[oo5] Accidental video

[mauvesympathy]

Soul.

[The video right now is half obscured, chilling in the pocket of Soul's jacket on the floor of his room. Soul can just barely been seen, and it looks like he's searching for something.]

I'm just going to ignore you like usual, y'know. Just because I can hear you outside of my head too doesn't mean I'm gonna start listening to you more.

You

Comments

Action;

[oglogoth]

[[...there's a tentative knock. And the sounds of purring outside his door.]]

...Soul?

Action;

[mauvesympathy]

[It's great that his ducklings are worried, but jeez, why now. ;A;

He shoves the bubble as far into the closet as he can, and closes the door, hoping it'll stay in there.]

... Yeah, Rose? What's up?

[Not opening the bedroom door, of course.
...
And the closet door is straining. 8|a]

Action;

[oglogoth]

...Do you.

I take it you are arguing with that bubble, aren't you?

[[Soul? Hers is just as vocal, easily heard through the door.]]

You shouldn't stick your noooose in his business mroow~!

[[And although you can't see or hear it, she's cringing and gritting her teeth.]]

Action;

[mauvesympathy]

[ ... She's dealing with the same thing. :|a

So, when the closet door slides open enough to send the bubble back out -- and hit Soul in the face, of course -- he just... gives up, for the most part.]

... Yeah. I am.

That was the stupidest thing you've done all day, you know. It's pretty obvious that was going to happen.

And I don't care if you wanna come in or anything.

[Yup, totally ignoring the ogre. 8|a]

Action;

[oglogoth]

[[Rose doesn't answer, but her bubble does.]]

Well you coouuullld go in~ He did inviiite you after all, mrow~ But then he could hear meeeee~

I kno-

But if you doooon't he might feel baaaad~ Mrrooow~

I really doubt he woul--

You don't know thaaat~ You don't know anythiiiing~

[[And into the room she goes, door nearly slamming behind her. Her little thought bubble has a pleasant looking siamese kitten, who seems preoccupied with her own tail. For the moment anyway.]]

God this is so stupid.

Only because you're uncomfuuuurrrtable~

[[Just. Burying her face in her hands.]]

Action;

[mauve_sympathy]

...

[This could possibly be the most sympathetic look he has ever given you, Rose. He's juuust about to go give you a hug or put a hand on your shoulder or something, before --]

She's just like Maka, hmm? This is the girl that doesn't hurt you, right? And she can wield you.
A Meister who wouldn't hurt you would be much better suited for your tastes --

Shut up.

[Soul swings an arm at the bubble, just knocking it around.]

You already know I don't pull that shit.

Action;

[oglogoth]

[[Peeking out of her hands, she watches, offering you both a sympathetic and curious look.]]

Meeee~? I couldn't pawwwssibly substitute for Maka though. You wouldn't want me~ Mrow! Too small and weak!

No, shut up.

Telling the bubble to shut up won't help~ The one thiiiing you know, and you don't even liiiisten to it~

[[Yup, it's getting a good shove too, which just makes the kitty hiss.]]

Soul, you don't happen to know why we have these, do you?

Suuuurely you do~ You know sooo much more than I doooo~

Action;

[mauvesympathy]

Small, but definitely not weak. A perfect substitute.

[Soul lets the comment brush off his shoulder, obviously pretending he couldn't hear it.]

... I don't, really.

It's probably just this city fucking us over.

Always going with the simple answers to lifes mysteries. You think you'd learn by now.
For all you know, this could just be a hallucination.

I think I'd know if I went mad.

Action;

[oglogoth]

He doesn't know! Seeee? You shouldn't have asked! His bubble teased him, and it's your fault~ And no, puuurrrfect certainly isn't the word to use here. Youuu would be closer with terrible~

Oh my god will you ever stop?! [[Another swat to the bubble.]]

You already tried that, you moronic little girl! It didn't work laaaast time, remember? Or is your memory faaailing you too~? Mrow!

Uuuugh. The city though? Why would the city do this to us? I was under the impression it needed us. Why in the world would it fuck with us?

Action;

[mauvesympathy]

I've got no clue, but it's dumb as hell and the faster we get out of this shithole, the better.

[It's. A little obvious that this is already wearing on his nerves. He lets out a sigh, and runs his hand through his hair.]

... Well, at least... the sooner these bubbles are gone.

I was about to mention how much you'd miss them. Good catch.

... Oh, now you're complimenting me. Thanks.

[He lets out another sigh, and takes a seat on the edge of the bed.]

Ignore that dumb cat, by the way. Letting it get the best of you won't help anything.

Because you would know, Soul.

Action;

[oglogoth]

Ignore it? Easy for you to say.

I've already had fuuurrrr too many purrrrrrsonal thoughts spilled into the open, after alll~ Mrow! Thiiings no one should eeefuuurrr know~

Okay, ignoring. Ignoring it. [[With a deep breath, she sighs, pointing to his bed.]]

May I sit down?

The bed seems a relatively safe topiiiic~ Of course, that's puuurrvided nothing lewd has gone on in it~ But then, Soul isn't neeeaarrrly as leeewwd as you are, huh Roooosie~?

...o-oh my god.

[[Face is back in her hands.]]

Action;

[mauvesympathy]

...

[Both the Little Ogre and Soul can't help just... blinking a bit in surprise.]

... Don't worry your little head, girl.
This boy has zip for libido and is a bigger prude than his granny.

[dshjkl;flgh]

.... Y-you can sit, I don't really care.

[he's just. facepalming. oh my god did you have to say that]

Action;

[oglogoth]

[[Nodding mutely, she moves to sit down.]]

It's more cuuuurriosity than worry~ After all, one's purrrrrsonal tendancies can lead to suuuuch a peek at their mental state~ Even in the most questionable of situationnss~ It's quite interrrresting what the ties between one's sexual life and their overall mental health can meaaan and beeee~

[[Yeah, she's regretting coming to see Soul more and more as time wears on.]]

Why can't I just tuuurrrn it off~? Why must it coooonnntinue on like this~? Because it's juuuust your luck to be stuck in this bubble! Stupid, stupid Rooooosie, you know that! Or you shoouuuld at least~

Action;

[mauvesympathy]

...

[Soul just silently loops an arm around her shoulders with a sigh. He's getting second hand embarrassment from this, so he can only imagine what it must be like first hand.]

Oh, don't pity the girl. Do you know how embarrassed she'll get?

I'm not pitying her. She doesn't need that.

Action;

[oglogoth]

Oooh, don't pity meee! I barely deserve sympathy! Don't mind me, Soul, I am simply going to sit heeere and despise Vatheon for all I'm worth~

[[Leaning into that arm around her shoulders. Yes. This is extremely embarrassing.]]

Action;

[mauvesympathy]

... I'm not pitying you, Rose.

You don't need it, anyway. [He ruffles her hair a little, with a sigh.]

You're a stronger girl than you give yourself credit for.
