Spoiler for Anyone wants some catnip:
“Why are you here?” Kuroyoru broke the silence while indulging in her lollipop.
Worst’s brow lifted slightly, her lips skewed in one her trademark grins. “Misaka is pretty sure most of your dialog has been punctuated by question marks.”
“Because you’re not giving me straight answers?” Kuroyoru smirked with barely concealed irony.
In barely one second, Worst’s expression minimized from a grin to a bitter flat line. She stretched her back and arms and rolled her shoulders before reclining. With her head hanging and her brown locks following suit, she hummed, the sucker stick sticking out from between her wet lips, before she let out a prolonged sigh that expressed all of her mental aches.
“Misaka’s really”— Worst shrugged in uncharacteristic melancholy as if still searching for the right word—“bored.”
Kuroyoru almost swallowed her whole lollipop at the admission, and went on a coughing fit for a minute as sugary saliva had shot up through her nose somehow. As if to mock her, the television blared with applause. Handing Kuroyoru a pack of tissues while patting her back, Worst found a saliva-coated sucker on the floor which she promptly threw in the empty packaging.
“You’re going to live? Or do you a hairball stuck in there too?”
“How the hell are you bored?” Kuroyoru snapped as she coughed once more. She stared wide-eyed at the clone in the same way she would be staring at someone affirming that one plus one was equal to three. “Don’t you have some pranks to pull, that Number One to harass or something else? How can you, out of all people, be bored?”
It was difficult to grasp what Worst’s ruffled brow expressed. But Kuroyoru knew that there was more than boredom swirling in those dark ember orbs; on closer inspection they seemed tired and were slightly bloodshot around the edges. Had something happened? Combined with the fact that she barely knew her at all, that question didn’t help her answer her observation.
In the end, the clone didn’t have a straight answer. Instead, she forced Kuroyoru into a chinlock and dug her knuckle into the top of her head like a schoolyard bully. “Do I have to ask Nya-sensei about when Misaka’s allowed to be bored? Do you want a crash course on humility by yours truly?”
“Humility my ass! This is about my personal dignity you shithead!”
Worst’s fist pressed down hard. “Whaaat’s thaaat? You want Misaka to go fetch the cat extension parts?” A maniacal Cheshire grin formed on her face. “And you want a litter box too?! Oh my, Misaka didn’t know how committed you are to roleplaying!”
Some women just want to see the world nya~
I'm aiming for either a two-shot or three-shot (depends on if I skim some details/how much fluff I want in). Mostly humor/romance, although there's a bit of (melo)drama for the sake of having an intrigue.
I already have in mind that our little lovebirds here visit a biodome (dolphin and wild cats included), but I'm trying to think of something else that fits in.
Anybody has any ideas? I promise I'll make good use of them, then pretend I came up with them on my own
