Girls' Night [OPEN]

[bowtography]

WHO: All the lady Outsiders!
WHAT: Girly bonding
WHERE: The Onsen
WHEN: 4/8
WARNINGS: Alcohol, nudity, will add if anything else comes up!

[ With hopefully enough time for the tired Outsiders to have some recovery time, both mental and physical, Miss March 7th sends out a blanket text inviting any and every lady to some time spent together in the hot springs!

She also ominously adds that if any guys try to show up and sneak a peek, she will utterly crush them. ♥

If you take her up on the invitation, welcome! There's the springs where you can bare it all and... well, bare it all, because girl talk is pretty much expected to happen. There's also sake for those of you who do not wish to be sober tonight. Whatever happens in the hot springs stays in the hot springs.

If you're tired of soaking, March has a growing collection of nail polish bottles in different colors that she will happily volunteer to apply for you.

Otherwise, wash each other's backs! Pet some cats! Talk about how unfairly smooth someone's skin is! Gossip about love lives! All of those stereotypical things that happen when a bunch of pretty girls get naked at the springs together!

OOC: General mingle for all the ladies! Feel free to chuck your own toplevels, join multi-person threads, and let loose! ]

Like this.

[ she'll take march's hand, but specifically from the wrist and the back of pressing against her own palm, her thumb against the thin skin of march's pulse. held up between them, since...

... the reason he had was...

... ... ...

glancing away. ]

... Like that.

[ MORE SIMPLE DOG NOISES!!!!! ]

Like, it's fine because it's us, but isn't this really intimate, actually?!

[ignoreher]

[ it's fine because it's us i'm crying please god ]

How am I supposed to know? I think he was just trying to stop me from messing with his hair any further, because I was taking off a headband I'd put on him and was just... making sure he looked nice again, as much as he could, and...

[ ... and... ]

I'd asked him what was on his mind, since he seemed a little off, and he just sort of...

[ gently, she lets march's fingertips drag down her reddened cheek and linger there. then drop away, because malkuth doesn't know if she wants to reenact the rest of that memory. ]

Did that. I guess it's intimate. It just felt really... I don't know. Like he wanted something, but couldn't ask.

[bowtography]

...

[ Give her a minute to recover. ]

I, um. He really doesn't seem like the kind of guy who can use his words, so that sounds about right... Not saying that you should touch him more to get some honesty out of him, but...

[ She's so confused. Does she support this?? Should she support this??? ]

[ignoreher]

[ pl lleaaaaaase bestieeeeeeeee ]

March... Please just stop talking. [ help ] He needs more like, normal friends, and I know you're probably on the case already, but please be his friend. He takes his coffee black and can't refuse a free meal.

[ you gotta see his charm like she does ]

[bowtography]

[ bestie she already can't handle a guy wiping blood off her face, if Vergilius is secretly dangerous enough to perform scandalous wrist acts, she is not god's strongest soldier. ]

I get it, I get it...

It's fine, I already knew he wasn't a bad guy. Or at the very least, he wasn't going to snap me in half.

[ignoreher]

[ and you think she is? they are weak. ]

Right? I feel bad for Rodya and Ishy, since they've clearly seen him deal with things a certain way... he's a terrible boss. But mine is pretty much the same way, so I know how it goes. In the end, they need each other.

[ ... so vergilius can't exact kill them for goodsies, and they definitely can't raise a flame to him. ]

I can't say he's a fun person for anyone to hang out with, but I find it enjoyable. There's... not a lot of people who can cure my homesickness.

[bowtography]

That's true, I'm definitely not from the same place.

[ Hm. ]

Well, I've dealt with worse! I'll manage.

[ignoreher]

You will! I mean, if he doesn't mind spending time with me, there's no way he won't not-mind it with you!

[ they're cut from the same cloth. ]

He's sort of funny to deal with, actually. Just go to his room every now and then and say if he doesn't go out with you, you'll cause a scene. I used to bang on his door until he opened it.

[wheft]

[ on one hand she really doesn't want to hear any of this bc it grosses her out on principle BUT ]

He... can do that?

[ignoreher]

[ by the fucking wings you are making her jump ]

I told you! He can be gentle! It was really, really sweet!

[wheft]

[ GOOD. ]

It's really hard for me to believe that when I'm always this close to getting throttled by him with those hands that you adore so much.

[ignoreher]

I'm sure he wishes he could throttle me, actually, I keep talking back at him.

[ how the hell she survives, the world may never know. ]

Have you tried getting to know him? He likes black coffee and strong alcoholic drinks. Just as a start.

[wheft]

I mean, I do that too? That's pretty much why he had it out on me!

[ she's not as bad as don, but it did get to the point where even vergilius couldn't handle her when they were at molar boatworks... ]

And... I guess I'll think about it? I do want to trust him. I just don't know if he'll let us.

[ignoreher]

He's your guide. Even if you he won't let you trust him as a person, just... trust he won't let you stagnate.

[ ... yeah. probably the best way to say that. ]

[wheft]

[ she looks like she's going to retort, but then lets go of her held breath. ]

You've got a point. I just... wonder where we're even going in our current journey back home. He rarely every talks about himself or why he's even with us.
