[video]

[blastiafreak]

[The video's not very clear when it comes on; it's dark and gloomy, showing hints of thick dust and cobwebs--a glimpse of a window reveals deep fog--and then it shifts to Rita's wide-eyed face. When she speaks, she's trying very hard to pretend she's calm...and failing pretty horribly.]

I-is anyone else stuck in this weirdo place? I mean, it's not like I need help or anything, but-

[A loud creak and sudden clatter of footsteps interrupts her, the shutters to the window abruptly blowing open, and she jumps with a yelp.] Aah--! Uh--it's not sc--just where's the exit, already?!

[Maybe realizing that the video's still recording her little freak-out, she quickly shuts it off.]

[ooc: Tags slow forever. ._. Sorry!]

[ And it'll be another cliff hanger! >:< ]

[ He goes ahead and flips it without a care. There they go. And this means he doesn't have to crush it in his hands. ]

Of course I am. We can just come back here, but if you want to stay here, I won't go anywhere...

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[Gotta keep 'em coming back. >B)]

[I thought of making him do that but Rita would almost certainly have a machine... It comes to life, and it's not particularly quiet in its grinding sounds.

Rita blinks at Tyr, surprised that he'll stay just because she will.] ...Then let's stay. It'll be a few minutes before we add the metal, so...I'll go find something for you.

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ Sob, what a cruel trick! ]

[ Aha, yeah... Or it'd take even longer for her. ...They're definitely not staying in the room while that thing's going. Still, he smiles that she's offering. ]

Thanks... I'll grab some drinks for us while you do that.

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[All's...fair in ratings?!]

[Haha, it would...And she'd lose patience anyway! She smiles a bit, then turns away to hide another yawn. When did she get so sleepy?]

Thanks...I'll be right back!

[And she heads off to look for something for him to wear!]/small>

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ No way!! :'< There needs to be more scandals in that case! ]

[ Yeah! She'd make something just because she's impatient! She really is tired... He wonders how long she'll be able to stay up for. ]

Okay.

[ And he'll go down to the kitchen! He's not sure how long she'll take or if she has the energy to stay awake, but after everything that happened yesterday, he decides they deserve a couple cups of hot chocolate instead of just water or tea. ]

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[Like...a cancelled episode?!]

[She definitely would!! So there'd be no manual work! Rita totally thinks she can stay up forever...not like a little kid. Although she has half a mind to just grab the first pair of pants she spots in the dirty laundry hamper, she passes it by and searches for something clean.

It takes her a few minutes, but she returns to the study holding simple dark blue flannel pajamas and a pair of slippers.]

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ sklgh Anything but that!! ]

[ Best way to not build up arm strength!

He arrived shortly before her, mostly because heating the water took a little time, but the cups are still steaming when she comes. Smiling, he's a little surprised she actually got him something that matched. And slippers! It makes him not mind the sound of her machine as much. ]

Thanks... [ He stands up to take them from her, leaving the cups on the table. ] Are these Flynn's?

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[Or even...surprise character death!! >:3]

[Not that she needs it...!

She's kind of pleased to see he made hot chocolate, too. It sure beats water. Tyr gets a bit of a smile as she hands the clothes to him.] Maybe. I don't really know.

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ But that'll be so sad! It's perfect! >:3 ]

[ Not like she's fighting bosses!

He sighs lightly, but keeps smiling. ] We'll find out in the morning then. But anyway- [ And be begins walking towards the door. ] I'll be right back. Help yourself to the drinks.

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[Sad and perfect plot twist~]

[Not like she ever fights anything-!

As far as Rita's concerned, she spent enough time looking for them and didn't need to find out whose they were, too. Her mood's improved enough that as he heads for the door, she teases-] Oh, both of them?

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ Nothing better than a little heartbreak~♥ ]

[ Nope, never! That magic is just for show! ]

Only if you wanna share with me. [ His tone is equally light, not really expecting her to do it. He pauses at the door to add- ] Don't burn your tongue.

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[Gotta have an emotional punch, after all~]

[Nothing practical about it!]

As if I'd be that stupid! [Huff! And he will totally not hear that ow! when she...burns her tongue.]

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ Yep~ It doesn't mean anything if they don't get a little of that, too! ]

[ Not home or in the City!

Unfortunately, he doesn't, though he'd laugh if he did. She's like a big kid sometimes not like him at all. He changes clothes in one of the bathrooms and just leaves his clothes in a pile there, socks and all, as he returns to the room. The clothes are a little big on him, but only about as much as his coat is on her. It's sort of cosy. ]

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[Absolutely necessary~!]

[Nor anywhere...!

Her face might be a bit red totally not guilty as she turns to look at him, tongue sticking out--which she quickly hides and tries to cover up by talking.] S-so...Comfy?

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ Yep~! It'll help the ratings, too~! ]

[ Not in dungeons or underground or scary places-!

When he sees her like that, his smile grows broader. He even warned her and she still did it... ] Yeah, I feel great. [ And and pause. ] How about you?

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[And guarantee another season. :3]

[Especially not scary places!!

She has the feeling he might be making fun of her....] J-just fine!

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ And that there'll be a long run~ ]

[ Scary? There's no place that's scary for her!

He definitely is. And she's really cute when she's trying to hide it. ] Good.

[ He'll walk over to grab his cup. It still smells so nice. ] I'm glad you like the chocolate.

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[Yeees...and plenty more twists to come~]

[Absolutely none in the world!!

[She'll just keep trying to hide it and avoid taking another sip.] I never said anything about liking it.

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ To keep everyone on their toes! ]

[ Rita is fearless! ]

[ And he'll just stop smiling a little. ] Ah, then I'll have it if you don't. [ Siiiip. Oh, it is still sort of hot, huh? He pulls back. ]

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[So the'll never look away...]

[When it comes to anything!!]

[She eyes him, and settles the warm cup between her hands in her lap. Mostly, she's just being a weirdo...] No way. It's not like it's bad...

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ ...Like a mess :<

Monsters, people, ghosts, anything! ]

[ It's always funny when she is weird... ] Good. This was supposed to be a treat.

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[Yep. But for wonderful ratings!

Especially not ghosts!!]

[And she does it often...She lifts the cup again and blows on it. It needs to hurry up and cool down!] Well...thanks.

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ Everything for them-!

That'd just be silly! ]

[ If only Tyr thought to heat the water less... He pulls the sleeves of the pajamas over his hands to hold the cup. It's too hot! ] It's not a problem... It's one for me, too.

action; ♥!

[blastiafreak]

[Mwahaha!

Completely ridiculous!]

[Maybe while she's waiting, she can try teasing Tyr some more...And she just says the first thing that comes to mind.] Oh, so you wouldn't make it just for me?

action; ♥!

[stargathering]

[ This is true evil!

Especially when applied to Rita! ]

[ He looks up at her and actually doesn't catch that she's joking that time. ] Of course I would. This is mostly for you in the first place...
