[Vriska's PCD is filming from the front lawn of Athel House! she doesn't exactly treat it with the utmost care, and so it just kind of got... tossed there when she was bored with it; she'd planned to retrieve it when she felt like using it again]

[Vriska can be seen exiting the house this fine morning (yes, trolls are nocturnal, but a) she's halfway adjusted to the sleep schedule of the rest of the city by now, and b) she's a kid, so staying up all day still strikes her as a cool and novel idea)-- and thanks to where she left her PCD last night, everyone is getting a great view of a big glop of rabbit guts falling off the roof and right onto her head]

[because, as it happens, the entire roof is covered with rabbit guts]

[Killuaaaaaaaa o9]

[OOC: Anyone that's told me here that they don't mind Vriska's typing quirk will be getting her hiding behind text. If you reply to this and don't mind text responses, please let me know via that link! ♥]

Haha, no kidding. I had enough of that with Eridan.

[capuletnomore]

That is one of the things I like about this city, for all its faults - I have no Count Paris dogging my steps, pressing a suit where it is not welcome. I am sorry you have been forced to deal with such a tiresome situation as well.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Maybe I should just go show up at Equius's hive and see what happens.

[capuletnomore]

Force the issue?

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

I have no idea what I'm going to say. Or do. I guess I'll just wing it!

[capuletnomore]

Take care. Romance of any sort is not something to be treated lightly. Treat your dealings with Equius carefully.

[But, focusing on romance is better than focusing on revenge, at least.]

I'm not stupid! I've read aaaaaaaall about how this stuff works.

[capuletnomore]

I would not ever think you stupid, Vriska. I had read much of romance in books, too. But much of what I had learned flew from my head when I found myself in love. To experience something is different to reading about it.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

How different can it be?

[capuletnomore]

That depends on the person.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Romance is so weird.

[capuletnomore]

[That makes her laugh.]

It can be, I think. But it can be wonderful and delightful as well.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Bluh.

[capuletnomore]

Mock all you like, but when the full feeling of red romance blooms within you, you will understand what I mean.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, you're so cheesy!

[capuletnomore]

[She smiles at that.]

As I said, mock me now, but wait and see. Time will prove me right in this. A woman in love knows such things.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Human romance is still pretty different, though.

[capuletnomore]

Perhaps, but not so different that the experiences cannot relate, I would hope. Your red romance sounds much like what I know of love.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

How old were you when you started dating people?

[capuletnomore]

[Dating? Such a modern concept.]

I was sixteen when Father allowed Count Paris to begin courting me, and a fortnight shy of seventeen when I met Romeo.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Holy shit, that's old.

[capuletnomore]

[She giggles at that, too.]

You and Hawke have similar ideas where age for courtship is concerned. How old are trolls when courtship begins?

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

There's no set time! People start getting urges when they're about my age, though.

[capuletnomore]

Urges?

[That makes her blush, because she's only recently learned about those sorts of things.]

That...that sort of thing factors not into an arranged courtship at home. Though thirteen or fourteen is when many of the cousins began whispering of such things when Nanny was not paying close attention.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Woah, not those kinds of urges. Those won't come for a while!
