Kaoru = Chair; Arai and Kaoru's First Date/Jealousy Battle Plan?!
Ah, I finally make an art post here! Unfortunately, all these are VERY sketchy and rough -_-; Medical excuse-tendonitis type problems in my right arm have had me on and off drawing hiatus all summer. I can't really say if these'll get worked on more, ever (due as much to wandering interests as health).
But hey, for now enjoy, if you please, some sloppy low-quality art and gag comic things. Lower all expectations before entering!
(DevArt: Kaoru does not think he is a chair. Hikaru doesn't agree.)
(Actually quite platonic and rated G, sorry..)
Then four pages of sloppy, PG comic-ish silliness, inspired by
insightful mentioning an urge to do an Arai x Kaoru fic XD
When Arai suddenly gets an interest in Kaoru the latter seizes the opportunity to...redirect Hikaru's attentions.
The images are kind of big, just to warn you all. Complete dialogue? Formatting? Don’t count on it. Any and all suggestions/criticisms would be much appreciated.
Arai approaches Kaoru, watermelon in hand of course. Hikaru is overreacting already.
this little thing also desperately needs to be re-drawn.
Kaoru seizes the opportunity and makes to leave with Arai right away, intending to use the boy to show Hikaru how it feels when dear brother takes too much interest in certain commoner[s].
Hikaru protests, but Kaoru declares airily, “Brother, it works out after all~! This way we’ll both get oblivious commoners!” Haruhi shrugs, she had dialogue but I erased it aleady >.>;
But, Kaoru, Arai, and Haruhi end up enjoying polite and mildly flirtatious conversation over watermelon while Hikaru clings possessively to his brother’s shoulders. And all is right in the world.
Alternative ending!: Instead of eating watermelon Kaoru quickly drags Arai out for his own Karuizawa date, leaving Hikaru standing there in defeat on the absolute worst page of this comic thing. “See you later, Hi~ka~ruu~…”
Hikaru delves into a brief soul-searching monologue akin to what runs through Kaoru’s head when lamenting/contemplating Hikaru’s interest in Haruhi in fanfics. Haruhi moves to pat him on the back in consolation, but stops in her tracks as Hikaru’s dialogue quickly turns selfish, thinking of how to keep his brother close by his side. A leash…? Kinky!
Meanwhile, Kaoru’s bored and lonely, but feigns interest in Arai’s conversation until a collar gets snapped around his neck.
He’s whirled around, face to face with Hikaru, leash in hand.
Hikaru: You’ve been straying lately, Ka~o~ruu…
Kaoru: OH~! Hikaru!
Mini monologue: You have reached a new level of seme-ness! I fall for you once again!
Arai: Was I just rejected again? (yes, and used-poor boy .A.;;)
Haruhi (random): You should try the twin sandwich sometime, it’s delicious.
She actually means some Karuizawa-special double-sandwich thing she’s eating, but of course it’s a poke at the OTHER kind of twin sandwich..
Lastly, all this also reminds me of this picture (not my art, FYI), I couldn’t resist adding it here XD;
How the Karuizawa story could’ve gone...? Ah, if only, if only…
