Closed Log: Hilda and N

[singularjustice]

[ Ever since he had heard of the carnival in town, N had wanted to go. He remembered the one in Nimbasa with fondness, the foul memories of Team Plasma aside. But he had not wanted to go alone.

Now, however, Hilda was here and was willing to come with him. The thought excited him even more just because it was Hilda -- perhaps this could be better than Nimbasa. If only in a small way, maybe he could make up for everything he had done.

He waited by the gate, eyes turned upwards towards the Ferris Wheel that was slowly turning, its blinking lights already on. ]

Very cool! Look at that one -- it makes us look huge!

Does this mirror make me look fat? [ She's joking, but for the love of all things holy: do not say yes. ]

[singularjustice.livejournal.com]

[ What, this is a trick question? Someone has no survival skills. ]

Yeah! And shorter, too.

1/4 I think

[whitesout.livejournal.com]

[ 'Yeah' ]

[ This earns N a light jab to the shoulder. ]

Wroong answer!

[singularjustice.livejournal.com]

[ ...what. ]

...but it does.

When a girl asks if something makes her look fat, the answer is always 'No'.

[singularjustice.livejournal.com]

...even if it does?

[whitesout.livejournal.com]

Pretty much!

[singularjustice.livejournal.com]

Why?

[whitesout.livejournal.com]

It's kinda insulting otherwise.

[singularjustice.livejournal.com]

Oh! I'm sorry.

[whitesout.livejournal.com]

Apology accepted! I wasn't really serious when I asked in the first place.

Now, let's keep going!

[singularjustice.livejournal.com]

Then why did you ask?

[ He will follow along, however. ]

[whitesout.livejournal.com]

For fun, mostly.

[singularjustice.livejournal.com]

But how's it fun when my answer makes you mad?

[whitesout.livejournal.com]

[ A shrug. Girls, how do they work? ]

[singularjustice.livejournal.com]

[ N really doesn't know. ]

Um, where do you want to go to next?

[whitesout.livejournal.com]

I'll let you decide.

[singularjustice.livejournal.com]

...could we ride the Ferris Wheel?

[ It is only to be expected. N really does love them. ]

[whitesout.livejournal.com]

Sure!

[ She actually feels a little ambivalent, considering the circumstances surrounding last time they went for a ride. But that was then, this is now. That lingering discomfort from last time shouldn't resurface now. ]

Let's go.

[ N smiles brightly and heads out the door, making a beeline straight for the Ferris Wheel. ]

[whitesout.livejournal.com]

[ She follows just a few steps behind him, dismissing that slight discomfort that churned in her stomach. This time will be a better experience for both of them, she's sure of it. ]
