      ugh, leon  --  toko can bear about two people in this entire school, and so she always ends up on teams with the ones she can’t.     maybe the school recognizes that someone like her needs the athletes to even out how awful she is at everything  ;  that doesn’t mean she’s okay with it, though.     she gives him a once - over  --  he isn’t even acting like he cares !      now that’s annoying her, too.     “     hold on, aren’t you supposed to be all into sports ?     a - are you just making fun of the rest of us by pretending you aren’t ?      ”

    “ HOLD ON ! ”  salem seemed absolutely FRANTIC, sweating from her brow and TUGGING at her chestnut brown bob - cut, her HANDS clapping together for emphasis RIGHT in front of her. what a DUMB thing to argue about, and yet ... she was so PRESSED about it.  “ her sister was a WITCH ! and what was HER sister ? a princess ! the WICKED witch of the east, bro ! ”

       “      looking for someone to complain to ?    ”      they’re fond of leon, really  --  in their world, where imitation truly is the height of flattery, they’d briefly played with the idea of impersonating him.    that’d be willingly risking playing baseball, though, and they’d have to deal with all the piercings  --  no, it hadn’t been worth it at the time.    “     i suppose i’ll have to do.   my apologies.    ” 

@fungeos liked for a starter!

uhhh okay this one is solely for myself but his event w gundham where he invites him to the new year’s party is exactly the kind of dynamic i wish we’d gotten :( like…insulting each other but not being outright malicious, barely mentioning sonia (and when she was mentioned, it was in a shockingly pleasant way – “she’s going to be sad if you don’t show” is honestly sweet)…like, they aren’t best friends or anything, but they were getting along

          “     lilienthal’s wings !    ”    he shrieks.     he’d been trying to get them out of the machine ever since he’d been told they might be in there, but he was never super lucky with that sort of thing.     “      dude, this is great !     lilenthal was this awesome flight engineer in the 1800s  --  this probably isn’t the real thing, but whatever, even a model is cool !     ”

        he closes his eyes like he’s worried about the dye, then rolls them back as far as he can.    obviously leon’s going to give him that kind of advice, he doesn’t know what he expected.     he isn’t upset, though, and he opens his eyes to squint at leon’s reflection in the mirror.     “     yeah, i always have.    just makes it easier for me to screw it up.    i’ll shave the side down soon, it’s just a hassle.    unless you feel like doing it for me, since you’re already playing barber shop.     what do chicks dig barring guys who don’t care what they dig ?     ”
