stop, drop, and flirt

My new trash OC- Tsukiko Takenaka, SESL Lunch Period

She brings a TON of really good food that she helps make to lunch, and all the other kids swarm around her to grab a bite. When she’s done sharing, she always has just enough to satisfy her hunger.

"If I got laid for every time someone has said that to me, I’d be literally be sleepin’ with someone every night."

"…Which I kinda do, so I s’ppose it works."

"Khu... Naifeh? Sounds pretty foreign t' me. Guess it's true what they say- if its exotic, it's erotic."

Damian gives a nonchalant shrug and keeps a straight face.

  "…Flirting…?"

She held a hand up to her lips, taking a moment to consider what to say.After a moment of consideration, and hearing his title, she looked off to the side.

"Chou Nakahara, insect collector, got it. It explains the butterflies an' all. Nice t' meetcha!"

"And heck yeah I fight fires! It's a pretty dang important job 'round here- it's tough but super rewarding. Keeps me in tip-top shape too~"

"You got a siblin' here? Huh, that's cool. Prob'ly puts a ton o' pressure on ya to get up to their level-"

"…"

Okay Aki, someone is talking to you. Kind of. Well, they were talking to everyone and you’re part of them! This is your chance to interact! Ahh, this guy was big though, wasn’t he? What if he doesn’t see you? You’re kinda on the small side Aki, drink more milk. Oh hey, what does his shirt say? Certified Hot Stud? Oh-

Aki let out a small laugh, finding the other’s shirt amusing. He then realized what he had done and quickly stopped laughing.

"…!"

Oh no oh no oh no oh no! What if he thinks you laughed at him? What if he gets mad? He can squish you with one arm. Squish. Bye bye Aki, was good knowing you you. Ahh, but maybe it’s not too late? If you apologize and explain yourself- oh, that could be a good conversation starter! Compliment his shirt!

"S-Shirt’s funny…"

As a the crowd of people died down, he was left with one girl clothed in lavender. Making eye contact with her, he began his usual greeting.

"Hey there! Cute outfit by the way..."

Silence and some awkward glances. Guess the flirt-and-smirk approach wasn't the way to go with this one.

"So you're a shy one, eh? Well, I-"

The girl giggled, startling him. The firefighter looked around. Nothing funny was going on around him, and he turned back and raised an eyebrow.

"Hey. What's so funny?!... M-my shirt?"

Immediately his tense face softened, mouth slowly widening into a bright smile.
