[evocationary]

[ just according to keikaku ]

Okay. [ she says, amused. ] You don't have to tell me.

[retellers]

[ ... blinks. i'm glad they're probably still close because neither of them moved away after the flower thing ] Surprised you're dropping it that easy.

[evocationary]

[ definitely because she hasn't moved, ha haaaa ]

I get secrets, especially when they're personal. [ she says, shrugging. ] Besides, if I bug you about it, you'll dig your feet in deeper, and then I'll never hear anything.

I'm a bully, but I'm not stupid.

[ at least she admits it... ]

[retellers]

[ mobile life... Also I'm in tears neither will be the first to move away. wolf raises an eyebrow ]

A bully? What are we, twelve?

[evocationary]

[ she tweaks his nose. like they're twelve. ]

What else would you call me?

[retellers]

[ he kind of jerks his head away with The most offended look ] Annoying.

[evocationary]

Yesss. Mission accomplished. [ but - the look she gives him is pretty soft? gross. anyway, she moves away finally to go look at the flowers again. ]

I like this place. [ she offers. ]

[retellers]

[ the soft look just gets a ?, okay. it just gets a ??? ] ... Thanks? It's an abandoned church. Not like I made it up myself.

[evocationary]

Oh my god. It wasn't even a compliment, you awkward nerdlord. [ she says, laughing. ] Do you think you're like, religious?

I assume the other leaders have places just like this.

[retellers]

[ ... his face goes >:T... she's the nerdlord... ] Considering the state of this church? Doubt it. [ he nods, though ] We've all got personal rooms. I don't know what theirs looks like, and I can't get in even if I wanted to.

[evocationary]

And you don't want to, because you hate everybody.

[ she nods, sagely. a beat. ]

Actually - question. Do you want to come stay with me and Taako this upcoming Thursday? During the inevitable murder time.

[retellers]

[ he doesn't even deny it? but. he looks surprised at the invite ] ... It's my week off. I'm castle side.

[evocationary]

Yeah? And? [ a beat. ] You don't have to.

I just thought I'd ask. The, uh. The powerless team leader rule made me wary.

[retellers]

[ there's a pause and then he lifts his sword ] Trust me. I'd be fine.

[evocationary]

[ he just gets a flat look ]

[retellers]

[ LISTEN, ] And I'm not vulnerable.

[evocationary]

Don't be a tough guy. You're as vulnerable as all of us. If someone decided to take you out, with another team leader's blessing? Like - what are you going to do about it? You can't guarantee you'll win.

At least if you were with us you could steal my stuff off my body and use it.

[retellers]

I can guarantee I'd win. We haven't lost enough members for me to be striped of my powers. [ lup, please? he's so tired? ]

[evocationary]

[ she makes a fart noise at him. ]

Fine. Whatever! I didn't want you to stay with me anyway!

[retellers]

[ oh my god, lup, he's too awkward for this. ] ... I'm on duty castle side. If you still want me around next week, that's fine. I'm just... trying to tell you you don't need to worry.

[evocationary]

[ she sits in front of the flowers, running her fingers over them.

she's quiet for a moment, and then: ] Okay.

Next week, then. If I'm not dead, anyway.

[retellers]

You won't be. [ this misplaced confidence ... he walks over to join her in front of the flowers ]

[evocationary]

[ she smiles again. ]

What makes you so sure?

[retellers]

I haven't been training you so you couldn't get the drop back on anyone who targets you. [ ... ] And you're too annoying to target anyway. [ so there. ]

[evocationary]

[ HFFFFT she laughs. ]

Aww, that's the nicest thing you've ever said to me! [ ... ] I'll uh. I'll do my best, but no promises, my HP is really low.

Hey, do you have the ability to text the dead too? At least if I die you can still text me. You better, or I'll haunt you.
