31st Doll

[hangedhourai]

*Today Alice decided to get out of the house... which is fairly rare for her. Walking to the park, she sits down on a bench and begins a long, involved conversation with one of her dolls. Being honest here, even if you're a good friend of hers, she's probably never talked to you as happily as she's talking to this doll. The doll itself simply

[FLYING BY

DON'T ACT LIKE I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS.]

Yo!

[hangedhourai]

*She isn't bothering to stop her conversation for you.

Deal with it Marisa.*

[lasersallover]

[That doesn't mean she won't go behind Alice and yell in her ear.]

Yo, Alice!

[hangedhourai]

*If this wasn't Alice she would be punched.*

... Do you mind?

[RIDING HER DRAGON (VERY SLOWLY) THROUGH THE PARK- wait what the hell, since when did her not-mom giggle.]

Woah, is that...Alice?

[hangedhourai]

*Alice stops her small talk with her doll when she sees Margarita on a dragon of all things.*

Margarita?

[knowthestakes]

Hi! Were you talking to that doll?

[because this is the most important thing...]

[hangedhourai]

... What about it?

*lol no it's not that huge dragon is way more important.*

[repeatsalvation]

[Well, that's quite an odd display. Wilhelm will be happy enough simply to watch from a distance for a moment before growing curious enough as to what the conversation between the woman and the doll could be before beginning to approach.]

[hangedhourai]

*Unfortunately for him, Alice ends the conversation before Wilhelm is able to get close enough to hear.*

... Were you trying to eavesdrop?

[repeatsalvation]

[He actually stops at that. Actually having to hold some form of proximity to a person in order to hear their conversations, even after being here so long, was new to him. He'd forgotten how it was a break against social norm, considering he himself was never bound by it.]

...I suppose I was.

[hangedhourai]

*Alice nods, accepting the answer better than anyone else would.*

At least you are honest.

[tsundorapettan]

[ ....Jessica is just. Standing there, frozen and staring at the doll. is it just her or did it just... and is it looking at her...? ]

[hangedhourai]

*Alice's head soon follows the doll's, and she stands up.*

Do you need something?

[tsundorapettan]

O-oh, no, not at all! It's just that, well, you see...

[hangedhourai]

... You should complete your thoughts.

[inb4gar]

[Why does it feel like that doll is staring into my soul? I just happened to be passing by, don't judge me gdit.]

[hangedhourai]

*Oh, it's Shirou... she doesn't get how creepy the doll is or else she would put it away.

Alice visibly hesitates before standing up. But she doesn't approach Shirou or leave... she just stands there, looking at him.*

[inb4gar]

[And Shirou stands there looking at her as well.]

... you're looking well today.

[hangedhourai]

*What a corny line, Shirou... Saying that makes it even harder to think of what she should say back.*

... Good Afternoon, Shirou.
