[ CLOSED ] I should give a little warning

[of_the_highest_caliber]

Characters: Akiha, Katina, and Subaru
Date: 11/07
Summary: Katina makes her grand return to society!
Warnings: Drama? Who knows...

[ Subaru had been looking forward to today. Is that odd of her? Probably so, but it couldn't be helped. She had tried so very hard the past couple of days to not worry about Katina out alone in the wilderness, just as the cyborg had promised, but there's only so much she can put off a feeling like that. Working out, doing maintenance, and exploration can only distract her so much.

Soon as she heard the knock at the door that late morning, Subaru set down her polishing rag and jogged through her open room door to open the front one. She smiled, taking one quick look at the woman's condition before greeting her proper. ] Welcome back, Katina.

Comments

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Akiha just made a contemplative sound at that last comment. She didn't have an answer for that. Just look at Katina and Kris, after all.]

Did you tell her your feelings for me?

[grandtheftmecha]

Yeah. Both of you... need to know that I love both of you. [ She knows Akiha's going to be jealous; but she has that right, maybe. ]

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Akiha is indeed going to be jealous. She's a jealous, possessive bitch and knows it.]

And have you told her that you're going to pursue me?

[grandtheftmecha]

I think I was clear enough about it, but I'll make sure.

...and hopefully I don't screw it up again.

[ritsu_kouyou]

If you screw it up again, you're not going to get another chance. Just to be clear.

[grandtheftmecha]

I don't expect another chance, so I'll... work pretty hard at not being a dumbass.

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Akiha looked out the window for a long moment.]

You know, I'm not going to make this easy on you. So, don't disappoint me.

[grandtheftmecha]

I won't.

[ Katina sighed, turning away. ]

Is my stuff here?

[ritsu_kouyou]

It is wherever you left it. Though I cannot say if Kris has gone through it or not.

[grandtheftmecha]

Kinda hope I don't run into her too soon.

[ritsu_kouyou]

I will be talking to her, rest assured. There are a few things for us to discuss.

[grandtheftmecha]

Gotcha. Make sure she doesn't turn me into a frog and blow me up or something.

[ritsu_kouyou]

That's entirely up to you.

[grandtheftmecha]

Right, right. I won't give her a reason to hurt me again.

[ritsu_kouyou]

...thank you. [Akiha looked back over and offered a tiny smile.]

Go ahead and go. I'll be okay.

[grandtheftmecha]

[ Katina smiled, just slightly, over her shoulder as well. ]

Alright. Do you want any sandwiches? Subaru made a ton.

[ritsu_kouyou]

I'm not hungry right now. [Not with the way her stomach is all knotted up over this conversation.] I'll have something later.

[grandtheftmecha]

Suit yourself. I'm gonna... eat or something, and then make sure my stuff's in order.

[ This is good. She can work with this. They can all work with this. ]

[ritsu_kouyou]

Mm.

[Akiha picks up her cold tea, takes a sip, makes a face, then sets it down and goes back to looking out the window. Yes, that pretty much was a dismissal.]
