Twenty-Sixth Flame-[Voice/Action]

[gogglesyndrome]

[Taichi's running around Luceti dressed in new winter clothes he received from Raine earlier that day and currently he's going to try and find her to thank her. He's bouncing more than usual and he's also munching on a cookie that tastes distinctly like lemons. Oh well.]

Finally! Happy birthday to me! Take that, Matt, now we're the same age again.

[In other words, Luceti, prepare for a human tornado of boy running around in the snow now that he actually can. He's wanted to run around since discovering Tear got kidnapped, so he's kind of just going. Feel free to bump into him.]

[ooc: Pretend this is backdated to the 20th because I was fail and gone all day. Also, thank you to the awesomely nice anon who renewed Taichi's paid account! I don't know who you are, but ♥!]

It does between me and Matt. It's always been that way. [Busy watching though.]

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

It doesn't mean it has to be. [She walks over to hand him the mug.] Here you go.

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

But it's kind of fun sometimes. [Takes the mug.] Thanks. [Proceeds to start blowing cool air on it.] Besides, that's just how things go.

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

But how do you think he feels about it?

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

I dunno...I think he's used to it, too.

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

[That's not the impression she's gotten. But she lets it go for now, so that he can at least take a sip.]

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[Busy blowing on his cocoa to cool it down still before taking a sip of it.] ...well, maybe. I know some things bug him sometimes.

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

You simply have to keep in mind that there are always different perspectives. Even if most of them go unsaid.

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Okay, but why do they go unsaid?

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

Lets look at it this way, Taichi. Do you ever share everything that's on your mind? Even as open as you are, you always hold something back, because you don't want to worry or upset others. Or it simply feels silly, or too personal to mention.

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

...yeah, that's true, I guess.

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

It's just something to think about. [She goes to retrieve her own cup.]

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Right...[Goes quiet, watching Raine and sipping his cocoa, though he's a bit sulky now.]

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

[Oh, Taichi. She's just going to quietly sip and look a little distracted, while also trying to figure out a better way to cheer him back up again.]

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[Distraction and subject change GET. Maybe.] Where's Genis?

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

[Is this really the distraction you want on your birthday?] Hm? He's... out, I suppose. How is your cocoa?

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[We are not buying that excuse :| But ignoring it for now.] It's great. Thanks again, Raine.

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

I'm glad you like it. There's still more left, so you're welcome to have another. [Hm. Maybe a snack should go with it. There are a few leftover cookies...]

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it tastes fine. I might take you up on that. [He's not sure how he feels about that, but hey, he'll let Raine do whatever will distract her...for now.]

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

[It's not as if he's not trying to do the same thing, or anything. She'll bring him a small plate of the leftover cookies though.]

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[But that's not the point] How many of these did you make?

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

You ended up with most of them, but I put about a dozen in the jar.

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

They're really good. You should have kept more of them if you wanted. [Granted, that would mean less for him and that would be a bummer, but he won't tell her that.]

[Action]

[wise_maiden]

Really...? I'm glad you liked them.

[Action]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Yeah, definitely!
