[Action - School]

[It's lunch time and Marisa has just managed to escape a gaggle of drone girls that had been intent on acquiring gossip about her 'boyfriend'. Once free, she finds herself a tree in the school yard to climb and enjoy her lunch in. So what if she's in a dress and if one stands at the right angle they might catch a glimpse of her panties? She's pretty sure her drone 'friends' won't find her in a tree.

Clearly she shouldn't be allowed to eat in peace, right?]



[Phone]

[One very annoyed witch picks up the phone after she gets home from school.]

Look. I don't care what anyone says, I'm not dating Guy 'Mustang'. You all probably know him as Guy of the Kutolah. And just because he calls me Lady Marisa and I'm at his house once or twice a week doesn't mean we're dating.

If I have to hear those damn girls ask me one more time about how 'hunky' he is, the Bowl-o-Rama, and if we're going up to Makeout Point anytime soon, I'm quite possibly going to set them all on fire. Besides, I'm already seeing someone that's not Guy.

So, if you hear anyone talking about that me-dating-Guy crap? Don't believe 'em.

[Tosses the towel to Marisa.]

Because she's said it straight up before. That she doesn't approve.

[Catching and sopping up the beer.]

And what was the context?

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

The town moved me in to live with Alice and she said she was okay with me dating Alice but she didn't approve of the two of us being married.

[Continuing with the questions to get a decent looks at the situation surrounding that time.]

How long ago was that? And was I still here or gone?

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

I don't think you were here but I doubt her opinion has changed either.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

You don't know that, ze. I'm trying to figure out the circumstances surrounding the time when she said that. Because if I was already gone, I think I understand why she said that.

Keep in mind, Patchy's not exactly good at expressing her feelings. And hides her own even better than Alice does.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

That's why you should talk to her about it.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

And what do you expect me to say?

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

I don't know. Can't you at least try something? You owe me a little, at the least.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

I guess I could...

Did you want me to talk to her before or after you propose?

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

Anytime is fine.....just tell her to not say anything to Alice.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

...alright.

[Marisa takes the soaked towel to the sink, rinses it and then wipes the table again. She then stops and stares at Shiki for a long moment.]

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

...what?

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

It's just...

Does it really matter what Patchy, me or anyone other than Alice thinks? Love trumps all, ze.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

Why shouldn't it matter?

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

Shiki... if everyone in the world was against you marrying Alice, would it stop you?

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

Look. Nothing would affect my decision but these things do matter. To disregard other people completely would be wrong.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

Just making sure, ze.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

I hate being tested.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

The test wasn't for you, so don't act like it was.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

Who was it supposed to be for then?

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

Me.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

That makes no sense at all.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

It does to me.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

...yeah. So what do you think about me and Alice...doing that.
