phoenix

daughter of the sun and moon, known for all the trouble she gets herself and others into. capable of magnifying the intense emotions of others, many have fought over her, unsuccessfully resisted her charms, and paid the price for her whims. mischievous, unforgiving, tempestuous and always looking for something to kill her boredom, which seems constant unless she's busy messing someone around.

You called me kitten.

[...]

Couldn't be prouder of you, Fifi.

[fervently]

[ ... FOR FUCK'S SAKE WHY DOESN'T ANYTHING BOTHER YOU besides a slight widening of Phoenix's eyes, she does not give away how absolutely livid she is by this ]

Well, I don't like to disappoint. [ she smiles, sweetly ] I've certainly had you practically purring at my feet before, after all.

[cardinalyellow]

[SORT OF WHAT HAPPENS WHEN FOUR TEMPERAMENTAL AND DEPRESSED ENTITIES ARE COUNTING ON YOU TO BE THEIR CHILLAXED GUIDE. SORRY PHOENIX.]

Could be doing a lot more than that if you weren't so determined to pretend you didn't want it.

[Eyebrow: arched.]

[fervently]

[ YOU DRIVE HER MAAAAAD
TBH IT'S PROBABLY WHY SHE LIKES YOU SO MUCH ]

Yes, well, you get on my nerves when you act all smug like that.

[ :| ]

[cardinalyellow]

'Course I act smug! [He can't help but smile again.] It's an accomplishment every time.

[fervently]

[ time for another shove, albeit this time entirely more half-hearted in nature ]

It wouldn't be if you acted decently from time to time.

[cardinalyellow]

Mhm. [He'd love to know what she would call decent.] Take you out on a date, kiss you under the stars?

[fervently]

[ oh shut up ]

A date? [ she genuinely crinkles her nose up, frowning intently ] You're just being silly on purpose now.

[cardinalyellow]

Yes I am! [ALWAYS.] And you're still being difficult.

[fervently]

I am, yes.

[ ALWAYS. she fixes him with a challenging stare; come on then, what're you going to do about it? ]

[cardinalyellow]

[BOTH BROWS: ARCHED. And tell you what -- he's going to roll on his back and pull her along so her upper half is pretty much on top of him.

Hi.]

[fervently]

If ever I doubted that you wanted it just as much as I did...

[ her tone is dry, but bright with subdued amusement (which is an improvement, to say the least), though her words are her only general response to the movement. still being difficult, even if her manner is far more agreeable now. ]

[cardinalyellow]

Now that would be silly.

[Smiling. Guess who's the challenger now.]

[fervently]

Given our collective behaviour today, kitten, I would say it's just a very silly day in general.

[cardinalyellow]

I wouldn't have it any other way. [Deliberate pause.] Fifi.

[fervently]

[ AND SMACKING A HAND OVER HIS MOUTH ]

You really better not keep that up, Tiger, or else it'll be the only thing you'll be keeping up today.

[ 8| 8| 8| ]

[cardinalyellow]

[He'd say something in return but

yep

He's just going to laugh under her precautionary measure.]

[fervently]

[ she arches both her brows, and for a moment it almost looks as though she might say something else...







oh, fuck it.

removing her hand, she shifts slightly and finally leans down to press a kiss to Gaspar's lips. ]

[cardinalyellow]

[Aw yeah. Needless to say someone like Gaspar knows how to make it worthwhile, even if it is just a kiss. Something is slightly different about the way he smiles up at her after it's done -- the tone remains very much the same, however.]

An accomplishment every time.

[fervently]

[ Phoenix rolls her eyes, but she doesn't try to move away, settling herself more comfortably on Gaspar's chest, drawing a slender finger across the line of his collar bone. Her tone has turned a little lighter and more conversational, more teasing. ]

I can't very well make it easy for you, you're lazy enough as it is.
