020 [Video/Action for Olivine]

[soggypastry]

[This has been a terrible couple weeks for one ex-Sergeant Farron, between Serah, Sora, Vanille, and Snow disappearing and the altercation with Leon that she doesn't know what to think of, even after almost two weeks. And with the last bit of hope she'd been holding to get Hope and the others home gone because getting the badges won't get them home

[She almost immediately says "yes", but she stops herself beforehand. Have a sigh, Ven. That and a Pikachu popping up on camera to chatter a greeting. Spark's grown out of his shy side.]

...It's just been a long week. I'll be fine.

[video]

[soggypastry]

[There will be lots of Pikachu chattering now! Spark can go on for hours if given the chance, and he's definitely got it now.

Light, on the other hand, is just going to shake her head. Distracted..certainly fits.]

Had a lot on my mind. It's nothing to worry about.

... [ she wants to say if it's about cooking, that it's a good idea to watch what you're cooking, but sisterly instincts are kicking in. ]

What's up, Light?

[video/private]

[soggypastry]

[It's a good thing those sisterly instincts are kicking in, because this is most definitely not about cooking. Light wouldn't look this tired or sound this quiet if it was about that.]

...How do you...deal with having feelings for someone? Feelings that aren't platonic?

[restardom]

-- Whoa, seriously?! Who are we talking about here??

[video/private]

[soggypastry]

[Seriously. Lightning doesn't joke much, and especially not about this.]

Leon.

[usedroar]

Try not to burn the place down, Lightning.

[audio]

[soggypastry]

[There'll just be a bit of a long silence over here, Leon, and Light ain't coming on camera. So have Spark-the-recently-evolved Pikachu to chatter at you and give his best impression of Light's death glare. ...Not that it's at all intimidating.]

There wasn't any fire. It was just smoke.

[audio]

[usedroar]

[ What are you talking about, Pikachu stares are terrifying. It's a lucky thing Leon can't see it. ]

It's best to watch what you're doing when you cook.

[audio]

[soggypastry]

[And it's also a lucky thing that she's inside and Odin's nowhere around. Unicorn screams can be loud.]

I did. I wasn't expecting it to smoke so fast.

[Turned her back for less than a minute, and...well, shrill alarms.]

[puppet_paladin]

...Those contraptions are more sensitive than I thought.

[Because cooking mishaps are always easier to comment on than distant looks and disappearances.]

[video]

[soggypastry]

It's because they're in the Center. They can't afford to risk a fire because of the people and pokémon staying here.

[So much easier for them both, really.]

[video]

[puppet_paladin]

That seems like a lost cause, considering the number of Fire-types they must see daily. Is your meal salvageable?

[video]

[soggypastry]

Pokémon fires are easier to contain than kitchen fires.

[That and there's generally someone with the pokémon; a kitchen fire can easily burn unattended for a while before anyone sees it.]

Yeah, I just overcooked it. I ate worse in the military.

[video]

[soggypastry]

[What's with her? Not even she's got an idea, so she's just staying off camera and letting Spark the Pikachu handle that department. He'll chatter a greeting at Zidane, then prick his ears to the side as Light speaks.]

Been a long week. Have a lot on my mind.

[video]

[soggypastry]

[It takes a rather...decent time for Light to respond to that, and that should speak volumes.]

...Who said there was a guy involved?
