Stan smiled to himself. Of course. Why didn't he think of it before? He cast one last glance at the boy quietly working, before turning around, preparing to go back down the stairs and sit with Ike, when of course, the doorbell had to ring, scaring the shit out of Stan, who cursed quietly before remembering himself and turning back to see that Kyle had stopped working and was now staring in his direction.
Crap.
Stan swallowed and stared back at his ex-best friend, thinking it was quite disconcerting to have those green eyes looking at him without any kind of recognition at all. After a few seconds, it grew kind of awkward, just staring at each other, and Stan thought he might have to start a conversation, if only to relieve the awkwardness, though he would never have started one otherwise.

Artist's Notes
I wanted to express the importance of the gazing scene by painting it out and separating Stan's and Kyle's images to make it look like screencaps. I used a lot of violets in the background, but looking at the images now, I sort of wished I went all out with heightening the contrast. I also wanted the focus to be on Kyle, which is why his art seems a bit more dramatic compared to Stan's.
