The Boardwalk, Saturday Mid-Afternoon

[dojima_hime]

Dōjima was looking pale but determined as she set-up the presentation space.  She'd been shooed out of the clinic at some point to 'go eat', and this seemed as good a way to repress as any.  If she was not allowed to go find and kill this Tybalt, she'd settle for channeling her rage into a more, ah, 'productive' manner.  Like making sure her

Skip the Lecture!

[dojima_hime]

For those crashing the Boardwalk after R&D do their speech. However, sexiness still abounds! Maybe if you ask nicely, they'll let you have a leftover goodie bag.

After the lecture, Reno was there. Sitting on the Boardwalk, holding his sides, and supremely and utterly failing at stifling his laughter.

... But at least he was quiet about it?

It was possible that he was the most cranky laughing kid in the world, just then.

Yurika made a beeline over to her partner-in-crime once she'd finished helping people. "Do we need to get you to the clinic?" she asked quietly, looking around for the Pink Bitch.

Reno looked somewhat helplessly at Dojima, giving a shrug of his shoulders as he opened his mouth to reply.

His response, unfortunately, was not only entirely muted, but cut off very quickly by the onset of another burst of laughter that caused him to double over.

He didn't find it very funny at all, really. Though, if it wasn't permanent, it would have been totally worth it for the opportunity to snark at the Pink Prude.

His giggles, mind you, were starting to be a little on the manic side.

"Hold up the box of male condoms for yes, female condoms for no," she suggested dryly, sitting down next to him. "Next time Rikku starts giving us the 'shut up' gestures, I vote we consider it."

"Any clue who the bitch was?"

Re: Skip the Lecture!

[raspberryturk]

Reno held up both boxes of condoms in a gesture which was possibly maybe, or possibly yes, he was pretty sure he was going to laugh himself to death, and if he remained here and continued, then it would be a demise most welcome.

And then he dropped both boxes for another peal of forced, silent laughter.

And then he shook his head, no. Bitch was just crazy, he figured.

Rikku rolled her eyes. "Entirely your fault," she said. "I warned you. Repeatedly. She's crazy. You're lucky she didn't do worse."

Re: Skip the Lecture!

[raspberryturk]

Reno was going to pull his best attempt at a mid-giggle pouty face.

All things considered, he did a decent job at pulling it off before shrugging in a gesture that very much indicated, provided this was not a permanent predicament, that mouthing off at the crazy bitch had been totally, totally worth it.

"It wouldn't be if she'd put your knees on backwards," Rikku snapped. "Which is what she did to me, last summer. Other people got it worse."

Re: Skip the Lecture!

[raspberryturk]

.... Knees? Backwards?

Okay. That would make things like walking kind of difficult.

Reno showed his disdain for this notion with a very solemn fit of giggles before clapping his hands over his mouth and attempting to perhaps kill the laughter with a few deep breaths.

Deep breaths, as fate would have it, were very good for that throw-your-head-back-and-howl sort of laughter.

Dammit.

"I fell down a lot," Rikku grimaced. "But it didn't actually hurt, aside from the falling-down, which made it way better than what some other people went through. She's psycho. She could have messed you up pretty badly."

Re: Skip the Lecture!

[raspberryturk]

Reno's laughter might have sounded a little like pathetic whimpering, had it any sound to it at all.

He'd have taken jelly legs over this laughing junk, any day.

So he nodded in agreement- whoever this woman was, she was freaking nuts- and he grabbed the nearest rock and gave it a sullen sort of toss down the boardwalk.

She sat down next to him with a huff. "Principal, last year. She knew Hermione, from before. Crazy rules, and discipline, and if you stood up to her, she got violent." She shrugged, awkwardly. "It started with hexes and then it got really scary. Sam had to talk me out of going after her."

Re: Skip the Lecture!

[raspberryturk]

The look Reno gave to Rikku stated perhaps very clearly that, after the whole Hades fiasco, he was starting to seriously speculate as to if the school board was just trying to get them killed.

And also, it stated quite well that, if she could kindly beat him on the head until he lost consciousness, he'd appreciate it very much. Heeeee.

Re: Skip the Lecture!

[the_merriest]

"Well why do you think I was trying to get you to shut up?" Rikku huffed. "I wasn't worried about her having a fainting spell. You never behave in public. And no, deal with it. Maybe next time you'll think instead of mouthing off to crazy witches when your girlfriend is telling you not to be an idiot."

Re: Skip the Lecture!

[raspberryturk]

Reno had to admit, Rikku was speaking sense, here.

He gave a bit of a frustrated shake of his head before slamming his fist down against the boards he was sitting on.

And then he laughed a very pained sort of laugh. Ow. Ow. Ow.
