towerofanimus | Hacking #09: Distractions

Characters: April and anyone else!
Setting: Floor 15, Floor 14, Floor 99 and Dorm Room 2-04 (Locked to Aleph).
Format: Brackets to start with, but I can match you!
Summary: After the events of the other week, April has decided that the best course of action is to distract herself as much as she possibly can with whatever she can.

[Floor 15]
[April tended to try to have something to work on when she's at the workshop, and today is no different. It's a bit awkward to try to work on things when one of her arms is still injured, but it hasn't stopped her before and it isn't going to stop her now. Plus, she's using her powers to help her move and bend metal anyway. And she seems to have a collection of things that she's working on, judging by the small collection of jars she has along with the random bits and pieces of metal and wire laying across the table she's working at, along with a few small lights and cds and attempts at making miniature wheels.

… Yeah, it's not really clear what she's making but at least she seems enthusiastic about it]

[Floor 14]
[Video games also tend to be a good distraction, at least to April anyway. Though her attempt at playing a racing game doesn't seem to be going well, judging how she keeps crashing the car to the point where she has to start the race over again. Which is just what happened now as she huffs and slumps in her beanbag chair slightly, pouting at the tv screen.]

D-dammit, this is really hard...

[Floor 99]
[She had never really explored this floor much before, so her restlessness eventually led to her looking around the caverns. While April did give herself a headache by examining the crystals too curiously, she does eventually decide to see what would happen if she used her electricity to reflect light through the crystals. And she is rather pleased her her results, judging by how she soon becomes focused on the little light show she managed to create along the cavern walls. And it is pretty to look at, if a bit blinding too thanks to how much twinkling is going on]

[Dorm Room 2-04. Locked to Aleph.]
[April had said a while ago that she would make a few things for Aleph, and today she's making good on the promise. Which is why she'll be knocking on his rooms door, a bag slung over her shoulder.]

Hey, Aleph, you there?

[The biggest cuties.]

Ah, y-you don't have to do that...

I want to. You can't stop me.

[She gives him a pout for a moment, but then she huffs with a smile.] O-okay, okay... But I won't argue if you tell me how I can make it up to you for what happened during the attack of the sky whale.

I don't think I'll tell you, then. I don't think you have to.

What, why? [Pooouuuuuut.]

Because I forgave and forgot a long time ago.

[She blinks up at him in surprise, before she cuddles close again.] ... Thank you. I really am incredibly lucky to be with you.

I'm just as lucky, though.

[And snuggling is wonderful.]

[Snuggling is the best.]

Though, can I ask you something?

Anything you want.

If I... asked you to pet my hair sometime, would you find that weird?

Not at all. It looks like it feels nice.

It really does!

... Ah, do you want me to try petting your hair?

Sure. [He takes off his visor for this.]

[And just going to reach up to pet his hair gently.]

[Purr. Purrrrr.]

[Pet, pet, pet.] Hehe, I guess you like it?

It really feels nice.

Yup. Do you want me to keep doing it?

Please do.

Okay, will do. [Petpetpet.] ... Though can you lean down a bit, please?

[He leans down a little.] Too tall?

Too tall. And... [She kisses him softly as she pets his hair, before pulling away slightly to give him a shy smile.] ... Ah, and I think it feels a bit nicer while you're being kissed.

What doesn't feel nicer when you're being kissed?

[Smooch~]

[The smooch is happily returned, and she changes the pets to gentle scritches in the scalp to see if that would get any reaction.]
