         fingers tap against his thigh as he waits patiently for her answer. for some reason or another, he was a bit more antsy than usual. perhaps because it’s been... some time since they were able to be at ease. here, they had less to worry about, no longer needing to wait in anticipation for the next big fight. and with the festivities of summer to look forward to, the faunus decided to bring the fellow faunus along. she’s been busy enough without being a student so she deserved some time to unwind. and sun knew she wouldn’t treat herself, so he offers to do it for her.

         with her reply, he lets an exhale draw out. a smile mirroring hers, his body feels lighter, rejuvenated.

I HAVE A QUESTION– IF THE #2 PENCIL IS THE MOST USED PENCIL IN THE WORLD THEN WHY IS IT NUMBER TWO?

          for now it was the least she could do until she could do, at least until she had reason to pursue her thirst for revenge once more...

[ 1 / 1 ] This you?

blake vc: romance goes with happiness and we’re not allowed to have either

——- As with any city she has lived in or visited for prolonged periods of time, Spirale seems to open up surprises at every step, pieces of history & lore and little shops & hidden places previously invisible to her seeking eyes. Owl’s Books is a welcome find, a gently enclosed space like a new dimension upon entrance -- it is not empty, as her entrance has been preceded by staff and other customers settled in with a book, but the ambient noise does not overwhelm, light as the turn of a page.

-- For once ( multiple times in a day, actually, but especially now ) she’s glad she doesn’t have Widget to blurt out that one of the staff has cat ears. She still hasn’t figured out how to turn off that function. 

“Ah -- hello!” You’re staring. Stop that, Athena, it’s rude. “I didn’t know this existed! Anyway, hi, I’m looking for -- “ And yet her eyes continue to wander upwards with very little subtlety. “--anything on law? I’m interested in Spirale’s legal system.”

Shit I’ve said to my cat; sentence starters

               ❛   Blake...   ❜   HER   voice carries the same intonation as someone trying to gently nudge a friend awake, trailing off initially as her teeth catch her lower lip. It doesn’t seem fair, she thinks, the way Blake’s past constantly dogs her. The way that even here, someone’s innocent mistake can cause her to grimace --- a look of pain and guilt, a lingering heaping of shame, that Ruby’s seen way too many times on her friend’s otherwise tranquil face. 

        Eventually, she settles for resting her hands on her hips --- a casual, self-confident air that, when employed by their fearless protagonist, generally means shenanigans will soon ensue.   ❛   I... Maaay or may not have scoped out a few really good fish dishes on the star trail.   ❜   Another pause.

               ❛   A couple of ‘em have tuuu-naaa...   ❜

"No, seriously. You won't believe it. I don't think I believe it either."
