WOOOO

[kyudousha]

[The lecture was boring, but she found some sense of satisfaction in the completion of it. She's never attended university -- never bothered, when she already knew that she was smarter than half the faculty and far more talented than the other half -- and while the building itself isn't anything worth looking at, the very fact that she is within the walls of the university itself brings a sense of excitement to her very being.

She is typing in a long string of commands to the projector, clearing the pathways and upgrading systems with the entering of a few keys. It's her way of relieving stress, she knew, and it's also her way of taking up time in wait of something. Perhaps praise, perhaps simply keeping her busy until everyone else has left the room and she is free to go away from prying eyes.

She likes the fact that they have their eyes on her, but now that she is finished with her lecture, she would like for them to quietly turn away so she can research in piece.

However, what she doesn't expect is the figure of a certain boy standing in the door way, holding... something in his hands. She does a double take, and reddens immediately.

Her fingers freeze.

And she can only stare.]

[Oh.

Well.

She, uh...saw him.

Here's Atsuro, his face turning a similar shade of red. And stopping. And realising he looks really out of place. Maybe he should have gone with his normal clothes after all. Or maybe his school uniform. Or maybe a suit?

....Or would that have been too formal?

WELL EITHER WAY he can't just stand here forever and the room's pretty much empty by now so he walks in with a ton of confidence he doesn't necessarily feel and a congratulatory smile on his face.]

How'd it go?

[He'll be coming up to you know, handing you the box. Totally not a peace offering. At all.]

[kyudousha]

[She bristles slightly, but the redness of her face deepens. Taking the gift gingerly -- it's around now that she wishes the ground would just open up and swallow her already because akldfa;s.

... a heavy pause. She ignores his question as though it were something obvious.]

... I thought I told you not to come.

...........WHAT'S WITH THE FIRECRACKERS DOWN THERE? >[

[47_l0w]

[A laugh.]

I guess it went well, then!

[A few nervous movements as he raises one hand to the back of his head.] Hehe...It looked liked you were done, so I just, well, dropped by. [He's doing his best to sound casual, and it may or may not be working. There's a tint of something careful in there, as if he's searching for a sign that maybe she doesn't mind him here, maybe a tiny bit of approval.

SO THAT BOX. There are things like.....idk SOME SORT OF SOMARIUM CANDY/CHOCOLATE THAT RITA REALLY LIKES? =D]

I got that on the way here. [Gesturing towards the box.] Thought you might like it. [AS IF THIS WASN'T PLANNED OUT AT ALL. Nope.]

LET'S GO JOIN THEM SOON XDDD

[kyudousha]

[... she doesn't buy that for a second. She really doesn't. But he seems to be trying hard at it, and... well, after spending months tolerating this guy, she doesn't have the heart to shove his face out the door and into a wall somewhere for staring at her like that. Like he's... searching for something. She doesn't like that look because it makes her feel irrationally guilty, and she doesn't know why.

A long pause in which she stares at the box as though it contained something with teeth before she... opens it.

And closes it.

A deep blush settles itself over her face, and she turns away.]

... stupid. You didn't have to.

LET'S \o/

[47_l0w]

[He sees that blush, Rita, he really does. And maybe he turns a little pink at the edges of his face and okay maybe his ears are more than just a little pink. But he's glad you like them?

=)]

Hehe, but I wanted to! [pause. WELL TIME TO BRING UP DINNER.] Oh, since I'm here and all, wanna go grab something to eat before you go home? Kinda like a celebration! [Please say yes please say yes please say yes-]

[kyudousha]

[She huffs at this, because, well, she's never hungry, really. A shrug. She doesn't seem interested.]

Later. I have other things to attend to. Wait here.

[And she walks off, leaving him behind. Socializing time?]

[47_l0w]

[Sighhh =(]

Alright.

[He waits. And then he doesn't wait!

lalala insert all threads below here [ ]

And eventually they clear up whatever else is happening?]

Ready to go?

[kyudousha]

[Lalala this is her looking vaguely disgruntled with vague hand gestures blah blah blah something about morons okay done.]

... what?

[47_l0w]

[sdilfsjdfaksdjflkdfsd why was this so difficult.]

Umm, for dinner!

[kyudousha]

[...oh.

Huh.

She suddenly stops in her tracks. Repeats.]

... right. Dinner.

... I didn't... did I... yes?

[47_l0w]

[Sighh his girlfriend needs to take better care of herself ;;]

You haven't eaten yet, right? And since you're done here, let's go somewhere else. [Just the two of us hmm~] I, uh, booked us reservations at a place I think you'd like!

[kyudousha]

Wait. If you were just 'dropping by', why the hell would there be a reservation?

[47_l0w]

[jsdklgja;ldksgmjkldjf;sjf;lsdfjsdlkfj he slipped up. /sob girlfriend why so perceptive.]

Ah, I, uh, on the way here...!

[kyudousha]

[She's a genius, man. :|]

So basically, you already knew you were coming well in advance.

Let me remind you that I told you not to come. What part of that didn't you understand?

[47_l0w]

Well, no, just- [yeah he's probably not going to talk his way out of this is he? =(]

O-okay, but I still thought that dinner or something would be nice. A, uh, little celebration, or something. I really think that you'll like the place.
