Ehhhh? Can Ami-chan really come out to play now? [ it's about damn time, mun. ] I'm so excited to get the chance to see everyone~! I hope they're all here, like Takasu-kun [ only ] and Yuusaku [ maybe ] and Kushieda-san [ pass ] and, yes, even Aisaka-san! [ barf ] I know Aisaka-san probably wouldn't want to see me since she's always so angry and violent... but I'm sure that's only because she doesn't really have many friends, so she's just not used to acting like a decent human being around people~!

[ she laughs lightly. ]

She just needs a lot of help, that's all. Of course Ami-chan will try and offer her own, but everyone's always telling Ami-chan that she tries too hard to help others all the time, so Ami-chan isn't sure she'll be able to do much good... Maybe Aisaka-san needs a little more!

[ delicately, she places a finger to her chin in thought. ]

Mmm mmm, that's right! Maybe Aisaka-san needs professional help~!

[Now it's Scanty's turn to twitch ever-so-slightly at that wrinkle comment. But overall she keeps her composure rather wonderfully]

Well, a lot's expected of you when you're the Mayor's daughter! [Sigh] Sometimes I wish I could just be an ordinary student like...well, you!

[She laughs haughtily]

But luckily for me, however stressful my life can get, my kind doesn't get wrinkles. I do feel bad for the less fortunate who do though...

And I suppose you're right. But some people see through a person's outer shell almost immediately after meeting them. [Scanty is unable to stop herself from smirking]

[boings]

[ the more they speak, the more and more that smile of hers grows strained. forced. ]

Ah, my mistake! It's so hard to tell with your complexion and all... It's not exactly the kindest, don't you think?

[ her laugh, at least, sounds still fairly natural. ]

Wouldn't that be what they call assuming? You know what they say when one assumes... but, ah, I suppose you're used to doing that~! [ making an ass out of oneself, that is. :') ]

[betterthanpanty]

[Normally this would be the part where Scanty would go on a rant about how flawless her skin is - but this time she pauses for a brief moment before sighing defeatedly and adopting a sad expression.]

Oh, I know! Not all of us are blessed with flawless paper-white skin like yours!

[To call it "ivory" would actually have been a complement, and we can't have that!]

Red is so very aggressive, I know. But it's a burden my sister and I must bear.

And you're quite right, but there's a difference between being perceptive and assuming. Assuming would be guessing without evidence; perception is when people notice things like fake smiles, the tiniest twitch of displeasure...you did know the difference between the two, didn't you dear?

[boings]

You carry it well, if it helps any. At least, as well as someone can under such unfortunate circumstances!

Of course... What is it that they say? It takes one to know one, right? [ if scanty's calling her out, she'll return the favor in kind. ]

[betterthanpanty]

Oh absolutely it does! But it is indeed in a Demon's nature to be deceptive and appear to be what they're not. Humans on the other hand, well, to be frank about it: Your kind adopts such tactics as a sort of defense mechanism, like they have something to hide.

Or they do it simply to torment others, which is positively dreadful don't you agree?
