The Midnight Prince

[Rokag]

"Yeah, I...know a little. Especially since he isn't...cautious about who knows about him." Rokag wasn't sure he WANTED to freak out about that entire thing again...or to Saiya...or to anyone else, really. She liked the idea of seeming somewhat ignorant of the mess she was in so no one would expect her to try and get out of it. "But I don't know why he's even worried....He...wouldn't have people listening by the door, would he?!"

[GamesMaster]

"He's not... overly fond of my brother," she says quietly. "Tsukikage is protective for a reason."

[Rokag]

"Don't think he's fond of anyone." Rokag blinked. "Shiit..um..I mean.." Rokag was just...way too comfortable. She was NOT meaning to say that out loud.

[GamesMaster]

She gives a wan smile. "Not particularly, no. So, um, did you have questions?"

[Rokag]

How do I get out of this conversation? Rokag was...pretty sure that she wasn't going to get totally out of this without SOMETHING happening or being said...HEH! "Is it...true that they're always supposed to be...that big?"

[GamesMaster]

Seiya raises her eyebrows. "Ummmmm welllll I can't exactly-- I'm not exactly-- I've never-- umm-- yes?"

[Rokag]

"Oh...um...okay." She looked away for a moment to try and cover her grin, covering the action with trying to clear her throat. "Um...well, Is...is there something I should...do? I mean, after...things happen? To make it...um...easier to be sure?"

[GamesMaster]

"Ah. They, um, they suggest lying on your back for a while, instead of standing right away?" she offers. "Or um, there is tea I can get you, that might help things along."

[Rokag]

"Should... should I drink the tea before or after?" If this has to happen, I might as well make sure it's not a big fucking problem. "And...so. I should probably mention that I haven't....with anyone else. I mean, before now...fuck, this also isn't working right. Look, I know that it's...weird that I even know what most of the parts do, but I didn't want you to...not still want to bake, so I thought that'd make it clear."

[GamesMaster]

"Before," she says quietly. "I don't-- I don't expect-- look, I don't really... I like you. You're a little, um, rough around the edges, but I do enjoy baking with you. Let's just agree that... no matter what happens with my brother, we'll be friends. Alright?"

[Rokag]

What dies she mean by that?! Sure, She can be off-putting. She's definitely not quiet or little or whatever it is that people think is attractive, but what was she worried about happening with her brother that WOULDN'T get her killed?

"Um...sure. I mean it's a useful thing to know, even if extra eggs shouldn't make it flatter." Which, of course, is true when it's not double the amount of eggs and you're trying to make a cake.

"...but yeah. I'll...I guess I'll have to try talking to him before...things next time."

[GamesMaster]

Seiya nods. "Just... let me know if I can help?"

[Rokag]

"Sure...uh...and I guess....if you have the same problem you can ask me?" Not that Rokag REALLY wanted to try being in the opposite position. But....I mean it'd basically be 'So, you figured out how fucking works, right?'

[GamesMaster]

She nods, smiling. "Of course. Please have a good evening."

[Shisou]

When Shisou stumbles in three quarters of an hour later, he has an easy smile, cradling Carbonne in two hands, but his eyes are puffy, as though he's been crying. "Good evening."
