I guess? I've never done it.

You don't have to make pictures, in fact art can be well... Violent at times too.

[sarcaskick]

[ ... violent art?? ]

Okay, so that last thing you said? I'm going to need you to elaborate.

[riptidequeen]

[Violent art!]

Yeah, instead of using brushes and pencils and such you can like. Throw paint at a canvas, or smash things together.

[sarcaskick]

... So you can get art supplies, beat the hell out of 'em, and people call that "art"?

[riptidequeen]

I'm pretty sure you can call anything art and someone will agree with you?

[Look at the stuff Lapis has made art out of, she's used TOILETS for stars sake.]

[sarcaskick]

Wait, so if anything is art, doesn't that mean the word "art" doesn't actually mean anything?

[riptidequeen]

... Maybe? I never thought of it like that. And I mostly call it meep morps.

[sarcaskick]

You call it what.

[riptidequeen]

Meep Morps.

[Sheesh, don't make her repeat it.]

[sarcaskick]

... Is that, like, alien rock language or something?

[riptidequeen]

No, it's just what I called some art I did a while ago back home.

[sarcaskick]

Soooo if everything is art, and meep morp is just some bullshit phrase you made up, and meep morp is art...

Art is bullshit?

[riptidequeen]

Uh... maybe? If you want to think of it that way.

But then again you could say the same thing about anything, even your training.

[sarcaskick]

Nah, I don't think they're really comparable. When I train, I can show how strong I've gotten. I can see my progress. There's a difference between good training and bad training, you know?

[riptidequeen]

Not really, like I said. I've never trained in my life.

[When your powers are a natural thing you just know how to do, you don't need to train.]

[sarcaskick]

Then you'll have to trust my expert opinion on the matter.

[riptidequeen]

Somehow I don't think trusting you on a lot of things is a good idea, including this, Mercury.

[sarcaskick]

Hey, I may not take most things seriously but staying in shape and getting stronger is the most important thing there is.

[riptidequeen]

... There's a lot more to life than being strong.

[sarcaskick]

The people who died because they weren't strong enough might disagree.

[riptidequeen]

Maybe, maybe not. They can't really say anything what with being dead.

[sarcaskick]

Yeah. Exactly.

[riptidequeen]

[Sigh.]

... Well, I made my suggestion for something to do. What you do with it is up to you.

[sarcaskick]

Yeah.

... I'll think about it.

[ It's not a "no". It's not a "thank you", either, but that much is to be expected. ]
