Yuffie :7:

[Yuffie pokes her head into the living room. Her expression is a strange mixture of weariness, restless energy, and stubborn determination to stay cheerful

S-skinnydipping?

Isn't that-

[ Oh, look how red he is...! ]

A bit... improper?

[viva_la_materia]

Yeah, well, if we're not gonna be improper now, when are we, Cabbage Patch? [Yuffie grins and winks at him, acting much more daring than she feels and a little dizzy with it.]

[wyvernridesyou]

Ah- is it entirely necessary to be at all? I mean, keeping clothes on- well, they're warm and all, right?

[ bother him. he's all but begging for it, being all uptight like this~ ]

[viva_la_materia]

Oh, come on. [Yuffie plants her hands on her hips. She is not gonna let him check her momentum or she'll never do this.] The pool's inside! And it's heated, so you've got no excuse there, buster.

[Catching his hand, she starts to draw him along after her.] It'll be fun! You should bring your friend, I bet swimming is really therapeutic and stuff for sick people.

[allthatdies]

...That's an interesting thing to do at a time like this.

[rang_a_bell]

Breaking eggs? It's fun to make breakfast, but I don't think it's going to help us win the game...

[[ooc: this is me cursing the fact that I don't have Precis anymore, Yuffie would totally have a skinnydipping partner, lolol]]

[viva_la_materia]

Um. I think that metaphor might have got a little...mixy? [Yuffie scratches her cheek sheepishly.]

[rang_a_bell]

[...talking to herself a little bit] Well, counting eggs does get a little tiring after a while.

[snaps out of it!] Oh! ...Metaphor?

[viva_la_materia]

Yeah, you know, um...like in Important Novels and crap. You say one thing but you mean another... [Heck, they did not cover explaining rhetorical devices in ninja school--is a metaphor a rhetorical device? Yuffie ponders this briefly, then decides to cut the Gordian knot.]

Like, okay, I said eggs, but I meant people?

Now Topher's initiating the Yuffie abuse.

[geniustopher]

Fine, fine, you go. Makes me wish this was back home, so the hidden cameras everywhere would have a full recording, oh, wait, you're not categorized as a "hot chick", though since this isn't at work, it would be the perfect blackmail way to get back at the most annoyingly obstinate girl I've had to be around since Dr. Saunders, and she was tolerable enough until she started acting outside her job description, and I know exactly what her job description was, I made it.

Yuffie is busy seizing the day, Topher you knob. XP

[viva_la_materia]

Oh, stick your stupid cameras up your stupid ass. [The last thing she wants to waste precious time doing is fighting with him again. She hops onto a chair and strikes a heroic pose.]

I am the cutest ninja in Wutai and possibly on the Planet, and I am going swimming. Naked. Before we all die. So there. [She gives a giddy little snort of laughter, peels off her vest and tosses it at him, then hops nimbly off the chair and jogs away down the hall.]

Oh, Topher's going to needle her for his own amusement.

[geniustopher]

[Topher realizes he's still covered in Konata and Pikachu, so he follows right after her] If only you were about eight to ten years older, whoooo... oh, and glasses, for that whole librarian feel... gotta have glasses.

Re: Oh, Topher's going to needle her for his own amusement.

[viva_la_materia]

[A pair of khaki shorts flies back and smacks Topher in the face.]

[epicphale]

[Aziraphale is unfamiliar with the term 'skinnydipping', as his idea of being up to date in pop culture is listening to The Beatles and knowing what loafers are. In any case, it's not the sort of thing he goes out of his way to know. Thus, he blinks at Yuffie quizzically.]

I beg your pardon?

[viva_la_materia]

[She giggles, and waves gaily at him.] Hey, Mr. A! You want to come? You, uh, don't seem like the skinnydipping type...

[epicphale]

[Well, at least she seems to have warmed up to him. That's a good sign.] Er, hello there, Yuffie. What is it that you mean, exactly?

[viva_la_materia]

What, skinnydipping? [She blinks, then starts to grin.] I knew it! You've never gone!

[Well, not that Yuffie has, either--that's the point of doing it now--but she's still hypocritically amused.]
