004 [video/action] [Forward dated to Friday Morning]

[ribbonbon]

[Video/Action for CH 4]

[When the video feed switches on, there's a bit of a bounce, as if the journal has just opened upon been dropped. When it finally stops, one can see a crooked view of a set of stairs. Seconds later, there's a sharp yelp and the camera catches a brief glimpse of a certain blonde teenager tumbling past, down the stairs, followed by the loud thud of her smacking into a wall. But fear not, this is no act of violence. Just a clumsy teen being clumsy.]

Ow...ow ow owwww...!

[For a minute or so, one can hear a few whines and quiet hisses of pain.]

Mmmrrrgghh... S...Stupid wings...! Ow... Okay. Just need to...get up. Ooogh, first my hair and now this...!

[Apparently, Pilouette has forgotten she even dropped the journal because after a few seconds, it gets some good footage of her feet shakily shuffling forward, right before she trips over it and, letting out a loud shriek, gets a nice faceful of STAIRS just as the feed cuts out.]


[Action]

[Later, after putting on a different set of clothes, Pils heads out to the grocery because there's one thing that always makes her feel better on a crappy day: BAKING~! At least the bad weather from the past week has cleared up. There's a chance one may run into her at the grocery or on the way back. Either way, with the way her luck is going, she's pretty paranoid and just trying not to make things worse for herself, so she'll be stepping carefully.]

[Later in the afternoon, Pilouette can be found sitting outside, behind the school, stuffing herself with sweets and generally being A DEGENERATE PUNK a mopey little sourpuss.]

((ooc: Feel free to indirectly/accidentally cause bad things to happen! It's like a big festival of bad luck!))

Comments

[rocketpunch]

I will, then! [She'll probably make it more awesome, too.] Which community housing building are you in?

[ribbonbon]

Cool, thanks!

I live in building 4, on the second floor.

[rocketpunch]

I'll do that, then! I don't have any tools with me, but I'll definitely stop by and take a look.

[And probably end up making it more powerful somehow. Ovens are kinda boring.]

[ribbonbon]

Great! Just let me know whenever you wanna stop by!

And if there's anything I can help you with, just let me know! Like, seriously, I totally appreciate this!

[rocketpunch]

I'll give you a heads up before I do, definitely.

I'm pretty busy with my secret project right now, though. Maybe we could just hang out instead?

[ribbonbon]

Sure! We can hang out if you want! Actually that sounds great!

...And I know you said it was secret, but...what kind of secret project is it? You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, though.

[But the word "secret" always seems to spark curiosity, doesn't it?]

[rocketpunch]

Once I finish it, I'll have more time, but I still take a break every now and then.

I've told a few people, but it'll be cooler if I keep it a secret, right? I'll tell you soon, I promise.

[ribbonbon]

Ahh, okay. Just let me know if you ever feel like hanging out while taking a break or something, okay?

[Pilouette grins and lets out a friendly giggle.]

And I get what you mean! Telling too many people about a secret takes all the mystery out of it!

[rocketpunch]

Oh, I will, I will! It's going to get all boring-boring, since I've made this particular thing before. Luceti just kinda lacks one, so, gotta fix that.

[She laughs, too. This is fun.]

I'll probably throw a party or something to celebrate, so there's definitely plenty to do.

[ribbonbon]

Now I'm really curious! It sounds like it's gonna be a pretty big deal...

[rocketpunch]

It's nothing big like a new teleporter or anything, but it'll still be cool.

[ribbonbon]

Even if it's not big, if it's as cool as you say, I bet lots of people will be really excited about it!

[rocketpunch]

I'm pretty excited about it, so yeah, I can't wait to show it off.

[ribbonbon]

[Pilouette grins. Through this conversation she has, at least momentarily, forgotten about the rotten day she's had. It's been a really long time since she's been able to just sit and talk with another girl and she's really enjoying herself. Between just talking about her day and the excitement brought by Precis's talk of her secret project, Pils really does feel a lot better.]

Well, when it's time to celebrate it, let me know if there's anything I can do to help out, okay?

[rocketpunch]

Oh, oh, I know! When it's time for the big reveal, you can make cookies, okay?

[ribbonbon]

Sure! I'll bake lots of them! And anything else that might be good, too! It'll be great, I just know it!

[rocketpunch]

This sounds like a lot of fun! I'm really excited now. The more, the merrier and all of that.

[ooc; and for reference, her elevator will be finished sometime in April. /o/ And Pils will definitely be invited over.]

[ribbonbon]

Great!

[She lets out an excited giggle before looking back to the other girl.]

Hey, Precis...Thanks. After talking for so long, I'm starting to feel a lot better!

[ooc: Suh-weeet~]

[rocketpunch]

H-huh? Oh...it's no big deal, that's what friends are for. Right?

[Blushing a little, though. She's not used to having friends yet! It's all so exciting.]

[ribbonbon]

Right!

[Having sorely missed her best friends back home, Pils is pretty excited herself to be making friends in Luceti. Still smiling, she stands up, dusting her pants off a little.]

If it's okay, I think I'll get going. After all, my homework won't get done if I'm sitting out here eating cookies, right?

[rocketpunch]

Oh, right! Yeah, you should definitely get that done.

[And Precis might be a little jealous. She's considering signing herself up for classes soon. She stands as well.]

I'll see you later, alright?

[ribbonbon]

Okay~! I'll see you around!

[And giving Precis a friendly wave, she begins to trot off, the events of the day weighing much less on her mind.]
