ITP: Landmines [Event/Canon]

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

[Have Kyoko, ice cream cone of some esoteric flavor in hand, walking the halls. She's not stalking for boys to hit on for laughs for once because, well, even she has moments where she's not up to it. It takes a lot of energy to be on the GOGOGO and cheerful as much as she is. Only Namine, being her roommate, has seen her in her quieter moments.

Then again, not a lot of people notice Kyoko at all in her quieter moments. That's how rare they are.

It only figures things would go screwy during one of said quiet moments.]

["Well here's something you don't see too often. I'm almost afraid to approach in case it's a trap or something. Still, it's almost too good an opportunity to resist."]

Hey, Kyoko. Haven't chatted with you for a bit. How's it going?

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

[She looks up and waves at him. No, there is seriously nothing going on with her right now. She's just low on energy right now.]

Okay. Tired after running into all those boys!

[AKA She exhausted herself hitting on them all.]

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

["Which means you got exhausted after hitting on them all. ...why do I feel like I just repeated something?"]

You must be having a blast with all the new arrivals then.

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

[Stop copying me.]

Yep! One of them even asked for my autograph!

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

Your autograph? No offense, but why would somebody want your autograph?

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

Because he's a fan of one-three-four to the point he wants to transfer in!

[X-brand ice cream in the most unlikely of locations: the paperwork filing room... Given how odd the request itself was, why would Kyoko refuse? Irisu sent the letter keeping in mind Kyoko's nature after a bit of asking around and research. The filing room itself was one of the largest rooms in the compound given how a bureaucracy like this liked keeping busy with paperwork. Not only that, but it was the least likely place to see large groups of people let alone anybody else.

With the bait having been set, Irisu waits with a cone of chocolate lamprey-flavored ice cream in one hand and... a stocking in another.]

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

[Naturally, she goes to the paperwork filing room. The whole thing absolutely reeked of being a trap, but Kyoko figures no one would be stupid enough to try something so obvious while CO is as crowded as it is right now.

Oh boy, is she about to be proved wrong.

Her previous esoteric cone of ice cream done with, she heads to the filing room. She's had regular lamprey ice cream, and strawberry swirl lamprey ice cream, but she's never had the chocolate. So.... it can't hurt to check it out.]

Hello~? It's me! I'm here for the ice cream!

[rabbitscoughmed.livejournal.com]

[Kyoko enters the room. Irisu is in plain sight right in front of her. She had no reason to hide. From her research, Kyoko isn't someone who had the strength to fight back against a blunt weapon.

The bunny witch approaches the girl and stretches the arm that carried the chocolate-flavored lamprey ice cream, gesturing her to take it.]

Hello, Kyoko.

I wanted to talk to you in under more casual circumstances.

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

[Oh, hey! It's the Bunny-Witch from earlier! With the promised ice cream! Awesome!

She takes the ice cream and--ew.

Okay, yeah. Chocolate, like the strawberry swirl, does not make the lamprey taste any better. But she's going to soldier through it just to prove she can.

Why would a stranger give her ice cream? Unless....]

Are you another fan from one of the other divisions?

[THIS IS PERFECTLY LOGICAL!!!]

[rabbitscoughmed.livejournal.com]

... No. This is my first time here.

[Irisu questioned why anybody would be strange enough to even try a flavor like that, but regardless, it obviously fit her tastes to get her to see her.]

I wanted to ask... What's your relation to Satoru Uujishima?

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

Nothing. He's just a guy I talked to.

[Plain, simple, and honest.]

[catdrawer.livejournal.com]

[Uuji almost walks past, not having too fond a recollection of last time. However, upon noticing her mood, he stops and waves.]

[It's rather against his nature, really, but he's been in an extremely good mood since Irisu arrived. He'd spend more time with her, but that's not really how their relationship (or lack thereof) works.]

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

[Kyoko turns and walks alongside him. At this point in time, she isn't going anywhere and she might as well see how he reacts to her walking alongside him.]

[catdrawer.livejournal.com]

I'm... um, I'm sorry about earlier.

[The drawings, the awkwardness, Irisu leaving without a word... he knows how all of that must've looked.]

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

What about it? It was fun.

[The awkwardness, the drawings, it's the sort of stuff Kyoko finds amusing as heck.]

[catdrawer.livejournal.com]

You... really think so?

[Well, that's the first time he has them described that way. It still gets him nervous about what it could do to his already-shaky reputation, but it's also somewhat nice to have someone besides Irisu who enjoys them.]

[sweet16days.livejournal.com]

*Hey, Kyoko, meet someone even younger than you are. Also with an ice cream cone. But this one looks like it's moving.*

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

[Naturally, she latches.]

Ooooh! What kind is that?

[sweet16days.livejournal.com]

Huh? It's just regular ice scream, like they make in my world.

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

I've never seen ice cream like that, though! Can I have a taste? And you can give mine a try?

[sweet16days.livejournal.com]

Is that okay? Sure! *offers cone* I love trying new things, anyway!

[gokaiger-red.livejournal.com]

[Sure, let's throw Marvelous at her and see what happens. He's walking down the hall toward Kyoko, though he's caught up in trying to figure out how his communicator works.]

[He's not having an easy time.]

[kyoko-flirts.livejournal.com]

[She, being a nosy busybody even when lacking energy like this, turns on her heel and falls in step with him.]

New guy?

[gokaiger-red.livejournal.com]

[Marvelous doesn't look up yet, though he's making annoyed faces at the piece of tech. It keeps making error noises.]

Yeah.
