Happy New Year, everyone!~

*Selphie's room, in the background, may seem a little less decorated than it was before Christmas, but all those fairy lights are still there. She's wrapped up cosy in a blanket on her bed, a bunch of random books at her side*

So, it's a new year, and my resolution is to learn something new! You're a talented bunch, Vatheon, I know it - so whatcha gonna teach me?

*Lord knows, there's a lot of things that she could learn*

How bout you? Resolutions, anyone?

*Of course. How could she forget?*

Yup! I still am! And so are you! And.. plans are on hold..

[ A smirk. ]

Yeah, I kinda figured. I just got back. City decided to spit me out back home then toss me out again.

[ There's a pause though. ]

Hey, you seem like you got an idea on this. What's the big deal about the New Year celebration?

Really? What was it like going home? Did everyone know you were gone? What happened?

*Because going away and coming back fascinated her*

Well.. it's a new year, and people like to celebrate that, cause it's like... starting fresh!

Don't think anyone noticed.

[ There's a huff while he settles against the tree he was leaning against. Sorry, Selphie. You're the only other person he knows so he's gotta ask.

He seems to sink into his scarf a bit though. ]

So... what's with a kiss on New Year?

...kiss?

*Selphie blinks and shakes her head a little*

I guess it would be romantic to have someone to kiss when it turned to a new year...

...but I didn't get one...

It's not like its got any meaning to it, right? It's just a stupid kiss.

[ Sorry if this came out of nowhere, Selphers. It's just been on his mind. ]

You humans have weird New Year traditions.

Mm...No. I think it does. I think it's an important kiss. Because it's the first one of the year... It's definitely supposed to mean something.

*Have a half-shrug of slight disappoint as she wriggles a little beneath her blanket*

So... I just didn't get one because I guess I don't mean enough to anyone for them to want to give me a kiss that means something..

*At least, she really hopes that she'd get one little meaningless kiss from someone..*

[ There's a little color to his cheeks though as he manages to scrunch down into his scarf a little more. ]

What's it mean then? Unless it's the kind of kiss where someone's just messing with ya, right?

*Oh, really, talking about kisses. Selphie's reaction is pretty much the same, but she does peer at him curiously*

Did somebody kiss you?!

[ ...AW HERE IT GOES. Suddenly redness. ]

N... no way! Kissing's stupid. Just... kinda crossed my mind! Someone was making a big deal about getting a kiss on New Year's eve.

*And now Selphie's that little bit redder too*

Kissing...kissing isn't stupid! It's lovely and romantic and.. and if someone kissed me at the new year then... I would have thought it was lovely...

Ch... love... you're just as bad as that love freak I know back home! Won't shut up about it!

[ Admittedly, he kinda misses that love freak. But he's getting back on topic. ]

I.. it was just prolly to mess with me anyway.
[ Scoff. ] That idiot.

Well.. I just think it would be nice..

*Selphie blinks and sits up suddenly*

You did! You did get a kiss!

[ Oh great, you found him out. ]

It was just a peck on the cheek, okay? It's not like it meant anything, right?!

[ Keywords. I'm serious. ]

*Okay, so maybe she's a little bit jealous because how come she never even got a peck on the cheek? But still - this is exciting!*

Ooh, really?! Who was it?!

[ Why oh why did he have to ask THIS particular human anyway?! ]

Like I'm gonna tell you! 'Sides, I told you, it probably doesn't mean anything anyway!

[ Snort. ]

He probably just likes messing with me like that.

Aww, c'mon... I bet I don't even know them anyway~

*Selphie giggles and shakes her head - there's no getting out of this now*

Nu uh! No way! It totally means something! He wouldn't do it if he didn't really like you and it wasn't supposed to be special!~

[ Well, better one human than everyone on the network. But then again, Laharl wasn't really that desperate for information.

He's just gonna huff and fold his arms behind his head. ]

No way. That weirdo's just got a problem with me. Clingy all the time, picks on me. The kiss probably didn't mean anything anyway!

I'm not telling!

[ Does it feel like having a cranky little brother yet, Selphie? ]

*Okay, so now Selphie's sitting up so much that the blanket has fallen from her, revealing her nightdress*

He's clingy? And picks on you a lot?!

*Oh ho, she looks excited*

Then he *definitely* likes you!

*Does it feel like having an annoying big sister, yet?*

[ Why, yes. Yes it does. However, not so annoying. Just...big sister who teases a lot.

Though he's every single shade of crimson now though. ]

THERE'S NO WAY HE LIKES ME!

[ Folding arms behind his head now as he rests the SFC against a leg, facing him. ]

Besides, he probably likes someone else. Big deal.

*And Selphie's just giggling a lot. This is fun! Besides, it's always nice to see someone all excited and embarrassed about a bit of romance*

Well, he obviously doesn't. Cause if he did, he'd've kissed them at New Year instead.

The hell should I know if he already did!

[ Another huff as he scrunches down into his scarf again. Arms go down to fold right onto his chest. ]

I'm telling ya, he's just messing with me.

[ A pause. ]

But I did kinda wanna know why people do that anyway.
Stupid Izaya...

Izaya?

*Selphie blinks, and though she nestles more comfortably on her bed, her expression hardens a little*

Are you and Izaya really good friends?

[ ...oh crap. Did she hear that? ]

I toldja. The guy's got a problem with me!

[ He stops a moment, turning his attention up. ]

But I guess he's the only guy I know here.

[ A beat. ]

Geez, don't tell me you like him!

*Selphie tipped her head back and laughed at that question - oh, so funny!*

Y'know, Izaya is a really cute guy, but we're friends. He's one of my favourite people in Vatheon.

..so you do like him, hmm?
