[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. ]]

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.]

[adorabilities]

[after her two 30s-- she's gonna go for a 50. now that there is opportunity.]

Neck and neck.

[she has no clue how competition between the two of them works]

[purrrnicious]

Don't get excited, you're still 30 behind.

[Shoots –– and scores a 30. So now she's at 170.]

[adorabilities]

For now.

[she aims for another 50.]

Anything could happen.

[purrrnicious]

[Lashes her tail!! And jabs Adora in the side right when she's doing her roll.]

[adorabilities]

[AND THEN SHE GETS A 20--]

Hey!

[purrrnicious]

Wow. Focus, Adora.

[Rolls for a 50 :)]

[adorabilities]

[she wants to strangle her, so badly.

she is pretty sure she can't win, but she's going to go for a 100 anyway.

and for her effort, she gets a 10.]

Ughhhhh.

[purrrnicious]

[Breaks into squeaky laughter instead of taking another shot.

Whoops she's buzzed already after just two drinks.]

[adorabilities]

You did this!

[note to future self, don't take a bet like this with catra. just don't do it.]

Take your shot already!

[she nudges her with her shoulder]

[purrrnicious]

[Rolls it lazily to score a 10 and she don't even care.]

[adorabilities]

[WELL. guess she's doing whatever Live Kohime wants.]

Next time, I'm picking the game.

[purrrnicious]

Pff, come on, don't be a baby! Shouldn't you be able to perform in all scenarios?

[adorabilities]

Oh, is that what that was? I had no clue.

But I made a bet.

You won.

[purrrnicious]

I did?






[what]

[adorabilities]

[she points at the score]

You did.
