Blank Page Art Club, Art Classroom, Monday 2/16 (After Classes)

[thismaskiwear.livejournal.com]

It wasn't by intention or design that Katchoo made it down before everyone else did this week, unless you meant by the intention and design of a cute and innocuous little clock who'd pestered her and pestered her until she headed down just to find that she was the first one there.

With a shrug, she got all the supplies out, set up an easel for herself in the corner, and got to work after putting up a sign that read:

Georgia O'Keefe had flowers. What's your metaphor?

It wasn't really a discussion question. It was just sort of there -- she wanted to see if the dirty implications hadn't occurred to anyone yet, and how they'd react.

Katchoo's given in to the inevitability of other people being social.

Angela was one of the inevitably sociable people, and feeling far more like that this week than she had been last time around.

She was around and picking at a pack of Skittles, and possibly also giving some thought to metaphors.

"Hey," Peyton said with a smile. She was looking maybe a little smug.

Re: Chat/Mingle

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Heeey to you too," Angela replied, noting that smugness with a slight raised eyebrow.

"What are you looking so smirky about?"

Might as well get the question straight out there.

Liir had no idea who Georgia O'Keefe was, or what her metaphor might be, but he supposed flowers would be a nice subject for something.

Re: Chat/Mingle

Cal gave a slight snort at the prompt. In that vein of things, it wasn't metaphor he preferred to work with so much as it was anonymity. As he thought about it a little, though, he realized he was surprisingly literal when it came to his artistic pursuits.

Claire smiled an odd sort of smile when she realized what her answer to the question had to be.

"Death," she announced. "Death is my metaphor."

... and she wondered why people thought she was morbid.

Re: Chat/Mingle

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

Cal told himself he should have kept that laughing grin off his face, but he couldn't help it. Claire was just adorable when she was being so...macabre.

"For what?" he asked, smirking.

And maybe blushing a little bit, too, because, come on. Geogria O'Keefe and metaphors, here.

Re: Chat/Mingle

It took Claire a second to answer because his smirk required she smile back at him, and it was probably so cute everyone else in the room wanted to puke.

"For, like, everything," she said, looking at her shoes because this was too sincere to really share with everyone. "If you see how somebody dies, what their funeral is like, you see how they lived. It's like this bizarre little snapshot of everything else."

Re: Chat/Mingle

"Which aspect?" Alice asked, intrigued. "Dying itself, the moment of death, or its aftermath?"

Re: Chat/Mingle

[swipedthatfoot.livejournal.com]

Claire was mostly just talking to talk; it took her a second to refocus on Alice. "Aftermath," she finally said, blinking just a little. "My family runs a funeral home. I've kind of thought a lot about dead bodies."

Re: Chat/Mingle

Claudia wouldn't be able to tell you what a metaphor was if you put a gun to her head, so she was ignoring the question thing.

Re: Chat/Mingle

Sokka smirked at the group. "I got your metaphor right HERE, baby."

Re: Chat/Mingle

[notyourpawn.livejournal.com]

"Chess," Alice said simply. "Or playing cards. The two cover a nice range of situations."

Re: Chat/Mingle

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

"Fire is my metaphor."

Be Creative

[thismaskiwear.livejournal.com]

. . . as you do. In art club. Who knew?

Re: Be Creative

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

Using one of the few metaphors that immediately came to mind, Cal was working in darkly colored chalks, sketching out something of a long limbed frog, sticky fingers splayed desperately on the branch of something he just barely managed to grab, the angle of it hopefully working to the effect to show that the jump hadn't been enough, and the sticky fingers would fail and the frog would drop into the dismal dark below it.

It was either that, or working with a lot of leaves, most of them on fire.

Re: Be Creative

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka painted a picture of his big, powerful boomerang thrusting out at the enemy.

...No, it wasn't a metaphor for anything! Really!

Talk to Ms. Aldrin

When the esteemed advisorly one pings in!

Lily was here, and if there were dirty implications, she got it.

I'll have you know I kept wanting to type ART CRAWL! And was in fact sad when the comm tag didn't come up that way.
