[Day: Friday, April 22nd. Or is that Saturday, April 23rd?] [Regardless, it's right around midnight. The snow still hasn't let up, because Hell froze over: the PCs actually managed a decisive victory.] [Kyon's stalking down the hall. Why? Because he hardly does anything *but* stalk.] [Mini Start.] * Kyon jams his hand in his pocket for a bit, fishes around, then tugs out his card key for the room as he comes to it. He inserts it, and unlocks the door. [Mini end! Best mini ever.] ( Come on, you have to admit that was funny D: ) (>.> You're the GM! We might actually take you seriously! ;P) (Yeah, it was pretty cute. ^^) * Katie looks over as Kyon opens the door, checking his eyes even from this distance. She's sitting at the window, which is open; she has her sketchpad on her lap. Fortunately, she's also wearing her jacket, and Kyon's hit in the face with a cold breeze as he walks in. * Kyon smirks as he closes the door. "Can keep myself warm. Need to be cold now?" No, just looking outside. You can see more with the window open. * Katie looks back outside, then down at her sketchbook, and continues to draw. "" * Kyon shrugs tersely as he takes off his jacket. "Yeah? Not a great view." He hangs it up in the closet. "" * Katie shrugs. * Kyon looks around the room quickly, then turns his smirk back on her. "" * Kyon shrugs quickly. "" * Katie keeps sketching. "" She glances out the window, then it's back down. "" * Kyon goes over to sit on the bed. "" * Katie looks at Kyon. * Kyon leans back, placing his hands behind him on the bed to brace himself. "" * Kyon looks over at her sidewise. "" * Kyon surveys the room. "" * Katie closes her book and stands, going to the window and shutting that. * Katie laughs a little. "" * Kyon looks over at the closed window. "" He looks around the mess. "" * Katie shrugs. * Katie keeps looking outside, though now she's standing. She holds her sketchbook by its binding, curling her fingers up. "" * Kyon snorts. "" * Kyon sits up, and looks over at her. "" ( * Katie looks at Kyon. "" * Kyon cocks his head. "" ( No. I wear the same clothes everyday. Doesn't every anime character?) (He doesn't, though. He's had a wide variety of outfits. =P) * Kyon smirks. "" (They all have. The funny part about wearing a school uniform is we really draw attention to what they're wearing when they're out.) * Katie smiles. "" * Kyon thinks for a few seconds. "" ( Well, I've got it on good authority that I used to be a little girl.) ("Hi, I'm Stephen King! And I'm a little girl!") ( Haruko's not a little girl! ) ( Stupid overly perceptive bartender making me use my powers.) (So she's not Stephen King. Handy.) * Kyon smirks. "" * Katie doesn't sound angry or accusatory, just curious. (Katie's always thought manipulating people was okay.) (Actually, yes.) * Kyon shrugs quickly. "" ( I was going to have a drunk businessman buy Haruko a bottle of wine for seduction rolls, but you got the juice instead D: ) * Katie nods and waits for Kyon to go on. (Drunk businessmen can be touchy) (Haruko wasn't going to do that for alcohol) (She'd prefer the down on his luck guy who needs the money ) ( My alternative plan was to bring out a katamari. ) (Did it roll up tasty things?) (This Katamaris is made of ... lushes.) * Kyon considers it a bit more. "" (Katamari can roll up booze) ( It went through the desserts before coming to the bar! ) * Kyon looks towards the window. "" * Katie walks over to put the sketchbook on the table, which she does. "" * Kyon shrugs quickly. "" * Katie walks over and sits on the bed, folding her hands and looking at Kyon. * Kyon shrugs quickly. "" * Katie nods, keeping her attention on Kyon. "" * Kyon looks over at her quietly in the eyes, and then nods firmly. "" * Katie lets out a quiet sigh. "" There's a brief pause, and then she says, "" She looks away now, to the mirror. "" * Kyon smirks. "" * Kyon blows out a breath. "" * Katie doesn't say anything for a moment, then she asks, "" * Kyon cocks his head and regards her for a second. "" * Katie looks at Kyon. "" She grins. "" * Kyon looks at her almost incredulously, bites his lip for a second, then looks towards the window. "" * Katie laughs. "" Her voice cracks a little. "" * Kyon keeps his eyes on the window. "" (My foot's asleep! Augh!) (Jump up and down!) (She's walking around and up the stairs) (Back! Just my foot now, not my whole leg. Augh.) * Kyon looks back at her, hesitating before he speaks. "" He smirks. "" * Katie scratches at the back of her neck. "" * Katie giggles. "" * Kyon shrugs quickly. "" * Kyon leans back on the bed some again, a little of the awkwardness melting away. "" * Katie smiles. "" * Katie swings her feet back and forth, scuffing the carpet. * Kyon shrugs quickly. "" * Kyon looks up at her, for once, from laying back some on the bed. " * Katie waves it off. "" She hesitates a moment, then says, "" * Kyon lifts his head off the bed. "" * Katie bites her lip, then says, "" * Kyon opens his mouth and says something, but nothing really happens. He sits up more and looks at Katie, then hits the bed and notices no sound. Then he mouths, "" * Katie shakes her head, tries to speak, and then claps her hands. Not a sound. She laughs; there's clearly no sound then, either, until halfway through when it's perfectly clear. * Kyon smiles crookedly. "" * Katie grins. "" * Kyon smirks. "" * Katie sticks her tongue out at him. "" * Kyon leans back again, resting on his forearms. "" * Katie plays with her sleeve. No buttons there; it's sad. * Katie looks up. "" * Kyon looks over at her. "" * Katie thinks about that for a moment. "" (Actually, it's really hot.) * Kyon nods quickly, then smirks. "" * Katie fidgets and looks down at her sleeve again. She twists it in, then out, then tries to stick her thumb through it - that won't work. "" * Kyon nods quickly. "" He smirks. "" * Katie tries to poke her thumb through her sleeve again. "" * Kyon raises an eyebrow, but doesn't sit up. "" * Kyon turns on his side a bit to look up at her. "" * Katie doesn't look at Kyon, looking at her sleeve and only her sleeve, thank you very much. "" She laughs nervously. "" She sighs. * Katie shrugs. "" * Kyon blinks a few times, just looking at her, and then pushes himself up onto one elbow. "" * Katie fidgets some more. "" * Kyon rests his off hand on her knee, very lightly. "" He barks out a laugh. "" * Katie nearly jumps. She stares at the hand on her knee, then she turns her attention up and looks across the gap at Kyon, eyes wide. "" * Kyon withdraws his hand a bit when she jumps, leaving it hovering over her knee by about an inch. "" He covers up a momentary rueful look with a smirk. "" * Katie looks almost annoyed. "" * Kyon smiles, awkwardly but warmly, and rests his hand back down lightly on her knee again. "" * Katie tries the relaxing thing, and it even kind of works. She looks down at Kyon's hand, and then she puts her own on top of it. "" * Kyon looks down at their hands, and just focuses on keeping it there for now. "" * Katie nods, thinking things over. * Katie hesitates. "" * Kyon closes his eyes for a few seconds, and tries to relax more, too, before opening his eyes again. "" * Katie nods. * Kyon keeps his eyes on his hand, shifting a bit with his head on his elbow. "" * Katie taps one of her fingers against Kyon's knuckle. "" * Kyon stares at his hand more intensely, then relaxes a bit again with a smirk. "" * Katie giggles. "" She looks up at Kyon. "" This is stated as simple fact. * Kyon blinks a couple of times, then looks up at her seriously. "" He looks back down at their hands. "" * Katie lightly squeezes Kyon's hand. "" * Kyon pushes his other hand against his face, adjusting the arm warmer some, and lets his hand be squeezed without pulling it away. "" * Katie nods, and she finally relaxes. "" * Kyon lets himself back down, laying his head back down on the bed, but not moving his hand. "" [And End.]
