Fwhip smiled to himself, his admin bracelet had finally been given back. It was now Monday again, and he was supposed to be going to attend a build team meeting.

The male had lost his sister in the crowds of students, even though they were heading to the same place. "Fwhip! Oh thank goodness! I was following Joel and Pixlriffs, and I got lost!" Fwhip felt the taller wrap his arms comfortably around his waist, "How'd you lose Pix?"

Considering Pixlriff's was in no way short compared to most the student population, maybe average, but that was still pretty hard to lose.

"I was just walking— and— and like, the guy just disappeared!" Sausage tightened his arms around Fwhip, "Where were you following them to?" Fwhip decided, yeah, the generic question was gonna be the one he asks second. "The building club room! You're going there too, aren't you?"

Fwhip nodded before slowly removing Sausage's grasp, "Yeah, you're interested? I can bring you there." The brunette's face lit up, Fwhip couldn't help but smile. The male was almost the same compared to 5 years ago, still chirpy and happy. Only now, he was taller than Fwhip and had a deeper voice.

In 5th grade Sausage was like at least half a head shorter compared to the ginger, now he was around the same height, if not, taller. But it wasn't all that noticeable.

"Thanks, congrats on last year. Joel bragged all about it yesterday." Sausage grabbed the other's hand, Fwhip was caught off guard. Sure, they did this before, but that was when they were like 12 and these types of things were 'normal.' Now, 5 years later, holding hands was a sign of affection.

"Th... thanks." Sausage smiled as they started walking. "When'd you dye your bangs? It looks nice." He asked as he stared at the other's hair, it looked fluffy. "Oh, I dyed it at the start of 10th grade. I told myself, new year new me. I kept dying it the same colour because—" He stopped walking as he felt Sausage comb his hair with his fingers.

"Whatever hair conditioner you use, it's very nice." The brunette smiled as he pet the other's head, kinda strange according to Fwhip. But it doesn't matter what he thinks about it, because his dragon was very happy with the petting. The male's dragon horns were sprouting beneath his hair, "It's the same as Gem's, Inca, I think that's the name of the conditioner."

Fwhip didn't know what to think of whatever Sausage was doing, so he started to walk again, this time speed-walking. "Wait up!" Sausage grabbed the male's wrists to keep up with his pace, or just because, Fwhip wasn't sure. "Why were you so mean to Jimmy

He dragged Sausage to the building club room, which had a rather long line of people waiting. Mostly freshmen, but Fwhip noticed one of the new students in his economics class was also in the line, what was her name? The male ended up stopping to stare at her, the blonde held a smile as she looked back.

"Sausage, you already got a boyfriend?" The blonde asked, Sausage laughed at the female's analogy. "Of course not, I couldn't score a boyfriend like Fwhip in 5 years! Let alone 5 days! We're just friends." Fwhip let go of the other's hand quickly, putting his hands together as he took a deep breath..

The blonde's eyes fell onto Fwhip's wrist, she noticed his admin bracelet. "Ohh~ You're Gem's brother! That's why you looked so familiar! Fwhip, right?" Sausage clasped his hands together in excitement, "You're already friends with Gem! That's awesome!"

"Yeah, what's your name?" Fwhip asked, he knew he was already supposed to know considering that's what a good admin should know. But that's not what he remembers, so here he is. "False, nice to meet you." They exchanged smiles once more before the build club door busted open.

"Fwhip! Why the heck are you outside?! We gotta rate the auditions!" Joel's disappointed voice was enough, Fwhip let out a breathy laugh before waving goodbye to Sausage and False. "What were you doing outside anyway? Talking to the auditions?"

"I was talking to False and Sausage, because some people lost the guy in the hallway." The ginger looked to Pix, who sighed, "He was too busy admiring the entrance to the admin council room. You decorated it with candles and stuff, he got side-tracked and I forgot he wasn't following me."

"Yeah, blah, blah— we gotta start or else I won't get to meet Lizzie after school at the pace we're going." Joel snapped his fingers impatiently. At the beginning of the school year, the entire build club gets 1 day off to do get new members. Since everyone the year before them didn't even wanna join the build club, it's just run by the juniors.

Aka, them.

"Yeah, we wouldn't want your 60th date this month to the aquarium to be ruined..." Scott mumbled sarcastically, Joel ignored him and opened the second door to the build room. This one was where the line of people was.

"Yeah, hello— one at a time." Joel let in the first person. "Welcome to hell, we have a dragon, wizard, llama-trainer, Elsa, a mushroom— And me, club president. What do you bring?" Joel asked in the most monotone voice he could muster, the freshman was rather intimidated.

"What our gracious president wanted to say, was— may we see your portfolio?"








"Sausage! Buddy! You better win us over, because we've already given 2/3 spots away to Iron woman and Thanksgiving gift card." Joel motioned to False, and a freshman boy named Sincere. Sausage took out a folded piece of paper from his jean pockets and started unfolding it.

"This isn't a magic show, we don't care if you have magic." Joel cut in, Sausage chuckled. "I just, brought a collage of my best works! I like building villages." The male kept unfolding, the 'paper' was now over a metre long.

"He's pretty good, compared to the last people we just saw. I mean, look at this, Joel." Pix pointed to one of the buildings in his collage, Sausage grinned as he held the paper up. "You're so on the team, I don't care what melon lord has to say— this is amazing!" Shubble was in awe while admiring the builds.

"You included the dirt house we built in grade 3?" Fwhip asked, stifling a laugh as he noticed the picture of the build in the corner. "Of course! It's one of my best collaborate works!" Sausage smiled at him before turning back to Joel, who had the final say.

"Fine. You're on, Bologna." Sausage cheered, dropping his collage on the ground. "Yes! I'm gonna make so much friends!"


















yay witherhusband crumbs cuz y'all been starving, for real. Also, the build team works like this:

-Each year has a set team
-The next year that team is automatically on the team, unless they decline
-They get to choose new members if people sign up, and they hold auditions early in the year so they can start planning out their projects for the year
-Repeat each year ig lol
