Prose

Ayaka wasn't the prankster. She didn't really have the right mindset for it.

That didn't mean she didn't enjoy a good laugh at Negi's expense, as she happened to be passing by the room at that moment for some reason.

Maybe she shouldn't be drawing attention to herself like this.

Making a face, Negi looked up and his eyebrow twitched. "A-ya-ka..." he grumbled, shaking his head with a sigh. "Did you do this?"

She doesn't quite register the question for a good few seconds, still laughing at his misfortune... but when it clicks-

2/2

[black_lily]

"M-me?!" she faltered at the question, before demanding, "Why would I even want to touch your cup?!"

She seemed to think touching other people's cups was gross, apparently, whether they had already drunken from it or not.

"Just checking," replied Negi, folding his arms. "You are a bit of a little tanuki after all."

To say it mildly.

[black_lily]

"A.... a tanuki...?" Ayaka's eyebrow twitched at that.

She'd been called quite a few things during her ... "work" back in Japan, but tanuki?

She didn't seem to know how to take that. She wasn't sure if it was an insult, or some weird way of calling her cute, or... what.

[found_a_way]

"Yes, as in you're mischievous at times," remarked Negi, folding his arms. "But I suppose that's to be expected."

[black_lily]

"Mischievous?" Ayaka frowned at that, "I think elegant, powerful, and beautiful suit me better."

Somebody clearly had a high opinion of herself...

[found_a_way]

"I suppose so," sighed Negi. "In any case, I should find out who replaced my cup after all."

[black_lily]

Well, since Negi more or less agreed with her assessment, she was pacified for the moment.

"Well, good luck with that, then."

She wasn't just going to help him find a cup out of the goodness of her heart, though.

[found_a_way]

"Thanks. So what are you doing right now anyhow?" he inquired, moving to go get the cup and rinse it out.

[black_lily]

"I was on my way to the cafeteria."

Her stomach growled at that, reminding her that perhaps she should get on with it. She seemed to scowl for a moment at that, since stomach growling didn't suit her at all!

[found_a_way]

"Eh, I've got lunch here, enough for two. Want to share?" inquired Negi. "They're sandwiches from the cafeteria."

[black_lily]

"I suppose that will do, for now," Ayaka nodded.

[found_a_way]

"All right. Come on in, and have a seat. I'll get it out of the fridge." And Negi went over to the small fridge, pulling a wrapped plate out of it and a smaller one of cookies.

[black_lily]

Are those cookies that Ayaka spies?

2/2

[black_lily]

Ayaka quickly composed herself and took a seat.

Re: 2/2

[found_a_way]

"Yeah, they're good ones too. My sister sent them to me." Handing her the plate, he offered Ayaka a sandwich first as he took his own and took a bite of it.

[black_lily]

"You'll have to let me try them, then," Ayaka decided.

It kind of came out more as a declaration than a question, but that's Ayaka for you.

She accepted the sandwich nonetheless, and took a bite out of it; making a brief odd face as she did. Even if what came out of the cafeteria was undoubtedly good, she wasn't really used to sandwiches.

[found_a_way]

Considering Negi wasn't much of a cook, it was at least a work in progress. He nodded at least and smiled before swallowing. "All right, we'll have the cookies after this."

[black_lily]

"Ah... yes..."

This sandwich didn't taste like a cafeteria sandwich, now that she thought about it...

[found_a_way]

That's cause it wasn't. And it wasn't Sanji's cooking either. "You okay?"

[black_lily]

"This sandwich tastes terrible."

Ayaka held nothing back.

[found_a_way]

SHOCK. And Negi staggered physically for a moment. "H-hey. It's really not that bad... I mean I'm sure I can't mess up a sandwich."

[black_lily]

"I... I see. So it's not from the cafeteria..." Ayaka's eyebrow twitched.
