babby's first OC journal... mun is quite nervous.

[reigndrop]

So...

You want to get to know me better? Is that why you made this for me instead of... you know, the elf or the witch or... I don't know, someone more interesting?

...

...You didn't think this through at all, huh.

Comments

[notbloodylikely]

Interesting is what you do, not what you are.

[reigndrop]

... I paint and build models. ...And sit inside all day watching mecha cartoons.

It's interesting to me, but... I don't really see how this is gonna work...

So, uh, weird question, but I can't guess... What's the gender?

[notbloodylikely]

...Looks like you are boring! Better do something cool.

Just as planned! King's a lady, she just prefers her last name 'cause it sounds cooler |Db;

[reigndrop]

...Like what? You don't just decide to do something like that, do you?

What even counts as cool to these people, anyway...?

Hah-hah, well played.

[notbloodylikely]

Sure you do, sweetness! You think what's cool and do it, unless you're luckily enough to just be cool like me.

:3c

[reigndrop]

Don't call me that. [King narrows that one visible eye, frowning.]

What makes you so cool, anyway?

[notbloodylikely]

Whatever you say, honey. But to answer your question: Tall, dark and handsome, the owner of a particularly sharp wit...And wonderfully modest. Can't see anything that doesn't fit on the cool list.

[reigndrop]

[King reverts to the usual stonefaced expression, shrugging in a smooth motion before speaking, sounding vaguely... amused.]

I don't know about that. If you ask me... all I'm really seeing is a guy trying way too hard.

[notbloodylikely]

Oh sweetheart...[He spends a second flicking his own hair out from over an eye. It's not cool if everyone in the room is doing it.]

If I was trying you'd have fainted by now.

I need to draw better icons wow;;

[reigndrop]

[If you could only see King's eyebrow raise, dude--]

Fainted? I seriously doubt that, dude. What are you planning to do... cheese me to death?

Welp all mine are just PB'd so there yah go.

[notbloodylikely]

Hey, hey, no need to deny yourself. It's okay to fall in love, I won't hold it against you. [And King gets to see Feda's eyebrow raise. And drop. And raise again. The ol' eyebrow wriggle is a stunner.] Unless you ask real nice.

Whatever works, right?

[reigndrop]

[A short exhale-- a laugh, by King's standards. Was this guy for real?]

Pff... looks like I was right. It's a good effort, but you're not exactly... what I'd be looking for.

Whatever works is pretty much the best philosophy.

[notbloodylikely]

[He is not actually for real, no. He exaggerates himself for effect.]

Ah? So you're into girls?

[reigndrop]

[!!!]

Wh-- N-no, I mean... I never said... besides, you were coming onto me, and I'm not much of a... I-I'm not ladylike. At all. So what's your deal?

[notbloodylikely]

So you're a little rough around the edges. Doesn't mean you're undeserving of a little attention. In fact, all girls deserve a chance. If I wasn't equal about it, I'd have to deal with hordes of jealous ladies.

So just enjoy your chance whilst you have it, sugarcube.

[reigndrop]

I don't-- I don't need that kind of attention. How did we even get to this subject?

And I have a name, so you can drop the 'sugar' 'honey' bit. Please. I'm practically begging here, dude!

[notbloodylikely]

But you aren't giving it to me. A guy could take that to mean you don't really mean it when you say you want me to stop, princess.

[Ever been winked at that way, King? Have now.]

[reigndrop]

It's not Princess, it's King.

And I'll give you something if you keep that up, I can promise you that. Doesn't matter if you're a girl or a guy.

[notbloodylikely]

King? Mmm. I like it. You can rule me any day.

[What's this? Ignoring her preference he stop because he's am obnoxious tool? What are the chances?]

And you are speaking to Feda Gandamak, loyal subject. [That's Feda to rhyme with radar, not cheddar.]

[reigndrop]

Good. I don't give out my first name to rabble. [There goes her chance at a cheese pun. Damn!]

So you do this with everyone, huh?

...Is it because you get rejected a lot?

[Completely straightfaced. King seems genuinely curious.]

[notbloodylikely]

... [He gets a sort of glazed look to his eyes but smiles anyway. Technically yeah, he's rejected all the time. But that's because he does it on purpose. But saying that defeats the point. Still, his pride is a fickle thing and it annoys him anyway.] ...from a mathematical stand point, yes.
