[ after breakfast as usual and everyone breaks to hang out with their deadzos, vi can find strohl standing with his hands on his hips in the starlight hotel lobby. this place is fancy af.
[ she is being... careful here, because she was told not to open doors. but she'll wander up to him absently. she looks like she feels a little better injuries wise, though her leg is still a bit borked. the burns are mostly scars at this point. ]
[ there's a brief, warm emotionshare burst of fondness and affection. hewwo ]
Trying to find the best venue. We've got that mission about the party - lord knows I'll have to organise them eventually, so I thought I'd try my hand at it.
[ ouuHHGH that kicks her ass, as usual, but this time he gets to feel it. like being hit with a baseball bat, and then the like, big, big emotions of fondness and affection in return. she loves you, strohl... ]
Oh. Yeah. [ am I going to have to go to parties... ] You thinking something fancy?
[ GROSS... CUTE... he gets a little flustered at this actually but those same fond emotions are returned, and he rubs the back of his neck. god. okay. anyway. ]
Yes, I was thinking so. [ a beat. ] And that'd just be bizarre - do I look like that damn cafe? No, we can find something plenty bespoke for you.
Anyway. I thought it might be a fine occasion for us to gather some solidarity before this is all said and done. Inevitably, it'll all go to hell halfway through, but I'm fully expecting it.
but she comes up to lean on him, because everything week includes affection and she's already a monster about it. it's worse now! ]
Could be fun. I've never been to a rich person shindig before. [ looks around them at the hotel... ] People are gonna throw curses at each other and get drunk and cause scenes, but it's alright. That's half the fun, with this group.
[ HE'LL JUST SAY IT, he's a noble and extremely into nobility but also, his extended family low key sucks as do many nobles. also his last party was louis' soiree so. ] But it's the people that make them awful, not the gatherings themselves. So, I think we'll have a good time, if I can find a good spot for it.
[ he doesn't seem to mind this, though - the affection bleeds easy, so he leans against her a bit too, wincing a little? don't worry about it, and there's a slightly crooked smile. ]
I did. Was nice to see everyone again - some moreso than others. [ a little pink around the ears. ] You?
It wouldn't have happened if she weren't cursed - we really do have a deal. Look, I'm not saying it's not insane, I agree it's insane. Yesterday was insane. But it's fine. I got her back anyway - not with a knife, or anything, but we were all just scrapping by the end of it.
-- Yes! Right there, came out of the damn plane, I came to say hello and made the fool's mistake of a handshake and he yanked me in and - do you know how many times this has happened to me in this place?! Twice! Two bloody times that I've been ATTACKED by someone acting deranged and running off to plant kisses on someone else for no bloody reason! That's too many times!
This was all Anders' damn fault, he got it into their heads faffing about that kissing led to points - which, the worst part of it was it was a damn achievement afterwards, AFTER he was fooling around making these jokes in his letter! Which he didn't have to suffer the consequences of! Do you know who had to suffer the consequences?! I did! Because Nanase decided to run with it!
