Officially Hating the Tower Now

[sacred_flamer]

Characters: Luke fon Fabre and EVERYONE
Setting: During the event; March 17th - 23rd.
Summary: Luke around the Tower for the event. Just... see below how many tables he'll be flipping by the end of this.
Warnings: Whining, whining, whining, whining, whining...

Spring: Dorm Room 3-14
[Thanks to the rains, Luke gets woken up early on the first "spring" day. He sat up, completely and utterly confused... and then he spotted the massive puddle his dorm room became. His first thought, of course, was wondering what the hell happened. His second... was oh dammit his things! Granted, he didn't have much, but he could already see that water was soaking into his chest, and...]

My crane!

[He fumbled over to the trunk, tearing it open to get to his things. The broken sword he didn't care much about, but the paper crane? The one that Yu gave to him? Like hell he was going to let that get ruined!]

G-guys! Does anyone have anything water proof!? QUICK!

~.oOOo.~

Summer: Anywhere in the Tower
Hooooooot...

[Luke is essentially a zombie the higher the temperature gets. Some days, he's even forgoing putting on his beloved jacket; no matter what he does with it, it's just going to make him hot, and going around in just his belly shirt and baggy pants is preferable to more hot.]

[And let's not even talk about what the humidity is doing to his lovely long hair, okay?]

[He wanted a shower... or a bath; a bath surrounded by awesome soaps and perfumes and ugh; he was almost wanted to be back at the manor right now.]

...wonder if I should cut my hair again...

[Amnon isn't looking much better, and the little cheagle is pretty much plastered on Luke's shoulder, whimpering.]

~.oOOo.~

Autumn: Meadow Floor
[Little kids love leaves.]

[Luke is definitely no different; instead of training today, he's rolling around and playing in the leaves. Hey, he's allowed, okay? Don't judge him; leaf angels are fun, okay?!]

[Amnon is there too, rolling around and jumping around, getting himself lost in the leaves more than a few times.]

~.oOOo.~

Winter: Anywhere in the Tower
[Tower of Ass, fuck you and the horse you road in on.]

[No, seriously; Luke is hating this Tower so much right now. It is cold, again. He woke up under a pile of snow. HIS COAT WAS FROZEN FOR LORELEI'S SAKE. Amnon was curled up under his shirt, not that it made much difference.]

D-dammit... n-need to find someone that can make a f-fire...

Comments

[sacred_flamer]

Hnn... I didn't think of that. Do you have anything to tie it back with?

[idol_support]

[She does, of course, but only back up in her dorm room, which would take forever to get to and then come back, and Luke might not even be here when she does and it's just too hot to bother with all that anyways, even if she could find him in five seconds flat with Kanzeon. So, next best option-]

Here, you can have one of mine.

[It takes her a second, because she has a pretty decent amount of hair herself, but soon she's offering the probably pink, lol hair-tie to Luke.

She'll just put her own hair up in a ponytail instead of the usual pigtails.]

[sacred_flamer]

[...Rise, don't you know pink clashes with red hair? Ah, not that Luke's complaining at the moment; complaining takes effort, and he's too hot to make that much of an effort.]

[He pulled his thick mop of hair back, tying it back as high on the back of his neck as seemed practical.]

Ahh... that's a little better...

[idol_support]

[HEY, it goes just fine with her reddish-brown hair! (v_v) ...But yeah it does clash pretty badly with yours, sorry Luke. It's good that Luke doesn't complain, because doing something like that in this heat would test the patience of a saint...which Rise is definitely not.

But it's not too hot for her to let out a little giggle that only gets half-hidden behind a hand, and her attention is clearly on his hair.]

[sacred_flamer]

[Luke raised an eyebrow.]

What...?

[idol_support]

You missed some, plus your hair's sticking up kinda funny on the side.

[Still smiling, she'll be slipping around behind him, reaching up to grab dat hair pull out the hair-tie.]

Here, let me do it.

[sacred_flamer]

I-I can--!

[Buuut... it's too late; she's already got her hands on his hair. Great; the urge to start fussing was churning in his gut almost immediately.]

I-it's fine!

[idol_support]

Don't worry so much! [Have another little giggle, Luke, this one decidedly impish. Because some harmless trolling teasing is fun in just about any kind of weather. XD] I'll be gentle~

[And as promised, she's being careful not to tug too hard as she takes his hair back down again.]

It'll just take a second, I promise!

[sacred_flamer]

Nnngh... just make it quick...

[He hated people touching his hair. It was okay for his mother to do it, but everyone else needed to keep their paws off!]

[idol_support]

Aww, what's wrong? Don't you think it's kinda nice to have someone else fix your hair sometimes?

[As a former idol who had it done constantly, Rise doesn't really get why it would be A Thing...still, she'll do her best to do as he says kinda, though it's a little more tangled than she would've expected, so she can't fix it as quickly as she had fixed her own.]

[sacred_flamer]

[Luke pouted stubbornly, refusing to answer, before...]

...I only let my mother do it. Helps her when she's not feeling well.

[idol_support]

[He might feel the movement of her hands pause for just a second, then she's back to carefully gathering up all that hair in a tail, smoothing down the bits that try to stick up and pulling them back as well.]

...Oh. Does...that happen a lot?

[He's never really talked about his parents much before, as far as she can remember...and it's a pretty nosy question, but she asks it anyway, albeit with an unusual, noticeable tentativeness.]

[sacred_flamer]

Mm... well, it depends on a lot of things.

[He didn't talk about his mother much because he missed her, and he didn't want to think that she was dead, that everyone was dead. It hurt too damn much.]

[idol_support]

[That...doesn't sound like he really wants to talk about this. At all. So she'll just let it go, since she doesn't HAVE to know or anything. Instead she just focuses on fixing his hair, and instead of just leaving it a long ponytail, she soon has it twisted up into a (purposefully not too girly) up-do.]

...There! This way it'll definitely stay off your neck. But man is your hair thick! I might have to be a little jealous now.

[sacred_flamer]

Eh, blame Asch.

[Seriously, his is just about as thick. In fact, he probably looks like a puff ball right about now. Or a pissed off peacock or something.]

[Wait, he always looks like that. Never mind.]

Thanks.

[idol_support]

No problem!

[Rise returns her attention to her own hair, making sure as best she can without a mirror that it's stayed in place, as she asks:]

So where are you headed? I'm off to see if there's any water still left in the pool. You could come too, if you want.

[sacred_flamer]

That... sounds like a fantastic idea.

[Because seriously, he's pretty sure asking Asch to cast Icicle Rain wouldn't get any of them anywhere.]

Oh... don't you need a bathing suit or something?

[idol_support]

[Oh, that line's just way too much of a temptation: Rise can't resist striking a pose that shows off her own bathing suit a little.]

I've already got that covered! But I think they keep some down there in case you don't have one of your own.

[And if not, oh well. He's a guy, so he can lose the shirt, and he's probably wearing some kind of underwear under those pants, so it should fine.]

[sacred_flamer]

Er... oh. Right.

[Thanks for drawing attention to this fact. Hi Rise's boobs; it's been awhile since he's seen you.]

All right; let's go then.
