"C'mon, Imma! Hurry upppppppppp!"
I scowled at the door to my room (behind which lurked a Sein), and resumed stuffing my legs into a comfy pair of shorts. "I'm hurrying! I'm hurrying! Just give me a few more minutes!"Why didn't she give me any warning? I mean, Cinque let me know when we were leaving the day before, but Sein seemed to think that popping in, saying 'Time to go!', and dragging me through the floor was just fine. What made her think that was a good idea?!
"If you're having a problem in there, maybe I should come in and help~," the horror outside the sang, the door distorting as she applied Deep Diver to it. A hand, pointer finger extended, surfaced, the tiny camera in her finger focusing with a mechanical whirr... only to be met by an unfocused wall of blue light.
"YIPE!" The arm retreated back into the door, freeing me up to slip on a pair of- well, not exactly tennis shoes, but the best approximation I'd found. "That stung! Meanie!"
That's an impressively audible pout. "So's trying to peep on me," I retorted, as dryly as I could manage. While she processed that, I quickly grabbed my shirt (returning Malleus to storage mode as I picked it up), slid it on, and grabbed my sun-visor. Now dressed, I oh-so-carefully snuck my way over to the door, and stopped right at it. If I know Sein, she should be just about to....
"What? NO! I wasn't trying to-"
So predictable. I smacked the door control, revealing a red-faced Sein right outside of it. "Then why did you stick your camera into my room... after I told you I needed to change clothes?"
She let out an "Eep!" of surprise, and backed away from the door. "I wasn't trying to peep on you, Imma! I just wanted to see how close you were to being ready!"
I just stared at her. Did you even think about what you were doing?After a couple of seconds, Sein scratched the back of her head with one hand, laughing ruefully. Thought so. "Eheheh... maybe I didn't think that idea through."
I mock-scowled at her, hamming it up as best I could. "You most certainly did not!"
Sein took one look at my scowly face, and immediately cracked up laughing. "...sorry... Your face!... I can't-" She doubled over, slowly sinking down to the floor, laughing all the way down. Naturally, this had me scowling even harder- stop making fun of me!- which... wasn't exactly the most helpful thing I could've done.
It took her thirty seconds to calm down... and then she broke out giggling again as soon as she saw my face.
