Juliana Questions Her Life Choices... In An Airport
“Arcues Arven, just shush so I can pay attention and I dunno, find us and Waffles a sandwich,” Juliana groaned and when he moved to speak again she promptly held a finger to his lips with a half click of her tongue in a warning. “No, no more parlar, or talking in Alohan for everyone else,” she stated in probably the most flat tone Penny had ever heard anyone speak in and it made the hairs on the back of her neck stand up with the unnatural tone in the brunette. Who returned her tone to normal and lightly patted Arven’s cheek without looking at him, “sandwich first, then you can bother me all you want beansprout.”
Arven, evidently having finally had his danger-sense kick in… obediently handed Juliana the earbud he had and got up with a mumbled grumble about girls being confusing. Even offering Waffles his arm to climb up himself to go with him like he knew Juliana would prefer if he took the male rock puppy with him and disappeared.
Juliana’s brown eyes following him as he left till she decided he was out of range and propped her chin up on her palm with a scarily good poker face as her expression that simultaneously wasn’t intimidating or frightening, just didn’t give away any irritation or frustration with Arven. “...is it really that easy to get their attention?”
“Boys, just takes skinny jeans and a fancy jacket?”
Honestly Penny had no idea.
“Juliana he’s hopeless, I don’t think he’d notice anything muchless anything less than a full formal event with you,” Seren spoke while obviously still trying not to laugh, or cry with how she was using the edges of her fingers to remove any moisture from the corners of her eyes. “Arceus,” she exhaled slowly to stop laughing, “my brother is fucking stupid as hell…”
“Understatement of the year,” Penny responded with as much support as she could without the internal laughter of just how hopeless the two’s relationship was, “how tall are you and does Seren have your measurements? I can get ahold of something and send it to the airport if you’re that determined to see if he’ll respond.”
She shrugged without looking away from the call, apparently having decided she wasn’t going to pay attention to anything else after that conversation with Arven, “sure, for science why not. Oh, and probably, dunno if I’ve grown much here...”
“Take that as a yes,” Jenny leaned over and whispered in Penny’s ear and the tech nerd both managed to not look like an idiot with her breath tickling her ear and nod in confirmation to do as suggested and help the poor brunette.
Who seemed to have a higher chance of convincing Arceus to fall in love with her than get Arven to notice her and say something about it.
Even lived with the boy and yet he seemed completely blind to her as a girl.
“What’d I miss?” Tori came to a breathless stop in front of the group with her usual slightly lopsided smile that Seren usually grumbled about being too charming for such a lazy person.
“My brother’s a dumbass and I amend my statement that you’re the worst at every social cue,” Seren was snickering too hard to be mad at the brunette with blue streaks, “he’s set the bar even lower than you…”
“Didn’t know I was that bad with people but okie dokie, oh, here I’ll move Juli,” Tori casually took the half compliment half dig in stride and hastily moved so she wasn’t blocking Juliana’s view of her cousin and Nemona, with the both of them nearly colliding with one another as Kayli’s head swung from side to side like she was looking for Tori.
“At least someone can pay attention to me even if they’re thousands of miles away…” Juliana grumbled and Penny had to work really hard not to choke on her laughter and distract Nemona from the short blue girl that all of them were watching.
