If you know Lucy-san...or, I suppose her name is Kaede-san...

Please, I want to speak with you.

I want to know who this person is within my mind...



[ private to Tezcatlipoca ]

Tezcatlipoca-san, may I have a moment of your time?

[ He claps her on the shoulder. ]

Don't worry! They're edible. Probably.

[saudadist]

[ She looks up at him with DOUBT written all over her features. ]

Have you tried it?

[gundemn]

[ Well...no, he gave his share away. He's morbidly curious what it tastes like. Earthians really put everything in their food. Plus, when she looks at him like that, it's like he has no choice. ]

Why don't you have the lollipop and I'll try the scorpion for you.

[ Famous last words— ]

[ Nyuu almost lets the relief show on her face. Almost, but the sudden pang of guilt about making him eat something like that brings her to a screeching halt. She can't just do that! She can't act like a spoiled brat and make him eat something because she doesn't want to! That's not fair!

It doesn't occur to her that it'd involve an indirect kiss, but the scorpion makes it hard to really focus on that particular tidbit. ]

N-No! I'll try it!

[ She shoves the scorpion lollipop into her mouth and...tries to break it in half with her teeth. Is this a good idea? Absolutely not, and she's cringing the whole time. But she can at least eat half of the thing!! That should be fine...right? ]

[gundemn]

—Hold on, Nyuu. You don't have to...I wasn't serious. I don't think Earthians really eat this stuff.

[ Elan wheezes as he puts up his hands in front of him, trying not to break up with laughter. He didn't expect her to start gnawing on the lollipop. She's so cute. While Nyuu's tackling the treat with a vengeance that's commendable, he can see it's stressing her out, which is sorta the opposite of what he wanted when he sought her out. She's such an earnest girl, he knows she would keep at it if he didn't say something. ]
