i am a girlboss i am a war criminal i am a lunatic . i am clinically insane & the next virgin mary & i am never going to die

( so it's monday and she's in the nurse's office high as shit off painkillers and bored as hell so she will spam the network with dumb shit until someone indulges her. yeah )

Comments

( well, she is bold, to a degree. mostly verbally, but drugs help, when you want to make an impression. thank you, nurse-chan.

with an upper hand, though, she does grow more confident, grinning at his flustered expression. cute... he can tug his hand away, she'll allow this much, but she stays leaned forward, closer to where he sits. )

Hmm... I think I can tell that easily enough. ( creepy men have a certain vibe to them, you know. ) Sakkun doesn't seem like the type. Too polite.

( she's not gonna comment on the painkillers though cause. yeah. true. )

[crystallomancy]

( she's not wrong; there are people who'd probably beg to differ, but he is a perfectly polite young man. but being thrown off is momentary; now that she's let him go, even if she's leaning forward... he leans forward too, closing their gap a little more. )

Is that sense of yours fool-PROOF? ( softly. ) I'm a very adept liAR... How do you know I'm not just hiding my true naTURE?

[contrarily]

( no, you're not supposed to lean back, you're supposed to fumble and stumble back, listen!! she holds her position, though, stubbornly. )

I'm never wrong! ( she huffs. she's sometimes wrong. sometimes. ) Besides, I've met a lot of guys in my life, so I can tell the good from the bad.

( a fun game you can play during handshake events... )

[crystallomancy]

( she was a junior idol, so she probably isn't lying... it's cute that she's holding her position; he holds his, too. )

So have I, and some of them you'd never guess orchestrated the downfall of a generation of geniusES. ( ... ) Do you want to test your LUCK... Rika-chan?

[contrarily]

( when will he admit defeat smh... she leans a little closer, scoffing. )

... ( why tf u talking about eichi rn ) Why not? I think I've been pretty lucky so far. ♪

( not really, but, you know. )

The real question is... is Sakkun ready for this kind of commitment? Leading a girl on would be super rude, after all... ( she's just a pure maiden... )

[crystallomancy]

( he leans in closer too, and...

...pecks her on the tip of her nose, leaning away with slightly reddened ears. embarrassing, but it's fine. )

Even if I said something like "One kiss isn't a commitMENT," I'm sure you'd run your mouth about how it happened anyWAY, and I don't want people to get the wrong idea about ME. ( that he's a Player, since he's dogging after.　　　　　anyway. ) Maybe if you give me a real love confesSION, Little Viper... I'll consider giving you a kiss in reTURN.

[contrarily]

( oh.

... oh.

immediately, she leans back against the wall, about as flustered. it doesn't show on her face immediately, but she turns her head away, huffing. )

Ha... you know it's impossible. Even if the guy I like won't ask me out because he's on some lonely mission, I can't just throw confessions around willy-nilly! ( sure, she's a teenage girl prone to crushing on just about anyone who gives her attention, but still... it's kinda hard to keep looking at people through rose-tinted glasses when so much shit is going down. )

[crystallomancy]

( ...cute. )

That HURTS. You can't conceived of falling head-over-heels for ME? ( that's not what she's saying and he knows it, but— ) Don't give up so easily either; it doesn't suit a fiery-tempered person like YOU.

[contrarily]

Hmm... I think Sakkun already has an eye on someone.

( she snickers, still wanting to hear about how his talk with maya goes... after he actually talks to her.

which, we all know rika will not be hearing about it, but still — )

Hey, I never said I'm giving up!! I'll make him see that I'm perfectly capable of staying by his side!! ( maybe. possibly. he's insane but she can't just throw that out; she's still kind of processing that one herself. )

[crystallomancy]

( , shut up oh my god don't make it sound so scandalous. )

Good. ( ... ) But if it starts to get detrimental to YOU, then you're allowed to walk aWAY. You know that, RIGHT?

( just making sure......... )

[contrarily]

( IT IS SCANDALOUS. IT'S HOT GOSS!!! )

... ( looks at her hands. looks away. looks anywhere but at him. she's not sure whether it is or isn't — honestly, it might be, but brain stupid and seeing him gives it serotonin so she skims over the details. ) Yeah, I mean, you can walk away anytime, for any reason, right? Just losing interest is good enough of one.

( you owe nobody anything, etc, etc, gaslight gatekeep girlboss )

[crystallomancy]

( can't wait for when their relationship gets a little better so he can catch her up on his love life :(

he isn't sure how much he believes her, not with how she avoids his gaze, but that's fair, probably. he tucks some hair behind her ear, then moves away, a little quick. )

Make sure you drink that tea before it gets too cold and rest UP, Little Viper. I'm sure your friends miss seeing your face around the HALLS.

[contrarily]

( deepsighs... excited to berate him at the host club and feel a little better... )

... thanks, Sakkun. Take care, 'kay? ( she smiles, a little distant, and lays back down. )
