[robitussin]

[a while after the game (so laaaate evening), tak is getting a knock on the door]

Re: day 160

[experiencepoints]

[and of course, guess who is answering the door]

Natalie? Hey. What's up?

Re: day 160

[robitussin]

[awkward pause]

...Can I stay for a while? Like, just a few hours or something.

Re: day 160

[experiencepoints]

Of course. As long as you need to.

[she's not gonna pry, since something clearly happened, just stand aside to let her in.]

Re: day 160

[robitussin]

Thanks.

[taking a seat on the nestbed]

I'm still so jealous of your dorm.

[it's a pretty weak attempt at humor but it's there]

Re: day 160

[experiencepoints]

[nightingale will follow, being close enough that natalie can cuddle if she wants, or keep distance instead if she'd rather.]

You're welcome over here any time, you know.

Re: day 160

[robitussin]

[yes cuddling is excellent

dropping her head onto nightingale's shoulder and reaching for her hand]

Yeah, I know. Same to you, yeah?

Re: day 160

[experiencepoints]

Of course. I've been wanting to go by, but it's been busy over here...

[cool, i'll just rest my head against yours and take your hand

let's cuddling]

Re: day 160

[robitussin]

Yeah. I mean, you don't have to come if you have other stuff going on, but you always can. You know.

Were you at the game, by the way?

195 evening

[robitussin]

[knocking on takshaka's door]

[experiencepoints]

[the door opens by itself, and oh look who's standing behind it all dressed up]

Hey.

[robitussin]

[i forgot to edit with a link but whatever you already know what she's wearing i showed you on plurk

anyways as soon as nightingale opens the door she's giving her an excessively cheesy bow]

My lady.

[experiencepoints]

[She returns it with an equally cheesy curtsy, trying not to crack up and failing.]

Here to sweep me off my feet?

[robitussin]

And to tell you that your carriage awaits.

[there is no carriage]

[experiencepoints]

[She holds out her hand.]

Well, then, will you escort me to it?

[robitussin]

[taking her hand with another bow]

Certainly, my love.

[leading her carefully into the snow]

[experiencepoints]

[okay, but that's finally enough to get her to dissolve into giggles.]

Well, you're certainly into this tonight.

[robitussin]

[SO HERE WE ARE, coming back to henwen after that endgame.

...she doesn't really waste time before heading to her room and flopping onto her bed with a sigh. she does pat the space next to her, though. come commiserate with her.]

[experiencepoints]

[She heads over and sits next to her, and puts an arm around her.]

How are you feeling?

[robitussin]

More pissed than usual.

[she curls in towards that contact, though.]

[experiencepoints]

[oh good

she just lightly strokes her hair, trying to be comforting.]

Me too. That was a mess...

[robitussin]

It always surprises me how shitty people here are. Maybe it shouldn't.

[experiencepoints]

That dog guy... I couldn't tell who he was, but if he's the one I think he is, he got pissed like that when I told him that Rotten ran a bad game to try to kill us once, too.

[robitussin]

We already hate each other. After Caretaker's last game, he said he cares more about that asshole than the people who got killed. He's a piece of shit.

[experiencepoints]

Seriously? What an ass.
