PART 1: PREPARATIONS by Kaede and Sensuha :: :: mean actions { } means thoughts ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Setting: The dorm room that Sayoko and Taya share. Early evening. Sayoko: ::opens the door:: Tadaima! Taya: ::in nylons, a skirt, a bra, with her hair up in a towel, cigarette hanging out of her mouth:: 'Kaeri... ::trying to decide what lipstick she wants to wear:: Sayoko: ::blinks, pushes glasses up her nose, tosses her backpack, full of books, on her bed:: Where you off to? Taya: I had an exam today. ::taps off cigarette ash:: So it's all owari so I'm goin' to hit a few dances before dawn. Sayoko: ::nods:: Have a good time. ::tosses her shoes at the foot of her bed, sits down:: Taya: ::takes down her hair, which is long and black with raspberry streaks in the front:: Yeah. ::stubs out her cigarette:: Sayoko: ...Can you keep those outside? They give me a headache.... Taya: We don't HAVE an outside. We got a window an' that's all. Sayoko: Outside the dorm building. Taya: But that takes too long to get outside... Sayoko: ::grumbles:: Takes longer for my headache to go away. ::opens up her backpack, and starts removing books:: Taya: ::opens the window, makes a few fanning motions:: Sayoko: Thank you. ::pulls out a notebook, labeled "Adv. Physics III", tosses it at the foot of the bed:: Taya: You just WANT to kill yourself, don'tcha. Sayoko: ::looks up:: Hmm? Taya: You're gonna kill yourself with that crap. Who needs to know how fast things roll down other things? Sayoko: A little ironic coming from a smoker. Taya: Bite me. ::trying to pick out a shirt:: Sayoko: ::makes a brief face, settles back on her bed:: Taya: ::rummaging through her closet for shoes, tosses a few over her shoulder:: *clunk* Oop. Sayoko: ::glances up briefly from a textbook she's leafing though:: Taya: ::still looking:: Where're my boots, yanno, the ones with the heels and they zip up the back? Sayoko: Under the bed. ::rummages in her backpack for highlighter:: *Your* bed. Taya: What're they doin' there?! ::rummagerummage:: Uso. Sayoko: You put them there when you came back at two the other night. Taya: Curfew's a bitch. I had to climb in through the laundry room window. Sayoko: Never a problem for me. ::starts highlighting important passages:: Taya: That's 'cause you never leave. ::puts on a red velvet tank top, shaking out her hair:: Sayoko: I leave. I go to class, and to study group. Taya: How exciting. ::plugs in a hairdryer and blasts her hair, bending at the waist and shaking her hair upside down:: Sayoko: What's so exciting that you do? Taya: Your little virgin ears'd fall off if I told ya. Sayoko: ::rolls her eyes:: As I figured. Taya: ^.~ ::still blasting her hair:: ::finishes with her hair, brushes it out:: Sayoko: ::continues to highlight her textbook:: Taya: ::brushes her teeth:: Sayoko: ..Why bother? Brushing your teeth, I mean. Taya: 'Cause I'm gonna be very close to a lot of hot guys. ^.~ It's nice to have my breath smell good. Sayoko: ::rolls her eyes:: ..Where are you going, anyway? Taya: ::puts on lipstick, then a whole bunch of eye make-up:: One of those underground dance clubs. Maybe more if I get bored. Sayoko: Mm. ::nods:: Have fun. Don't catch any diseases. Taya: Aren't you wonderfully morbid tonight. Sayoko: Everyone loves me. Taya: So that's why you're here studying instead of going out. Wakaru. Sayoko: ::glares:: I could get a date if I wanted to. Taya: If you *wanted* to. Sayoko: My point exactly. Taya: But Advanced Physics 3 is much more... exCITING than actual humans! ::mock shock:: Sayoko: Hey, that's a cool class. Taya: ::grabs her purse, shoving a half-empty pack of cigarettes in it:: It's gonna be a long night; try to leave a window open for me. I'll go up the damn fire escape if I have to. Feel free to throw some of the crap off my bed, I'll just crash. ::slips on her boots, zipping up the back:: Have fun with your rolling things at different angles and momentums and what-not. Sayoko: .....Wait up a second. Taya: Huh? Sayoko: (That angles and momentum crap is far gone). Just.. wait up a sec. I'll join you tonight. Taya: ... Okay. (You seriously think I care?) Sayoko: Do I need to change? (:-P) Taya: I would if I were you. D'you have contacts? Sayoko: Yeah, in my drawer. Why? Taya: Put 'em in. Sayoko: ::takes off her glasses, puts in her contacts, unties her hair:: .....Dress, I guess, hm? Taya: Yeah... Want me to do your make-up? Sayoko: ...No. Taya: -.- Want to borrow some of my shoes? Sayoko: ::goes and finds a dress to wear:: ....I suppose. Taya: ::puts a pair of REALLY uncomfortable-looking shoes on her bed:: Dooooouuuuzo! ^.^ Sayoko: ....No. Taya: ::pair of less-uncomfortable-looking shoes:: Douzo? Sayoko: .... Taya: ::another pair, probably the least-uncomfortable-looking shoes:: Sayoko: ...Okay. But just for tonight. ::puts them on:: Taya: 'Course. (I want those back.) Sayoko: (I wouldn't keep them.) Let's go. Taya: Ikimashou. It's almost dark, and that's when the fun begins! Sayoko: You're just lucky I don't have class tomorrow.... (owari part one)
