E-Eh? Really? You think so?

Sure. I guess you'll need more time to practice before you're really good by professional standards. But....

It's definitely good enough for now. [She grins as she holds the cupcake away from him so as to be out of his arm's reach if he tried to grab it back--not that she'd expect him to.]

If they're good enough for you, Fenimore, I can't be too far from professional...

[She needs a great deal of willpower around him if she does want to stay thin, then.] I'm not that much of a connoisseur, really. You'd need to track down someone a bit more refined for that.

...You could make it as a professional now, I think, but I'll bet you're going to improve from here. [She examines the cupcake and thinks about what will happen if Simon does continue to improve. ...Man, they're hard enough to resist as it is.] It's almost a little scary to think about.

You're going to become irresistible if you improve too far. [Deliberate pause for about a beat.] Well, your cupcakes will, at least. [And she takes a bite out of said cupcake.]
blessingone: (it's my face now shirley)

[personal profile] blessingone 2010-10-05 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[Simon, she wouldn't have to tease you so much if you weren't way too adorable whenever she did. It's only the mouthful of cupcake that lets her resist giggling, which she swallows now. She hasn't realized that she lost him in the beat, though.]

Yeah. You make it hard enough as it is. [To resist the cupcake, that is. Mmm, that is a good cupcake.]

D-Do I...

R-right! Um... cupcakes... yes.
blessingone: (I'll be awful sometimes)

...whoops, reread and realized I misinterpreted the "do I" as the start of a longer question. derp

You'll have to learn to take compliments better if you do want to be a professional, though. [Gee, Simon really reacted strongly to the compliment, even considering she had intentionally flustered him first. He mustn't get enough of them. ...Not that it'll top her from teasing him.] Although...if you are looking at the "husband" path instead, it could be thought of as endearing.

U-Um... I might be considering it... ... ...
blessingone: (it's my face now shirley)

[personal profile] blessingone 2010-10-06 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
[Simon, you are ADORABLE.] "It"? Which one is it?

[identity profile] plumesdelamer.livejournal.com 2010-10-06 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
Um, well, I... could be a professional and a... a husband, right?
blessingone: (you're brilliant when you try)

[personal profile] blessingone 2010-10-06 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
[> Tsun.
> Relent.
> Find another way to tease him.]


That's true. I'm sure you'll do well at both. [Omnom cupcake.]
blessingone: (I'll be awful sometimes)

[personal profile] blessingone 2010-10-07 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
Of course you will. Remember what my true name is?
blessingone: (I'll be awful sometimes)

1/2 yeaaaaahhhh toes

[> Tsun.

Why shouldn't I? Getting married, settling down with some nice girl--probably spoiling her rotton, at this rate.... [She glances sidelong at the remaining cupcakes, looking amused.]
blessingone: (the illusion of a bright future)

[personal profile] blessingone 2010-10-13 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
I think it would make you happy. And I want you to be happy.
blessingone: (and to you everything will seem normal)

BRANCHING STORY PATH actually I misread the comment and wrote this reply (preserved here).

Except she hasn't realized what's going through his mind, so she's not nearly so aggressive as the choice makes it sound. Instead, after swallowing another bite:]
Hmm? Do you...?
