[Backdated to Sunday]

[Locked from Summoner and the eyes of children]

-I'll kill you, I swear it, you reject of slurry, you waste of genetic material. I will kill you and break your horns off and wear them as earrings you- [There's a loud crash, Mindfang having attempted to throw herself at the other blue blood, fury in her eyes only to be pulled to the side by some force and slammed into a desk.] FUCK YOU! I will destroy you Expatriate, I will show you what a piece of hoofbeast manure you are, what a runt of a barkbeast pup you are and I will shatter every bone in your body I, I... I will- [This goes on, a lovely background noise for all. Someone cover the ears of children pls.]

[Darkleer, in the meanwhile, seems to be quite calm. In fact, one could almost call him smug as he watches Mindfang in her fury. Then again, maybe it's the outfit that's caught so much of his attention. Anyone who knows Kanaya Maryam's work in fashion might be able to see her influence in the stunning dress, a lovely mixture of Victorian style and French Rococo. There is most certainly a corset involved. There's even some lovely jewelry around her neck! Nice, isn't it?]

[He reaches up as if to rest his fingers by his temple, glasses still on, and the Marquise seems to stiffen, body clearly being forced into straightening out. Just as stiffly, she seems to reach for a teapot so that she can pour a cup. There is a clear inner struggle in her fighting against something- it is quite possible that she wants to toss the pot at his head.]

[Darkleer just starts to speak.]

Isn't it amazing what a bath and a change of clothing can accomplish? While bestowed with a lovely title such as Marquise, our dear Lady Spinneret Mindfang was nothing but a ragged, crude, disgusting little pirate wench. Now she looks as a proper highblood should. [A tsk.] Alas, she is still merely a cerulean blood and must care for her betters.

That said, would anyone care to visit for a cup of tea? [He gives a smirk.] I am certain the good Marquise would adore serving some more.

[Mindfang gives him a clearly furious look at this, her hand tightening on the teapot and god does she want to hit him with it. But instead her arm just gently puts the teapot down, Mindfang slowly turning a shade of blue]

You mother fucking bucket slut, I am going to choke you with your hair, you will never see anyother moonrise, I will slaughter you and use your teeth as bullets you wiggler-

[There's a hard kick aimed at the table and yet again Mindfang attempts to attack him]

Action

[Oh hey Darkleer how are you? Oh oops Mindfang really doesn't care. She's got bigger things to worry about.

Like trying to break your face and/or your sunglasses. Both would be nice]

Action

[aim_exorable]

[Not his glasses! They are important and dear to him!]

[So he just uses the tech in her to make her jerk back again as he quietly sips at his tea.]

How rude. I gave you such an expensive gift and this is how you repay me? I suppose I can dress you like a noble, but you'll always have the manners of a bottom feeder.

[Just a little more antagonizing, he thinks. Just a little more and then he'll come out with it. Gosh, what if he's lost his touch after all these years? He does hope this enough... No, Darkleer! Keep it together! You're still a black stallion!]

Action

[shesapir8]

[And she is well aware they are the controls so whoops they gotta go.

Or they would be if he hadn't just made her body stop, Mindfang perfectly still. For now.]

You have me something that is threatening to crush my ribcage and make it near impossible to move. Not a gift. Have you ever worn one of these fuckers? They are truly a strage torture device. And this my retaliation will be far worse.

[Her words come through gritted teeth, her body still locked up thanks to him. But colour her impressed. She would have never expected such audacity and creativity from him of all trolls. Perhaps she'll find it in her to swoon and blame it on the corset later]

[msfabulosity]

What in all of Equestria is going on!?

DONE

[msfabulosity]

BOTH OF YOU CEASE AND DESIST THIS VERY INSTANT!

Such unspeakable behavior! What are you, a bunch of uncivilized, ungrateful, ruffian children!? I shall NOT stand for any of this!

First of all, as a lady, madam, you should be grateful and respectful of the work put into such a beautiful Victorian dress which clearly has been stitched and sewn by patient and hardworking hooves, and furthermore don it with all the grace and dignity of a lady!

Secondly, my good sir! To be so condescending with that attitude! Why, I haven't the slightest idea who I am seeing and hearing this very moment! You must compliment the lady and make her feel good about herself, not call her such naughty and frankly disgusting things!

If you are having a disagreement, so be it, but I will not and cannot allow such petty and dishonest behavior to occur between two beautiful creatures who could otherwise be sitting comfortably while respectfully chatting amongst one another over a nice cup of tea! And to have it broadcasted before all of Vatheon! Have you no shame? Have you no manners nor common sense!? Think of all the lovely afternoons you have so rudely interrupted!

I have the right mind to march down there this very instant and teach you a lesson in proper etiquette! And before you declare this as none of my business, I will have you know that with this as a public broadcast, you have made it my business!

Good day to you both! Oooh!

[And the feed ends. Feel free to contact her back, but there will be no guarantees she won't be seething still.]

crying

[aim_exorable]

[Sad whinny! Sad whinny! He immediately tries to call back.]

Miss Rarity, please wait! Allow me to explain, please.

[Mindfang, not a fiddling word.]

[shesapir8]

[Rarity gets a double bird flicked at her.

What, Darkleer said no words.]

[Video]

[stridercentric]

[Well. Well. That's quite the show Bro was watching, there. Darkleer, you sly dog, he clearly needs to give you more credit for badassery. And he'll be damned if he doesn't respond to this. The pirate bit in particular catches his interest.]

'Ello poppets! You two lovebirds might wanna turn off the communicator before you 'man the cannons and prepare to board'. Or, y'know, don't. Can't say I'm not curious about how troll hatesex works.

[Video]

[shesapir8]

Fuck. You.

[Look she has used all her best material on Darkleer and also it can be really hard to catch your breath in a corset.]

[Video]

[stridercentric]

[Bro is not deterred! It's a little tricky to troll when he's forced to tell the truth, but he'll manage.]

Well, shiver me timbers. I'm flattered, but you ain't my type. 'Sides, at this rate I'd say that honor's gonna go to someone else tonight.

[Video]

[aim_exorable]

I'm afraid I cannot speak for the sort of filth Mindfang gets up to in her spare time, but I'm not an exhibitionist very often.

[...Truth curse, stop, those last two words did not need to be said.]

[Video]

[stridercentric]

Very often, eh? Interesting. But if your classy lady over there ain't up for it, there's not gonna be much of a show.

[Video]

[fightforastar]

[What is even going on here.]

...tea at Cid's is starting to look a lot more civil.

Did someone lose a bet?

[Video]

[aim_exorable]

[Trolls.]

No- unless underestimating someone while claiming you have all the luck counts as a bet.

[That might just be tempting fate, however. Darkleer moves just a little ways away from Mindfang so he can talk quieter.]

I'm actually in the process of trying to court her, Miss Tifa. We've- [He glances back at Mindfang.] We've recently agreed to a kismesisitude, which is a romantic rivalry of sorts to put it very simply. I know I hate her, but I was worried she didn't really hate me for, well, me.

[He looks worried for a moment.]

Does she look quite incensed from an outsider's perspective?

[Video]

[fightforastar]

I suppose that's like the opposite of a... [What was the word?] ...a moirail?

I'd say she looks pretty pissed, yeah.

[Video]

[crabbygenius]

[There's a rather amused Washu just watching this little scene play out.]

I can see someone's having fun with a new playmate. Should I have a first aide kit ready or do you have everything handled~?

[Video]

[aim_exorable]

Oh, I think I will be quite fine. Thank you for the concern, Miss Washu.

Re: [Video]

[crabbygenius]

Always Darkleer~.

If you need suggestions on interesting things to do with your new playmate I might have a few~.
