XII

[wilder]

[Zelos is bored out of his mind. Winter sucks, being stuck inside all the time sucks and aside from stealing some fireworks the festival isn't one of his interest (he wasn't one to honor elders after all). ]

[He's taken to lounging in the lobby, boredly flipping through the book when he's really watching every person who watch past. Mostly the girls but seeing if he can read the guys is fun too. He was being quiet too, until he decided to take a drink of some earth beverage called "coca-cola" that was in the fridge. ]

[He then promptly sneezes very loudly and sits up, spilling some and quickly putting the drink down like it's offended his ancestors]

Ugh!

Is this drink supposed to be fizzy?!

[Well that destroyed his incognito coolness]

[OOC: open post!]

[ And Twilight's heading outside, which means, naturally, she is heading out through the lobby. She's wearing glasses and towing several large volumes of Equestria history behind her, but she stops when she sees Zelos... making a fool out of himself.

For a unicorn hunter, that was surprisingly not-scary. Kind of funny, actually. ]

[wilder]

Ugh...

[He's trying to wipe some of the spilled drink off himself with the back of his glove; his tone is very whiney]

Is this going to stain too?!

action;

[checklist]

[ That whining... Is he just a male, human, murdering version of Rarity?

....No, Twilight banished that thought. Rarity was still the element of generosity, not the element of killing-unicorns. She shouldn't even make a comparison.

Still, he did look pretty pathetic right now. ]

[wilder]

[Really Pinkie Pie would be a closer guess...]

Now it's starting to feel sticky...gross.

[He seems to gripe a bit more to himself about this before he seems to sense the presence of someone else here he turns to look; relaxing when he recognizes the horse ]

Oh it's just you.

[Martel is to her room from the festival just as Zelos does that and draws attention to himself. She looks over to him, and then starts to giggle at him.]

[notanthea]

[Not looking up from her mobile at him when she speaks.]

Yes.

action;

[wilder]

[He hears that giggling and...whines]

Now this is embarrassing...

[wilder]

[He'll look up, oh wow she's pretty *A* ]

Why? What's the point?

[notanthea]

Mm? [She looks away from the screen to actually see who she's speaking to.]

[wilder]

[Oh she's looking- he makes a charming smile expression]

Sorry, I'm just unfamiliar with all these things from other worlds, darling.

action;

[heal_theworld]

[She goes over and inspects the can.] ...Coca Cola?

[notanthea]

[Darling? Really? Plus that outfit, she is questioning your sexuality right now.]

It's a cola. It gets the fizziness from the carbonated water it's made with.

action;

[wilder]

It's some drink that was in the fridge...blech. [He's trying to wipe himself off now of any coke that spilled on him] I think it's getting sticky, gross.

action;

[heal_theworld]

Sorry, I can't help you with that. But I'll be sure to avoid it. [She sets the can back down.]

[wilder]

[....That makes no sense what so ever. What the hell is carbonated water?]

Okay then. Thank you for telling me, you must be as wise as you are beautiful.

action;

[wilder]

Oh it's fine, da- Martel. I've washed worse things out of my clothes even if this will be a huge pain.

[He'll smile at her brightly]

So how are you?

action;

[heal_theworld]

Fine! I was just at the festival. Why are you sitting all alone?

action;

[wilder]

Oh you know, just killing time, watching people. [He shrugs lightly] I didn't feel like going to the festival today.

or can it be... dictated...

[gevurah]

Is it a soda?

action;

[heal_theworld]

[She sits down next to him on the couch.] Don't like being around people sometimes?

dictated works!

[wilder]

It says 'coca-cola' on the can, so I don't think so!

/o/

[gevurah]

Coca-Cola is just a brand name. It's a carbonated soft drink.

action;

[wilder]

[He moves his legs down to the floor to give her more room; the answer is partly yes, but he jests instead] Nah, that'd be cool. Chicks really dig those sullen loner, antisocial types.

Just the whole sitting around, learning about all the accomplished figures in the past? I've already served many years time of that in spades. Fine if others are into that, but it doesn't seem like much of a party to me.

[wilder]

Whaaat? That's not soft!

action;

[heal_theworld]

To be honest, I actually went to see the ghost wolves. They were very beautiful, and even better, they aren't trying to attack anyone.

[She looks at him, and then looks away.] I'm sorry. It's because of me that your life...wasn't ideal.
