[ Action ] .062

[markofthebrave]

[So it's safe to say that this month has been more than a little crazy. But with nothing exploding in the past few days, she's finally had some time to take care of some basic etiquette. There is no postal system in Luceti, so Katara will be making some visits today. Namely, to all those who gave her a present who she doesn't live with, so we're looking at: Buffy, Jack, Trafalgar Law, Masaomi Kida, Nara Shikamaru, Harry Dresden, Vivi, Mia, Raine and anyone else I may have missed in my scan of the present table. Once she finds your living place, you will receive a handmade thank you card with pressed flowers from her garden inside. (Naturally, any of these deliveries may be handwaved, and if anyone in one of those apartment buildings/houses wants to wonder what she's doing there, feel free to say hello!)

But - hark! - sometime during her jaunt out and about town, Katara actually spots something in the clothing shop that catches her eye. A hat display! Right by the window! She heads inside (just for a moment or two, she swears) to start trying on what look to be several very silly hats. Feel free to catch her at this activity, but be warned! She may try and fit you with a hat as well.]

[Squriming. He squirms and then goes to put a hand on his face, rubbing it] Ah...?

[markofthebrave]

You fell asleep in the Clothing Shop.

[...]

I think Linda's still asleep.

[generalflirt]

...Yes, I think so too.

[looking dully down at her now, blearily. She's snooring too. He can't even stand without waking her. Hm. Back up to Katara]

Fancy seeing you here.

[markofthebrave]

[What, you say that like she never comes into the Clothing Shop.

...okay, she never goes into the Clothing Shop.

She gives him a small smile.]

Hey yourself.

[generalflirt]

What brings you to these parts?

[markofthebrave]

The new hat display.

[She admits it easily enough.]

And - [light dramatic pause] you snore.

[And with that, she starts to turn to go. Because you're trapped there with Linda on top of you, and she has hats to try on. Probably at an angle where you can't see. Bwahahahaha.]

[generalflirt]

Hah! Pass me some of those hats then.

[He can't get up, no. But he might as well have fun with her]

[markofthebrave]

Nope.

[Sorry, but not really. The tone she uses is deliberately light, slightly teasing.]

You might wake Linda.

[generalflirt]

Mean. What if I wanted to try some on?

[markofthebrave]

Then you should have thought about that before you fell asleep on the floor.

[She takes down a large hat and slips it on.]

[generalflirt]

[Behind the counter, he can't see well from this angle. He lens to try, but]

Maybe so, but I didn't plan on this.

[markofthebrave]

[This? Is the casual shrug of 'too bad.'

And you know what? It feels GREAT.

Deal with it, Masaomi. This is Katara not bending over backwards for you right now, with a bonus 'in your face guilt free' swag.

And you know what?

It feels GREAT!

...which means she'll probably feel guilty for it in about three minutes, but whatever. In the meantime, she's looking for a mirror to see this monstrosity of a hat.]

[generalflirt]

[He makes a light whine behind the counter. It's a light whine, but he also sounds amused. After the Riverside argument a while back and his intervention at the beach not going quite as much as he hoped in a positive light though idk if that's done yet /shrugs it feels good to do some neutral thing here]

[markofthebrave]

[NOPE! Ignore.jpg.

Katara decides this hat is too wide. She takes it off to try on this number instead.

And you know what? She even makes a slight "oooo"ing sound as she lifts it up, before she fits it on her head.

Yes, yes she does.]

[generalflirt]

[He pets and whispers to the sleeping Linda as he sits here, smiling as he listens to her] She's teasing me, isn't she?

[markofthebrave]

[Fortunately - or perhaps unfortunately - Katara can't hear him. And besides, she's busy trying to see all of this hat in this tiny mirror. She may have to walk to that full standing mirror more along his line of sight instead.

Hmmm...]

[markofthebrave]

[Katara waves as she approaches Raine's garden.]

Hi, Raine!

[markofthebrave]

[Katara giggles.]

I think it's a little bit backwards.

[Men should be eating fish, not the other way around!]

[markofthebrave]

[Heh.]

You think maybe we could start one?

[markofthebrave]

[Smirk.]

I do try to be considerate.

[markofthebrave]

[Uhhh. Well.]

I don't know if you knew, but the girls moved in with their father.

[So her son showed up. That was weird.]

[Action]

[markofthebrave]

But it doesn't seem like you'll enjoy what you're drinking very much.

[deathsdoctor]

No, I didn't know. It's good they're back with him and all together now.

[... this is getting very messy. But there is a silver lining. Having the girls out of House 56 gives Katara a little much needed breathing room.]

...

How's he taking it so far?

[wise_maiden]

[She lifts her head up at the voice, smiling.] Oh, hello Katara! How are you today?

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

I think I'd MORE than enjoy it.
