Orange sat in class, chewing on her pencil; their teacher, the man who came to see her in high school, had asked everyone to make whatever they wanted, just to see what they could do.
Orange had a large piece of paper on the table in front of her, but while she thought about what to draw, her mind kept drifting back to earlier, and what Blue's secret hobby could be...
"Orange, are you alright?" the teacher asked as he walked past.
She looked up at him and nodded. "Just thinking about what to draw," she admitted, not entirely a lie.
The teacher raised an eyebrow. "Do you need help?"
Orange shook her head. "No thanks,"
The teacher, a dark haired man with glasses, stared at the blank paper, then sighed and walked away, knowing he couldn't rush her.
Maybe I could draw my new friends, Orange stood up to get some coloring pencils, and got to work.
She'd meant to draw them as people, but after picking up the green pencil, she just... drew, and colored. "Orange?" and now the teacher was back!
The ginger haired girl practically threw herself over the paper, frantically covering as much as she could, resulting in her being draped over the table, and getting weird looks.
"It's not done!" she cried in a vain attempt to make him leave so she could start over.
"...Can I see?" he asked, deciding not to mention that he could already see a few stick figures; a black one and a red one.
The red one had black triangles around its arms, while the black one's arms seemed to be on fire.
Orange stared up at the table, then slowly got off the table, uncovering the picture and revealing stick figures in all different colors, some with additions like the red and black sticks; and a few had wings and halos.
The teacher just stared, it may have been basic, but the drawings were surprisingly good.
"I can start over--" Orange offered, assuming his silence to mean he didn't like it, but the teacher shook his head.
"No, this is quite impressive Orange," he admitted.
Orange frowned. "But they're just stick figures."
The teacher nodded. "And they're very well drawn."
Orange relaxed, smiling at the compliment.
The teacher smiled back before clapping, getting everyone's attention. "Alright everyone, is there anyone who isn't done yet?" A few people raised their hands. "We'll be showing our art in ten minutes," he announced, alarming Orange.
The teacher may have said it was good, but they were still stick figures, and she didn't want to get laughed at.
Yet despite that, Orange spent the next ten minutes drawing a few more stick figures, adding objects and just filling the page.
"Alright everyone!" the teacher called once the ten minutes were up. "Times up!"
People put their pens, pencils, chalk or brushes down, ready to show their masterpieces to the class, Orange just finishing off a grey hollowhead stick figure with a halo and wings.
Orange wanted to draw her blue stick figure doing something, but she could figure out what! She glanced around and noticed a familiar dark haired boy nearby painting a beautiful picture, despite it being of a battlefield.
He was adding the finishing touches to an archer; a girl aiming a bow at some kind of giant spider.
Orange looked back at her own drawing and decided to give her blue stick figure a bow as well; failing to notice the dark haired boy peeking at her as he added gloves to his archer.
