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.]

Oh. I don't. I'm okay with cats.

Y-Yeah. I didn't expect it in the middle of the conversation.

[He doesn't acknowledge how much he hated the interruption at the time, but hey, Irisu's still around. He can still talk to her. Finding another person who likes the drawings almost makes it worth it.]

[She eats more of her ice cream as they walk.]

Sorry about that. It wouldn't have been as funny if I waited for an opening.

I understand. I have a friend who would have done the same.

I'm actually not the first person to draw things like that. There's an artist in Europe who does the same thing, but with rabbits.

I... guess you could say I'm trying to imitate him.

I'll have to give it a look sometime. They're morbid, but they're cute! Oh! Oh! You should try making them into pins and selling them around here for extra Plat! A bunch of people would eat them right up!

Councilor Deimonea suggested something similar. Maybe I'll actually try that someday.

[He glances at his sketchbook. Considering how it relieves stress, it's the one item he always carries with him. After a lot of consideration, he decides to take one of the loose pages out from it. Without a word, he offers it to Kyouko.]

...In case it ever catches on?

[She takes it gleefully as she looks over the bunnies.]

I'll hang it on my wall!

[Right next to where she's going to put the notice of her inevitable sexual harassment charge.]

[That's... not exactly very comforting, but oh well. Uuji smiles and nods.]
