“Well I’m glad I can trust you,” They tried to wipe their face free from any drool discreetly, “I know you wouldn’t try to pull anything on me.”

*; “ of course not. you’re my frie---roommate. ”

   Dinah was walking on campus after her class ended, it was a nice day and was in a very good mood ( but like she wasn’t most days ). As she was walking she noticed a figure walking a little far ahead of her, she found the male very familiar and she peered her eyes as she wondered who it could be.

And then she realized. It was Cri-kee, instantly her smile got bigger and she started jogging towards him “ Cri-kee !! “ she called hoping to grab attention as she hurried over to him

[ctrlkee-blog]

*; he turned almost instantly when his odd name was shot through the air, knowing it would be a friend, as his name wasn’t particularly one strangers would know ( given his quiet nature ). to find it was dinah, rushing towards him with a smile possessing her cheeks.

“ oh?! ” it took a moment, but a smile the size of the girls, quickly appeared on his own blushing features. “ dinah! is that you? woah!! ”

though she was no stranger to the way the university worked, ortensia knew hardly anything about its layout. sure, she’d seen it’s surface     ( pristine through its walls and the gardens that wove around the facility. )       but was she no friend to deeper cracks that were hidden from the naked eye.      she stood up, the scratch of the chair against the floor drawing gazes around before losing them and the smile that drew itself against her lips was a bit brighter.  «  then we can go around and discover it together! i know some places and other’s we’ll just have to go and see. deal?  »

*; usually, cri-kee would have hesitated at such a broad proposal, but time was running thin swiftly, so he too bounced up to feet, ready to dig any miles yonder. “ mmhmm! deal! ” he nodded in agreement, a hand sticking out as if he were wanting to seal their intentions with a little more than word. “ oh, i know some places too! just not very exciting ones --- maybe we should start at your places and look around to start? ”

“What do you get when you drop a piano down a mineshaft? A flat miner.“ The key smash following this horrible pun just added to Mushu’s idiocy. He had found the piano on his way to class and just couldn’t resist bothering the people around with some music related puns.

[ctrlkee-blog]

*; a smile drawn out by pure amusement ( courtesy the other male and his perfectly timed piano joke ) tickled across the cheeks of the relatively quiet male, as he took a step toward the instrument. hovering in silence for a moment, cri-kee slowly pulled his palm to the keys, before copying the action that had produced the noise the joker had done seconds ago. “ hey, that’s pretty clever. ” he commented, genuine in tone, with a giggle at the end.

“Don’t they have brakes, so it doesn’t do that though?”

*; “ even brakes can break. would you really want to risk it? ”

“I wasn’t asleep-honest.” Ping rubbed their eyes, “Just…. Meditating.”

[ctrlkee-blog]

*; “ it’s okay if you were sleeping, though. ” he smiled. “ just so you know. ”

❛  oh, but there’s so much you could do outside !  ❜  already could she imagine the air, perfumed with the scent of different flowers, sunlight beaming through the cracks in the leaves and the clouds that puffed different forms. the outside; an area of solace away from work and other assignments.      head cocked to the smile, ortensia couldn’t hold the benignity of her smile back at his question, chime-like giggles pouring before her answer.  ❛  do you want to come outside with me ? it’s an open invitation, unless you’d rather sit here and work !  ❜  company was more than well received seeing as the brunette adored the attention       — —      however, ortensia would never mention so.

*; she seemed to have it all figured out --- or rather, she appeared to know more of the world’s unexplored nooks and crannies, than his timid self did. and while skeptical and hesitant, a smile slithered onto an otherwise cautious expression. “ i’ll come with you, because i’m sure it’d be better than studying this again, but... you’d have to show me! all the things outside to do, because i really have no idea. i’m inside most of the time. ”

“Pretty small, yeah.” Skye nodded. “And yeah, I am asking if you want to.”

*; “ so i wouldn’t be imposing? ”

“It’s got to work, right? Our jumping will just push the elevator down with each jump. Makes sense to me. Fester would probably know better though.”

*; “ you know... i don’t think that’s how it’ll work. ” he mumbled, slowly raising his gaze to the other. “ i think, if we jump too much, it’ll just break and we will just --- drop. ”

dinax:

       Dinah was glad that it made sense, it often hard to be a quiet person and not liking to be alone. In the library you had to be quiet and people would just do the stuff they had to do but still be around their peers.

She listened to him speak about his room and she couldn’t help but to smile more when he invited her to come over if she was bored of coming to the library all the time and Dinah was sure that she would take on that offer “ I would love too and I’ll keep that in mind. Your room sounds very nice, are you close with your roommate ? “ she asked though she had the feeling that he was

*; the boy knotted his fingers together, visibly fidgety. sure, he was a quiet boy who liked to relax and take things slow. but cri-kee had an energy within him that would always jitter through his veins when the nerves were there.

she was just being nice. “ me and ping? are we close? ” he questioned rhetorically, having to think about it. cri-kee would have loved to say yes. he and ping were both from china, and they seemed to respect each others space, which was something he appreciated --- but cri-kee could only wish they were closer. he respected his fellow senior, and admired their talent. “ not really, but ping’s nice. ”

mvp-reflection:

“Dinah?” Ping looked back at them, a curious look on their face, “Making friends while I’m gone?” A teasing smile grew on their lips, as they watched him, “If trouble happens, I’ll protect you. Hopefully it won’t come to that. Ever. But I’m looking forward to this. It’s been a while since I’ve had something to look forward to.”

*; “ oh --- i suppose. ” ping was obviously teasing, but an embarrassed blush crept on his features anyway. cri-kee regretted mentioning anything about dinah, especially now that he was most definitely going out with his roommate. “ good! i know you can protect me, and that makes me feel better about this. ” with a sheepish smile, he began to lead aimlessly. “ i’m just sorry all i can do is guide you. ”

Red didn’t know exactly what the boy meant when he said he knew he could win, maybe just high hopes that he was lucky? “Do you do thngs that get people in trouble a lot? I can kind of understand that. I do a lot of stuff that usually gets myself in trouble.”

*; a lot? “ bù, bù, bù! ” the boy stuttered, his thoughts unclear and incapable of finding a way to explain what he was meaning, without having to state exactly what he needed to. “ ah no --- maybe... i used to. ” cri-kee shook his head, pained by his nerves. really just wanting to rid himself of the cards. “ i try not to get anyone in trouble. ”

[hermes-kharmophron-blog]

“Sure, we could just wait for help to come, but what if …” His face lit up with what he thought was a brilliant idea to make the elevator go down to the bottom floor and to stop them from being stuck in there. “…we start to jump?”

[ctrlkee-blog]

*; something about the idea the man ( cri-kee regrettably remembered from a near-death experience, involving a stolen bow and an arrow ) didn’t exactly sound right---... but he was a follower, and had no suggestions to replace the stupid one that had been made, so he, with the most uncertain expression and shifting eyes, shrugged. “ i don’t know. ”

Stitch was leaning on the counter at the bakery as he discussed his problem with the person in charge. “I’m just saying there should be one day a year where a person should be able to get free cake. Like on a particularly bad day or birthday or on a bad birthday.” He hung his head. “C’mon help me out here. I’m troubled and need desserts.”

[ctrlkee-blog]

*; cri-kee was troubled too. least that would explain how he’d ended up with a full box of popsicles sitting next to a pile of tiresome writings he’d been studying nonstop, the last few hours, as catch up. of course --- a stranger had just sat the box down momentarily. but how was he supposed to know? “ you can have some. they’re not mine. ” he shrugged.

“I said I’d throw a party if I found out what happened, so I invited my friends Jack Daniels, Jim Beam, Captain Morgan, and some other guys. It’s as much of a party as I’m really used to. Care to join us?”

[ctrlkee-blog]

*; “ so it’s only a small party? i --- don’t see why i can’t join, if you’re really asking, if i want to. ”

❛  WOULDN’T YOU RATHER GO OUT THAN STAY HERE…  ❜  benignity silken in her tones though she spoke to no one in particular      ——     anyone that would care to listen was most appreciated though. the zephyr  and the bright sun were the perfect combination for picnics or otherwise any sort of outside activity and there she was stuck, book lay open in front of her though she did not know what it spoke off.      the homework she’d been putting off seemed so much more daunting now, though still, ortensia couldn’t help but wish she was anywhere but there.  ❛  it doesn’t even look too hot or anything… perfect weather for going outside !  ❜     /     OPEN.

[ctrlkee-blog]

*; “ maybe. ” cri-kee mumbled with a light hum in his throat. eyes fixed on the world out the window that truly did look appealing to mind. “ but i don’t really know what i would want to do outside. ” of course, the sophomores words weren’t as easy to swallow as he had first anticipated. a childlike silence filling his thoughts, as nerves of steel tickled his throat and brought sweat to his palms. “ do you — are you asking if i want to, uh, go outside with you? ” cri-kee even laughed. he was still unaccustomed to the bold nature of the people at avenir. “ or... nevermind me. i don’t know what i’m saying. ”
