[ A short-lived one, to be sure. ] Will you be finished with this game of yours, soon?

"It seems I did put on a little too much perfume today." Yukari idly twisted the handle of the parasol this way and that as she listened. She even made a show of looking around her at the ground to the sides to acknowledge some of that evidence.

"Did you consider the possibility that I was here before the snow arrived?" Another twist of the parasol, as if suggesting that the cover is why there is no snow on her, which could disprove that alternate theory.

"No." Katt said bluntly. She wish she had more time to become familiar with snow. She couldn't refute anything this girl had to say about it.

SORRY ABOUT TAKING SO LONG...

It was no surprise that, judging by how fast she was going, Celes was indeed able to get the nurse and head back over there. Admittedly, though, she was quite impressed that the girl was able to move at all...even if it was less than ten feet. "I did say I would be back." the young gambler turns to the nurse and nods, as if to say 'yes, that's the moron that fell'.

After a final glance back and a big smile, Celes leaves Katt with the words "You should be in good hands now...try not to do anything stupid, despite how hard that may be for you." and is on her merry way.

Sorry about getting to this so late

Not being one to accept that kind of an answer, Celes will indeed do her best to rope her into it. "Are you sure?" she says with a smile, placing her deck of cards on the table and steepling her hands together. "I'll even let you pick the game."

Do you have something in mind?

Perhaps.

Should I set my grading work aside for the evening?

If only you could set it aside until Spring.
impersonal_space: ([58])

btw since Katt's in now, would you like this to be game canon?

Yukari tapped a finger to her chin, satisfied with that answer. "This leaves a glaring hole in your accusation."
everyone_wants_to_be_a: (Y'wanna make something outta this?)

sure :3

Katt raised the clawed finger pointedly. Something in her gut told her that this woman the one responsible, and nothing silly like LOGIC was going to persuade her otherwise.

"I still know you did it!" She exclaimed. "You're just tryin' to confuse me!"
princesstenko: (shining gold)

[personal profile] princesstenko 2012-12-12 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
That would be irresponsible, Yukari. Someone has to work while you're hibernating.

At least attempt to enjoy the break from classes with me.

I'll try.

Splendid!

Now, I will leave you to your games.

The woman doesn't budge an inch, figuratively or literally. "Guilt cannot be implied on faith alone.

"Tell me, what were you doing out here in the first place?" Like she didn't know.
everyone_wants_to_be_a: (Huh sorry I wasn't listenin')

Katt crossed her arms and glowered. She was right that she couldn't prove it just on her suspicion, but a part of her knew. Or was (un)reasonably sure, at least. So, if this woman was going to be difficult, then so could see.

"Why should I tell you? Why do you care??"

CAT JOKE /shot

[personal profile] impersonal_space 2012-12-18 11:07 am (UTC)(link)
"Call it 'curiosity'," the woman said with that same coy smile. "You might know a thing or two about that."
everyone_wants_to_be_a: (Interestin'!!)

[personal profile] everyone_wants_to_be_a 2012-12-18 12:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"I suppose. The nuns would sometimes say it about me when I got into trouble." Katt replied honestly, a smirk forming on her face. "But the one I liked the most is one the villagers would say about me 'Someone who rides a tiger is afraid to get off.'"

...oh, now there is a smile she will hide behind a fan. It's unfair to dangle low-hanging fruit like that in front of Yukari. "What an enticing idiom."

That was bad and Yukari should feel bad but, of course, she doesn't.
amajorham: (SUCH PURITY! SUCH GRACE!)

I WASN'T MUCH BETTER...

[personal profile] amajorham 2012-12-24 08:36 am (UTC)(link)
Yuugi...my, what a fine name for such a kind young woman! I can tell it will not be difficult to remember you, my dear!

[Sparkles all day every day up in here. In fact they only increased once she says how much she liked his speech. He's also beaming at her.]

Oh my, what incredible kindness you possess!

[Here come more tears of joy.]

I assure you, your compliments warm my very soul to its core! Truly you have an eye for detail, as I was rather involved in that rousing speech! There is no point in doing something if you cannot do it PASSIONATELY!!!

[ Wow, he's really hamming it up, but not in the obnoxious "I am the center of my universe" kind of way. In fact, it's pretty funny. ] Heh, got that right. No point in half-assing anything. Gotta get into it! [ Unless we're talking History, in which case, forget that noise. ]
