[Hymn #32] [Movement] ~Con moto~

[nightcrossed]

You have got to be kidding me...

[Tear rips down a flyer, scrutinizing it with a mixture of annoyance and disbelief.]

[Flyer reads: "1st Annual Cooking Competition, Date TBA, Sponsored by Cafe Demois, Bring Out Your Best For a Chance to Win Fabulous Prizes Including a Dinner Date Served By Two of Our Fine Waitresses!!"]

[She tears the flyer neatly in half, then looks about for the next one so she can destroy it in the same fashion. They have been tacked up randomly around town.]

((OOC: Demois is pronounced "de moy". It came from my friend saying "cafe de moi" and me trying to make it look cooler. Kabalarians suggests it's a name that's easy-going and refined, and one that attracts people with problems in need of advice or understanding. This is what Fay had suggested to Tear anyway, so I'm going with it. Er... Although it has some negative connotations too, I just wanted a freaking name for Tear's place of employment. If I'm not allowed to do this stuff, tell me now!! Thanks! Also, if anyone is actually interested, I thought we could make a log for it. Doesn't have to be in paragraph form, right? Whatever works.))

Sure you didn't and just didn't realize it?

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

[Annoyance level rises.]

I'm absolutely certain I did no such thing.

You seem awfully happy. Did something happen?

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

I dunno, seems to me you could've missed the fine print when you agreed to the job. That's one of the oldest tricks in the book, you know.

Eh? No, not really.

[[Luke is a lying liar who lies. >_> ]]

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

((Tear does not approve of liars. XD Better watch your back, Luke.))

[That's got to be just about the stupidest thing she's heard come out of his mouth yet. And she stares at him accordingly - some mixture of annoyance and disbelief.]

Luke, how careless do you think I am? It's my job to pick apart the details in any given situation. I wouldn't have missed something like that.

Oh, really now?

I recall agreeing to watch your back, but I didn't agree to put up with you questioning my abilities.

[Nevermind that Luke's teasing her and not questioning her abilities. It's the same thing to someone who isn't used to being teased.]

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

Whoa, hey! Who said anything about questioning your abilities?!

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

[Places her hands on her hips and levels her gaze at him.]

You just said that I must have overlooked the fine print. Twice in fact.

Are you suggesting that I rush into things without looking or that I can't read properly?

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

...

...You know, for someone who looks for details and tries to catch everything, you're doing an amazing job of missing a harmless joke.

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

...

[In her opinion, Luke, you should know better. Honestly? She should know better or else be taught what a joke is.]

How was I to know it was a joke? Idiot.

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

...Have you even heard a joke before?

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

[Sternly.] Yes, as a matter of fact, Luke, I have heard of them. Raven might have teased me once or twice...

[Lets up just a little bit.] It's just that... normally people don't joke around with me. It's not like we sat around telling riddles and teasing one another in the Oracles, and Van wasn't around that much.

[Actually, Tear, your life's pretty depressing. You don't even know how to take a joke.]

But all jokes aside, you're not thinking of entering, are you?

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

Uh...

Why do you ask?

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

[Studies him for a moment as if she can see right through him.]

No reason.

[She straightens and crosses her arms.]

Well, if you had said that you were, I was going to warn you that Rena can get very excitable when it comes to things like this. That was all.
