06 - week six

WEEK SIX

Sunday starts with more aches and pains than you might be used to. Florence patched people up after Saturday’s lesson, sure, but it’s not a complete cure - not to mention it doesn’t ease the sting of betrayal. Some classmates that you thought would cooperate wound up breaking your trust in the end, and this week will be interesting with the fallout.

It’s hard to say what this week will have in store otherwise. Things are changing, and it’s not clear what this means for all of you. On the bright side, however, the creatures and places you once knew from home have suddenly disappeared, so that's less that you need to worry about. There are new areas for you to look at as well.

[partymagician]

I... don't know what to say to that.

[ He's really seeing the side of Hien that's an absolute menace now. ]

[selfconcept]

[ :)

Hien just smiles to himself and continues to paint. ]

[partymagician]

[ He lets out a soft sigh, but it’s affectionate. Guess they’ll get married at some point… he thinks. ]

Your smile is so nice.

[selfconcept]

So is yours when you mean it.

[ Absolutely no hesitation. ]

[partymagician]

Well, I do mean it when you're around.

[ So. Yeah. ]

The smile you had just now... was it just a reflex?

[selfconcept]

Who knows...

[ There's some sort of playful tone in his voice. Looks like Fai has some homework to do. ]

[partymagician]

[ That just makes him laugh. ]

I like you like this.

[ He likes Hien in most instances, but this? This is nice. ]

[selfconcept]

Full of mischief? Getting a reaction out of you?

[ Both?? ]

[partymagician]

Both. I feel like I'm seeing more sides of you.

[ And maybe less hollowness?? ]

[selfconcept]

You can see them at any time.

[ He's saying that Fai has the power to make Hien feel that way. ]

[partymagician]

[ Ah... that makes his heart beat a little faster, but he doesn't let it show on his face. ]

Can I see other sides of you too?

[selfconcept]

If you can manage to bring them out, yeah.

[ There. Now he takes a break so that the paint can dry. It's quick dry paint, so he doesn't have to wait long. ]

I'll be rooting for you.

[partymagician]

[ Now that Hien is free, Fai reaches out to hug him from the side. It’s awkward with the face shield, but whatever. ]

There are sides of me you haven’t seen either.

[selfconcept]

Of course.

[ There are many facets of a person, so he doesn't deny it. ]

Like—

[ He ends up coughing because sawdust... ]

[partymagician]

[ Ugh. Now Hien is coughing in his face…

Fai pulls away. ]

Like what?

[selfconcept]

Like—

[ He just keeps coughing aka this is my way to censor his lewd shit instead of getting his face hit with snowballs. ]

I need water.

[partymagician]

[ He will never ever look cool in front of Fai. ]

Well, that sounds like a you problem.

[ Fai has water in his backpack though, so Hien is free to tear into to. ]

[selfconcept]

You rude boy.

[ He gets water out of his own bag. It's fine... he drinks a lot and fans away whatever is left in the air with his hand. ]

[partymagician]

[ That just makes him laugh as he watches Hien drink. ]

Thirsty, aren’t you?

[selfconcept]

[ ???

Hien raises an eyebrow after lowering the bottle. ]

Yeah?

[partymagician]

[ Fai laugh, deciding that he’s not going to expand on that. Then he all but lunges at Hien, peppering kisses all over his face. ]

You’re such a good friend to Phantom.

[selfconcept]

... Yeah, I guess.

[ It's been a long time since he heard that he was good for anyone, so there's a bit of hesitance. ]

Stop kissing me. My face is dirty...

[partymagician]

Heh…

[ He gives Hien one last kiss on the nose. ]

This is just what you have to look forward to if you’re serious about marriage.

[ Have any regrets yet? ]

[selfconcept]

You kissing my face covered with dirt, maybe sawdust, with the paint smell?

[ Please. ]

[partymagician]

[ He laughs, kissing Hien again on the cheek. ]

Yep.
