Pretty Pretty Princess: Redux

[enterstageleft]

Who: Those Who Play Games
Where: The Game Tower
When: Day 300

[ Today you step out of the elevators and into the game room to find yourselves in an airy Grand Ballroom. Maybe, if you've been here long enough--you might recognize this room?

At the front of the room is a buffet table featuring finger sandwiches, petit fours, and savory pastries as well as a variety of small desserts complemented by bottoms-up turned teacups and steaming hot kettles set up for self-serve. From nowhere to be seen comes the sound of instruments playing. Up above, tethered to the ceiling, are what appear to be long curtains. …

The small, square tables feature place cards that as of yet are mysteriously empty, but other than that--there is nothing on the table. Those who have walked in and might prefer to walk out again will find they are mysteriously barred from exiting…. ]

CEO: Because you were practically limping.
CEO: How about that?

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

Kohime: im fine

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

CEO: Then tell me where you are.

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

Kohime: at the hotel, outside on a ledge on the top floor

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[She'll probably hear Blue Eyes coming long before she sees her (and Intensity).]

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

[She is perched on a ledge, just like she said, knees drawn up to her chest and ears flat.]

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Just plops down next to her like he owns the place, legs dangling over the edge of the roof.]

So.

Scale of 1-10.

How fine are you?

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

Don't––don't tell me what to do. Because then I have to do it.




[Which is somewhat an answer on the 'how fine are you' question, too.]

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Ah. I see.

... That seems to be a fan favorite as of late.

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

Yeah, well, guess they want to shake up the torture now and then.

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

You're staying pretty close to the hotel with that kind of effect hanging around.

Waiting for someone?

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

It's fine. No one ever comes out here. No one really can other than Avante and Zrael, anyway.

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Heart and FiN have flying companions. Or at least the clever ones do.

Food for thought.

[Not that he looks too concerned]

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

Yeah, I don't think anyone on Future is going to come snipe me off the side of the building.

And Heart is a bunch of cowards, they won't do anything direct.

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Makes a noncommittal sound at that]

Anyone I should but in my grudge book then? For making you do something you didn't want to do.

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

No, it's just little stuff. Nothing on purpose. I'm just––staying away, and it's fine.

[She gestures to the whole hanging out on the outside of a building situation.]

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Normally staying away usually means the opposite of fine.

But considering your delicate situation at the moment, I'm not asking.

[And reaches into his coat to pull out a poker deck]

Care for a card game?

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

A card game? Which one?

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Go fish.

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

. . .

This isn't a joke about that dumb game with the squares, is it?

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Laughs]

No.

This is the first game I taught FiN once I had enough points to purchase a pack of cards.

Unfortunately, no actual fish are involved.

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

. . .

Okay, fine. If I win, you lock your newest member out of the dorm for the night.




[You know. Just for fun.]

1/2

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

. . .




That's Adora.

Re: ENDGAME

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

If you wanted me to send her your way, you could just say so.

Re: ENDGAME

[purrrnicious]

Is it? Huh.

I never said I was taking in strays.
