[ ... ]

You really wanna see me do that?

[ Sinclair...? ]

[insinning]

Just a little.

[ Is he joking? Or is he serious now?]

[dissimulative]

[ Oria stares at Sinclair for a while. It really means what it's supposed to mean, doesn't it? But... ]

Why?

[ ??????????? ]

[insinning]

[Sinclair presses his face in the plushie to hide a smile. Maybe he shouldn't tease too much]

Because I want to see how cute it'd be.

[dissimulative]

But I'm not cute.

[ He'd rather be told that he's hot over cute, honestly............... but imagining Sinclair saying that is. lol. lmao. ]

[insinning]

[Oria's face is so funny]

You don't think so?

[dissimulative]

I'm not cute??

[ He'll accept it if it's like... from Beatrice. Not even his own sisters. ]

Stop that.

[insinning]

[This is a quieter part of the festival, filled more with trees than stalls. He had been looking for a cotton candy stall to share with Oria but]

Stop what?

[Innocence.]

[dissimulative]

Stop calling me cute! I don't want to be cute.

[ He huffs, giving Sinclair an exasperated look.

Cotton candy, take thee away... ]

[insinning]

But you do it to me all the time.

[Cute is a good thing? Sinclair's idea of cute might be warped though...He brightens when he spots the cotton candy vendor. Aha. He'll get this one and hold it out for Oria]

[dissimulative]

But—

[ —you're actually cute, is what Oria was about to say, but then he's distracted by cotton candy and takes it. He tries to nom at it, but then the wind blows a bit of that into his nose and he coughs. ]

Ugh...

[insinning]

[ Pfft. Sinclair leans over with a napkin to wipe the remnants of it off Oria's cheek]

Too much?

[dissimulative]

[ Oria stays still for the cleaning to go without a hitch. ]

Cotton candy is great, but I don't eat them through my nose.

[ Ick. Oria just takes a piece of it to eat instead of eating it directly from the bundle of cotton candy. ]

[insinning]

[ Sinclair pulls back when Oria's cheek is clean again, obscurely pleased in some way]

That would be an interesting talent to have.

[ But also, gross]

[dissimulative]

Not even I would eat like that!

[ Oria laughs. ]

Ear yours too, or it's gonna feel lonely.

[insinning]

Oh, I can't have that.

[ He had gotten distracted but he'll nibble on his cotton candy with much smaller bites]

[dissimulative]

[ Oria grabs some napkins in case it turns sticky after it makes contact with something. ]

Wanna play more games? I bet I can win a prize from every stall!

[ Even the hammer one.

But he's also open to going back to the dorms. ]

[insinning]

I think I have enough plushies.

[ He wont be greedy!! But also... Beatrice's words keep bouncing around in his head. Focus on the cotton candy...]

Let's take one last look around before we head back.

[Maybe there's some trinket stall. He thinks it'd be nice if they can both get something to remember today...]

[dissimulative]

Sure!

[ It must be tiring to keep carrying that huge fox plush... Oria takes Sinclair's hand so that they won't separate as they look around. There seems to be a small stall of various trinkets like cute figurines, paperweights, snow globes, cheap jewelry, and Keychain. ]

[insinning]

Oh, give me a sec...

[Sinclair glances over at the key chains, picking through them to find a matched pair somewhere. Hmm. Nothing 'cute' for Oria...but something pretty should be okay, right?]

[dissimulative]

[ He'll take it depending on what Sinclair picks out, so Oria stands there with the panda plush pillow, waiting for Sinclair to finish his perusal. ]

[insinning]

[There's two that he likes in particular. Both made out of resin, but one looks like sparks across the dark night like lightning, and the other looks like a burning fire. They're both the same shape, a simple pendant, clearly made to be a matching pair. He picks them out and holds out the lightning one for Oria]

Here.

[dissimulative]

[ Oria, having no idea that they're meant to be a pair: ]

For me?

[ He takes it, examining the resin. He hasn't seen effects like this before, so he decides to keep it. ]

It looks cool.

[ Sinclair has passed!! This wasn't a test? Don't worry about it. ]

[insinning]

[He relaxes a little, looking pleased. He had been worried for a second. He wont mention the matching part]

Mm. It's nice if we both have something from today, isn't it?

[dissimulative]

Yeah. I think this would go well with a lot of my shirts too.

[ Oria looks like he appreciates the choice, smiling over at Sinclair. Of course, it's not just fashion that he's thankful for, but he can keep that in. ]

Thanks!
