originallutece: (talk; would you kindly shut up)

Certainly she ended up getting to know some of our neighbors better. I liked--

[Ah. She hesitates, then focuses a little too hard on the plate and spreading the rice out evenly.]

Well. I was fond of getting her to do things, yes. Hers were more along the lines of my doing her homework for her.
roseblooms: you get dandelions and thistles because fuck you (REGARD ❁ sleeveless turtlenecks are in)

It's a good thing we're not exchanging dares and favors, then. Surely it's a conflict of interest of the highest order, to have a professor doing my homework for me.

[Hopefully that will make her laugh, anyway. With the rice done, he starts getting together the things they'll need to properly fry it for the omurice.]

And I really can't think of anything I'd have you do, anyway. So I suppose I'd be a rather poor sport at that sort of wager.
originallutece: yes i did it in ink, do you want to see? (talk; just finished the crossword)

[She doesn't laugh, but she does smile, so that's something.]

Really? And here I thought you were far more creative than that.
roseblooms: can you stand against my hierophant greenery (GLASSES ❁ this is my kakyoin impression)

...On a night like this, it'd feel like taking advantage of you.

[Which is decidedly not worth laughing about, but it's earnest in its honesty.]

Would a game like that really serve as a distraction for you?
originallutece: that's really original (talk; oh another sexist remark)

[personal profile] originallutece 2017-06-04 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
. . . no. Not tonight.

[She finally meets his gaze.]

I was simply curious, that's all. Speaking more of in the hypothetical, not . . . not anything that we ought to do tonight.
roseblooms: we're just statler and waldorf on the sidelines, really (WATCH ❁ time for some color commentary)

[personal profile] roseblooms 2017-06-04 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm. I see. But I still think we should play rummy — for bragging rights, if nothing else, and with a side of comfort food to accompany it while we do.

[Her face looks so wrong with gray eyes. It's such a slight and inconsequential change, except that somehow it still manages to change everything.]
originallutece: no i heard you robert i understood it i'm just waiting to see if you're done (talk; robert just made a pun)

[personal profile] originallutece 2017-06-04 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
All right. Though I hope you're not preparing yourself to brag; I'm very good at this game, Fawkes.

[A few seconds pass, and she smiles again: tiredly, yes, but fondly.]

Simply because you beat me in video games is no indication of how you'll fare now.
roseblooms: and sometimes the trick is your house burns down (KNOWING ❁ trickster fox is redundant)

What fun would a game be if I weren't playing to try to topple a worthy opponent?

I'm looking forward to matching wits with you.
