disciplinary kids come running around and tear 'em down like we know they will, I want to say I was around to see these masterpieces.

[Um yes please, a drawing of Sharpay would be fantastic.]

[rebellingheart]

You know... I hadn't even thought about that.

[Ask nicely and she just might consider it.]

[werepanther]

You're kidding, right? Razem's pretty vicious when he wants to be. [Tom would know; he's got scars from when he had to break up Razem & Wayne way back in the day.]
