Go big or go home by Infersea on DeviantArt (original) (raw)
And with this i am DONE i feel like ive drawn more in the last 4 weeks than i have since 2018 and it was still down to the wire. I almost gave up about 100 times butgot through in the end and racked up a few points for sails in his registires.

Nath and sails have their matching lightning bolt earing/bridle decor and i think its super cute.
I had soo much fun with this one. Once i saw the parade i knew immediatly that i wanted the idiots to try to embarass their friend and fail horribly as he just doesnt care. He's very much go big or go home.
I had thought of various outfits to put him in from Grimmance to Waluigi but then i thought of the potential of a pair of glittery swooshy shorts and it just had to be done.
I know it's not full purple but i hope there is enough for it to count. I tried a purple shirt but it killed the vibe

"Luke... I'm going to need an explanation." he couldn't help but scowl and toss the offending article onto the bed. "Can you explain to me where my outfit for the parade may be?" He should have never entrusted his two best friends to be in charge of making sure his gear made it to him in one piece. Not without tampering. How could he have been so foolish. At least he had decided to check the day before the class
He looked to Luke and then glared down to the shimmering pair of shorts that lay there "Okay question one. Where did you even... you know what i'm not even going to ask. Two, how do you know i'm going to fit in these? they look mighty short and i'm not the skinny bean i used to be."
“First answer, it was all on Cap. Second answer. He made me try them on.”
"Wait he made YOU try them on. Mr I'm a rancher and live in denim? He better have have pictures. If you're making me do this then you're not living it down either bud" the anger was slipping away and the smile spread across his face. even 10,000 miles from home Cap was finding ways to fuck with him and he was not going to give him the satisfaction of winning.
"Fine. Lets see what else you're putting me in" he said hauling his suitcase up onto the bed "Crop top? and what are these... knee highs...leg warmers Okay okay i see where your pea brains are heading" standing back he mused at the ensemble before him "I can work with this."
If there was one thing Nathan lacked it was shame. The moment he stepped out from his cabin heads were turning. Then again who wouldn't look when a 6 foot something idiot walked past with dazzling shorts and a crop top that barely covered his waist.
Of course Adjustments had to be made between the discovery and now. If you're going to do something stupid you had to do it right. He may lack shame but he had standards. The Idiots forgot the accessories essential to finish the look and serve the 80s roller derby disco esque vibes that they seemed to have been going for but luckily Nathan was more than prepared to head out and find the finishing touches, no easy feat when it came to the essential bum bag and sweat bands. And as for Sails hoof paint? Surprisingly none of the local tack shops sold vibrant purple glitter so it was about 2 pots of Maybellines finest.
With the finishing touches they headed out to the photo area sails looking at his owner like they were an idiot while Nathan struck a pose and waved to the camera and his friend doubled over cackling in the background.
