7th Diamond (Also backated to Thursday) [Action]

[yay_heiress]

[London can be seen merrily roaming the halls of the castle today, carrying the heart-shaped box of chocolates with her. They're so good, how can she just eat one?! And If you encounter her, be prepared for anything. Since she's in such a good mood, maybe she'll even offer you one?]


[[OOC: It's a London. If you don't stop her, she'll stop you!]]

[Oh, just the person that Alex did not want to see! Don't mind this girl, she's just putting super glue on the stair railings. When she sees London eating out of the box of chocolates, she isn't surprised in the least. Girl probably doesn't know any better.]

[Coming your way, Alex!]

Whatcha doin'

[She absently pops a truffle.]

[gottaknockhard]

[Spike's like the ghosts in these halls sometimes, just brushing by without a word. Except when he looks up enough to see London, he conveniently remembers something he needed in the opposite direction. No offense to her but she's a level of perky that he's sure he can't deal with right now.]

[yay_heiress]

[London's not deterred. Spotting him and maybe ignoring the fact that he might possibly be trying to avoid her, she quickens her pace to catch up to him.]

Hi, Spike! Whatcha doin'?

[gottaknockhard]

[This 'going to the castle' plan was poorly thought out, he realizes. He could have at least waited until it was dark to cut down on possible interference.]

Something very boring. [Smart response. That should discourage her.]

[yay_heiress]

Something boring? Why would you want to do that?

[A for effort, Spike.]

[delincuente]

[Alex isn't even trying to be subtle.]

Putting superglue on the stairs.

[gottaknockhard]

[Still clinging to hope. This can't possibly backfire.]

I'm just that kind of guy.

[yay_heiress]

Why? If people touch it, won't they get stuck?

[yay_heiress]

Well, you do seem kind of boring.

Ooh! Maybe I can help you lighten up a little! I'll be your fun machine!

[gottaknockhard]

... Fun machine.

[delincuente]

Yeah, that's what superglue does, London.

[yay_heiress]

Uh-huh!

I could talk to you so you don't get lonely, we could play with Ivanna, we could re-arrange our closet space so we have room to go shopping, we could go shopping, we could eat some chocolate, we could maybe make out a little bit, get mani pedis, try on shoes, we could have a party and invite the whole castle...

[She could go on. What? No. She did not just say that.]

[yay_heiress]

You know, even though you're almost as pretty as me, you're still kinda mean.

[Seems like that truffle she ate was Double Chocolate.]

[gottaknockhard]

[Make out a little bit. Please tell him she doesn't suddenly have a crush on him.]

Sounds like you've put a lot of thought into this.

[delincuente]

Aww, that's so sweet of you to say.

[She looks a little uncomfortable, though. If London Tipton just almost called her pretty, something weird must be up.]

I try my best.

[yay_heiress]

[Maaaybe. Stupid ginger chocolate!

[There's a pause before she responds, her mental process having been derailed.]

Nope.

[gottaknockhard]

[He sighs. Someone should have told her that he'll only break her heart.]

Maybe another time. [He says it kinder than he would usually, seeing as how he's not a complete asshole.]

[yay_heiress]

To be pretty? Or to be mean?

[It's legit confusion.]

[yay_heiress]

[She's not hearing a 'no!' Whatever. London Tipton waits for no man.]

Wow. You really are boring!

[gottaknockhard]

[Yes, the plan is working.]

I warned you about that.

[yay_heiress]

At least take one of these for the road. [She holds out the box of chocolates she'd been carrying with her.] I couldn't possibly eat them all myself!

[Well, she totally could. And probably would. But devouring an entire box of chocolates is very unbecoming of a lady.]

Maybe it'll make you less boring and lame! [What is tact?]

[delincuente]

To be-

[Well, she was going to continue being rude and say "to be both", but then she remembers. The whole "being a good person" kick she decided she'd try back in November. Admitting to being mean on purpose probably wouldn't count towards part of that.

She gives a half smile and shrugs.]

Neither. I was just kidding. And it's not even real superglue. [Lie.] It won't actually stick someone to the stairs, it'll just get their hands all gross.

[yay_heiress]

Oh! [Totally falling for it. Even though getting her hands gross is the last thing she wants.]

Well, that's good to know. I don't wanna be gross while eating chocolates. [She plucks another out of the box for herself and holds the box out for Alex.]

Want one?

[gottaknockhard]

[Maybe he was wrong about that crush. He eyes that box of chocolates like she's got some ulterior motive at work, before he realizes not all young girls are criminally minded.]

Thanks. [Flatly. He grabs a chocolate and practically swallows it whole just to get her to drop it. ]
