03 [Accidental Video]
[[The video starts with the image jostling a bit, a dark-haired teenagers familiar for his glaring coming into view over it. He isn't looking at the screen, though, and it becomes apparent that the SC is sitting on the bedside table next to a bed containing a certain redhead.]]
Moron. [[Fakir is pinching the bridge of his nose.]] I hope you understand now why I didn't want you to go to that stupid thing.
[ Ahiru is sitting up in the bed, her legs outstretched in front of her and looking sulky. Her right leg--or more specifically, her right ankle, has a bandaged wrapped numerous times around it. She doesn't even look at Fakir when she speaks. ]
...No. All I did was trip. Myself. Nobody tripped me!
[ One set of her fingers clenches into the bedding. ]
And I coulda gone back to see the rest if you weren't such a jerk about it!
[[Fakir scowls.]]
You got hurt because you were distracted by something stupid, and there were a million things like that around that place. And you weren't fit to walk. You couldn't have gone back anyway.
[ Crossing her arms, she puffs her cheeks out and looks away from him. She hasn't seemed to have spotted the device yet. ]
I do that kind of thing all the time! Even back home! And I don't want to hear anything from YOU. You--went and FOLLOWED me! And you were rude to Ed!
You're never cautious enough, and that injury is proof of that! I wasn't about to let you go off with a bunch of strangers in a place like that.
[[He snorts derisively at the allusion to his manners, but doesn't offer any further comment.]]
Oh---SO WHAT. It's not like anybody attacked me, like YOU were expecting!
[ She turns to face him again, obviously displeased. ]
And I had fun! ...Until YOU showed up, anyway!
[[He all but snarls at her.]]
And if someone had attacked you, what then? You don't even have anyone to wield you, and you wouldn't even have noticed anything was wrong until it was too late to run away. Amusement isn't worth that.
You're just---paranoid! Nobody was gonna attack me! If everything was always about the ifs and stuff, I'd never get anywhere or do anything!
[ She glares at him. ]
I don't wanna talk to you, so go away!
You're not prepared for anything, you idiot! Even if nobody attacked you, you didn't have any regard for your own safety. You're too careless.
[[He stands his ground, hands fisting at his sides.]]
Just listen to me for once.
[ Ahiru quite visibly bristles, her face getting a little red. ]
ALL I DID WAS SLIP! 'Cause I'm CLUMSY, okay? I already know that! Doesn't mean I'm careless!
[[Fakir glowers.]]
It means you can't take care of yourself! What would you do in any situation of immediate danger?
[ She opens her mouth and closes it a few times in rapid succession. ]
That doesn't----We're going to school here so we're learning stuff about that! I can take care of myself just FINE! You should just---mind your own business!
[[Fakir is quiet for a moment, glaring down at Ahiru with something that could definitely be called petulance in his expression.]]
... No. You need to be looked-after. This place is dangerous in ways home never was. You don't even have a Meister to weild you--you wouldn't be able to do anything in a fight, even if you knew how.
[ Her eyes narrow back at him before--with surprising speed--she reaches behind her for one of the pillows she's propped up against and sends it flying at his face. ]
I didn't even tell you that you could come in here! So you and all your dumb lectures can get out!
Wha--
[[Fakir almost doesn't quite react in time. The pillow smacks him in the face just as he raises his arms to block it, and then falls down into the waiting outstretched arms. The glare revealed when the pillow falls away could probably cut through steel.]]
I'm not going anywhere, so you can forget it!
[ Ahiru quickly turns away from him and toward the window, lips pursed. She says nothing---clearly showing that she's through with listening to him. ]
[[Fakir's jaw clenches, and he stands where he is for a moment, pillow still in his arms.]]
... Idiot.
[[Then, he crosses the small space between the bed and where he's standing, and shoves the pillow into her arms.]]
If you won't let me look after you get a partner!
[ She only accepts the pillow long enough to grab the corner and whack him in the head with it. ]
Don't tell me what to do! I'll find one when I find one! It's not your business!
[ And she hits him with the fluffy weapon again. ]
[[He grabs the end of the pillow as she whacks him with it, scowling.]]
When you find one? How long is that going to be?
[ She pulls against it, scowling up at him with clenched teeth. ]
I SAID it's none of your business!
[[He pulls back, keeping it as taut as it's possible to keep a pillow.]]
I'm not standing by and letting things happen to you!
[ She gives it a sharp yank in her direction. ]
That has nothing to do with me finding a partner! I said I can take care of myself and I don't need you nagging me about it every chance you GET!
[[At first, Fakir pulls the pillow back in his direction, but then he seems to snap. Scowling fiercely, he shoves it back at her and lets go.]]
Moron! Your safety is my business, and if I have to be your Meister to look after it, fine!
[ Unprepared for that, she flops over on her side with a squeak, moving her bad ankle in the process. Her face is lost somewhere behind the pillow. ]
OW---You jerk! Who said I wanted to be your partner!? You can't just decide that!
Hey--watch your foot, idiot!
[[He scowls down at the pillow.]]
You won't do it?
You're the one who knocked me over, you--!
[ She finally rights herself somewhat, perching up on one arm and hair touseled a bit as she glares back at him. ]
You said you wanted a---a--practical weapon! Like a sword or something! You're just doing this to be annoying and have an excuse to follow me around more!
Hmph. Spears are practical enough in general. I'll have to be careful not to get you caught on anything, but I'll manage.
[ For a moment, she can only sputter unintelligibly. Clearly, she wasn't expecting this. ]
Partners have to--to work together, you know! You can't just boss me around!
[[He almost deadpans, but there's a bit of a glare in his expression.]]
That would be impossible considering that you never listen to me anyway.
[ She turns away again, pouting and re-crossing her arms. ]
You know what I mean! Don't act like a jerk all the time just cause I don't agree with you being paranoid about everything.
Idiot. I wouldn't have to if you weren't so--
[[He cuts off, his eye drawn to the SC. He stares at it for a moment, seeming to realize something, and then curses under his breath and snatches up the device to turn it off. The feed ends.]]
[[Cut for length. Fakir is green, Ahiru is red. After this log. XD;;]]
