Bringing Style to the Aquarium | Chapter 2

Jay: Alrighty then, Faith. What do you say we start brainstorming a design?

Faith: Sure.

...'Cause I’ll probably have to fix a bunch of stuff, anyway.

Jay: Since it’s for an aquarium, we can’t leave out the fish. We should probably also include the aquarium’s name for publicity.

Faith: Maybe, but I don’t think there’s any reason to force the name on there if it doesn’t fit.

If you can incorporate it cleanly then fine, but making words fit is pretty tough.

Jay: But what good does it do for publicity if people don’t know which aquarium it’s from?

Since we were the ones entrusted with this, I want it to lead to the best outcome possible.

Faith: I mean, yeah...

(I guess it makes sense to think that way just from having done other PR work before.)

(If he just had a sense of style to go with it...)

Jay: Blue is probably the best color to use. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to try to show light shining through the water’s surface, either.

Faith: Why don’t you try penning a design?

For now, just run with the direction you were thinking.

Jay: Okay, then let’s both design something and show each other after!

Faith: Huh? I can think of something too?

Jay: That’s more fun, isn’t it?

Faith: ...You’re not wrong.

(To start, I’ll just let him do whatever he wants. He could end up coming up with something better than I think.)

———

Faith: ......

(I’m not coming up with anything...)

(I’ve been to an aquarium before, but I don’t really remember much.)

Jay: ...♪

Faith: (Aha, he’s having a good time. He looks like he’s making good progress. Wonder what design he came up with—)

Faith: Woah.

Jay: Hmm?

What’s wrong, Faith? Looks like you’re stuck.

Faith: I’m drawing a blank over here... But more importantly, what’d you come up with?

Jay: Oh, it’s still just a rough sketch, but... what do you think? Pretty close to what I described before, yeah?

Faith: ......

(It’s fine to have a lot of fish, but they’re laid out so randomly that it looks disjointed.)

(He also used about every color under the sun, so it looks more like a rainbow than the sea.)

(And why did he put the logo there...? It’s more distracting than anything.)

(...To put it bluntly, it’s hideous.)

Jay: Faith?

Faith: ......

Jay: ...Haha, that bad, huh?
