[ Video ] | Well it's not butts this time...

[lucentpalisade]

[ Sophie is sitting in front of the corel again, but this time it looks like she's bound and determined to stay put for a while. She must have come across some markers or paints, because she's sitting in front of the coral again, holding a piece of paper with ... what _MIGHT_ be Asbel, but the drawing looked nothing like anything human. She's not an artist okay? ]

Asbel. He looks like this. See? Asbel.

[ Talking to the coral again. She puts the paper down, and after a moment turns to the communicator. ]

I'm going to wait. If I go away, I'll miss seeing Asbel. He's very late.

[ Beat. ] . . . I wanted to leave a message for him with my name, but I don't remember how to write it.

[ She looks terribly sad about this to. And just when you think you've avoided Awkward Questions with Sophie(tm)... ]

The naked boy said it was rude to say "piss", but I thought it was ruder to say "pee". Which is right?

[ Or wrong, for that matter. ]

Still waiting for someone to be zippyzapped here?

[He scrutinized the drawing as best as he could from his end of the Feed.] Don't think I've seen anyone like that. [Not like he would unless scribbles came to life. Trying to be nice though.]

Do you know how to spell your name? Maybe you can-

[topsseifer]

WHOA. Wait.

W-What naked boy?

[lucentpalisade]

Uh-huh. Asbel and the Captain. They're late. [ She glances at the scribble drawing for a moment, nodding once as she turned back to Hayner. ]

He's not here yet, but I thought if the coral can't hear me, maybe it can see me. So since it doesn't know what Asbel look looks like, I drew a picture.

[ And a tilt of the head - hrm? ]

The one who got zippyzapped to Vatheon a few days ago. He had no clothes on.

[...

Okay. Well. Roxas is pretty sure he asked a lot of dumb or strange questions when he was first born. He doesn't know what to say about her friend, but he can handle this much, right?]

I don't think people really like either one.

Um, it's probably sort of rude to refer to someone as 'the naked boy,' too.

[Video]

[lucentpalisade]

Oh... how come? He was naked. [ And a boy. Therefore...! ]

[Video]

[coolerthansora]

[Yeah, he caught that part.]

Didn't you get his name?

[bufudine]

[... Serph doesn't know the answer to Sophie's extremely thought provoking question, so he focuses on the other part he can do something about.]

Would you like someone to teach you?

[How to write her name, that is.]

[lucentpalisade]

[ Her question is right up there with 'which came first, the chicken or the egg' :D ]

Yes. I want to surprise Asbel.

[bufudine]

[The answer to her question is something so profound that ordinary humans cannot comprehend it!

Serph nods.]

A friend?

[Since he can see the coral in the background, he's walking towards the Main Plaza from where he is.]

[twiceinhabited]

[She can deal with the "naked boy" part later.]

Do you know how to spell your name? I can teach you how to write.

[Video]

[lucentpalisade]

Um... [ She thinks about this. ]

I think so.

[Video]

[twiceinhabited]

Where are you? It'll be easier to show you in person.

[burntviolet]

[ Well... Hanako is a bit thrown off, but this girl sounds harmless enough. ]

... I think the first word is a bit more wrong to say than the latter, miss. Either way they're both not really polite terms to say.

[Audio]

[lucentpalisade]

Oh - okay. If they aren't polite, how come people say them?

[Audio]

[burntviolet]

Because they're either used to that language, or they say it only to people they're familiar with.

[ At least that's what she knows in her social ignorance... ]

[dualbladepaladin]

[Thankfully Hubert's sanity (and blood pressure) won't suffer too much right now. He manages to miss her conversation with the coral by a little under a minute, striding up to her calmly.]

There you are, Sophie. I was wondering if you were back here.

action;

[lucentpalisade]

[ But Hubert, you know so much, you would be able to explain it right away! Sophie glances up to Hubert curiously from where she sat. ]

Uh-huh. I'm waiting for Asbel. Do you want to wait with me?

action;

[dualbladepaladin]

[He's had enough brainbreak this month, thanks. :| ]

... Sophie, if he hasn't arrived by now...

[ah, damn. He doesn't want to tell her that, but he's just naturally a realist about these sorts of things.]

voice

[sigil]

[ honestly the last thing you wanna hear while casually scrolling through feeds on your sfc while chewing into a delicious piece of pizza is something about bodily fluids.

she's turned off enough to actually respond to this tbh. ]

You're both wrong. It's 'urine'. [ said flatly, and somewhat muffled through a bite of cheese. ]

voice

[lucentpalisade]

[ Be glad you missed her extremely important post about butts. ]

You're in what? [ You're in trouble for putting C.C off her pizza? ]

voice

[sigil]

[ more or less, yes— but like hell she's going to stop eating it. she does, however, momentarily remove the slice from her mouth after this last bite so that her words can come across more clearly: ]

'Urine' is the word you use. Not 'piss' or 'pee'.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... Wait, what?

Who...

[lucentpalisade]

Is something wrong? [ Everything, Sophie. EVERYTHING. ]

[ action ]

[martelapproves]

[ As seen previously, Mithos has been hanging out in the plaza, staring at the coral, as if he himself were waiting for someone.

... And then, he saw Sophie. Mithos sighed, got up, and slowly walked towards her. ]

Asbel, again?

[ He sounds tired, exasperated, and maybe a little bit disappointed, as well. ]

[ action ]

[lucentpalisade]

[ Sophie nods, tilting her head at Mithos curiously. ]

I'm waiting until he comes.

Are you okay?
