[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Who: King, Intensity and you
Where: Somewhere outside but near the hotel
When: Day 277

[ Look. Up in the sky. Is it a bird? Is it a plane?

No. That is two loud teens on top of dragons (one magical and one mechanical) with matching Duel Disks (red and blue) playing a children's card game at 500 feet with larger than life holograms.

Just yugioh things.

There’s also something strange about the wardrobe-- Intensity is wearing this elaborate setup, while King is looking more like the Egyptian Pharaoh in his memories.

And what exactly does dueling look like? Well a lot of posturing like this: King vs. Intensity ]

[[ ooc: This is a rival marriage! But also a Live (HSS Show off and FiN presentation - a play-by-play on why paladins are better at card games) so come gawk, heckle, get points, or all of the above! Feel free to top level for the duel. ]]

Uh, yeah, you're not drinking.

[She's gonna try to take that wine away.]

I think I've had more than enough of the dumb, loopy version of Adora for now.

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[adorabilities]

Oh-- So that's drunk... Well. Okay.

[but now she has nothing to do-- except stare at some of the arcade games]

Guess I'm not drinking.

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[purrrnicious]

[Tosses it back herself.]

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[adorabilities]

-- What are you doing? You just said that makes you loopy!

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[purrrnicious]

[Smugly, because it's dawned on her at some point that she knows more stuff than Adora now.]

Some of us actually know what we're doing, Adora.

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[adorabilities]

What do you mean "you know what you're doing?"

[she knows what she's doing.]

I've been practicing at video games, you know.

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[purrrnicious]

Oh come on, Adora. You've been practicing at games, and that's supposed to impress me?

[Swishing her tail.]

I mean, you're going to have to do better than that.

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[adorabilities]

Yeah, well... I bet I could beat you.

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[purrrnicious]

[Narrows her eyes.]

You wish. Bet what?

1/2

[adorabilities]

[actually, what is good betting currency.

probably total embarrassment, right? or chores, except neither of them apply...]

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[adorabilities]

[and then it hits her.]

If I win, you have to do a Live with me my way.

If you win, then I guess I'll do a Live your way.

[she needs points]

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[purrrnicious]

. . .

Fine. But I'm not dressing up in anything weird or something dumb like that.

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[adorabilities]

Well, you'll just have to not lose so you'll never find out what "my way" is, won't you?

[this is the smoothest lie she will ever manage]

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[purrrnicious]

[Rolls her eyes.]

Whatever, Adora. Come on already.




[Seizes her by the ponytail to something that requires real world hand-eye coordination, like skeeball. You know, so she'll be on an even playing field, maybe even at advantage.]

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[adorabilities]

Wh-- Hey! I'm coming, you don't have to pull.

[her suave presentation, ruined.]

Wait... this one?

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[purrrnicious]

What's the matter, princess? Didn't practice this one? Or are you disappointed it's not something you can just punch your way through?

[Is that an edge to her tone

maybe no?

Probably no.



Nah, you definitely imagined it.]

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[adorabilities]

[she rolls her eyes]

I can handle this. Easy.

[she's not dumb enough to ignore the edge, and definitely not to ignore the 'princess.']

And don't call me 'princess.'

Re: [Afterwards - The "reception"]

[purrrnicious]

[Barks a laugh that she cuts off abruptly before it can become something that sounds a little too close to hysterical.

And then grabs another glass of wine and tosses that back to help with the whole aggressively pretending this is fine and she can totally handle this thing.

She's cool Adora's cool everyone's cooooooooool.]

I'll even let you go first.

1/2

[adorabilities]

[kohime...

are you okay-- she tries not to be too obvious when she looks at her.]

Alright. Watch, I totally got this.

[adorabilities]

[then she goes and she picks up the first ball, tossing it up lightly for a moment-- and then rolling it up.

she can hit the center fine, but the two top micro holes are probably way beyond her capability]

See? Told you.

[purrrnicious]

[Rolls the ball with a casual flick of her wrist and scores a perfect '100'.

Maybe it's luck or maybe it's skill and her drinks haven't hit her yet but either way, she gives a pleased little prrrt.]

[adorabilities]

... Oh.

[huh.]

How long until the loopy part typically hits...?

[purrrnicious]

What, you think I don't know what I'm doing? Your turn, dummy.

[adorabilities]

Juuuust checking.

[but that's fine-- she's going to go for the center again. play it safe, for now.]

[purrrnicious]

[Shoots –– and only manages a 40 this time.

Hm.]
