[ oh. ]

I can't say certain things, or, rather, whenever I try to say certain things it comes out as the opposite.

[reconnective]

...that's weird. Can you give me an example?

[sacredchants]

[ SIGHS. well, at least she's gotten good at finding things that aren't embarrassing—as embarrassing. ]

I absolutely love the Realm. It's my favorite place.

[reconnective]

[...he just squints.]

Sooooo now you can just tell lies really easily? [that's what he's taking from this.]

[sacredchants]

[ closes fourteen eyes.

sora, please........... ]

I think you're so clever and wonderful.

[reconnective]

[...haha.]

Well that's inconvenient. When'd that start?

[sacredchants]

[ look.... ]

Today; I woke up and suddenly found that I was like this.

[reconnective]

Okay...well it's not from the moon, so what do you think it is? The Realm's mad about something? Or did you break a rule maybe?

[sacredchants]

I talked to my leader and they suggested it might be prank played but tiger but when I asked tiger they didn't know.

[ she'll grumble. ]

So, no one knows.

[reconnective]

[...HM.]

Are you sure Tiger was telling the truth?

[sacredchants]

Anymore truthful than any of the other leaders here.

[ don't get her started on this, sora. ]

[reconnective]

[fair enough.]

Okay, I get it. [hrm.] Who else have you told besides me?

[sacredchants]

Claude and...

[ she hesitates and thinks about how to word this. ]

—the person I seem to be drawn to for the week thus far.

[ though that person might not actually realize it but it's fine. izumo is actually not always rude to everyone ever and that's shocking. ]

[reconnective]

[...well give him a second.]

Claude's not a bad choice. [he respects claude, actually, so. but second of all:] Is something like this going to happen every week, you think? Last week it was all touchy-feely, and now this week it's the same but it's just for one person instead of everybody.

[sacredchants]

[ the idea of being tormented and put through even more weeks of being cuddle buddies with someone else.... ]

I hope not. It makes it hard to think.

[ her voice trails for a moment and she'll definitely turn her face and mumble her continued response. ]

...but if I could keep it to the same person then it wouldn't be so bad.

[reconnective]

It's definitely distracting. [and...he's just as deaf as you are, izumo, he can't hear the mumbling.

unfortunately he's also just nosy, so that doesn't stop him from asking anyway.]

Who are you connected with this week anyway?

[sacredchants]

[ maybe that's why she was mumbling!! get a clue!!! either way, she's going to go moderately into tsun mode at his question.

why. why is sora like this??? ]

Y, you tell me your's first!

[reconnective]

[no that would make me ooc. the tsun bothers him less and less, at least.]

Ochako. [did. she really think that would deter him?] It's not that bad. I like hanging out with her.

[sacredchants]

[ NOT EVERYONE IS AS BRAZEN....... but she should have expected this on some level. some terrible level. that said, she won't be as forthcoming with it and kind of go back and forth a few times.

she could reject him!! ignore him!! but wouldn't that just look even more weird? ugh... ]

...A, Alphinaud.

[ also ty. how dare you walk into this. i hate you. ]

[reconnective]

[....lmfao. WELL. this puts some things into context but he doesn't plan on saying shit so he just. smiles. :)]

He's pretty nice, isn't he? I don't think I'd mind someone like him either if it were me. [he is being polite about it, but he's also sincere? it's nice that izumo is nice to somebody, damn.]

[sacredchants]

[ don't think she doesn't notice that smile or the what he's going about it. she'll shove him!! in that way that a friend would shove another friend, no real malice behind it but just born from being embarrassed. ]

W, wh, what's that smile about!

[ ftr, yes. he is very nice. ]

[reconnective]

[she can shove!! but he's just laughing to himself and doesn't seem the least bothered.]

Nothing! Don't worry about it. I just think it's nice you have somebody you get along with.

[...also he's aware alphinaud's worried over her and that's nice, too. someone to look out for her in this place isn't a bad thing.]

[sacredchants]

[ she does not give him the honor of a comeback and just emulates this entire icon as he laughs. (anything she'd say would make it worse, anyway.)

how embarrassing!!! she had been great about avoiding talking about it for THIS LONG. maybe should have gone for being weird. at least she doesn't shove him again but just crosses her arms and taps her foot.

very, very stereotypical tsun behavior. please, how dare sora get this information on her. how dare!!!! ]

[reconnective]

[stop, that just makes him think it's funnier? he's not dumb enough to tell her that to her face but he's absolutely thinking it!! but he quiets down and faces her with a grin even while she's glaring at him.]

...he came to find me on Monday. I don't know if he told you, but he was worried about what happened. I'm glad you had someone you could trust to help you when we got back.

[sacredchants]

[ THE GRINNING IS TERRIBLE. SHE FEELS SO SEEN. but she trips up when sora explains things and. well. hmm. ]

He...he didn't mention that to me.

[ and this makes her feel a bit??? of course they had conversations about his opinions of finding her hurt one way or another but.. to go to someone—the fact that sora used the word "trust" and her entire body doesn't run cold or trigger a violent rejection...

closes my eyes at how it's week 1. let me rest........ ]
