sorry

::You find this really shy girl with short brown hair downtown, in a rather decent skirt and jacket. She has cute short brown hair. And really shy. Like she has a lot of trouble making eye contact, fiddling with her PDA, nervously. She clearly needs help.::

::Cowers, closing her eyes as if afraid you'll hit her.::

[pureplainpatron]

...don't do that, I'm not going to hurt you, geeze. Why are you like this?

[thefifthmonarch]

... c... camera...

::Still cowering, afraid of you.::

[pureplainpatron]

...man, why can't you be someone I don't know? ::Erland sighs with mild frustration.::

...so what's this about a camera, now?

[thefifthmonarch]

d-don't know...?

[pureplainpatron]

Yes, you're cute like this, alright? But we've tried it before, it won't work between us, so I'm just getting blue balled over here.

So. What. About. A camera?

[thefifthmonarch]

... i don't like being mean anymore. too s-scary.

[pureplainpatron]

Honestly I think you're scared of your own shadow.

But. Camera?

[thefifthmonarch]

... scary woman... ::Taps fingers together.::

[pureplainpatron]

...scary woman with a camera?

::Erland can already tell this is going to be a long and painful process.::

[thefifthmonarch]

::Nods gently.::

With a magic bow ... and... sword... very scary... d-don't hurt me...

[pureplainpatron]

I'm not going to hurt you, geeze. You're so timid, I don't think I could raise a hand against you if I tried.

::Erland sighs. Why are the cutest girls either Noriko in disguise or high school students?::

No idea who she was, huh?

[thefifthmonarch]

... ::Taps fingers together, repeating "Um..." over and over.::

[pureplainpatron]

...shall I take that as a 'no'?

[thefifthmonarch]

::Withers. I think you can.::

[pureplainpatron]

Alright, alright. Well, guess it won't do any good to worry about it right now... I'm sure they'll turn up eventually.

::Erland looks at Noriko... man, if it only wasn't Noriko... ...regardless, he seems unable to help himself from petting her (top of her head down the back, going with the flow of the hair for minimal hair displacement).::

Would you like to go home now?

[thefifthmonarch]

::... clings very timidly. So that's a yes.::

[pureplainpatron]

::...so cute~ ...so unfair...! ...so conflicted. ;.;::

::Erland wraps an arm around Noriko, keeping her close.::

Alright then, you'll be safe with me.

::Erland starts to head in the direction of Ascendancy.::

[thefifthmonarch]

t-thank you.

::She wraps her around your waist, afraid of her own shadow. Maybe she'll stay like this?::

[pureplainpatron]

::Erland mentally 'hnnng's. He would so love to eat her up, but. Noriko. Even taking out the fact that she's married (and seems a bit loose besides), there's the fact that Noriko like this is so WEIRD.::

It's no trouble.

...but having you like this is... very weird.

[thefifthmonarch]

... it... feels better...

::She seems to be using you as a security blanket.::
