[embellwish]

Sure, ideally.

[ She's close to dozing off, but she's valiantly and bravely fighting off a nap. Please clap. ]

But there might not be a lot of people willing to volunteer, right? I guess I meant that more as an encouragement for the people who are unsure...

[reverso]

That was me fishing for your opinion on who you think suits you, Mademoiselle.

[Sips his wine.]

But your generosity is is noted.

[embellwish]

Interested in hearing who I have eyes for, hm? Trying to see your chances at wooing me?

[ She teases, beaming. It's playful, not arrogant — more like she's trying to put him on the spot and fluster him than that she's truly convinced that's what he was doing. ]

[reverso]

[His general facade makes it easy for him to not get truly flustered, though maybe he plays a little at shyness just for her sake.]

You've caught me red-handed. If I don't make the list, though, it just means I have to try a bit harder. We've still time!

[embellwish]

How about this? I can give you one hint, and then you can give me one hint in return.

[ She's not just putting her whole list out there for god and everyone to see — and most certainly not for free. ]

[reverso]

Sounds fair. I don't mind it.

[He's down.]

[embellwish]

Then, I'll start with Ringo! She even asked me out on a date.

[ The only one to do so thus far, actually... though that won't stop her from sinking her claws into others. She splays a hand towards him. ]

Now, your turn.

[poans]

[The urge is too strong to fight. Once again, he materializes from the ether at the unintended summons.]

Did you call?

[reverso]

[?? bruh]

[poans]

[He glances at the empty space next to Verso. Yes?]

[reverso]

[He's so confused.]

Are you... volunteering yourself to go with Yingying?

[poans]

[Ah.]

No, that was not my intention . . .

[reverso]

Okay.

Then why did you think we were calling you?

[He feels like there're some lines of communication getting muddied up, here.]

[irreversal]

This again...

[poans]

[ . . . ]

[irreversal]

[ . . . ]

[poans]

I urge you not to look at me with those eyes . . .

[irreversal]

. . .But this is just how my eyes look.

[ jiiiiii ]

[embellwish]

[ ???? where did he even come from... she laughs at his sudden appearance, entertained. ]

Verso was just talking about who might be a good match for me, [ you did this to yourself yi sang, she can't hold herself back ] I guess that's why you thought to appear out of nowhere?

[ just accuses yi sang of having a crush on her in front of everybody... it's too fun to tease these types, and he gave her the perfect opening for it. ]

[poans]

[He blinks. His face tells when realization dawns of what he's done.]

Ah . . . No, I was merely . . . responding to what sounded like my name.

[Help.]

[hexensabbat]

[damn, turned down, ice cold]

[embellwish]

Oh, so that was it, okay...~

[ She pouts, looking off. Like a flower, she is feigning wilting and drooping all dramatically. ]

I guess you're not interested after all then!

[poans]

[?!]

Miss Yingying, I would never . . . You are quite the lovely woman with a warmth few possess. That is, this is not a reflection of you, but of a poorly timed jest.

[Please don't wilt.]

[embellwish]

[ She is truly playing with him like a fiddle, or a cat messing with its food. The way he started backpedaling and being earnest is way too adorable... she's not ashamed at all to fake being all bummed out to elicit it.

Plus, why is he always dropping romantic lines while being completely clueless? It's just funny. And cute. A warmth few possess, huh? ]

Hmmmmmmmm.... [ She draws out the sound, pretending to think. ] Alright, I believe you. Just playing around, huh?

[ She readjusts herself, propping her chin up on a hand from where she's laying. Changing the subject to put him at ease: ]

How did you suddenly appear like that?

[ordimame]

[. . . HELLO??? DID THIS MAN JUST TELEPORT??]
