27th Draw = Boys suck [Open Action]

[selphie_t]

[Well so far today, Selphie's been thrust into the middle of a rather tense and uncomfortable argument between two of the members of House 59 and to make things even better, you could cut the residing tension left behind like a hot knife through butter. It's enough to drive the girl out of the house and into the rainfall. At least if she's outside, she's free for a little bit. So instead of moping about what's happened indoors, Selphie's taking to wandering through the town, without a raincoat on.

And it doesn't help that a certain somebody who shall remain nameless probably needs a good butt kicking but she'll just walk that off and stomp through every single puddle she can find. She'll wind up somewhere eventually, she's just not sure where. Perhaps Good Spirits? Maybe a friendly face of someone who's not acting weird will be there.

She makes her way towards the local watering hole even though she's not in a drinking mood. Here's hoping they have hot chocolate because Selphie's a little bit on the soaked side. :(]

[But then he lets it go and they get rained on, so much for that.] Want to take a short trip up river?

You're wrong!

[It's a violent reaction, but it's the violence of absolute truth. He believes, with all of his heart, that things didn't go that way.]

[action]

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Now she knows that he's been affected by whatever's been happening too. She let's his violent outburst roll off her shoulders.]

Squall, you have to listen to me. I think that this is some kinda experiment and I know that you don't believe me but we really did win the war. We saved the world.

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Wha -- [Selphie gets a facefull of big raindrops before she's casting a pouting glance at Sokka before the prospects of going upriver are brought up.]

Let's go.

[He shakes his head, and the anger fades into weariness. Bone-deep weariness, the weariness of someone who has nothing left to fight for but fights anyway because it's all he knows.]

We didn't win. We lost.

[markofthewise]

[Once they're at the river, Sokka will bend some water from the water... into a frozen board suitable for surfing.]

You'll be wanting to hold on.

... you're going to catch a cold like this, you know. [ Said with a little bit of amusement. Kids and their whims. ]

Not that I can't understand celebrating rain as it should be.

[action]

[millennialism.livejournal.com]

Eh? Selphie?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Well she's technically stomping in the puddles to vent some anger without taking it out on other people and she doesn't really care if she catches a cold or not just as long as everybody around just stops so freaking weird!]

Well... I was bored. [And avoiding certain people who are acting weird but she doesn't say that.]

[Selphie grabs Allen's hand and pulls herself up only to notice that something seems a bit off.]

Hm? Allen, is that you?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Well that's definitely exciting! But is it a wise idea to put a klutz on a surf board?]

Okay!

[idkmybffroy.livejournal.com]

[ Ah. He was unaware of that :|a Contemplating, contemplating. ]

Would you like to be bored indoors somewhere?

[action]

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[If this is how Squall would've turned out if they'd in fact lost the war then Selphie wants no part of that future. Selphie just shakes her head sadly. She knows the truth about what really happened. She opts for a change in subject.]

Were you lost in the forest for long?

[action]

[outwalks.livejournal.com]

Yes. . .

Sorry—I must not have been watching where I was headed as closely as I thought.

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[This one just needs to spill the beans to somebody who isn't affected by this whole mess.]

Is there hot cocoa involved?

[action]

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Selphie wipes off as much of the mud on her clothes as she can but that's another outfit for the wash for sure!]

It's okay.

[idkmybffroy.livejournal.com]

We can certainly hope so.

[ He can share his umbrella while he's at it, right? ]

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Well at least with an umbrella to stand under, Selphie won't get any wetter?]

Shall we then?

[idkmybffroy.livejournal.com]

Excellent! [ Come, my young ward! To the warmth of the dry indoo- ]

Unless you'd like to change first?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Changing first might be a good idea but Selphie doesn't feel like heading back to the Angst House right now.]

I'm okay. [One of these days Hughes is really going to have to call her bluff.]

[action]

[millennialism.livejournal.com]

Are you all right?

[action]

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

Because I would hate to break your fingers if you didn't.

[markofthewise]

[He slides onto the ice board and in the water. Thanks to his waterbending, he's able to keep it level as if he was standing on land itself.]

Climb on, but be careful. It's slippery. [JUST LIKE HIM.]

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Placing a hand on Sokka's shoulder, Selphie climbs onto the board but not before she practically goes tumbling into the water.]

[action]

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Selphie's glare quite effectively changes into a death glare before her hand is balling into a fist. Her knee is aiming for the groin and her fist is going for the gut.]

Let. Me. GO!
