CFUW 135 - Shepherd's Tea Party

[moextispicy]

[the little room with the computer has become even more lush and cozy than the wolves' room, and Lambda and Rika have settled in there to gossip and be "helpful" towards Accelerator's efforts.]

[giggles] Fugu's a bit surprisingly boring, isn't it?

[zettai]

[giggle] If this isn't to your liking, I could prepare a very special plate just for you!

[moextispicy]

Your taste is too sweet.

[zettai]

Oh, but this dish would have a bit of a sting to it~

[moextispicy]

[skeptical look] Sure, why not?

[zettai]

[giggles and drapes on Rika, tracing along one side of her face with her fingers] Rika~, do you know why fugu needs to be specially prepared?

[moextispicy]

[tolerates] Otherwise you die, of course.

[zettai]

... See, now I'm starting to regret not taking you up on that bet.

[moextispicy]

[giggles] It's a bit of an upturn, nipa~

[zettai]

I guess twists make a game more interesting.

[moextispicy]

It's a more even game now. [giggles] And you enjoyed it, didn't you?

[zettai]

... [pouts] It would've been more fun if he'd put up a better fight.

[moextispicy]

[for the record, after her argument with Takano, Rika has decided - purely coincidentally! - to explore the more exotic alcohols supplied at the banquet. Absinthe looks interesting, really]

[zettai]

[sneaking up from behind and draping] What are you up to?

[moextispicy]

Trying absinthe.

[zettai]

I think that's a little strong for you.

[moextispicy]

But you're even supposed to water it.

[velocivector]

[Has just come back from putzing around with the computery stuff when he spots her at the banquet. With the Moulin Rouge of booze.

To be a responsible semi-adult, or not? Decisions.]

[moextispicy]

[but it's good booze. Though the power of the depressed mood she's projecting probably is distracting from that.]

[velocivector]

[Heads on over. He leans casually against the edge of the table and reaches for some fancy hors d'oeuvre, waiting till he's tried some to speak up.]

Shitty night?

[moextispicy]

[shrugs] Some are.

[moextispicy]

[gigglegiggle] Wow, we were really wrong the first round.

[zettai]

I don't even know what happened!

[moextispicy]

Tch. They shouldn't have eaten from the clue.

[zettai]

Well, yeah. But they've been down on their luck from the very first round. Guess it was no use going up against Tiffany.

[moextispicy]

Tch. They should have worked harder on not going up against her in the first place.
