Caritas- Tuesday

Kitty was so relieved to be in a decent mood today, one that wasn't the same all day no matter what, and which felt rational.

Of course Tino was in a bitchy mood and kept slamming things around a little harder than necessary but he just seemed to be having a bad day.

Considering how she'd been on the day she'd run into Kitty last weekend, Rosa had considered just pretending nothing happened at all. For however long Kitty would let her get away with it, anyway, which she didn't suspect would be very long, so she decided to just come right in with it and get it out of the way.

"So," she said, taking her usual seat at the bar, "how's your house?"

"Still standing, and not invaded by polar bears," Kitty sighed. "Are you feeling more like you now?"
died8yearsago: (snarky talking)

"Polar bears?" asked Rosa, brows lifting. "I don't think we even got into that threat. But, yeah. Definitely back to the normal range," or lack thereof, "of surface emotions, and I think my face has finally recovered from all that smiling I did on Saturday. That whole thing was terrible; I say we never do it again."

Well, she actually didn't mind yesterday. She'd been wanting to get a new computer for a while now, anyway.

"Faye had me worried about polar bears attacking," she explained. "I'm okay not doing that again. Especially since I think I've done that before."

The pitfalls of being a long time resident.
died8yearsago: (amused confusion)

"Ugh," said Rosa, succinctly. "That Faye person probably now thinks I'm a person who actually enjoys and likes things. Which might bother me if I actually cared."

Mmmm, simple surface-level cynicism. Rosa had missed you so.

"And I would say kill me before it gets to a point where I can't even really remember what has or has not happened to me here before, but I think I might actually be at that point with some things."

"If it helps, some of it is yearly!"

Was that helpful?
died8yearsago: (definite eye roll)

[personal profile] died8yearsago 2021-03-16 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
The look on Rosa's face should make it plenty clear that, no, Kitty. That was not helpful, and may actually, in fact, be the opposite of helpful.

One of these days, maybe Rosa would be willing to embrace that she was likely following in Kitty's footsteps as a long timer, but that day might have to wait until the next time she was forced into being cheerful about everything thanks to a small gem in her stomach.

"Well it makes me feel better sometimes," Kitty told her, interpreting that look correctly. "Can I get you anything?"
died8yearsago: (totes slytherin)

[personal profile] died8yearsago 2021-03-16 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
"Just a beer," Rosa decided, letting that look linger just a moment longer, "...for now. We'll see if I need to switch to something stronger as this conversation continues."
throughaphase: (listening to every word)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2021-03-16 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
"Why, what horrible topic are you expecting be to touch on?" Kitty wondered, going to get the beer.
died8yearsago: (really? 2)

[personal profile] died8yearsago 2021-03-16 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm not going to tell you," said Rosa, "because even mentioning them means touching on them. Let's just leave it that you and I are on opposite sides of finding the word 'yearly' comforting."
throughaphase: (half face)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2021-03-16 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
"What if some of those things are good, though?" Kitty asked, setting the beer down.
died8yearsago: (ya think?)

[personal profile] died8yearsago 2021-03-16 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
"...like what?" asked Rosa, who was pretty sure she and Kitty would remain on opposite sides on what was considered good, but if, in her cynicism, she was forgetting about something legitimately good at that moment, Kitty would probably be the one to be able to pick it out.
throughaphase: (saying words)

"The kids are great," Kitty said immediately. "And I'm all for the guys turning into girls."

She hated the reverse, mind you.
died8yearsago: (yup that sounds about right)

[personal profile] died8yearsago 2021-03-16 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you for proving Rosa's point so succinctly, Kitty.

She immediately made a face.

"I knew you were going to bring up the kids," she groused. "And now I'll remind you of how I always leave on that weekend."

Which wasn't necessarily true. The first time, she showed up on the last night of it and didn't even know it was happening until she come home to two kids in her apartment.

But then she sighed, a conciliatory sort of sigh, with the hint of a smirk in the corner of her mouth.

"It was kind of cool being a dude, though, and I definitely appreciated the flip side of that, too. So that's one."
throughaphase: (satisfied)

"See, I knew there had to be something," Kitty said, and she would take that win when she could get it.
