Journal & Action

-1 : Journal-

You know, I'm a little shocked. I know I'm a cold-yet-spicy, and I know my breath smells like alcohol and cigarettes, but here we are at a theme park, the perfect place for a date, and I've been going around it all my lonesome.

Come now, ladies, gentlemen. In this age, when's the next time you'll get to go on a theme park date?

-2 : Action-

[On a prior night, Loraine is in a tacky aquarium themed bar in Fairy Park, colors of blue and purple luvdiscs everywhere. A mermaid costumed beauty sits halfway out of a tank, mixing drinks. She's drinking some kind of red, blended drink. She seems ... thoughtful. Perhaps the liquor has put a downer on her mood tonight.]

This place is tacky as all get out, but... no one here seems to much for want.

[She stares over at a grand piano, which she considers desecrated by all of the decorations, making it look like a giant clam with black and white musical teeth.]

... I wonder if they need a pianist.

Doesn't mean you can't smile~

Let's go get dinner, though.

[saikyocivrobo]

Well, if more happy events happen, I won't be against smiling more... Anyway, let's.

[Finding a food stall in an amusement park is not a hard task. How surprising! Sausage and French fries get, at least for Werter.]

Ha... It's been too long since I had hot food like this... How about you? Is this stuff to your liking?

[heliotropesmoke.livejournal.com]

I warn you, I am a liar~ [She chomps on some fried oysters and an avacado burger]

[saikyocivrobo]

Oh? Then which of the things you said so far were lies, if I may know?

[He says while chomping on the bratwurst and squirting mustard on the fries. Whether it's just Werter's habit to talk while eating or do all Germans do that, one can only guess.]

[heliotropesmoke.livejournal.com]

You think I'll tell you? Besides, I don't remember every lie I tell.

[Suddenly, something Alessandra-shaped springs out from hiding! Could it be that she was lying in wait inside the food stall? Or is it just a coincidence? One way or another, her appearance is sudden and you barely avoid a collission. Or maybe you do not, who knows. It's a crowded place - accidents happen.]

Sir Werter! I am so glad to find you here - I have a favor to ask.

There is a certain lady friend of mine whose lonely heart requires attention of a warm and open individual. She is self-admittedly a shallow person, however her intelligence and sense of humor are signifi...

[Switches mental gears without missing a beat.]
Oh, greetings to you lady Loraine. What a coincidence!

[saikyocivrobo]

Was zum der Teufffkhhg...!

[Sudden surprises are no good for people who are in the middle of eating! Werter chokes on the sausage and enters an uncontrollable coughing fit. Pity he was holding his plate with his hand - now he's sending a storm of fries and mustard everywhere!]

[heliotropesmoke.livejournal.com]

AHHH!! [SHOWERED IN FRIES AND MUSTARD, AUGH THE GREASE]

[augh it's all over her blouse and face and hair]

[fermionprincess]

I believe I have been interrupting something very private. Please excuse me.

[Tries to disappear discretely. Even Alessandra knows a Really Bad social situation where she sees one.]

[saikyocivrobo]

Oh holy crap, the pandemonium! Loraine, are you alright...?!

[heliotropesmoke.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm not hurt, if that's what you mean.

[She grumbled, and all but growled]

[saikyocivrobo]

Well, that's good to hear at least, fast food like this can be pretty hot sometimes... Gah, what am I saying! I really didn't mean to attack you with burningly hot French fries, the princess startled me...! Gah, is it a law of the world that just when everything was going so well something like this must happen...?

[Werter produces a pack of disposable handkerchiefs from his pocket.]

Um, here. They're unused.

[heliotropesmoke.livejournal.com]

[She took the napkins]

... If I were less irritated I would find your flustering about rather amusing...

... look, don't blame yourself...

[saikyocivrobo]

But who else to blame? Alessandra? She didn't do anything wrong...

Okay, I guess I can blame Murphy. He's probably laughing his ass off right now, too.

[heliotropesmoke.livejournal.com]

As in Murphy's Law?

[saikyocivrobo]

Exactly.

[heliotropesmoke.livejournal.com]

... I insist you take care of this mess and clean me off. [HANDS HIM BACK THE NAPKIN]

[have fun with that mustardy purple blouse]

[saikyocivrobo]

I can do at least that much.

[Easier said than done. Werter tries to find a good balance between being effective (not trivial, damn mustard feels too cozy where it is right now to get off easily) and being tactful (rubbing something against your date's chest? No innuendo here at all, no sirree!).]

[heliotropesmoke.livejournal.com]

[She started to smile a little again at least, mostly at his embarrassment.]

You're so red.

[saikyocivrobo]

Well, this is not exactly a situation I find myself in very often... Or at all, until now.

[heliotropesmoke.livejournal.com]

Do you think it's one I do?

[saikyocivrobo]

Probably not. If such situations are common for you, that means at some point you abandoned reality for a romantic comedy and didn't notice.

[heliotropesmoke.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't mind that. Keeps life interesting.

[saikyocivrobo]

Well, seeing how different my life is now from what I had a few months ago, I'd say I did enter a story already. Just one with less romance and more explosions.
