[Phone - an advertisement]Homecoming's this weekend, right? So I'm gonna assume most of the girls have already gotten yourselves dates or are just going with friends. I figure you've all got dresses or have that pony making 'em. But what about the other stuff? The whole pretty package just ain't quite right without the finishing touches, ze

-And Patchy is completely unsuspecting. She's lost in a book. Like always.-

[adropofjupiter]

[Marisa lets herself into the room and sets the tray down.]

Whatcha reading, Beautiful?

[wizardoftheweek]

Ah, Marisa...

I was reading Cinderella, of all things.

[adropofjupiter]

How amusingly fitting~

[After musing to herself, she pours two cups and then settles down behind Patchouli so the wizard can lean back if she wants and offers a cup.]

Can I get you to close the book for a bit?

[wizardoftheweek]

-Patchouli nodded, closing the book to take the offered tea as she leaned against the other girl, letting out a content sigh.- You seem to have something on your mind this time, hmm?

[adropofjupiter]

Mhmm. [Marisa idly twirls a bit of Patchy's hair about her finger as she takes a sip of tea.]

I want you to come to Homecoming with me. Be my date and make me the luckiest girl in the school?

[wizardoftheweek]

-SIIIIGH. She saw this coming.-

Must I?

[adropofjupiter]

[Marisa rests her chin on Patchy's shoulder.]

Not gonna force you to, ze. But I'll be all sad and stuff if I'm there all alone.

You can bring a book and I'll request only one dance. Maybe we can even leave early since I ain't gonna be queen or anything like that...

Please?

[wizardoftheweek]

You drive an exceptionally hard bargain...

[adropofjupiter]

You'll get to see me all dressed up, shining like a star. And you'll get to say, "See her? She's mine."

[wizardoftheweek]

... Fine. -If anyone had asked, this would have gone a lot longer...-

To think I let you butter me up like this...

[adropofjupiter]

[happy kiss on the cheek!]

It's part of my charm, ze~

[wizardoftheweek]

-Grumble grumble.- It's part of something, at least...

I suppose I'll need to talk to Meiling and Sakuya about preparations.

[adropofjupiter]

That's probably a good idea. Well, Sakuya. Not so sure about Meiling, ze. She'll probably be able to pay for a dress. Just make sure to tell me the color when you decide so I can get the right flowers.

[wizardoftheweek]

You can probably guess what sort of color I'm going to prefer...

[adropofjupiter]

I can, but I like to be sure, ze. [soft smile] We're gonna have so much fun. Thanks.
