[ suddenly, on your pokégear screen... there is just one question of vital importance: ]

Hello. I hope you don't mind answering a bit of a question for me.

What do you think of maid outfits? If it helps, you can give me a ranking from 1-10. One being the worst, of course.


[ those looking for judith might find her at the pokécenter, sitting close to the window and sipping on a hot drink. there's a wailmer rolling around at her heels. she's petting it occasionally, flipping through an article of... outfits. feel free to talk to her. ]

[ and of course he doesn't disappoint her. she walks carefully on the ledge to find a way to get to the second one, tossing an interested glance in ieyasu's direction. ]

Does your world have buildings like this one? [ it isn't like anything she's seen before in terms of design. ]

[he follows after shortly, back to his little quiet goal of making sure that Judith doesn't fall.

but at the question he smiles]


Yes! Similar in structure and the way it was built. It's a lot more familiar than those strange floors and lighted ceilings in town.

Your home sounds very beautiful. [ truth be told, judith did like the design of the sprout tower more than the design of the building in town. higher up, less... modern-looking. everything had a tendency to get less and less visually appealing as they got more advanced.

oh, look, there is a little bit of footing they could use to get to the next ledge... time to try that out. ]

Well... when it's not being affected by war?

It's beauty is unrivaled, if I may say so.

[a bit of a chuckle, coupled with a goofy grin. He loves his home and everything and everyone in it.

But as that footing becomes clear... well, he still waits for Judith to have the first try at it. He's set to catch her if need be.]

I wouldn't mind seeing it someday.

[ oh, war. always ruining things. she says this without facing him, and right after opts to try out that footing. she leaps up and catches her foot there, using it as a bit of a midpoint to try to get to the next ledge.

. . . this is harder than it should be. ]

I'd love to show it to you!

[and as she does that, he blinks. and tentatively calling up-]

Are you alright, Judith?

[ she pauses mid-reach to look down towards him and nod. with a big, big push she is going to leap up towards the next ledge.

this somehow works! except she's only managed to grab onto its edge and hasn't actually climbed up yet, but she's not exactly panicking. ]

[... well guess who is?

Though admittedly he's not saying anything for the moment, not seeking to break her concentration but best get up there soon Judith or else he's going to successfully have a heart attack from concern alone.]

[ still climb, climb, climbing, and somehow she finally pulls herself up onto the ledge. look, totally okay! ]

This one's a little more difficult.

[he breathes a major sigh of relief either way]

It would seem so...! But are you alright, Judith?

[and he looks genuinely concerned. His expression just reads 'no scrapes, no cuts? not tired?']

[identity profile] bewilding.livejournal.com 2011-11-07 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
I hope you won't be asking that every ledge we go up. [ not that she doesn't mind it, but she'll need to condition him to worry less, punch more. ] But I'm okay.

[... oh.]

... I didn't mean to be repetitive. Forgive me.

[he has a habit of worrying, he supposes.

but with her demonstration, he's quick to mimic her movements and well... compensate where she fell short. it's difficult - far more difficult than it should be in his opinion - but he manages to join her up shortly.

... but once he's up there, he kind of sighs heavily.]


I wonder if more training will make up for this...

[ well done, ieyasu. she's looking up as she acknowledges what he's talking about... looks like this kind of thing will be the norm for the next few levels. ]

It's harder than it should be, isn't it?

[a nod]

Not to sound too obnoxious by any means... but this should have taken a fraction of the time that it has.

It's not. I get it. [ like how she can't use her artes and throw lightning everywhere, they both can't climb this tower in .3 seconds. it makes her the slightest bit uncomfortable. ] We can't give up now though, can we?

action

[identity profile] ieyasachu.livejournal.com 2011-11-07 07:57 am (UTC)(link)
... well of course not. Practice should only make perfect, right?

[he's plastered on another grin at least, and this time he'll set out to look for a way to the next one to take the lead for the time being.]

[ go, ieyasu. go. judith'll also be looking, but less actively than him, probably. ]

It'll be a nice accomplishment.

Hah! Who else could say that they've done this?

[looking, looking- he's just an eager boy really]

[identity profile] bewilding.livejournal.com 2011-11-07 08:27 am (UTC)(link)
More than one, less than ten?

[ just a rough estimate. ]
