ANNOUNCEMENT 012
[Whoops. She's running a little late it seems, for today, the intercoms buzz into action a little late.]
Ahem. Attention, students!
[The husky voice of - well, the Voice that speaks over the intercom - echoes through the halls.]
Now that we're all done with our bout of spring sickness, it's time to buckle down to our studies! Remember that tests may appear at any time, and it would be such a shame if you were all to fail and be kept back another year.
And don't forget to be welcoming to our new arrivals, won't you? They're quite behind the times, after all.
[Click.]

That'd be a great idea, it'd make reaching some places a lot quicker. I could try and get some shots from the air...
[Death by falling from a dragon Kai, hello.]
Uh, but the game with Ryou, yeah. I've definitely got at least one idea for that. Been practicing, I think I've got the snow in the hallways thing down now.
[Sort of. He 'sort of' has it down. In small doses, it should be okay...as long as no one yells 'Boo!' while he's casting it.]
no subject
[She's trying to practice hiding a card in her sleeve then taking it out without being seen, but that's easier said than done.]
What did you have in mind?
no subject
[Kai's not intentionally trying to be a sap, it's just coming out that way. The comic book half-rises as though he's going to smack himself again before he lets it fall, watching her hide the card. Yeah, that's kind of obvious. Not going to point it out, though.]
Well, I mentioned the Ice Troll story I made up, and I think I can get small sections of the hallway cold enough to go along with things...so while we're wandering through, I can set up the story about the how since the Trolls are invisible, the only warning you have before they attack is when it suddenly snows...
And then, well, wham.
[That sounds a lot less impressive out loud. Kai groans and slouches down farther.] It sounded a lot cooler when I was scaring Tadakuni with it, trust me.
no subject
[The fact that he's looking at it is enough of a hint, and she keeps trying.]
Well... it doesn't sound too bad, Kai. I like it!
no subject
[Naw, he's happy with the color he found for her. Besides, the less time spent in rooms in the North Wing, the better.]
Really? Thanks.
[He gives her a pleased little smirk from his spot before tilting his head at her sleeve. Huh, better. Speaking of hiding things...]
Know of any really good hiding spots around here? Not in the building itself, but maybe outside? After that last bit of nonsense with the building being weird, I need somewhere else to stash some of my stuff. I'd like to be able to get to it next time.
no subject
[She smiles back in return, then shakes her head a little.]
Sorry, I don't, really. There's some caves out in the forest, but that's about all I know.
no subject
It's okay, I'll just have to hunt around some more. I still can't find one of my potions, it wasn't where I'd left it when I finally got back to the classroom I'd hidden it in.
[He's just realized talking about hiding things around the school is probably making him sound like he's gone paranoid. Uh.]
I've kind of just been...um. Sometimes it's not a great idea keeping all my stuff together.
[That really doesn't help, does it.]
no subject
No, I understand. With the way this place works, disappearing or twisting around, it's better to have caches of stuff hidden in case of emergencies, right?
no subject
[Good, she doesn't think he's nuts!]
Bakura inspired it, actually. What with Ha Des banging my door in, I thought it'd be a good idea. [Kai doesn't even sound angry about that anymore. If anything, he sounds amused.]
no subject
It is. I'd do the same, but I don't have much to hide, myself.
no subject
[Kai lets out a soft sigh, nudging the table leg with his foot.]
I was going to try making a three layer cake in the next day or two, you want me to save you any? It's going to be chocolate with strawberry in the middle. Nothing exciting, but after the pot roast incident, I think I should stick to stuff I'm good at.
[Wait, almost burning down the kitchen is what he's good at.]
no subject
[And... swip! There's the card in and out of her sleeve quickly.]
no subject
[Shaking his head with a grin, Kai sits up suddenly at the appearance of the card. Hey!]
That was good!
no subject
[She'd been more focused on the talk than practice.]
no subject
[Awe, he's proud of you!]
Maybe it's easier when you're not concentrating so hard on it. Stuff works better that way sometimes.
[Like his art. He's got a few that've actually turned out better for letting his mind drift.]
no subject
no subject
...Want a candy bar?
[Because while he's been talking to her, apparently the back of his mind's been making googly eyes at the candy. Nothing ever changes with him.]
no subject
[She laughs a little at that, nodding.]
I'd like that, actually. I'm kind of hungry, now that I think about it.
no subject
[Tossing the comic on the table, he pushes himself up and goes over to stare at the machine, getting something he knows she likes before tossing it over.]
Catch!
[And back to the machine, because he suddenly doesn't feel like that Snickers bar anymore. Maybe something without peanut butter...]
Want a soda too?
no subject
Sure. Just don't throw it at me, okay?
no subject
I'm wounded that you think I would.
[Candy, soda for both of them, check. He smiles a bit as he sets her's on the table before dropping back into his seat.]
I save throwing sodas for people I don't like.
no subject
[Ahh, soda. She takes a drink of it, relaxing back in the chair.]
Like Bakura?
no subject
I've yet to throw a soda at him.
[That's not what she means, Kai. He shrugs and takes a sip, eyeing the far wall over the top of the can.
Then:]
Sort of.
no subject
[Sip. She's more curious than anything else. It's not like she expects Bakura to be a shining paragon of kindness and friendship.]
no subject
Same as last time we talked, pretty much. Tolerating each other.
[He should put his can down, yes. Right there on the table. In a second.
Oh hell, it's not like it's a good way to avoid answering. Kai sets the can down, playing with the ring tab.]
I might've adopted him. Sort of. It's more of a joke than anything.
