Open Log

Characters: Britannia and yooou~
Format: action/prose
This log is: open
Location: Dock area in the evening, just before the sun sets.
Summary: Britannia's relaxing and has no one to bother. Yet.
Warnings: Nothing yet.

[Over on the dock, bare feet dangling over the edge, Britannia lays on her back with her pant legs rolled up and staring up at the darkening sky. Her shoes are next to her head, not that she seems to particularly care about them at the moment as she allows herself the undignified position in the absence of any human company. No, right now she's currently debating whether or not she should go bug Kiku or stay here and watch the stars come out. Surely there's no such thing as a curfew at this school, right? And especially not for her when she's a professor of all things.]

Oh, maybe I can get Kiku and we can watch the stars together. [The thought is brilliant, of course, a compromise. She could even get Antonio, Suzaku, Lelouch and England too. Except...] Hmm... they're probably all busy and it would take too much time to gather them up.

[Another sigh.] Oh well, I guess I'll just wait alone.

[Because you invited him to sit with you. And maybe he wanted to stick around, even if he's probably the worst person to converse with ever.

Dave stiffens at first. He's a little surprised at the sudden contact. He's not terribly used to people being like this to him, but he's finding out that it isn't so bad either. He fumbles a bit to type into the PDA.]

youre still a discard???
i imagine someone like you would have someone asking to vow with you by now

[It was a legitimate concern to him. No Weapon should be going around being a Discard. Shit is fucked up.]

[It's okay, cuddles are always good enough with this one.

The sudden PDA typing makes her blink and she looks expectantly at the screen, wondering what he suddenly had to say. Maybe he doesn't appreciate the physical contact? It wouldn't be the first time she'd gotten such a reaction.

But no, it regards to the game. The statement makes her laugh a little, because she agrees. Who wouldn't want her? She's one of the strongest empires in the history of her world. Maybe she doesn't have any upgrades, but that shouldn't matter, right? For the moment she's pitted her current state on the fact that she doesn't really know any of the players of Fortitude.

Well, she knows England, but she sadly couldn't find him today, so another time perhaps.]

Yep. [She shows him the back of her hand to accent that answer.] But it's okay, I'll find someone sooner or later.

[He actually really appreciates it. It doesn't show on his face, but the fact he doesn't move or anything is a pretty good indication.

He doesn't know much about her, but she didn't seem like the type who'd get thrown away or would take being thrown away. That was a good trait to have. He would consider asking her himself. He didn't mind. He already hit the winning conditions of having six, so having a seventh probably wouldn't be any worst. But she probably wanted someone older with more experience and didn't get their ass kicked like last round. So he doesn't. Maybe she had someone in mind that will vow to her. But he wanted that to be sooner then later then.]

do you have someone in mind???
its bullshit to treat people like trash
just because a player didnt vow with them yet
its fucked up

Hmm... I guess so, I haven't really thought about it. [That's a response in regards to his complaints about this system. To her, this is just another test to see who can climb to the top. To separate the weak and undeserving from those who are better and stronger. As far as she's concerned, getting mad at the system is merely an attempt to justify failure which she refuses to do.]

I'm thinking about someone, but I haven't been able to find him. [Her tone is thoughtful, almost a little disappointed, before she shrugs with a rueful look on her face.] He probably won't be any fun though, he's kind of cranky.

[Dave thinks it's just a shitty system. But there's a lot of shitty things about most places, so he's not even surprised.

He tilts his head. She wonders who she'd be asking.]

fucker should stop being an elusive prick then
i bet you can make him lighten up
or something
but if youre hungry
i can get you food

[Well, if she has someone in mind, he won't step on any toes. But he can still offer to get her food that isn't whatever the Discards are getting. That shit is gross.]

[Dave calling England an elusive prick on top of a fucker makes her burst out laughing. It's less the actual insult and the face she's imagining he would make at these random insults from a person he's (probably) never even met before. Have a shoulder bump, Dave.] Even I've got limits.

[And then a pause because... an idea!] But you're a player, aren't you? Why don't we just vow instead? It'd be easier.

[Dave obviously has no manners. If England and him met...well that would be a meeting that would just end in swearing and fighting. Although England fighting with a kid is always kind of funny.

He tilts his head.]

if you want to vow with me
i dont mind vowing
youll get all your rights
and people can suck my fucking dick if they give you shit

[That is one meeting Britannia wants to be present for, if only because Dave seems like a pretty cool guy and England is a cranky old man who does nothing but drink tea and whine.]

Does that mean you'd fight them? [Sorry, crude speech is slightly foreign to her in their more "subtle" meanings.]

[It would end terribly. And no one would be sure who it would end terribly for, honestly.]

yeah
thats one way of putting it
so will you be my weapon???
this vowing shit is kind of corny btw

[Seriously. He's thinking of all the ironic ways to vow. He's already done some really fucked up version of a wedding vow to someone else.]

Yep! And I don't think it's that bad, just kind of annoying. [Though the country whose emperors routinely give long winded speeches might not be the best judge.

As the sign forms on her hand, she picks it up, glances at it and grins, showing it to Dave.] All done!

it gets kind of stupid
when you have to continuously vow
to everyone or something
theres only so many ways i can spice this up
and not everyone approves
of being vowed like a blushing maiden about to get married

[He's not sure how he's ended up vowing so many times honestly. But hey, his Sis would be proud that he's actually being semi friendly. He's been pretty sassy to a lot of people honestly.]

Hmm? How do you do something like that? [It's pretty basic, isn't it? "I'll protect you" and "thanks," right? It's not like it's that difficult.]

apparently vowing
is pretty loose
so i guess as long as it sounds like a vow and both parties agree
it works
so shit gets kind of ridiculous

[Seriously. His vows are all over the place.]

So you make it sound like a marriage proposal?

[Dave shrugs. He didn't see why not. Who takes a thirteen year-old seriously anyways?]

seemed like a good idea

[You'd be surprised.]

Did you get down on one knee?

nope
i dont think he was quite ready for that type of commitment
it was like we just met
didnt want to overwhelm him

[And it's just really unromantic to having to text to make such a vow.]

It would have left a lasting impression at least. [And she grins at that, briefly leaning away to snag her shoes so she can start putting them on. Since evaporation and gravity took care of the water, her feet are actually pretty cold now, to the point of being numb.]

i think i scared him last week
so im pretty sure my impression will last for a fucking while
its not often people meet someone who cant make much noise anyways
im pretty unforgettable as is

[Oh right, it's freezing. Dave moves to get up, rubbing his arms a little. Shit. He really hopes the weather warms up sooner then later.]

[Her shoes on and her pant legs straightened, Britannia follows Dave up shortly afterward and watches him rub his arms, obviously still feeling the chill. After a minute of debate, she finally decides that it's okay to bend the rule a little bit today. Just this once in celebration of meeting someone new.

Calmly undoing the buttons for her vest, she drops it over his shoulders, figuring the size difference should make up for the chill the armholes would let in. Though the chill does bother her, she figures she'll be able to weather it better. After all, she's never been sick in her entire existence.]

I guess so. Next time we should come out with tea and blankets. [Because there will be a next time, right?]

[He glances up at her when he feels the vest draped over him. She keeps doing things that surprise him. Or maybe he's just not used to other adults being like this towards him (not that he usually talked to any outside of his sister).

He does smile a little.]

how about the roof???
shits pretty bitchin up there

You found a way onto the roof? [Well it's not like she's looked particularly hard herself, mostly because it never really occurred to her. But now that she thinls about it... the roof could be quiet convenient to watch stars together. It's close by, it can fit lots of people and so long as you're not afraid of heights...

She grins.] Sounds like fun.

[He nods. It was one of the first things he did. He was used to getting to the roofs that not having a sure way to get to it would have bothered him.]

its fucking chill up there

You mean it's cool? [Are they talking hip lingo or temperatures?]

technically both
i mean cool
but it can get chilly up there too

[Better put his hip lingo app to standby.]
