“Cut it out.”
With the flat of his palm, Robin popped his good friend in the back of the head. Bap.
@juvenileking
“Hey, you didn’t have to do that, geez.” Not that it hurt, but it was uncalled for. Certainly. “Don’t tell me I accidentally hit a weak spot? Green, haven’t you become a bit too sensitive lately?”
“Ugh... Festivities are all fun and nice, especially if it comes with free drinks, but guess I’ve found my limit for the night.”
“Reached out to grab another beer and accidentally touched some girl’s breast. I even tried to apologize and explain myself but that really just earned me a slap. Can’t say I didn’t deserve it, but she could at least have gone easy on me.”
jksaber:
While expecting him to play along, what catches her off-guard is when he pulls out the charm even going so far as to touch her ( though it’s only her hair ) and act overly familiar. Usually, it’s her to be the one to initiate these things, so color her surprised that he has the gall to do something so bold! Not that she’s complaining, as she manages to compose herself enough to feign familiarity as if this were something that was usual for the both of them.
The threat of being shot at doesn’t please the man watching the both of them intently, in fact, there’s a look of vague fear that crosses his face as Billy threatens to shoot him if he were to interfere. While he’d chased her this far if she had someone like this boy at her side maybe it wasn’t worth it after all. And though Billy is definitely not one to look threatening at first, he had managed to put the fear of certain death into this man, who shakes his head before ducking back around the corner. He’s gone, given up the chase for now.
Suzuka, meanwhile, breathes a sigh of relief. That could have gone much worse than she’d anticipated. “Uhm…thanks, Billy-kun. I know it was sudden and probably out of nowhere, but thank you, really!” She hadn’t seen him in person, after all, just sent him a funny text. Yet here she was expecting him to play along. “You really meant it though, right? A second date?” She’d never gotten past the first with anyone. “I chose last time technically so like, you can this time around!”
“Eh--? Ah... Sure. Guess since we’re here now and I don’t really have anything to do, it won’t hurt, right?” Though unexpected, it’s hardly unpleasant. Being caught off guard is something an outlaw has to get used to, no matter whether it’s sheriffs and bounty hunters going after him, or a cute girl asking for a date. There’s a few places to consider, but a quick reminder brings him to check his phone for the hour and... -- yes. They’re just in time. “Alright. Come with me for a bit, ‘kay? It’s a surprise.”
The unfortunate part of it is that there wouldn’t be time to dress up, at least not without spoiling the surprise. But guiding both through alleyways and hidden passages as the sun finishes setting takes such worries out of his mind, and as the pair draws closer to the destination, a lively sound starts breaking the silence. There are lights into the distance, peeking through the many bamboos around them. Once they are close enough, then, the scenery opens up to reveal a small, friendly festival, much reminiscent of summer.
“Ohhh, so it does exist. Thank God... I was worried the rumor was all a made up lie and I ended up draggin' you nowhere.”
“The truth’s that a few folk I play with were talking about a secret youkai festival that was going to happen hidden in the Cotes Ward. It’s kinda out of the season, but I guess they like the festivities humans make a bit too much.” Summer has just ended, after all, but figures youkai wouldn’t quite care.
Billy dematerializes some of his clothing; the hat, jacket, scarf and waistcoat are hardly fitting. He is human, no less, no cute fox ears or tail to blend him well with the crowd as would be Suzuka’s case, clothing aside. With them being the only ( known ) infiltrators to the small festival, something about it feels quite personal. Intimate, even, but it’s appropriate. “Alright~! There’s a lot of booths to visit and things to do.” With a friendly smile on his face and an excited demeanor, the outlaw reaches for the fox’s hand, entwining their fingers rather casually. “Anywhere you want to go first? We have all night.”
havenochill:
“Woah–” Now there’s a sensation. She flinches as Billy’s hand squeezes along her ink-filled hair, a stray tentacle reflexively jerking to push the invader aside. “Um, well, this would be m– my first Halloween, but I’ve… Uh… Always wanted to…” Her voice trails off, a hot pink flush rising into her cheeks. Embarrassing!
“Oh, sorry, sorry.” Woah. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that her hair is sort of sentient but, there it is. It does just make him want to touch it more and more, but guess permission would come in handy. “Your first Halloween, huh~” She likely means that she has always wanted to participate in the holiday. Or dress up. Whichever it is, it’s cute. “Well, it’s my first Halloween too, so maybe we can enjoy it together! Do you know what you want to dress up as?”
havenochill:
“These are my regular duds, though…” She takes another look at herself, just to make sure she didn’t walk out of the apartment in something strange.
“Wha-- Really?! Is this actually part of you?” Nevermind this dude who’s all touchy-feely all up your tentacles, 8. No personal space whatsoever. “Huh, that’s pretty cool. So do you actually dress up for Halloween or...? Not that you’re scary. But it’d make a nice costume, y’know?”
havenochill:
“So… Halloween, right?” She’s not the best at starting a conversation.
“Mhm, Halloween’s pretty soon but... not that soon? Don’t you think you’re a bit early with your costume?”
suzuka told me that youre doing poly with her ?
“Hm? She did? ... Well, it’s not like we’re dating or anything, so I don’t see the issue of her goin’ on dates with me and with others. Is that really considered being ‘poly’ though... ?”
jksaber:
“It did bother me a little bit, but I’ve completely forgotten everything thanks to you. But y'know…”
“You can’t just go around saying stuff like that to me. It almost makes me wanna kiss you.”
“... Hey, now. That’s not somethin’ fair to say, you know? Geez.”
“Not that I mind it, ‘cause I don’t at all, but I just thought that if we were gonna do it one day, I would do it first. Did I totally miss the chance?”
jksaber:
“Oh? That’s pretty bold of you to say. Do you really think I’m the cutest fox, Billy-kun? You’re not just saying that to get on my good side, are you?”
“Because then I would have to admit that I can’t stop thinking about you. That’s only if you mean what you say, though!”
“Whaaat... Of course I mean it. I mean, anybody would have to take a single look at you to know that, you know.”
“... E-Either way. I was worried, that maybe all this ill talk about foxes would get to you. It didn’t, right? They’re nice and cute, just like you, so I hope it doesn’t end up hurtin’ you or anything.”
aqulus:
“I suppose. People do have a habit of discussing illicit content in public around here. I’ve never payed much offense to it,” a grunt and a sigh.
“I haven’t had much time to interact with the foxes. I just know of their existence - they’re fine. If I have the time, I’ll go visit.”
“Mhm mhm, you should. I’m sure they’ll appreciate it. Well, I’m not really sure if they find it offensive, hearing all these bad rumors being spread about them, but... it would be nice to have some opposing opinions, yeah?”
“It’s nice to find someone with good opinions for once, though. Name’s Billy! People like us have to stay together, don’t you think?”
jksaber:
“Finally someone with some sense, I knew I could count on you Billy-kun! Foxes are cute, aren’t they? Wish more people shared the sentiment.”
“Yup. They’re the cutest..-- oh, I can’t actually say that... There’s something cuter than foxes, actually.”
“I wonder if you can guess what it is, Suzuka-chan? Here’s a few hints: it has a cute voice, long orange hair, and it’s really friendly, too. Easy, right?”
aqulus:
“No clue.” A blunt response, typical of the sleuth.
“Sometimes the human mind fixates on things rather obscure. …such as foxes, in this case. I wouldn’t pay too much mind to it.”
She did have to concur quietly that foxes, were indeed, cute.
“‘Obscure’, you say... Well, with the way this talk is going, I can see it. At least people here aren’t going off about kissing or dating or worse this time, right?”
Not that he’s against any of it, but hey, it’s surprising. “I guess foxes choose who to be nice to. I’ve been treated pretty well by them so far, so I can’t see them as anything but cute. It’s the same for you, yeah?”
“Huh? Why is everybody talkin’ about foxes?”
“It’s almost like you guys haven’t seen one, despite having a literal village of them just in the nearby ward. ... Well, they’re pretty cute, so I understand. In fact, aren’t they a bit too cute? I can’t see how they could be bad.”
scyphozoas:
Bortz looked at him like had grown a second head when he called out all the numbers. Only one was off, but the fact he managed to guess two out of three right spooked them. “How…?” They showed him the five and seven card they had. They looked at the deck then back at Billy. How did he know? “You weren’t looking…!”
Only half right, huh. Well, getting a surprised reaction from getting all right had been what Billy was looking for, but this one is great, too. Had they never seen those kind of tricks before? Or rather... well, that’s just cheating, really.
“Now now, if I explained how I did that, it wouldn’t be fun, right? We can do another, if you want. You can even pick more cards, to make it harder for me~”
scyphozoas:
Bortz hesitantly takes three cards from the deck and looks at them, then back at the strange human. “What do I do now?”
Hoho. Those were good choices. To keep the air of mystery, Billy glances over his deck, thoughtful, and replaces the far left card on the other’s hand with another he had just picked.
“There. I don’t know which cards you picked, but now you have a five, six and seven in your hand, right~?”
“Oh-- you over there. Yes, you. Mind comin’ here for a bit? You look like someone who could be Lady Luck’s favorite.”
"Indulge me for a bit, ‘kay? Pick three out of these ten cards. Any is fine.”
jksaber:
No, no, no this was bad, well more annoying than bad, but still bad all the same. Sure, people had been persistent in chasing after her before but never like this. She understood very well that she was irresistibly cute, but there was a limit to just how much she liked being sought after. Especially when it came to people she wasn’t interested in at all. He was greasy, disheveled, and not her type at all by a long shot. For one reason or another this guy had taken a liking to her, talk about a stalker type, he’d been following her ever since she had gotten here. No matter where she seemed to turn, he was always there…watching, waiting, for the opportune time to get close to her.
Ducking around a corner, in an attempt to lose him it’s then that she sees a possible out for her current situation. A certain servant boy whom she had gone on one date with stood there talking to whoever it was, that didn’t matter. Suzuka is quick to run over to him and latch onto his arm. “Oh–Billy-kun! I finally found you!” It’s loudly said in an attempt to deter her pursuer. As he rounds the corner to look at her, she cuts him a glance then turns back to Billy with a look in her eyes, pleading. Please go along with what I’m saying.
“When’s our next date? You are my boyfriend ya know!”
@juvenileking
It’s a good thing, that no matter what those eyes said, the whole situation is weird enough that Billy would have no choice but to go along with it. But the Archer is quick on the notice, his eyes following the direction Suzuka’s had just previously, and ah. Everything makes sense now, and he’s very hardly surprised. Creeps and stalkers come in a bigger number than one would think, and with a girl this cute, who weirdo would resist?
Except, it sure must be this dude’s karma, or he’s just very unlucky. Make sure you don’t go anywhere near the casino, buddy. First, Billy dismisses his company with a hand wave and an apology ( seems like I’ve got matters of the heart to take care of, sorry! ), and second, that same hand reaches out to put a lock of hair behind the Saber’s ( humanly! ) ear.
Good thing, that if there’s one thing Billy the Kid is known for, aside from his title of Juvenile Rascal King, is that he is quite the womanizer.
“Hmm, you’re right. I owe you one, don’t I?” He stands in front of her, and though shorter, every now and then the boy shoots a glance to her stalker. You better be listening in on them. Keeping a close ear isn’t even necessary, for Billy makes sure his voice is loud enough for the people around them to hear. “Well, since we’re alone now, what if we go somewhere? Just the two of us.” That sweet smile on his face? As threatening as the tip of his gun, back in his times. “I feel like if someone were to disturb us, I could shoot them real dead. My gun’s not just for show, after all.”
