Warnings: -

[Some time between Day 290 and 293, a strange structure had come to sit against an outside wall of the old apartments. And also in that time, the entire side that it sat against had been painted pure white.

Slowly through those days, a rough sketch started to appear as well, detailing familiar faces of the residents of the Bastion in various poses as well as a large "banner" drawn above them with... some sort of text that most people weren't going to be able to read unless they were Japanese.

Not that Haruka was giving much thought to language barriers. This was his mural project, the same one he had been going on about for some time now, in it's beginning stages with not much to be impressed about beyond the obvious skill behind the preliminary sketches that had gone up.

Today was no different in that he would be continuing to work on it, and even starting the arduous task of painting all those people.

Though if anyone passed by in the late afternoon, they might think he had ducked out early due to the absence of the scraggly-haired teen on the scaffolding that Colin had built for him.

Except...

is that snoring coming from up there?]

[beware, Haruka, because Ibuki heard you snoring! She's deftly climbing up the scaffolding with ease before looming over the sleeping young man with a marker in hand!]

[bedheadstyle]

[Clearly Haruka has marker senses!

Or the smell of it caught his attention.

Yeah, that one.

Either way, an eye peeks open just as Ibuki gets close enough.]

Are you going to make me pretty, Ibuki-san?

[scary_music]

Yesss, Ibuki is going to make you a pretty kitty!!

[Not even remotely deterred, she lowers the marker toward Haruka's face, intending to add cat whiskers to his face]

[bedheadstyle]

[He's totally okay with this. What a loser.]

Nyaa!

[scary_music]

[She draws the whiskers on his face, and then... offers him the marker]

Now, now make Ibuki a cute neko-chan, too, Haruka-chan!

[bedheadstyle]

[Kitty-Haru!]

Okay okay! Do you want me to give you cute kitty spots?

[scary_music]

Yeah! Adorable little kitty spots! Make Ibuki the cutest kitty the Bastion has ever seen!

[bedheadstyle]

I can do that! Gimmie the marker, I'll do it!

[What. Nerds.]

[scary_music]

Yeah, yeah, do it do it!

[offering the marker]

[bedheadstyle]

I've never made some one in to a kitty before!

[It will be fun! And Ibuki will be the cutest kitty with hair horns ever!]

[scary_music]

You can do it! Ibuki believes in you!

[bedheadstyle]

Okay! Let's do this!

[And now Ibuki's face is being drawn on!]

[scary_music]

[She can't help but giggle. That tickles a bit!]

[bedheadstyle]

Don't move, don't move!

[Breathe, Ibuki. Try not to laugh too hard.]

[scary_music]

I-Ibuki's trying...!!!!!!!!!

[bedheadstyle]

Shhh!

[He's almost done! So close!]

[scary_music]

[Ibuki somehow manages to hold still! Go Haruka go!]

[bedheadstyle]

Aaaaand... done!

[Tada! Kitty Ibuki!]

[scary_music]

Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaa~~

[she even does the cat pose with her hands]

[bedheadstyle]

Cutest kitty!

[Haruka claps excitedly, returning the pose after.]

That was fun.

[scary_music]

Yeah!

We should go get some kitty ear headbands from the monument!!

[bedheadstyle]

B... but I don't have any shards. I can't go out on the Skyway.

[scary_music]

Then Ibuki can just buy yours for you!

[bedheadstyle]

R-really... ? You'd do that for me?

[scary_music]

We're friends, right? Aren't we, Haruka-chan? Friends do stuff for friends!
