and that feeling was friendship (gigner balls x wizar 🙏)

besties??? besties.

It was reaching the time for Gingerbrave and Wizard Cookie to meet up at their spot.
Wizard dreaded it. Why did Brave want to get close so badly? The 2 were great friends already, in Wizard's opinion.

Wizard looked at the time. 5:05. Surely Gingerbrave wouldn't be upset if his friend is a bit late, right? Wizard got himself ready and took his staff, he headed over to the same spot they went to the previous day. Gingerbrave was waiting on a pile of leaves and was using his cane to draw some type of picture in the dirt.

"You draw?" Wizard was slightly intrigued and tried to get a good look at what Brave was drawing, but the cookie jumped and quickly erased it.
"No-! Well- yes," Brave smiled awkwardly.
"Hm.. if you're gonna keep me here, draw something for me."
"Huh?" this immediately caught Brave's attention.
"Draw something for me. Like.. i dunno, me? or a cake hound, maybe me and a cake hound" Wizard trailed off in possibilities and came to a stop when he heard Gingerbrave giggling. He found it a bit cute, maybe this wouldnt be so bad in the end?  "Sure, I'll draw the almighty wise Wizard Cookie," Gingerbrave laughed and used his cane to draw in the dirt once again with Wizard peeking over his shoulder.

So much detail was put in the drawing and it seemed to confuse the lad a bit. Why put so much detail in a drawing thats bound to be erased? Then he noticed that Gingerbrave hardly looked at him for reference when drawing, as if Brave had drawn Wizard so many times he just memorized every little detail of the cookie. But alas, that was an absurd thought.

"Done!" Brave stood up with a hint of proudness in his voice that startled Wizard. He was so drowned in his thoughts he didn't even notice how much time has passed. Wizard got a good look at the drawing and noticed that Gingerbrave had drawn.. both of them together. They seemed to be laughing together. Wizard was mostly impressed Brave managed to capture his emotions.

"It's...really nice.." he complimented
"You think so?"
"Indeed"
"Really?"
"Just take the compliment before I take it back" he sighed with annoyance, making Brave chuckle.
"Okay, Okay!" he smiled. Wizard couldnt help but smile back.

"Gingerbrave youre rather not as smart as I thought you'd be," Wizard spoke in response to Brave's story about when he threw hands with a giant cake hound.
"But I made it out alive and I am now here relaxing with my friend," Brave finished.
The two were laying side by side in the grass and watched the clouds in the sky, they've been talking about everything and anything. Fun facts, stories, embarrassing moments, Wizard never thought that this crackhead of a cookie would be the first to get him to open up.
"It's getting late," he broke the comforting silence. "Aww man! Already? Well, see you next time I guess," Gingerbrave shrugged and Wizard mumbled something.
"What was that?"
[inaudible mumbling]
"C-Come again?"
"Do you want to,. .skrkrkck. .,"
"Wizard I can't understand you at all- are you okay?" Brave tilted his head which made Wizard even more embarrassed. "I said.... w..wouldyouliketohaveasleepover?"
"A sleepover?" his eyes widened, Wizard just nodded. "I'd love to!"

Wizard and Gingerbrave stepped into the room. They decided on Brave's room since Wizard didn't want to risk more of his stuff getting stolen and randomly returned one day. He was busy observing the room when suddenly something soft hit him square in the face.
It was Gingerbrave. With a pillow. Challenging Wizard to a pillow fight.
Wizard giggled and picked up a pillow and got in stance. It was going to be a fun night.
