13th Flight: [Action]

[skyborne_mage]

[Slapped to the door of the clothing store is a note.  It's not a very remarkable note, even if the text is a bit on the large side.  But it's a note on a door, so most people will probably stop to read it.

This is what they will see.]

Give the next person you see a big hug and kiss!

[And hiding in a nearby tree, watching the results of her little experiment, is one Arche Klaine.]

-Patchy turned several different shades of red, mumbling a "mukyu" sound to herself as she was embraced. Don't make eye contact, she kept repeating to herself, or else she'd do the same.-

[Aerith lets go as soon as the kiss lands--the girl's deep blush shows she's already very uncomfortable, there's no need to make things worse. She should probably explain herself.] There's a sign on the clothing shop, saying to hug and kiss the first person you see. And, well. I happened to see you. It must have been your cute hat.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

-Oh she was well aware of the sign. She too had seen it, hence the hiding of her face.-

Th-thank you... for the compliment on my hat, that is.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Is something wrong? [Tilting her head to get a better view of the other girl's face. ...so, uh. There might be a flash of Aerith in your peripheral vision soon. :|b]

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

-Crap. Crap crap crap crap. As soon as she caught sight of Aerith, her will crumbled and the cursed experiment took hold of her. She set her book down and let out a sigh. Might as well get it over with...

Slowly, and gently, she wrapped her arms about the other girl. And with pinched closed eyes, she placed a tiny kiss on the tip of Aerith's nose, which she had to crane her neck to reach.-

mukyu...

[Aerith stays still once she realizes what Patchouli's doing to make things simpler, and smiles after the kiss.]

Now we've both gotten it out of the way.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

...Yes, at lease...

-She's about ready to die of embarrassment, though. In fact, she's wobbling a bit.-

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

[--That doesn't look good. Aerith reaches out to steady her.] Are you tired? Come rest in the shade for a little bit. [And she is, indeed, guiding Patch over to a shaded patch of grass. It is a hot summer day--maybe she's overheated.]

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

-She's hardly in any position to resist, given any command she was given she was compelled to follow anyways. She does as she is guided to, sitting beneath the shade of the trees above. It was rather nice...-

You needn't be so delicate with me. I was just having some circulation trouble, is all...

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Sorry about that. I was worried you might faint...

A health condition?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Hmm... that's alright, I suppose.

I'm anemic, actually.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Can you get the vitamins you need here?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Ever since the clinic became aware of my condition... yes, they've insured that much.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

That's good. [Aerith's just relaxing on the grass a bit, stretching out.] This experiment really is strange, isn't it?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

...

I hate it.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

[Aerith frowns a little, looking up at the sky.] ...It is bad...even if no one uses it to hurt people on purpose, someone might cause an accident just by saying the wrong thing. It's already happened a few times.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Or force them into humiliating situations out of spite.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

The person who put up that sign should be praying they don't get caught. There must be quite a few upset by it.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

I've every intention of enacting swift and painful retribution.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

[...thaaaaat's a bit scary, Patch.]

It wasn't harmful, though...very careless.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

-She has no idea, orz. Poor thing is a ball of social fail.-

Do not presume to speak for me. It was quite harmful to me. The experience was horrid.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Then, how about we forget about that happening? It wasn't the best way to meet, anyway.

Hello. I'm Aerith.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

...

Patchouli Knowledge.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Patchouli...it's nice to meet you.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

...

I apologize for directing my frustration at you, Aerith.
