HAHAHA

[I can't believe this and yet here we are.

Seliph's been suckered into this by Fie and co, dastardly and devious in ways that his poor, unsuspecting soul was not prepared for--

Which is how when he's bundled into the same room Laura's in, he's wearing... this. (He at least was given the mercy of leggings, but it doesn't make him feel much better.)

... Awkward.]

[arseid]

[ Laura can probably count the number of times she's seen Seliph in inappropriate attire on one hand-- well, inappropriately dressed during a time where she isn't expecting it, which makes it a big fat zero.

Until now, which is why she glances up-- and does a double-take, eyes going wide because what in Aidios' name ]

S-- what-- what?

[ Bear with her, she'll remember actual words soon. ]

[inheiritor]

[... Oh god.

It's even worse.

Seeing the look on Laura's face... makes Seliph dip his head, face going red.

Agh...]

That...bad, is it?

[arseid]

No, ah, it's not that... it's merely... unexpected?

[ She's red. ]

[inheiritor]

[She's cute.

But.

It doesn't distract from how embarrassing this situation is.]

Ah.

So it is that bad... I... your friends are rather--difficult to argue with...

I... I will go change...!

[arseid]

W-wait--

[ WHO IS SHE GOING TO HAVE TO SCOLD LATER

Well, more importantly, she's reaching out to grab his wrist to stop him. ]

Seliph, just-- hold for a moment, it's not bad, it, ah... suits you--

[ Kill her. ]

[inheiritor]

[Okay, well.

He's stopped.

And.

Hesitant.]

Ah, that's...

What...?

[He's not sure he's happy that that's true, but he's glad Laura's not like... horrified.]

[arseid]

[ Seliph please, it's not like you showed up in only a thong. ]

You look... [ yep, she is still very much red. ] Ah.

... Very attractive. Moreso than usual, I should clarify...

[inheiritor]

[...Ah..???]

You...are serious?

[Now he's red, but... not entirely displeased.

Uh.]

[arseid]

... Have I ever lied to you?

[ If Laura could pout, she would be pouting. ]

[inheiritor]

N-no! Certainly not! I did not mean to imply...!

[Throw him a bone here.]

[arseid]

Then please believe me when I say that I meant it.

[ close enough of a bone?? ]

[inheiritor]

[... Close enough.

He tries to settle, though his cheeks are still red.]

I... yes, of course... I believe you...

[Ah...]

It is... a little embarrassing, though.

[arseid]

I... understand it's a little outside of your usual wardrobe...

But I like it on you.

[inheiritor]

I would not wear this on any other day, it's absolutely true.

[Why.]

That said... if you like it, it... is fine that I'm wearing it now.

[They're so awkward.]

[arseid]

... So long as I'm the only one to see it.

[ FIRMLY. ]

[inheiritor]

[O.... oh??]

I...am afraid your classmates have already seen it, as it was their idea--

[SCRUPULOUSLY HONEST.]

[arseid]

...

How many of them.

[inheiritor]

[A...h....]

A...few of them...

[arseid]

Names, please.

[ She's going to have Words. ]

[inheiritor]

Ah...well, it was Miss Claussel's idea... and Miss Reinford and Miss Orion were there as well... Mister Schwarzer and Mister Worzel were there, though I believe it was more in their attempt at, ah, damage control...?

[arseid]

... Ah. It would be Fie.

[ A VERY LOUD SIGH. ]

I apologize, Seliph. I'm sure she meant no harm, but she can be rather forceful.

[inheiritor]

[Aw, Laura...]

I believe, in fact, that she was doing this for you.

[arseid]

Eh?

[ no wait she looks genuinely surprised by this ]

[inheiritor]

That is, if her statement of "Laura had better appreciate this, you're an awful lot of work to deal with when you're flustered" was to be believed.

[Which he's embarrassed about, but you know.

Still true.]
