" ..ah suppos' ah can work wit' it.

[ A shrug, tossing her free arm over the back of the bench. ]
" ..s'what ah expected, y'know? "

" ..pss'haw.. " [ Waving her free hand, but she's definitely a little warm- tossing herself down next to Fi. ]
" Maybe? Ah'unno. Ah try not t'ah call allat 'bout m'ahself.

..Not sayin' ah'm too fond'a the idea, but- "

" Hell, ah'd hardly say ah land 'cute', doll.
Lott'ah things, but that? No-sir-ee-bob.
Ah'd leave that t'ah, y'know.. Rose. Gals like that. "

[ ..snnrk-
A snicker, and she meets the bump with a little shove right back- one that she's clearly holding back on, given it's the same side as her prosthetic arm. ]

" /Still/! It's th'ah principal of th'ah thing! "

{ NC }

[ Just. Simply reaching over to push the brim of /his/ over his eyes. ]
" An' y'er's could do wit' an adjus'ment, sugah. "
[ ^ ..immediately failing not to smile like a dumbass herself. ]

[ ..blink?
. . .
It dawns on her that she isn't even really sure why /she/ knows this. Not like the concept really feels.. /intimately/ familiar. ]

" ..eeeeyyhhh.. " [ ..handwaggle. ] " ..We can take y'ah sometime. Ain'nothin' special, but we can. "

" ..y'know? Cheap l'il 7/11 slushie? "

[ There's a stare for a moment, squinting like she's figuring something out..
But she shrugs right back. ]
" Sui'cher'self. "
[ Slurpee get !! This is truly her life's greatest achievement. ]

" ..th'as what ah think, anyhow. "

...

[ ..her smile flickers, mouth falling open into a small 'o' for just a second. Well..
. . .
That's something in her memory to worry about.
But as quick as it came, it's gone- her face back up, and she waves her hand dismissively. ]
" Fit as a dang fiddle, promise y'ah that. "

" Ha. Whatev'r y'ah say, Fi. "
[ She follows along happily- making a conscious effort to trail /beside/ Fiona, and not with. ]

[ just. slow glance. glancing back off to point over with her thumb. there are no words, and yet the "what the fuck is this" is palpable. ]

A small huff of amusement back, arms coming up to cross. ]

" ..weeell. Ain't'chu a gentl'ady?

She sighs. ]
