OH DESIIIIIIRE (FUU)
Who: yuka-tan (
tsundyne) & that jerk who won't give his name (
nonsensical)
Where: plaza
When: BACKDATED LIKE HELL HATH NO FURY after...hallow..een-ish...LMFAO
Style: first
Status: closed
[ tea is nice— it's perfect for satiating one's mind, and it's a common conversational tool; despite its inefficiency to settle break's mind, it's at least tasty and, of course, his go-to excuse for having a chat with people. it's also classy— unfortunately, though break might give off the appearance of class, it's something he lacks.
maybe that's why he's taken over a whole corner of the plaza to himself— though not intended for use of himself only, as he was waiting for a guest. should the guest arrive, they would be presented with the view of a table that looked a tad different from how your normal café tables within vatheon appeared— in fact, it stands out quite a bit!
sitting on one end as if this were entirely normal is the most abnormal man alive— smiling, as if he were perfectly normal.
but normality is so overrated, normally— wouldn't you agree?
let's be mad this afternoon. ]

What the hell is he getting at here?]
What do you mean by that? What thing in my body?
[brb playing dumb as she watches him lick off that icing.]
no subject
he'll ignore her feigned ignorance, since she must know what he's talking about; but just in case she should try to continue the charade— ]
I can see it, you know. What is it?
no subject
[She doesn't like this one bit. Even if he doesn't know anything, he certainly knows how to rattle her, and she's really quickly becoming more uncomfortable with this. She certainly is under no obligation to answer for him, but he's making it rather difficult to refuse.
...]
Tell me.
[What does he know—?]
no subject
[ honest enough! he really can't discern what it is, and that's primarily what's troubling him— he's never seen anything quite like this before. clearly summonable, and yet not a chain... ]
Therefore, I really should be the one telling you to tell me what it is, wouldn't you say?
[ there's a pause as he brings his teacup to meet his lips— ]
Bring it out.
no subject
She'd shown Tiir once, because he was in need.
But him. This guy right in front of her...he only seems overly curious, and nosy.]
...Excuse me? Y-You can't tell me what to do, even if I did know what you were talking about!
[—Personas aside, the notion that he could see into her body is creepy enough on its own.]
1/2
You really should stop playing dumb, Miss Yukari—
2/2
1/2
He hasn't given her one.
—and she's never been good at hiding her anger and emotions anyway.]
2/2
But still, she can recognize that this isn't exactly a good situation.
A low growl, under her breath, and she speaks softly.
...]
...Say whatever you want. I'm not about to conform to someone who won't even give me his name.
[She looks around, and there seems to be something silent in her expression, aside from the obvious nervousness.
Not here.]
no subject
[ he smiles in what appears to be a genuinely friendly manner and offers her a hand— ]
Pleased to make your acquaintance.
[ checkmate. ]
no subject
Oh what, now that I've got something you want, you'll give it to me? Jeez.
[Forget this...how does she even get herself into these things?]
1/2
yeah okay no he's laughing now. ]
That's how the world of information works, Miss Yukari! [ exactly so, in fact! there are a few tricks here and there, but the essentials—
and this is only common sense! SENSE! what a hilarious notion, coming from the clown himself of all people— ]
2/2
no subject
. . .]
Please— M-Minato is my best friend. What could you possibly tell me about him that I don't already know?
[Especially annoyed now! She's trying to remind herself that this is exactly what he wants out of her, but—
A part of her is nervous about what she'll hear. He's pushing her buttons.]
no subject
[ he knows she's at least curious, otherwise she would've shut him down already! he smiles in her direction, picking up a sugar cube to pop into his mouth rather than his tea. ]
Perfectly understandable should you prefer it not, though I might add!
no subject
What I wanna hear, who I am...
You don't know anything!
[Except that's clearly not true. Clearly he's pushed some buttons already...and the fact he can sense anything at all about her Persona is pretty telling.
...But she won't admit it. She can't.]
no subject
Repetition will not persuade me to the same denial that you have achieved, Miss Yukari.
[1/2]
Ugh. The best thing she can do is to not get worked up about this kind of thing, isn't it? How else is she going to think rationally...
Get out of this?]
[2/2]
In a sense, plenty of people are already aware of their abilities here. Certainly not everyone--but definitely more than back at home. and though she hates giving in, perhaps there is something to be done here after all.
Some opening...]
So you really want to see her that badly?
no subject
I highly doubt the plaza is the time and place for such a thing, Miss Yukari— but thank you very much for admitting it!
[ a clink as he sets down his teacup. he leans in from where he's sitting on the table toward yukari's seating; the table isn't very long, either, so he's able to stop just a foot's distance from her face— undoubtedly casting a bit of a shadow over her. he seems really pleased, if facial expression alone is anything to go by. ]
I would still very much like to discuss Mister Minato with you, however.
no subject
No. Words. NO WORDS for how much that infuriates her. Oh my gosh, she could kill him, or at the very least punch him in the face. It's a lucky thing for him that he's actually right, about the plaza. She'd thought the same thing, after all; but a reminder, no matter how nasty, never hurt anyone.
She shoves her chair back to put more distance in between them, because personal space is something she happens to value.]
Yeah? ["Too bad."] What about him?
[Still looks pretty angry, obviously. He'll need a lot of luck to get her to answer...well, anything else.]
no subject
He is not among the living.
no subject
This is hardly the way she wanted to be reminded.]
...
Did he tell you that?
1/2
'did he tell you that?'
why would she say that...? was she taking him literally, when he meant this in a purely figurative sense? in that case it meant that somewhere in this odd little group of childrens' timeline, mister minato was deceased.
HM. ]
no subject
Where is he, I wonder...? [ and he does so wonder in more than a single way, now. ] Perhaps it is an inquiry I should propose to him myself.
[ break sits up, adjusting himself fully to the right edge of the table in the process, and thereby closer to yukari once more. he picks up a nearby fork, popping one last piece of vanilla iced confectionary into his mouth before adjusting his sleeve— ]
Good day, Miss Yukari! I thank you so kindly for your company this afternoon.
[ with that, he reaches forward to catch yukari's hand with his own, offering it a single kiss with a smile.
he lets go immediately after, giving a slight wave before gripping the edge of the table with both hands. ]
Be seeing you!! ♥ [ his tone is a far cheerier voice than before; and with a laugh he lets himself fall backwards off the table, legs kicking up as he ducks beneath the tablecloth headforemost— it's quite a comedical representation of a backflip, but it gets the job done.
he's disappeared from sight quite well beneath both table and tablecloth by now— yukari should know well enough by now what she would find if she looked. ]
no subject
She's immediately getting the sense that she's said something she wasn't supposed to. Always saying what's on her mind, she's got to learn some restraint sometimes...restraint on her emotions, keeping them under control. It doesn't help when Break moves to kiss her hand; she flinches and tries to pull away, disgusted, but he releases it before she can even manage.]
H-Hey, wait!
[She reaches after him, as she sees him duck beneath the table, knowing what comes next...
And is left staring, flabbergasted once again, as she stands up abruptly.
She sighs, and looks under the table anyway, despite knowing what she'll find (nothing); and after confirming that he's gone, she sits back down with a shake of her head.
...It certainly didn't feel like they were done talking, but...maybe this is for the best. She decides to finish the rest of her tea, utterly annoyed, before leaving.
Xerxes Break.
Not a name she plans to forget any time soon.]
