[ sighs heavily ]

Yeah... Who'd've guessed they'd have so few of them?
huntressinred: (but why tho)

[ god almighty the way "squirt" just jumpscared me in my inbox ]

Wouldn't they just kick us out?
huntressinred: (but why tho)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-06-14 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
...huh.

So we can just...walk out with a huge pile of these toy sharks?

[ sounds fake ]
huntressinred: (content)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-06-15 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm. Still...I could build a mattress out of these over a few days.
huntressinred: (satisfied)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-06-15 07:54 am (UTC)(link)
So how many toy sharks are you sleeping on right now, then?
huntressinred: (baffled)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-06-16 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
What? What do penguins have to do with it?

So it's your teammate who doesn't have a bed?
huntressinred: (worrying judgmentally)

[ we are on: a gondola in the canals! how did they end up sharing one? well, there's a shortage of gondolas right now, and a lot of people trying to get around, so they're not letting single riders on, so oh no, and they were gondolamates!!

Anyway a few minutes into the ride, as led by one of the shadow people: ]


Okay, I admit it, this is cute...but this water's gotta be super dirty, right? [ she leans over to peer at it ]
huntressinred: (talking2)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-06-20 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
[ NOT SAFE TO SWIM IN? FROM HARU 'SQUIRT' FREE!?????

anyway Val looks closer and sees the fish swimmin around, barely visible through the rippling water ]


Yeah, but animals can survive in some crazy toxic environments. Those could be mutant fish.
huntressinred: (slashface emoji)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-06-20 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
You gonna reach in and grab one?
huntressinred: (UHHHH)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-06-21 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ HE ACTUALLY DID IT? AND SUCCEEDED??!?!

Val is so taken aback by this that she jolts back in her seat, sending the gondola rocking a little ]
huntressinred: (scream)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-06-22 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ okay well you can't just give me the option of throwing a fish onto her and expect me NOT to take it

it slaps her in the face and she immediately starts yelling and panicking, rocking the boat even further as she tries to catch the flopping fish in her own hands

Once she manages it eventually, she absolutely yeets it back at him like she's pitching a fastball ]
huntressinred: (wary2)

w2, saturday

[ aggressively bites into a popsicle as she sits overlooking the canals. She feels terrible. But when she sees Haru she just kind of. tenses up awkwardly for a second. ]

Hey.
huntressinred: (wary)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-02 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
[ i knew it would C8

the question kind of startles and confuses her a little. ]


What? No. I mean--you can if you want, but it's not like I'm going to make you leave. If you want to stay.
huntressinred: (what am i gonna do)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-02 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
[ her vibes are getting increasingly confused ]

I'm...fine?

[ edit: (narrator's voice) she is not. her vibes beyond the confusion are still bad. ]
Edited 2023-07-02 05:50 (UTC)
huntressinred: (bored)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-02 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ looks off into the canals, almost muttering to herself: ]

...just didn't think you'd want to be around me.
huntressinred: (hmm)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-03 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
Kind of seems like it would be.

[ gives him A Look. she is still confused but now the tiniest bit of suspicion is there too ]

...are you sure you didn't get cursed too?
huntressinred: (reconsidering)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-03 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
No. Just...having a hard time believing anyone could be that...nice.
huntressinred: (aww that's cute)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-03 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ snorts, amused ]

And yet, I'm still regularly disappointed.
huntressinred: (beleaguered sigh)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-03 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm. Maybe.
huntressinred: (surrounded by idiots)

[ we are here at the mime-a mia! Valerie watches the mimes in confusion ]

This business model can't possibly work.
huntressinred: (baffled judging)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-05 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
You're...actually planning to eat in front of them?
huntressinred: (but why tho)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-05 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
You're not bothered by them staring at you?

[ the mimes are currently staring at them as though pressed up against a glass window like desperate hungry dogs seeing a T-bone steak indoors ]
huntressinred: (really man)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-05 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
[ okay for real? that's impressive. anti-mime tactics. ]

Because...it's uncomfortable?

Does it seriously not bother you?
huntressinred: (what am i gonna do)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-07 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
Because I still have to look at them staring at me?
huntressinred: (humoring you)

[personal profile] huntressinred 2023-07-07 06:34 am (UTC)(link)
That easy, huh.

[ she tears her eyes off the mimes to look at the menu and then orders like...idk, the fanciest expensive-sounding coffee drink. so like...i guess also a type of latte? i don't know coffee ]
