[He continues on his own side and it looks... Maybe?? A bird??? He thinks that's the tail...or is that the head? There is definitely something of a curved neck...

But at her words he'll look up and over to her.]

Sounds like your "something" has developed in an interesting manner. Should I come over and see?

[garudas]

[She gives it one more blow to test, and as she slowly figures out what it is she's looking at...]

N-no!

[She turns around and immediately hides it from his view. Though there is no hiding the question or the panic in her expression.]

Just finish yours.

[ramuhs]

[....Oh? Well now she just made him more interested.]

Really? Not even a peek?

[He's actually stepping a way to try and take a step or two closer to her—]

[garudas]

[And she's stepping away from him.]

No, I believe this one is a failure. I am simply going to throw it out.

[Shoo!!!]

[ramuhs]

Ach, don't throw it out yet! Just use it more for practice.

[And he still wants to see, so teasing her a bit by trying to lean to the other side to look past her—]

[garudas]

[She is too focused on trying to hide it from him that she doesn't notice that he's come up right behind her, so he does finally catch a glimpse of it. The lightning bolt with a face, and what she can only assume is a cigar sticking out of its "mouth" that is turned up into a smug grin.

And it's all started to glaze over in different colours, as if it wasn't obvious enough already...]

[ramuhs]

[As soon as he catches that glimpse—]

Well—that's certainly unexpected.

[ALL RIGHT MIGHT NOT BE THE BEST THING TO SAY AT FIRST but it's quite...surprising!?]

[garudas]

[His presence behind her startles her that she nearly drops it to the ground, fumbling with it with an almost uncharacteristic clumsiness, provoked by this flustered mess that she has become because what? What?]

Cidolfus! I said do not... I don't know what this is.

[ramuhs]

...Is that a lightning bolt with a cigar in its mouth...?

[Just rubbing his chin in contemplation as he peers closer, his head tilting this way and that.]

[garudas]

[It is a very sad looking lightning bolt with a cigar. Very, very sad with its crooked face and droopy edges.]

I swear this is not what I had in mind!

[That is to say that yes, yes it is.]

[ramuhs]

[Staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaring.

Before he...can't help but laugh.]

Is that what you think of me?

[He's trying to mimic the crooked smirk but is having difficulty because he's also laughing.]

[garudas]

[She looks over her shoulder at him with a deep scowl when he laughs, and even deeper when she catches that look on his face.]

No! Though at the moment, I suppose this glass lightning bolt looks handsomer than you—what is that face you are trying to make?

[ramuhs]

I don't bloody know.

[Said between laughs as he gives up and shakes his head.]

Still, it's proof of concept.

[Even if said proof is. Yeah.]

[garudas]

[She holds the glass close, trying to hide it from him still.]

And what of yours? Let me see it, if you are going to laugh like that!

[ramuhs]

Sorry, sorry—

[He really is, but can she blame him!!

But with far less shame, he will grandly gesture to his side.]

Behold! My very beautiful, er... Well, I think it might be a duck.

[It certainly, uh. Has the bird-like head and bill. And a neck. And plump body and maybe legs???]

[garudas]

[She sets her... lightning bolt Cid down on the workstation and looks over his.

...

...]

That looks like a goose.

[THE VERY ANIMAL SHE SAID NOT TO THINK OF HER AS???]

[ramuhs]

What, no it's not. It's clearly a duck!

[garudas]

No, look at its neck!

[She gestures at it with a dramatic wave of her hand.]

That is a goose's neck! Not that a duck is much better because what exactly is that supposed to signify?

[ramuhs]

What, so it's a little crooked. But it's not as long as a goose's neck. Besides, have you ever seen a goose so nice and round like this?

[Yes, strangely, the back of the "duck" is nice and plump—]

[garudas]

[Her eyes flick from him to its back, and if her expression does not already speak volumes—]

Cidolfus! I am not that round!

[Her hands quickly feel around her hips.]

[ramuhs]

[He's trying very hard not to laugh.




BUT HER HANDS GOING TO HER HIPS DON'T HELP.]

What, it's not that round. I'd say it's quite...ample...

[Oh he's being horrible right now and he knows it. But he also quite likes her hips—]

[garudas]

[He is being terrible!!!

And she is going to try and snatch that duck away from him.]

You know that calling a woman's hips, even in duck form, ample is not any better, yes?

[She doesn't even know why she's so offended. IT'S A GLASS DUCK. Well, it's the principle!!]

[ramuhs]

What, it's a compliment! You know how much I favor your hips.

[Just a playful smirk as his eyes flick down to them before stepping closer to her again.]

What about shapely?

[garudas]

Shapely.

[Still terrible, but... less bad!!!

She just glares at him, an immovable wall as he steps closer.]

This would not happen to have anything to do with the assumption those whales had, would it?

[ramuhs]

Of course not.

[...

But then there's a small pause as his head cants just slightly, enough to make it clear that a thought has occurred to him.]

At least, I don't believe so...
