[voice] A stormy question

[Hello Luceti, is the nice little ice storm distracting you from post-Valentine's woes? Don't worry, here's a grumpy marine asking questions to painfully reminds you all.]

Seeing as we're all stuck inside -- [Once again, an usually feminine voice from Smoker's journal account.] -- I've got a question for everyone affected by the event.

Are there normally lines you won't cross in relationships that the Malnosso seem to cross for you? Or do they seem to take those into consideration instead? Since they seem to know us pretty well, it begs the question whether they're using our weaknesses, or if it's completely random.

And if anyone needs help out there in the storm, let me know. This weather is good practice.

[ooc: and feel free to threadjump like the dickens. It might be the only time Smoker keeps quieter than not, seeing as he's a girl now.]

You didn't even tell me about her so how I was to know?

You didn't know her from before, what's the point of lying to a seventeen years old harmless girl but not to the pirates?

None of the pirates found me and I didn't talk to them at all... except one who already knew.

I wasn't trying to lie to her, I was trying to leave it simple, and I did. Do you want me to tell her the truth now?

You did a good job for it being something you weren't trying to do. Sure, go and try to tell her the truth, good luck explaining that you lied.

Fine.

Be careful with your questions anyway. Anymore third grade and she'll think you're another bully.

[Quiet.] I am hardly that.

You lied and you ask many questions as if you're interrogating everyone around you. Even if you're not a bully, she may think you are.

Bullies don't ask questions. And I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have a mistaken impression of me. We were going to talk about books before...

[Sighs and waves a hand.]

Police officers who are interrogating people and perform a third grade until they get all the answers they want can be a type of bully.

How is that a type of bullying? I'm not holding them hostage to questions. Anyone who doesn't want to answer, doesn't have to.

You don't answer all the time.

I don't care about being polite, neither have weird ideas regarding social interactions, others do.

I'm pretty much inclined to think that's their problem.

However, I'll make an exception for her.

You should, yes.

[Screw the others, he only cares about Kotomi. Not that way though.]

Duly noted.

[Smoker is confused. Is it little sister type? Does Ikki just fail friendships worse than Smoker realize? OH WELL.]

[If only it was little sister type... Ikki didn't seem to have issues with Selphie, though.]

[That's true! And fuck believing anything other than his instincts. Instincts all the way.]

So when's the next time you're hanging out?

With whom?

[Wary of that question.]

Kotomi. Who else would you be hanging out with?

Selphie, you, Hyoga, alone... I have many options.

[Apparently two people and a dog are many options now. Well, there's the penpal, Rin, maybe he could be an option as well. Also no, he's not saying more, apparently he didn't hear whom Smoker was asking about.]

We were only speaking of one of those options. So when are you going out with Kotomi again?

[Purposely made it sound like a date this time. Punishment for avoiding it.]

I've never gone out with her to begin with. So it's hard that it would be "again".

[It's true, they can meet around the village but they haven't really dated even during the experiment. What they do is make sure to talk to each other at least once a day. Usually he makes sure to call in the morning and at night before bed time at least.]

Not even to the library together?

What have I lost there?

That's the only reason you'd go?
