second time around
eaxselene:
Selene is a master at the art of coming up with pretty dumb but exciting ideas. Her most recent brilliantly thought out plan is to slide down the stairs in a laundry basket, yes, a laundry basket. Not that it seems to bother Selene how much danger she could be putting herself into right now. Cracking her head against the cement step did not sound like a wonderful way to go out, nor did ending up with the nurse sound great either.
With no one around to stop her on her pursuit, read: Ezio, Selene shouts a war cry at the top of her lungs before launching herself straight off the steps and down into what could possible be her doom. Halfway down, she loses control of the basket and ends up just straight up rolling all the way down. A groan and lots of ‘ow’s follow her decent down to the ground, but she’s not that harmed (miraculously). She rolls to a stop at a pair of feet, and when she looks up, she spies none other than Kay Nysnø.
“Just shut up,” Selene hisses, glaring up at the smirking boy, even though he hasn’t even said anything. “It was fun, and that’s all that matters. Now, stop looking at me like that.”
Soft footsteps decorate the silence of the tapered hallway. With a bag of Thai dishes in his hand, Kay walks and takes the usual route to Kaya’s dorm. It’s silent but Kay likes the silence as he continues to walk.
He turns right to walk up the stairs when he hears a thud against the floor. The ever so lucky person lands just before the ice prince’s feet. The stranger lifts her head up, and she isn’t a stranger anymore. Kay recognizes faces he encountered during thronecoming, and Selene is one of them.
He blinks, lips cornering up into a quick smile before returning to his usual cold features.
“Pleasure to encounter you again, Selene” he says her name like honey, some tone he has been born and cursed with. “I’m guessing you have too much time in your hands” he comments, lifting his hand out for her to take, wanting to help her get up because it isn’t a pretty scene.
