[ with the first round of voting wrapped up and the crowd dispersed to their own little corners of the commune, kai has once again found himself in search of company. his fault for being the new kid on the block, one who has more enemies than friends right now — just the way he likes it.
but maybe he could use a friendlier face. or at least a prettier one, before the night catches up to them all.
plopping down unceremoniously across from her (wherever she may be seated in the great outdoors of the commune), kai holds up his left hand in a playful little wave. ] Hi Tricky~ [ almost affectionate in greeting as he smiles a curious smile her way. ] What are you doing out here all by yourself?
[yeko lounges, and she's a very good lounger, laying down and propped by her elbows. she hears kai's footsteps and immediately straightens herself to a seated position, tilting her head in his direction.]
Enjoying the peace and quiet.
[which is now over! but she shrugs and pats the spot beside her.]
Why are you calling me 'Tricky', Boo? I'm sure you know my name by now.
What's wrong with Tricky? It's a cute nickname for you.
[ it was what he met her as anyway. ]
You can keep calling me Boo too, if you want. [ it makes no difference to him. ] But I'll have to warn you, some people use that as a term of endearment [ doesn't really fit his style. ] and I don't think our relationship has evolved up to that point yet.
[ he would sit next to her, really; but it's too close, isn't it? besides, they can look at each other better when they're sitting face-to-face. ]
So, how're you enjoying the game so far? From a scale of 1 to 10, how fun would you rate it?
[she only responds with an exaggerated roll of her eyes, waving the idea away, but not denying the attractiveness of the nickname for herself.]
They do? [a scrunch of her nose, the corner of her lips tugging down.] Never mind. I'll call you Kai.
[she tugs at a few grass blades, head nodding from side to side to indicate indifference.]
Fun scale? I like talking to people [and manipulating them], so the scale lands around a 10. But there's more than one scale. There's chaos and betrayal, which I enjoy, too. Being new is good for spying, don't you think?
Sure, good for reading comprehension too. [ he has never spent this much time on his phone like... ever. don't people talk face-to-face anymore? ] Have you learned anything interesting from all of your spying?
