black or white? | edea & ringabel
There was only one way a man and a woman could get to know one another—but Ringabel knew better to keep his mouth shut. “Honestly, the only thought that roamed my mind was nothing but innocent.” He laughed quietly to himself.
"But seriously, I was referring to… something more the along the lines of… well anything, that would convey friends? Like getting this beverage everyone seems to be talking about… coffee, was it? Hm, I heard it’s quite bitter but I’m willing to try it out."
"Or may be we could go on… a study date? Yes, that whole studying together and laughing about experiences we had in class?" Normally, if it were up to him—which it usually is—he skip right to the touching bits. But it were Edea he was speaking with, and he was willing to take it nice and slowly if it’d mean that she’d… well, adopt a better mindset of him.
Whatever he’d say or did would get him on her bad side. An unavoidable fact. “Er… I was kidding! Yes, I only jest! Of course a gentleman like myself wouldn’t… fantasize about a beautiful lady. No, no! No fantasies of such a… case… has ever dared cross my mind!”
"I can assure you, your exclusive parts have not been resident to my mind at all!"
"You'd actually want to drink this beverage with me? This..coffee?" she might've heard the name once or twice now that she thought about it and it would look rather..bad if she went to try it for herself at that little cafe on campus. She's weighing in her options right about now..to go with Ringabel soon..or to not go. "I've heard about it as well, you can put..different things into it or so they say. I suppose I could try going with you, maybe."
"But if you even dare to look at another woman, I'll strike you where you stand." there'd be none of that hogwash if she were out with him as friends. Just...friends yes. That's all there was to them. They were just friends. So when he mentioned the word date, she was rather quick to deny it being so. "A study date? You mean as friends. We are just friends. That is all."
"And I'd hope that you'll keep your dirty thoughts to a minimum. As I don't believe you're completely innocent inside of your mind." she takes Ise no Kami now and points it directly at him from where she sits on her bed. "I'm not joking around Ringabel."
