* ''Fanfic/{{Syngenesophobia}}'': Chapter 31 contains a rare positive example. During art class, while his classmates are all well into their projects, Lincoln doesn't even know what to draw. He panics when he sees that the teacher, who has been making his way around the room student to student, is now at Ronnie Anne, who is the student next to him. Desperate to have something for his teacher to see so not to get punished, he draws what he has been seeing in his dreams. He ends up creating a large, incredibly complex and high quality drawing in the space of a few minutes. When his teacher sees it, he is so impressed he doesn't even stop to tell Lincoln where to improve his work before moving onto the next student.

They finally agree to let Binky work on his project while Arthur and Buster do a different exhibit.
