It's not your hat I hate, it's the way you're wearing it!
[ She is up in arms about it. Miyuki's lucky Nonon's so short because she enters his personal space and reaches to straighten his dumb bill. Why not look like a respectable member of society and not like whatever look he's trying to effect? ]
Let me fix it! Let me fix your entire wardrobe while I'm at it.
[ sadly for him, his first urge is always to let people into his space to do whatever they want, because he just takes whatever gets dished out. she's short, but not so short she can't get at the hat, and it does wind up straight on his head, though it kind of screws up his artfully tousled hair. ]
[ She huffs and fixes any part of his hair that sticks out way too much, but she's satisfied with his hat. Taking a step back, she crosses her arms and makes a show of looking him up and down. ]
Just about everything. The only thing that was fine from the start are your glasses. We'll work on it.
[ Not even asking Miyuki if he's okay with it like a considerate person would. ]
Especially since you gave me the worst game to watch. [ You bastard, her tone implies. ]
[ he scowls. ] I look fine, [ grumbled, because he really had thought he looked fine when he left the house. what kind of weird standards does she have!! ]
[ rolls his eyes. ] It wasn't the worst game, it was great, and the tie breaker replay the next day was super exciting!
[ She has too high standards that Miyuki has the misfortune to be held against. No one deserves how high maintenance Nonon is even as an ex-fake girlfriend. ]
You don't look fine, and what kind of person do you think I am that you'd think I have the patience for that? It dragged on way too long.
[ What are sports... she doesn't understand. At least in concerts, encores only happen because people are cheering actively for it. ]
he looks down at his loose gray sweater, sleeves pushed up, and jeans... besides the hat, he's pretty sure there's nothing objectionable going on here. ]
I do too look fine. [ he rolls his eyes. ] This coming from somebody who likes classical music, that's like the definition of dragging on too long. I thought you might appreciate the teeter-totter of the tie.
[ he crosses his arms over his chest because he, too, is six years old at heart. ] Yeah, yeah. Rag on a historical landmark of a game some more because you have no attention span, why don't you.
[ She stares back for a long moment before she bursts into laughter. She coughs after a particularly hoarse cackle and wipes away a nonexistent tear from her eye. ]
Oh, my, what a terrible fear. I'll keep it in mind. Because I'm so nice, I'll spare you and get a regular-sized parfait.
What are you going to do if something that actually eats people comes along?
Your mercy is appreciated. [ and he side-eyes her. ]
Be suitably freaked out, and let somebody else deal with it. I'm not delicious, though, no matter how good I look on the outside. I'm probably safe... unlike certain short girls who look like they have heads of cotton candy.
[ Nonon returns the side-eye. She can't honestly say Miyuki is unattractive, but she doesn't hear too many people admit that about themselves these days. ]
I know I look cute, but some people talk a lot about how I'm made of poison.
[ Her grin is wide. ]
They'd have a hard time getting me either way. Don't you know larger targets are easier to hit?
[ She turns and gives her order (a raspberry chocolate parfait) to the server at the counter and gives Miyuki a pointed look. ]

What's wrong with my wardrobe?!

Classical music is classic for a reason! All compositions have a definite end. I don't appreciate however many more innings it went on for!
[ Her hands are now on her hips in puffed up offense. ]
no subject
[ aaaand he's leaving her behind to go inside. ]
no subject
[ And is he just going inside without her? How rude???!!! Her offended meter is off the charts.
She stomps after him. ]
Hey!
[ Yelling, not even caring that they've entered the establishment and are now in the presence of politer company. How very rude. ]
no subject
[ grumbled low, but otherwise he ignores her, the same way he'd ignore sawamura. he pulls to a stop at the counter, and turns to look at her. ]
So? What do you want?
no subject
She's glowering at him when he looks at her, and her nose is scrunched up in disdain. ]
I'm in the mood for a parfait. That one.
[ She points to the sign with this parfait listed. Her tone barely hints that she knows she's being unreasonable. ]
no subject
he looks between the parfait and her tiny self a couple of times. ] That's not a parfait, it's an offense against nature. And it's bigger than you.
no subject
It's a culinary masterpiece. Are you afraid of it?
no subject
[ don't get carried away with horrifying mental images of the parfait being alive. ]

i sure love when notifs get lost in my inbox

it was trying to save miyuki from sweets overload

i'm sure he appreciates the effort
[ he's pulling his wallet out as he pulls a face back at her, pausing to order for himself - coffee, a sandwich - and pay before he looks back. ]
Smaller target, but shorter legs. Are you sure you're gonna be able to run away fast enough?
[ and he breezes away to look for a table. ]
no subject
Aren't you funny? I don't play sports, but that doesn't mean I let myself go to rot. I'm more than fit enough to outpace the weak.
[ Working to fight against parasitic alien clothes has to count for something. ]
Underestimate me at your own peril.
no subject
he hums, amused, as he finds a table he likes. he pulls a chair out - for her, apparently, since he doesn't sit down. ]
I'd never underestimate you. I don't know if athleticism is going to work on a walking parfait, though.
no subject
Miyuki's show of manners surprises a chuckle out of her, but she sits in it gracefully, too used to it. ]
You shouldn't underestimate my stomach for sweets either. I'd only need to eat a walking parfait.
[ It's a simple solution. ]
For how rude you are, it's cute how you know some etiquette.
