Wellspring Arms & Meditation Center

[the_merriest]

Paintball, Rikku had discovered, was just as much fun when you weren't actually playing as when you were. She'd have to thank Dojima for the brilliant secret-weapon idea.

The Wellspring Arms and Meditation Center was very open. And decidedly chipper.

Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

She's here. She's bouncing around.

Re: Talk to Rikku

Romeo seemed to be in a good mood as he wandered into the shop. "Yo, Dave. Hi," was his greeting for Rikku.

He felt like teasing her, okay?

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"Hi!" Rikku giggled. "If I'm Dave, you should be Steve. Dave 'n' Steve. We oughta go get beer and talk about wimmin."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[withoutverona]

Romeo made a face. "Do I really look like a Steve?" he had to ask.

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"Not really," she said, bouncing on her toes. "It just seemed like it went well with Dave. I freaked out Reno, he had no idea who I was. Oh! I still have your clothes! I forgot to give them back and I owe you. Huge."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[withoutverona]

"Are we discussing your attributes as a male again?" Romeo asked skeptically. "And freaked out Reno in a good way, or a bad way?"

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"I promise we aren't," she giggled. "And I showed up at his room pretending to be Dave and hitting on him like crazy. You should have seen his face."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[withoutverona]

"I should say," Romeo said, trying to imagine that. "And he didn't hit you?"

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"No, I let him in on it before it went too far," she said solemnly. "No fun getting punched in the teeth."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[withoutverona]

"None at all," Romeo said, equally solemn. "So you two have patched things up?"

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"I'm ... not sure," she said, chewing her lower lip. "We're ... better-ish? I mean. It's not, hey, everything's just the way it was. But we talked, and yelled, and we're sort of ... sorting it out? You know?"

Re: Talk to Rikku

[withoutverona]

Romeo did not squeal and bounce at this bit of news, but he looked as though both were in his heart. "Of course everything isn't the way it was," he told her. "But I'm glad to hear you're sorting it out. And that he was okay with being hit on by Dave."

Reno showed up with a grin on his face, his wardrobe slightly different from the norm (because the norm was very brightly colored, courtesy of a certain someone's paint balloons). On one arm, he was also wearing a certain birthday present, and in his hand, there was a bag of cookies that he'd picked up on the way. And he was grinning.

"You're such a freakin' ninja, you know that?"

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"You ... where did you get that?" Rikku laughed.

The t-shirt. The armband, she knew about.

"And I reserve the right to steal your wallet and use the information in devious ways. You weren't even gonna tell me? I had to double-check and make sure it wasn't wrong."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[raspberryturk]

Reno grinned and gave a shrug.

"The internet's a freakin' awesome place," he informed her. "And I wasn't gonna really tell anyone. 'S just another day, zoto. Whatever."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"I didn't tell anybody," she said. "But the rest of the posse found out. I think it was on radio. You, uh."

She blushed to see he was wearing it. "Did I do it right? The materia slots?"

Re: Talk to Rikku

[raspberryturk]

"They look right to me," Reno said with a grin and a thumbs-up. "I'm gonna have to pick up somethin' special to slip in there, I'm thinkin."

He paused and ran a hand through his hair sheepishly. "I guess I should'a known that Radio would have figured it out, zoto."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"Me leaving you a gift didn't help, I think," she grinned. "I, uh. If you wanted it to do something else? I could make you another set. I didn't know ... I wanted it to be a surprise."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[raspberryturk]

"You kidding? This is perfect." He tapped at the armband with one finger, then stuck out his tongue for a moment. "I think you know me too damn well. Lets me do my own thing, and then does just enough to let me bail my ass outta deep shit if I get into it, yo. I approve."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"Kinda what it was supposed to be," she laughed. "Not gonna stop you from getting your butt kicked, 'cause you're so fond of it and all, unless you're really doing bad and need a little boost. I could've put Auto-Protect on it, but ... I figured you'd think that was no fun."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[raspberryturk]

The "pffth" sound that Reno made could possibly be construed as a sort of agreement to that statement.

"I like my limit breaks," he agreed with a shrug of his shoulders. "S' why I go out there with Fury on. Gettin' my butt kicked's what it takes to get there, yo."

He grinned. See, he was mostly joking.

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

Rikku shrugged. "Auron did more damage when he got hurt. None of us understood it, most people are the other way around, you know? Maybe he just got ticked. I dunno. He'd take hits for other people just to be all protective anyway and then Hulk out."
