An overdue Sai for Speedykitten1643.

"This is… a very tastefully drawn blob," Sai uttered in slow syllables as he tilted the paper in his hand to a different angle, his head following in suit.
Brows furrowed and pure disbelief etched into her expression, it took all Kagome had not to scoff in incredulous response. A blob…! That's what he calls my three hours of nonstop hard work?
As though to rub salt onto the wound the shinobi nodded in affirmation. "I've never seen anything so simple yet complex. This is rather clever, Kagome-san."
"No, no!" she dissented, flitting over to his side and jabbing at a particular feature of her 'blob'. "This is definitely a rabbit, Sai-kun. Can't you see that these are the ears? Why else would they be sticking up like that?"
Sai's lips adopted a speculative line as he took her input into consideration.
"No… I am certain that this is a compelling blob and not a rabbit, Kagome-san."
Art is a step from what is obvious and well-known toward what is arcane and concealed.

Author's Note: Oh, Sai, you weren't even the one to draw that alleged blob.
