Paper Faces on Parade

[happysweets]

[ Okay, so, assuming everyone got a crossword and an invite on Tuesday, one would assume that pretty much everyone knows that Misa's planning something. A sign on the door of the music room will indicate as much, a nice big "KEEP OUT PLEASE ♥" to make sure everything's set up just right before the festivities start. The tables are set up just right for snacks and all, the stage is set, the room is even decorated with hand-made streamers and lots of bright ribbons from the art room! When Misa goes hard, she goes hard, apparently. The floor isn't exactly a dance floor, but it should be nice enough that people can dance if they want to, and though she had a really hard time pushing everything around to make the perfect amount of space, it looks like it's about as good as it's going to get.

The guests'll be happy to know there aren't any penalty snacks this time around; nothing set out on the table looks gross or horribly out of place like at Truth or Dare. Everything looks pretty cute, actually; between the desserts and the actual cocktails set out, she and Aqua kind of outdid themselves in terms of meal planning. As for the host herself, she'll obviously be running around too, making sure everything's going okay; one would think that between prepping the food and the party itself, she wouldn't have much time to get herself all dolled up, but a model always has to look her best! And Misa certainly isn't giving anything less than 110 percent, between her short black dress and her ma-- jesus Misa save some glitter for everyone else

In any case, the party is definitely intended to be a late-night affair! And all are welcome, so feel free to come in and dance the night away! Misa even has a bunch of masks in different colors made for people who didn't have time to make one themselves, so don't be shy to grab one and have fun! ]

It's their fault if they're looking.

[Just sayin'.]

Are you... going to dance with anyone?

[penduli]

[ SIGRUN... ]

...probably not, no. I'm a little busy tonight. [ What with his piano playing and his cocktail sipping and his writing. ] What about you?

[captainobnoxious]

Not interested.

[... She had her one embarrassing dance, okay.]

[penduli]

[ ..... ]

You seemed to have fun dancing with Mettaton. [ SO VERY

VERY

VERY INNOCENTLY SAID. ] Are you sure?

[captainobnoxious]

[don't make her relive that it was nice she's just

gonna sit down next to black and grab him in a headlock. And noogie him hard.]

Positive. He had my only dance of the night because I don't do dances like this. Even if he wants a second one I'm not falling for it.

[penduli]

[ he knows he deserves this but it doesn't suck any less ]

Ahh I—see, I see—can you please stop, Miss Sigrun?

[captainobnoxious]

[A few more seconds of it and she'll let him go, leaning full-tilt against him now.]

I'm so happy I want to punch someone.

[penduli]

[ O H.................]

...we have a dojo so you can take out some of your punching there? [ Not... not on him... ]

[captainobnoxious]

I probably will! Later! But I can hold it in for now. It's, you know, a nice feeling.

[Kind of weird for a woman her age to be having but really like knows no age or however the fuck it goes.]

I think I could maybe get used to it? Do you feel like punching something around the guy you like too?

[penduli]

Not really, no. [ He's dying but he can't even complain. ] Usually I feel like I've gotten punched.

[ ...that's pleasant, right. ]

[captainobnoxious]

[...]

But in a good way?

[penduli]

How could that ever be in a good way?

[captainobnoxious]

They take the breath out of you. Even if it feels like it should hurt, you still want to be around them. It's a weird, but nice, punchy feeling.

[penduli]

[ Is that how it feels? ...mmm. ]

Sometimes, I guess. Mostly it reminds me of when I'd get the shit beaten out of me by a few boys in the year ahead of me. [ ...oh no he said the S word, he's been spending too much time with Yosuke— ] Ah—sorry, I didn't mean to swear.

[captainobnoxious]

[...................]

Where'd you learn to say that so freely, Black? Haven't really heard you curse before. Kind of strange.

[penduli]

[ ..............

she didn't call him kitten. this is serious. ]

I guess I must've picked it up from Yosuke. [ Glancing... over...... ] He says... things... pretty easily.

[captainobnoxious]

[Ah..........]

I see. Well, that's fine and all, you're an adult and you can say whatever you damn well please, it was just a little odd.

[Yosuke's gettin a fuckin talking to at some point for tainting her little bro]

Now, about your bully-feelings. You have to think about them positively. Another way I could say how that guy makes me feel is that I'd rather get chewed on by a giant than to hear him say anything nice about me ever, but at the same time I can't get enough. It's weird and I don't know if I should love it or hate it.

[penduli]

[ Sigrun Please. ]

I didn't realize you were so easy to embarrass, Miss Sigrun.

[captainobnoxious]

[naughty children get put back in the goddamn pear wriggler enjoy your headlock]

Only he can, so don't get any ideas. [She reaaaaaaally likes the robot.] And it's only because I've never really had my mind on any of this before, damn that god of fortune and his stupid questions, but on the brightside I am positive I make him feel the same way.

[And that makes her feel like she swallowed a squirmy tentacle sea beast.]

[penduli]

[ fhjhufkcufkcufk ]

That's—good, at least. He seems more like an AI than a real robot, so it's good you're... expanding his emotional capacity. In a way.





[ ok son ]

[captainobnoxious]

... I don't understand a word you said, but sure, I'm dating him better than literally anyone ever could.

[that's right.]

[penduli]

[ ...you know what

yep. Yep. ]

You sure are.

[captainobnoxious]

Have you ever had a boyfriend before?

[penduli]

A few.

[ He's not a totally luckless loser, thankfully.

...but he's not saying more than that?? Girl, if you thought this was Gossip Hour, it's not. No matter how many cocktails he's had. ]

[captainobnoxious]

[... So you'll gossip with your crush but not with your Norwegian mom-sister???]

What were they like?
