There's no art here.

[Equius sounds disgruntled and put upon, and he's scowling crabbily.]

I've lived here for almost a full sweep, and I haven't been able to find a single art gallery or museum here with anything interesting! Isn't there anyone here who knows anything about art? Or has some from their home world?

[ Gripping some papers against her chest, she lingers at the threshold. ]

Hi Equius! Long time no glub. Can I come in and show you my art?

[stayb100ponyboy]

Yes, please do.

[He holds the door open for her and gestures inside the hive.]

I'm looking forward to it.

[fintastic]

[ Stepping inside cautiously, Feferi looks around. This is so...

...

...

Exciting! ]

Where? Can we sit down?

[stayb100ponyboy]

This way.

[Equius leads her into the living room and gestures towards the couch.]

Have a seat. You can put them on the coffee table.

[fintastic]

[ Plopping herself down onto the couch, she doesn't waste any time in setting out the slightly water-wrinkled pieces of paper, each one a watercolor of some kind of aquatic creature. Well. They could have been worse. ]

There! Pretty great, huh?

[stayb100ponyboy]

[Equius is both surprised and pleased by her artwork.]

I had no idea you did watercolors. These are nice.

[He looks them over carefully.]

I'd be happy to put them in the gallery.

[fintastic]

You really think so? And you really will?

[ Watch as her face just lights up! The past six months of being annoyed with Equius for being a grouch? Entirely forgotten! ]

[stayb100ponyboy]

Yes, I do. Can you leave them here so I can make some frames for them?

[fintastic]

Okay! And you'll tell me when the gallery is open so I can come see, right?

[stayb100ponyboy]

Of course. I'll make an announcement on the network.

[fintastic]

Okay!

[ She pauses for a moment, kicking her feet impatiently. ]

So since I'm here anyway, why don't we hang out?

[stayb100ponyboy]

Uh... sure. If you want to.

[So apparently she isn't mad at him anymore.]

What would you like to do?

[fintastic]

We could just talk and catch up? It's been a while.

[ She pauses, then adds hopefully, ]

This means you're ready to be my friend again, right?

[stayb100ponyboy]

[... he should have figured it wouldn't be that easy.]

I never didn't want to be your friend, Feferi. I just needed time to sort things out, both with Nepeta and in my own head.

[fintastic]

You didn't answer my question! Are you ready to be my friend again or not? You only have to say yes!

[stayb100ponyboy]

[ . . . . ]

Yes.

[fintastic]

[ The only forewarning of the oncoming hug-attack is the excited glub Feferi lets off before trying to throw her arms around his shoulders. ]

It's about glubbing time!
