Characters: Sakura and Neji
Location: The ring
Time: Day 168, Hook/Sea-Witch game
Description:

[ The sound of faint music draws you toward the ring, too low for anyone to make out what's playing. Unfortunately, stepping into the ring today does not land you in front of a scrumptious feast or welcoming environment . . .

That is, unless you find dark and frigid cells inviting. It's a very small space, which you're sharing with a person who is mostly likely someone special to you. From the motion, it's fairly clear you're on a ship of some kind and there doesn't seem to be anyone aside from your partner around. A quick look will reveal a knife and a small vial labelled with a skull and crossbones nearby.]

Don't talk about this with Iolite, if you can avoid it without lying outright.

[medpacksapunch]

...Because they wont be happy, either.

[playfreebird]

...To a degree, but that's not precisely why.

[medpacksapunch]

Why, then?

[playfreebird]

It's true that Obsidian and perhaps Kyouko would be upset with me, and I don't relish the idea of having to explain the situation to Jaina, but primarily because I prefer not to give Vincent more information about our relationship than necessary. He's been curious, and I'd rather not give him ideas.

[medpacksapunch]

...Right.

Fine. It's not like I talk to Iolite much anyway.

[playfreebird]

[reaches to touch her shoulder, hesitating just short]

Sakura?

[medpacksapunch]

Hmm?

[playfreebird]

...I am sorry.

[medpacksapunch]

Well it's not your fault we're in this stupid game.

[playfreebird]

...No. Still.

[medpacksapunch]

[shrugs]

They make sense. Your reasons.

[playfreebird]

That doesn't make you happy about it.

[medpacksapunch]

Well of course I'm not happy about it.

[playfreebird]

So I'm sorry.

[medpacksapunch]

Fine.

[playfreebird]

[sighs and sits down]

[medpacksapunch]

[sits next to]

[...leans on]

This is stupid.

And I hate it.

[playfreebird]

[leans back a bit]

I know.

[medpacksapunch]

Do we just wait, then?

[playfreebird]

It seems so.

[medpacksapunch]

[huffs]

Great.

[playfreebird]

It isn't my first choice for how to spend time with you, no.

[medpacksapunch]

[laughs a little though it is not actually very... happy sounding]

No kidding.
