Pippa of Burgess

"Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean you should underestimate me." ((An indie ROTG RP blog of Pippa, the tall girl with the beanie.))

[pippaofburgess]

What the heck do you mean I'm not relaxing?

"Well, you attract supernatural attentions, for one."

[guardianofbelief]

Me? Bad luck?

You must be joking. But you are seriously the best. I would follow you into just about anything.

[pippaofburgess]

…you are not saying that so I would agree to come hunting, right?

[guardianofbelief]

Like I would ever do something so underhanded? 

Ha ha.

No, bur really lets do it! we haven’t been on an adventure in ages.

[pippaofburgess]

You are doing it now and sadly, flattery gets you...

Everywhere.

Ugh, I can't believe I have reach the point where you can just drag me wherever you want with simple words...

Lunch time came and Pippa stood up from her chair to approach Cupcake. "She's scary."

"Really? I mean, I guess I could see how Brunnie could be seen as scary. But mostly she’s just tough. She doesn’t take crap from anyone, and she’s not afraid to say what she thinks, and prefers other people do the same. And actually that’s what  I really admire about her, aside from her having the guts to fight off anyone who’d threaten her or her loved ones-"

She caught herself then, glancing over at Pippa before ducking her head and flashing a slightly embarrassed smile.

"But yeah, you just have to get to know her, you know? Like how you were afraid of me at first."

[pippaofburgess]

Pippa listened to Cupcake intently. Of course Cupcake would like her. Come to think of it, they gave off similar vibes. “Hmmm, alright then…” Pippa sighed. She then took out the note Cupcake gave her in class. “And stop wasting paper!”

[unicornsandgauntlets-deactivate]

"I’m not." She took back the note and smoothed it out, only to fold it more neatly and replace it in her pocket. "It’s my shopping list for this new recipe I want to try- you sure you’re okay? Did something happen?"

She may have enjoyed teasing Pippa, maybe even more so than any of her other friends, but it let it never be said that Cupcake ignored her the other girl’s feelings.

[pippaofburgess]

Despite what people said about Cupcake, Pippa always knew the girl was more apt to her friend's feelings that Pippa herself. the lanky girl sulked almost immediately. Dammit, she should stop wearing her heart on her sleeves. "It's nothing. I just did something stupid when meeting Brunnie..."

[pippaofburgess]

*Crumples up a piece of paper and throws it at Pippa's head.* It reads: I heard you met Brunnie the other day. Congrats on returning alive~

Pippa scowled as she read the paper. The girl turned around and stuck her tongue childishly at her friend before going back to the teacher's lecture.

[pippaofburgess]

"O-okay…" Emotional control, right. She cleared her throat and straightened her posture. "I will keep that in mind…" 

[aghostnotaguardian-archive]

"Good - now,” Brunnie pushed off from leaning against the table and knelt by a toolbox set near the Rock ‘n Roll stand. “I’ve got a shanty building to fix up, and you’ve got your envy issues to sort out.” 

[pippaofburgess]

Pippa frowned and looked down as she left the shop. "I'm not jealous..."

[easterelf]

*coos at his cuteness*

*blushes and paps his cheeks*

[pippaofburgess]

"Awwww…" Pippa giggled. "What’s your name little elf?"

[easterelf]

"Doodle!" He chirped from behind his hands, still rather shy at the attention. "Who es juu?"

[pippaofburgess]

"I’m Pippa, one of the kids from Burgess." She smiled. Honestly, she was still too self conscious to introduce herself as a Burgess Believers. It was a silly name…

[easterelf]

Large brown eyes got even wider as he gaped at her, hands flopping down from his face. “Juu!” He pointed at her hopping up and down now. “Juur one of tha- tha Believers! Juu hads a special name - but juu es one of THEMS?”

[pippaofburgess]

Pippa felt flattered by the elf's enthusiasm. "Yes, my name is Pippa. Nice to meet you Doodle." She smiled, a happy blush on her cheeks.

[easterelf]

*coos at his cuteness*

*blushes and paps his cheeks*

[pippaofburgess]

"Awwww…" Pippa giggled. "What’s your name little elf?"

[pippaofburgess]

The girl squeaked in fear, “I’m sorry! Please don’t gut me!”

[aghostnotaguardian-archive]

Another chuckle, this time more heavier as she shook her head. 

"I didn’t say I was going to gut you - but, do consider this a lesson about first impressions: a little emotional control never hurt anybody.” 

[pippaofburgess]

"O-okay..." Emotional control, right. She cleared her throat and straightened her posture. "I will keep that in mind..." 

[easterelf]

*coos at his cuteness*

*blushes and paps his cheeks*

[pippaofburgess]

"Awwww..." Pippa giggled. "What's your name little elf?"

[pippaofburgess]

"I didn’t— I didn’t mean to be rude… I’m sorry…" Pippa apologized, ashamed of her behavior. "I’m not always like this, I swear."

[aghostnotaguardian-archive]

"Well, that’s convincing.” An ill smirk found her lips as she made a light chuckle. “I’ve known dark spirits who would have gutted you for less.”  

[pippaofburgess]

The girl squeaked in fear, "I'm sorry! Please don't gut me!"

[pippaofburgess]

Sulking, Pippa answered weakly. “Cupcake keeps talking about you, so I wanted to see you by myself.”

[aghostnotaguardian-archive]

Her gaze narrowed, still. 

"Well, if your visit to my little exhibit has tended to your bruised ego, I think you know where the door is.” 

[pippaofburgess]

"I didn't-- I didn't mean to be rude... I'm sorry..." Pippa apologize, ashamed of her behavior. "I'm not always like this, I swear."

[angelumirae]

"What's your deal?" Pippa fixed his gaze to the younger girl, trying not to glare. "Jamie might not notice, or rather, he chose not to...." She trailed off.

Her expression should have been enough to warn off the older girl not to pursue the subject, but it wasn’t as if any of Jamie’s friends were smart- well, no, she had to give Pippa some credit. It wasn’t as if anyone else noticed her behavior.

Or, like she said, chose not too.

"I have no idea what you are talking about Pippa," Sophie said sweetly. "I’m just the same as I ever was."

[pippaofburgess]

"Bullshit." Pippa scoffed. She knew something was up, she just didn't know what, or any proof for it. "We will talk about this later." She warned before leaving Sophie om her own device.

[aghostnotaguardian-archive]

"Well, the fact that I did not live up to your expectations devastates me, but try to keep in your head that I know Jamie a lot better than I know you, so I’ll ask one more time: why are you here?” 

[pippaofburgess]

Sulking, Pippa answered weakly. "Cupcake keeps talking about you, so I wanted to see you by myself."

[pippaofburgess]

"Pippaaaa, my shining starlight, Your beauty rivals that of Aphrodite and your wisdom puts Athena to shame. Can I look at your history essay?"

"Well, would you look at the time! It’s a no time for Jamie’s bullshit o’clock for this shining starlight!"

[thatunflickeredlight-blog-blog]

"But- but the paper’s due this afternoon! C’mon, Mr. Wright’s gonna chew my ass off. Pleaaaaase?"

[pippaofburgess]

"Should have thought of that before procrastinating." She deadpanned.

[pippaofburgess]

"Pippaaaa, my shining starlight, Your beauty rivals that of Aphrodite and your wisdom puts Athena to shame. Can I look at your history essay?"

"Well, would you look at the time! It's a no time for Jamie's bullshit o'clock for this shining starlight!"

[pippaofburgess]

"Not everything is about Jamie, you know…" She pouted, a twinge of jealousy in her tone. "We helped The Guardians too."

[aghostnotaguardian-archive]

"No, but he has a habit of getting himself in trouble," she said over her shoulder. "By the way, if your jealousy is as obvious as it is now, you may want to reign it in a tad." 

[pippaofburgess]

Pippa's face flushed red in embarrassment. "I'm not jealous!" She denied. "I just-- it's unfair..." She huffed, voice faltering as she crossed her arms. "Every time I tried to talk to a spirit they always asked about Jamie first... I thought you would be different."
