♥ [Action/Quad/Open] my depth perception must be off again
(ooc: I meant to post this ages ago and for one reason or another just haven't gotten around to it yet. This is backdated forever and ever and ever ago to after this post)
[Rinoa sits curled around Angelo in a shady, tree filled corner of the Quad, her face buried in the dog's furry ruff as she just sits and well pouts? Mopes? Sulks? Cries? There were any number of words that could be used to describe her current behavior and most of them fit. However, if someone were to look for it they'd see the tell-tale sign of tear tracks on the cadets face as well as the dampened portions of Angelo's furbut thankfully not enough to trigger much of a damp dog scent.
Her face still buried against the dog her voice was muffled as she voiced her complaint, thinking that only Angelo could hear her.]
Why's he such a jerk?
[Maybe she had taken some things for granted and just assumed they were true, but he didn't have to be so cold about it. It was becoming painfully clear that what meant the world to her was more or less nothing to him. The more she thought about it the more it hurt and the more upset she became. ]
[Anyone's more than welcome to stop by and bother girl and dog new and old CR alike.]

And then she sees a familiar lump of fur, and a more familiar person in blue. And against her better judgement, finds herself moving closer. If nothing else, maybe she can convince her roommate to take this to a place less public.]
"Who is such a jerk, Heartilly?"
[Instead, Mitsuru finds herself saying that after hearing the last bit of what Rinoa said.]
yay for typoing while tired
Squall.
[Then she parts from Angelo enough to see Mitsuru looking down at her.]
I guess you probably know him better as the commander.
[It was a valid conclusion after all the other girl still insisted on calling her by her last time!]
yay!
[More to the point, would Miss-Personal-Relations-Are-Still-Overrated even understand why? Mitsuru doesn't move from her spot when she asks that, still looking down with a half critical, half curious expression.
She still can't say she approves of this sulking in the middle of the Quad, but will hold off on saying that out loud.]
Re: yay!
[She sniffles, really it was a big deal okay? Even if Mitsuru might not fully get it, the fact that it at least mattered to her should be pretty obvious.]
He kissed someone else.
[What? She's totally in a corner of the Quad! Not to mention that this is the perfect place to sulk. Even in the mood she's in she didn't want to go back to the room in case Mitsuru was studying since self pity parties can get pretty loud sometimes.]
no subject
[It's going to take her a moment to fully process this. And determine what the appropriate reaction would be.]
"..."
[In this case, apparently the appropriate reaction is resisting digging the palm of her hand into her forehead. And keeping her voice as level and neutral as possible, without any hint of opinion.]
"...I take it that you are in a relationship with the commander, then?"
[Technicalities! If it's visible, it counts as in the middle!]
no subject
[Which was part of the problem right there.]
[What? No way. The middle was right in the middle where it was empty and she's totally to the side and under a tree.]
no subject
[Aside from either distancing herself from the problem, or getting her roommate up on her feet and out of
what STILL counts asthe middle of the Quad. After a moment of thought, Mitsuru finds herself beginning to decide on the last option; it's something to do, at the very least.]"Can you stand?"
no subject
!
[They meant a big deal to her though, which was part of the current issue.]
Stand? Of course I can. [Though she soon discovers that her legs are far more shaky than she'd thought they would be and it takes a little effort to get herself steady again.]
no subject
Nevermind."
[There's still a slight question lingering on her face, though; just how does a fellow student build up such a
technically illicitrelationship with the Commander? And react in such a way?Again, while pressing her head into her hand seems like a smart course of action, Mitsuru finds herself resisting it. Instead, she keeps her arms firmly crossed in front of her, not extending them while her roommate gets to her feet; such a gesture feels like it would be insulting, especially after Rinoa insists that she can get up.]
"I think first, it would be wise to move this discussion to a more private area."
no subject
[Rinoa's not used to people not knowing about the fact that she's been with Squall for a while now as well as the fact that she's from this world. Yet more things she's just kind of taken for granted.
Hey, that relationship so started before he was the commander, it's not her fault.She's actually grateful that Mitsuru didn't offer her any help. Rinoa's rather stubborn and independent when it comes down to it.]
I guess you're right. It seemed like the best place to go at the time though.
no subject
[And for a moment, her expression flickers and it looks like Mitsuru might have smiled, albeit sardonically, for a moment. It could have been a trick of the light, though.]
"...As well as unofficially teaching people how to properly maintain their focus in a distracting environment. My classmates have been...Inconsistent on their success on both subjects, depending on the individual."
[Mitsuru turns around as she says that, intent on making tracks out of (what still counts as the middle!) of the Quad, and towards the dorm rooms.]
no subject
[She's entirely used to this quasi-smiling attempts. Squall has them all the time. The amount of similarities between her roommate and her knight were becoming entirely too obvious over time. Though it made understanding her that much easier.]
I'm sure it's not that bad. It's been just fine in my classes and I'm sure we have classmates in common Mitsuru.
[She follows after the other girl though, Angelo following at her heels because there was no way she was leaving her mistress alone right now.]
no subject
[Mitsuru still isn't quite certain what to make of the dog, beyond acknowledging that Angelo is there and then moving on. There's still something of a sharp disconnect between Rinoa's pet and the S.E.E.S. animal teammate.]
"I find it a bit...Difficult to believe that people's priorities fall outside of class material while school is in session."
[That other comment catches her attention, though. And as they walk, she can't help but glance back and ask.]
"You share classes with Mochizuki and Kinneas, then?"
/paws at expired account, give her back her icons ;A;
[Just wait until she saw Angelo in action, maybe then it wouldn't bother her quite so much.]
Well, priorities are different for everyone, right? So maybe some of them aren't as worried about class, that's all.
[She frowns for a moment. Mochizuki, Mochizuki... ah! Ryoji!]
With Ryoji and Irvine? Of course I do. Irvine's a good friend and Ryoji seems like he's pretty nice.
/shakes until icons fall out
"...Perhaps, but I still doubt that there's much which can trump classwork. I'll grant you that Mochizuki is...Friendly enough, though."
[When he isn't discovering he's an avatar for destruction, at least. But that goes unsaid. Anyways, back to leading the way back to the dorm.]
I caved and spent my free LJ tokens on a paid. It's only 30 (icons) but it'll do for now. :3
Ryoji seems really nice, it's fun talking to him.
[She's trying so hard to remain cheerful and upbeat since being upset clearly annoys Mitsuru to some extent. If there's anything Rinoa's striving for right now it's to have as many people like her as possible for as long as she could. Hyne knew who'd want anything to do with her if, no when, her secret came out.
Finding out that Ryoji wasn't normal would probably be interesting, she'd probably really like knowing that she wasn't the only one who was considered normal and well... doom causing.]
