- May 01 22:34:53 <LipstickThespian> <Callum-chan, can we talk? In the kitchen? ^^> Yuki and her emotes, always brightening even a simple text message.
- May 01 22:35:46 <Knave> <Sure.> He finds the kitchen relatively quickly. Barely takes him five minutes.
- May 01 22:37:50 <LipstickThespian> Yuki is sitting there, having set up shop there instead of getting used to her new room arrangement. She heard they were going to shuffle them before they landed. "Callum-chan," she says with a smile as she craddles a cup of green tea in her hands. At least the kitchen was stocked already. "How are you?"
- May 01 22:40:59 <Knave> "Fine, I guess." He shrugs in a way that would be moody if his voice or face had any emotion in it. "What about you?"
- May 01 22:42:30 <LipstickThespian> "Tired," Yuki admits with a sigh. The last night had really made her dreary and this was a big change. "Would you sit with me?"
- May 01 22:45:24 <Knave> He pauses mid-lean against a wall. "Sure." He pulls up a chair and sits down awkwardly.
- May 01 22:50:18 <LipstickThespian> "I wanted to apologize," Yuki says as she looks down at her mug, "I acted innaproprietly the other night."
- May 01 22:52:16 <Knave> "It's fine." He waves his hand dismissively, "I was a jerk too. I'm sorry too."
- May 01 22:54:27 <LipstickThespian> "Can we forget it happened?" Yuki says, "please?"
- May 01 22:55:13 <Knave> "Uh," Callum's eyes boggle slightly in surprise, "Sure. Whatever you say." He shrugs.
- May 01 22:56:26 <LipstickThespian> "Let's start over, okay?" Yuki says as she looks up with a smile.
- May 01 22:57:14 <Knave> "Um." His brow furrows slightly and confusion escapes into his voice, "Sure. Okay."
- May 01 22:59:59 <LipstickThespian> "It's a new school," Yuki says, "and a new school year. So it's perfect, right? I can be the good little sister, and you can be the protective Onii-chan!"
- May 01 23:01:17 <Knave> He breathes out, nodding, "Yeah. That sounds good." He extends a hand to shake on it.
- May 01 23:04:48 <LipstickThespian> Yuki reaches over and shakes his hand, then returns it to her tea. "Did your move go alright?"
- May 01 23:06:06 <Knave> "Still living out of my bag. Cass is making arrangements." Callum shrugs, running the hand back through his hair, "Everything fine for you? Didn't see you in the crowd."
- May 01 23:10:19 <LipstickThespian> "I heard they were letting people get rooms, or suites together." Yuki says at the thought of Cass making arrangements. "I'm fine, I mostly read during the journey and kept to myself. I'm not used to running off quickly."
- May 01 23:12:41 <Knave> Callum shrugs again, "Well, me neither, but Cass made sure I got myself ready, so..." He peters out, then clears his throat, "Have you heard they're putting together a student newspaper?"
- May 01 23:17:43 <LipstickThespian> "Cass-chan can be really helpful when you need her to be," Yuki says with a laugh. "I did! I applied for one of the positions. I think it would be fun to write for."
- May 01 23:18:27 <Knave> "Me too." Callum smiles, "I hope we'll be working together, then."
- May 01 23:21:22 <LipstickThespian> "Wouldn't that be fun?" Yuki says with a laugh. "And you know, we're still going the baseball club here!"
- May 01 23:22:12 <Knave> "I was hoping." Callum chuckles, "Have you got anyone else interested yet?"
- May 01 23:23:43 <LipstickThespian> "I have almost a full roster!" Yuki says, "I think they'll let us compete, too. Here."
- May 01 23:24:20 <Knave> "Really? Against who?" Callum says with open-mouthed disbelief.
- May 01 23:26:36 <LipstickThespian> "
- May 01 23:26:42 <LipstickThespian> Other teams! Like, real schools."
- May 01 23:28:09 <Knave> "And what about the part where I can hit a ball into the next state? And some of us need to use our weird stuff just to be able to play." Callum cocks his eyebrow.
- May 01 23:33:10 <LipstickThespian> "It's not like we have to keep it a secret," Yuki says with a shrug. "Besides, it's not like steroids or an unfair advantage you know. We're still just kids like them."
- May 01 23:34:47 <Knave> "Still, can't see anyone lining up to play against us." He crosses his arms and leans back, "We're not exactly regulation."
- May 01 23:37:16 <LipstickThespian> "What part of the rules says a super boy can't play, a girl can't bring her imaginary friend, and a half snake girl can't slither around the bases?" Yuki says with a laugh.
- May 01 23:38:19 <Knave> "It's not a rules thing." Callum says, ignoring the 'super boy' with a harsh breath out, "Normal kids just won't want to play against us."
- May 01 23:39:32 <LipstickThespian> "What about not-normal kids?" Yuki says with a hum.
- May 01 23:40:15 <Knave> "Are there that many out there?" Callum cocks his head.
- May 01 23:48:15 <LipstickThespian> "There's a lot of them here. They say they have six dorms." Yuki holds up her hand, five fingers held up. "That's five other teams."
- May 01 23:50:46 <Knave> "You mean like..." He points at the ground, "Right here, there's-" Brief pause while he checks the math, "Six times as many of us as there was at Sunnybrook?"
- May 01 23:51:13 <LipstickThespian> "I don't know," Yuki says with a frown, "but there were four dorms back at Sunnybrook. So probably not."
- May 01 23:52:54 <Knave> Callum shrugs, reddening just a little at the mistake, "Well, still. That's still just us, right?"
- May 01 23:57:31 <LipstickThespian> "Well. I think, maybe we can get some other teams." Yuki furrows her brow. "I'm still thinking about it okay?"
- May 01 23:58:04 <Knave> "Okay." Callum says, putting up his palms in calm surrender, "Thought about a team name?"
- May 02 00:02:21 <LipstickThespian> "Sort of," Yuki says with a laugh as she rubs the back of her head. "It's dumb, but you can't laugh."
- May 02 00:02:51 <Knave> "I promise." He smiles gently, arms folded.
- May 02 00:04:18 <LipstickThespian> "The Super Naturals." Yuki says with a laugh. "Get it?"
- May 02 00:06:59 <Knave> Callum gives exactly one chuckle. "I get it. It's good." He nods, giving Yuki an encouraging pat on the shoulder.
- May 02 00:07:37 <LipstickThespian> "Unless you have something better?" Yuki says as she takes the pat.
- May 02 00:08:40 <Knave> Callum turned over a few ideas in his head, then shook his head, "Nothing you'd like." He'd been spending too much time with Cass.
- May 02 00:12:18 <LipstickThespian> "Tell me!" Yuki says, "even if it's just a joke."
- May 02 00:13:24 <Knave> "Nah," He shakes his head more, "Nothing good." He assures her with a firm voice.
- May 02 00:14:49 <LipstickThespian> "Callum-chan," Yuki says as she tilts her head, "do you think. Uhm." She pauses for a second. "The rooms, thing."
- May 02 00:16:35 <Knave> "What?" He says blankly and openly, prompting her to continue.
- May 02 00:18:25 <LipstickThespian> "Well, they're allowing friends to room together. Right?" Yuki says with a shift in her seat, "I thought. Maybe."
- May 02 00:20:19 <Knave> "I," He lowers his head as he rubs the back of his neck, so as to avoid her gaze, "Kind of have plans. Sorry."
- May 02 00:22:33 <LipstickThespian> "For a full suite?" Yuki says as she tries to prompt him to reconsider. "They have rooms for four people now."
- May 02 00:25:53 <Knave> "I don't know. I guess I'd have to ask Cass about it." Callum says, eyes sliding towards the wall and voice just a little bit guilty.
- May 02 00:28:00 <LipstickThespian> "It's fine, they'll assign me with someone else if you don't want to." Yuki says with a nod. "I can visit, right?"
- May 02 00:28:42 <Knave> "Sure. Of course." He clears his throat again, "But I will ask Cass. If you want me to, that is."
- May 02 00:31:40 <LipstickThespian> "I think it would be fun, don't you? The three of us, maybe someone else too. We would get a kitchen then, I could cook for us!" Yuki seems excited about not sharing an oven.
- May 02 00:33:42 <Knave> "Sure." Callum smiles warmly down at her, "That sounds great."
- May 02 00:37:51 <LipstickThespian> "Also," Yuki says with a laugh, "I have a book for you to read. You can read, right?" It's said teasingly.
- May 02 00:38:20 <Knave> "Yes, I can read." He says defensively, then grumbles, "Already told you that."
- May 02 00:39:34 <LipstickThespian> "It was a joke, I'll give it to you when we unpack. I read it and thought of you." Yuki rolled her eyes.
- May 02 00:40:47 <Knave> "Flattered you'd think of me." Callum says earnestly.
- May 02 00:43:17 <LipstickThespian> "Why wouldn't I?" Yuki says as a blush comes over her cheeks, "not many people have ever tucked me in."
- May 02 00:44:05 <Knave> Callum blushes fiercely in response, "You noticed that." He shrugs bashfully, "Didn't want to just leave you asleep on top of your sheets is all."
- May 02 00:45:38 <LipstickThespian> "I noticed because I was still wearing my costume," Yuki says with a smile. "You're nice, Callum-chan."
- May 02 00:48:18 <Knave> "Well, you're nice too." He nods, leaning forward on his knees.
- May 02 00:51:08 <LipstickThespian> "We should spend more time together, when everything is settled, Callum-chan." Yuki says definitively.
- May 02 00:52:41 <Knave> "Yeah." Callum nods, "Definitely. Yeah." He smiles slightly, then looks around the room, really taking it in for the first ime.
- May 02 00:53:37 <LipstickThespian> "I'm going to go to the cafeteria. Talk with Cass-chan, please?" Yuki smiles and stands up, grabbing her mug.
- May 02 00:56:08 <Knave> "Sure thing. Catch you around." Callum stands too, putting his hand to his head in goodbye.
- May 02 00:57:13 <LipstickThespian> "Bye, Onii-chan!" Yuki turns and walks off with a smile on her face.
- May 02 00:57:19 <LipstickThespian> -Scene Break-
