post palace takeout! [week 5]

[beathollow]

( at some point a bedraggled lot in yukatas manage to make their way to the dorm, shower and patch themselves up. and then mafuyu makes a very earnest request that they all go out for dinner, and, well, apparently many struggle to refuse her.

this is how they find themselves in something akin to a denny's or an ihop at like, midnight.




as one does. )

[Of course not. He's in disaster bisexual for a reason.]

I'm pretty heavy. You sure you could carry me all on yer own? Didn't I cut you too?

[cirquedesang]

[Get wrekt, manlayer.]

You did. [And the ghoulmi sure did stab him real good, but if Izou doesn't know, he doesn't need to know right now.]

But--

[He will do this a grand total of one (1) time, because the combination of wearing a sleeveless hoodie enabling the act and the need for a little silliness to dismiss any guilt Izou might be feeling necessitates it, but... yeah, he sure does put an arm up to flex.]

I'm quite certain.

[goei]

[???????? HOT????]

How's a pretty boy like you got muscles like that!?

[cirquedesang]

[Okay that wasn't the reaction he was expecting, and he laughs pretty openly about it.

Which hurts, so it stops abruptly with a bit of a wince. Thanks, ghoulmis.]

I'm an acrobat is how. But oh, Izou, you really think I'm pretty?

[Not waiting for hot or not to drag this disaster bi, apparently.]

[goei]

Wh- That- It's just an expression! I mean like, how you and Red are all soft and smooth looking!! As opposed ta someone manly like McGillis!

[cirquedesang]

[Red? Who-- Ah, right Argenti.]

...You realize that armor must be heavy, no? If 'soft and smooth' is your metric, he's likely as surprising as I am.

[goei]

Well it's not like I'm sittin' around oglin' men's bodies. I'm just talkin' about yer faces!

[It's an attempt to sound less gay... not really working.]

[cirquedesang]

Clearly not.

[You know, since the gun show was a surprise. But--]

Though you did slash open my yukata. And McGillis's yukata. Perhaps your darker self was more honest about one thing.

[goei]

[NOOOOOO]

I was aimin' fer yer vitals, idiot!!!

[cirquedesang]

If you insist~

[He knows he was. He's just also easy to tease.]

[goei]

Stop sayin' it like that! It ain't an excuse it's just th' truth!!!

[cirquedesang]

It could, perhaps, be both.

[Sew a seed of doubt here...]

[goei]

What kinda guy d'you think I am!? I ain't gonna try ta ogle people in the middle of a fight!

[cirquedesang]

What was your title again? Manlayer?

[fullmoonmutt]

[ ...all this, right in front of his salad pile of food plus one illicit Kirumi steak... excuse??? why is izou the one getting the gun show here?! ]

[cirquedesang]

[...Honestly the whole table got the gun show. Izou caused it so everyone else who would care gets to catch strays. Con...grats?]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ sadly eli cares to catch strays... he just... pretends hard not to

also has to wonder if he should show off his arms, too?! is that something they're doing now?! it isn't, though, so he won't ]

[cirquedesang]

[RIP in pieces, Eli......

But also. He could. Maybe Izou would get even more flustered by it.]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ HE COULD but consider... he can just kick Celeste from under the table, in the goddamn shin, and make a big ol' cut it out face at him. Glowering. GLOWERING? HELLO? ]

[cirquedesang]

[New. Target. Acquired.]

Is something the matter~?

[fullmoonmutt]

[ staaare ]

Got no idea what you're talking about.

[cirquedesang]

No? Then whatever could that look be about?

[The glowering. The staring.

The coup de grâce--]

And I suppose that kick was an accident?

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Eli huffs and looks away, nonetheless still annoyed. ]

Yeah. It was.

[cirquedesang]

[You are being perceived.]

Of course, my mistake.

[fullmoonmutt]

[ PERCIEVE ALL YOU WANT. HE'S EATING HIS EGGS NOW. OM. ]
