Memories

He looked at Roy's new painting, tucking a lock of pink hair back behind an his ear. Naturally pink, mind you, though his refusal to dye or cut it had gotten him into some serious scuffles, the most prominent reminder of which was the scar across his face, narrowly missing an eye.

The painting brought up mixed emotions for him, even unfinished as it was. He eyed the yellowish demon-thing in particular. It wasn't that he didn't like it, quite the opposite in fact - it spoke to something in him, but... "Roy? Pink hair notwithstanding, you do realize I don't have breasts, right?"

Roy looked at him with a resigned little smile. "Of course. But, Gill, how did you know she was you?"

Gill blinked at Roy, and had no answer.

*Melts into happy puddle.* A little late but you still did it! Yay! And go Male!Argilla, he still so totally owns Roland! *Hugs you as best a puddle can.*

XD;; Glad you like! And yeah, I don't think I'll be taking this many prompts again next round, I've definitely found my limit, but I'm gonna get at least one more done tomorrow! *determined face*

I can totally see male!Argilla as a kinda muscular, rough exterior, soft heart type guy. *g* And Roland as leaning more towards the arts, and getting picked on a bit. And then Gill comes along and hauls his ass out of trouble and it's the start of a beautiful friendship. XD

This is just /adorable/. I can't really come up with more than that. Just... a-freaking-dorible.

Brilliant :D, and dude, I have to ask, how did you do Prithivi in the painting? Because she's PERFECT, it's incredible! I love Roy's face, it's so open and sweet without the zillion layers of angst and hurt Roland has, and it's just lovely :). And awesome that Argilla was reincarnated as a pink-haired boy :D. *tries imagining Gale as a green-haired girl and starts nosebleeding happily*

Thank you! And now try imagining Heat as a girl. XD

For the 'painting', I did a light pencil-sketch of the figures, then some light marker outlines where I needed them, erased the pencil, and completed it in marker ^_^ It was fun to work with only colours to define the forms - I should probably pick up some actual painting again. X3
