TWO ♠ [during free time] video | action for the Gryffs

[gurenpiloting]

[On-screen is an annoyed Kallen, who can be seen in the Gryffindor common room with a thick blanket wrapped around her body. What's most noticeable about her are some of her vibrant red strands that stick up like a sore thumb. Her eyebrows scrunch up as she takes a few puffs of breath while the hold on her wand tightens. Right in front of her is a

action;

[transmutates]

[ From behind a stack of books because keeping up with extra classes is a pain. He's also sitting as close to the fire as possible because he's ridiculously cold as well. ]

It's not just the cold that pisses me off. Have you been able to sleep at all?

[ A pause as he pulls his robes around him a bit more. ]

As for the cake, why not just have the house elves make one for you? Or you could ask them.

[gurenpiloting]

Only a little bit, but that's because I had extra blankets to keep me warm.

[She looks rather apprehensive.]

I could, but I'd rather make one from scratch... it's a special occasion, see.

action;

[transmutates]

[ Shivers, gritting his teeth a little. Kallen's lucky. He has two hunks of metal fused to his body which can make the rest of him very cold, very easily. ]

Lucky. Heh... What's the occasion?

[gurenpiloting]

[Aww. :( There's a moment of sheepishness as she smiles faintly.]

Don't tell anyone about this, okay? It's a birthday present.

[Video]

[flamenoir]

You're cold? The weather isn't bothering me.

[video]

[gurenpiloting]

Really, Blackfire? You must have thicker skin or something.

[video]

[flamenoir]

I've always been able to handle the cold pretty well.

[video]

[gurenpiloting]

You must live in a cold environment if you can handle it so well...

video on her end

[gurenpiloting]

It's only on rare circumstances that I get like this. Even a soldier has to do normal things once in a while.

[gurenpiloting]

Please, you're making it sound like I'll walk around in aprons and pearl necklaces all day.

[A chuckle.]

I'm just a regular student who happens to learn magic now.

[zeros_requiem]

[Ah, her again... which, given the last time they talked...

Yeah. He should just do the smart thing and just pass her by quietly, and head back to his warm bed, but there are some things that need to be dealt with. Best to make this as quick as possible.]

Kouzuki.

action forever

[gurenpiloting]

[Suzaku is about the last person she wants to talk to right now, but she can't help to spare him a narrowed glance as she's done shaping a five-pound rock into a dumbbell.]

What?

[zeros_requiem]

[He folds his arms. More as a measure against the coldness creeping into his bones than the coldness from her. Either way, he decides to skip any preamble and just get into it and get it over with.]

I want to apologize, for the things I said the other day. I-- [No. No excuses and no explanations.] It was stupid and insensitive and... I'm sorry.

[The words are sincere, but that's about as far as he's willing to go with this. She can either accept it or reject it, but either way, he's not going to beg for forgiveness.]

[gurenpiloting]

Is that all?

[So he apologized, after all. Loosening the hold on her wand, the intense look on her face softens for a moment as she glances away.]

Suzaku, I...

[She lets out a sigh. Saying "I forgive you" shouldn't be hard, right?]

Just don't insult me like that again.

[action]

[gurenpiloting]

[She quirks an eyebrow, cocking her head at his direction.]

You call this a lot?

[action]

[gurenpiloting]

I beg to differ.

[She wraps her blanket just a bit tighter around herself, shivering.]
