and then tay finally stopped being lazy and made the rl post for steve's party.

[tenminutes]

{{ Who: Steve, Yuri, Ange, Battler, Makoto, Sheryl, Darcy, Buffy, and Rory
What: Potluck BBQ Party for Steve
When: It was on Sunday shush
Where: Yuri's world, the afterlife, near the stream-- a good distance from anything dangerous.
Warnings: Dear god there shouldn't be any?? }}

[ Hey everyone! Steve got his experiment and it succeeded and he isn't dead! So, as promised, here is the little get together for Steve and the friends that he managed to list before Yuri got tired of him slowly adding everyone he's ever met. It's really nothing special, but Yuri managed to obtain a barbeque, different drinks are set up on a table (oddly, all either bottled or canned-- water, coffee, juice boxes, and a 12-pack of Cola because she promised Steve she'd get Cola). Make sure you put whatever food you're bringing on the table too, it's a potluck!

Shortly before the date of the party, everyone should've gotten a private message that it was today, even if they didn't read Yuri's two posts mentioning it. ]

[ He glances at her, chewing this HORRIBLE HORRIBLE COOKIE and trying not to even react to it. Thank god he already looked upset and can hide icky taste-faces behind that.

Swallow. Oh god. That was painful. ;; Ange your cookies. ] ... [ pauses then sighs, looking at his feet. ] I don't really think it's my place to tell anyone. It was supposed to be a secret.

[denies]

[ Poor Steve.. she'd be so sorry if she knew how awful her cookies are but she doesn't.. ;; So instead she's just hoping he likes them and they might cheer him up or something like that!! ]

... It's fine. It's just.. well, you look pretty upset about it, you know. [ And that makes her worry - but she's too tsundere to say that as easily. ]

[doyoufondue]

[ Aww he will... pretend that was good. ;; ] ...Yeah. Just. I got lied to and it hurt so... -- I'm fine though.

[denies]

[ Thank you, Steve, you're a real friend.. ;; ]

... Lied to..? [ Wait, that happened just now--? He wasn't looking too upset earlier, but then again, she was sort of focusing on the wet shirt and everything then since it was so distracting and let'snotthinkofthatagain. ]

Hey, it's fine to just be upset if that happens. [ hypocrite, Ange.. ] I mean, even if I don't know what exactly is up, being lied to absolutely sucks.

[doyoufondue]

[ He nods, shifting his feet a little. ] It does.

[denies]

[ She's shoving the cookies plate towards him a little-- N-NO, ANGE, STOP--!! ]

Do you want another cookie? Maybe it'll cheer you up. I made them myself, you know.

[doyoufondue]

...Oh. No thank you. I don't really think I could eat anything else right now. [ too upset. ...yeah that's it. ]

[denies]

[ Well, it's a good thing he looks so upset she even accepts that as an excuse.. But then again, she's still worried. ]

... Is there anything I can do to help? I mean-- [ don't think too much of it?! not like she's worried?! why can't she even tsun!! so her voice just.. trails off.. ]

[doyoufondue]

I don't think so... [ Looking over at her ] Sorry it-- I'm fine. Really. It's nothing to worry about.

[denies]

I.. I'm not worrying.

[ huff-- okay, no, she can't really keep up the tsundere for everything act if he already knows, huh.. ]

... It's just.. you're my friend. So I don't want to see you look like that, that's all.

[doyoufondue]

[ Gives her a little look. Why insist she wasn't worrying? ] ...I didn't mean to come over here all upset like this. I'm sorry. It's.. I'm really fine. I just need to think about something else.

[denies]

[ welcome to the world of tsunderes, Steve. ]

That's why I said I want to help. I know it's not easy to get over something like that that easily, but.. [ And she can't even suggest to take a cookie since he said he can't eat them right now..!! ]

[doyoufondue]

I don't want to bother you with this... I'm being depressing. This-- [ shakes his head ]

You bake then?

[denies]

[ but she's usually the depressing one, but.. yeah, maybe it's just easier to talk about this if he can't vent about whatever's the matter with him, so she just focuses on that. ]

I usually don't. Only for the people on here, since I.. just felt grateful, like I had to do something back for all of them.

[doyoufondue]

That's nice of you. You didn't have to. I think everyone would know how grateful you are anyway, just by being around.

[denies]

No way, anyone can just be around.. It's not like it shows off any kind of gratefulness. I felt like I at least had to make some effort.

[doyoufondue]

You make effort...

[denies]

Yeah, but I'm not as outgoing as Yuri or Battler onii-chan, [ NO, ANGE, DON'T BRING THEM UP NOW.. ] and I'm not as nice as you, so it takes some extra effort for me. Like making cookies for everyone.

... Don't think it's something I do that regularly, though.

[doyoufondue]

[ He makes a face at that first part then shakes his head ] You're not as outgoing but the way you do things is nicer. You don't have to put in extra effort.

...Alright. I won't.

[denies]

[ sorry, Steve.. ;u; ]

... You really think so? But I can't match up to you at all in that sense.. [ since she can be sort of rude with her deadpan-- scratch the 'sort of'. ]

[doyoufondue]

[ ;u; that's okay you don't know ]

Match up? You're more guarded on the outside but that doesn't mean you don't match up in any of it. You'd put just as much care in something as I would, I think.

[denies]

[ one day she'll realise and look back on this and feel so awkward.. ]

N-.. no way, I'm sure a lot of people would say that sort of thing about you, but hardly about me.

[doyoufondue]

[ everything is awkward forever ]

But I said it. You don't believe me?

[denies]

[ .. oh no, don't say that, she can't tsun and say she doesn't believe him since that'd be like kicking a puppy.. ]

... Of course I believe you. So.. thanks, I guess.

[ okay, let's change the subject so she can stop feeling embarassed-- ] Feeling a little better yet?

[doyoufondue]

[ offers her a little smile for saying she believed that before he looked back at his feet ]

Little bit.
