Ade turned to face Amadeus as the smoke crept into the room, surprised to see a new bottle at the ready."You'll have to throw these, I'm more of a guns person."
"I'm more of a bottle person," She responded with a smile. She outstretched her arm, grabbing the bottle and awkwardly stroking his hand in the process.
Her smile remained strong, although she had to make an effort to suppress her blush.
Why did she even care? She usually loved intensifying the awkwardness.
Shaking the thought away, she gripped the bottle by the neck and lobbed it towards the window. She wasn't nearly as inexplicably nervous this time around. It flew through the opening quickly, clearing more distance before erupting into a cataclysm of flames."Now that's-"
Lust. That's definitely lust.
No it wasn't.
It was just another faulty reading.
Yes it was.
There's no such thing as a "faulty reading".
He was into her. She knew it. She hereby casts her vote.
Or maybe he has a thing for the bottle.
Screw that bottle.
No, screw her ill-conceived notions. She's misread emotions before.
But this was different. She wasn't being fooled.
Yes she was
No.
Yeah.
Shut up.
Okay.
She continued to quarrel with herself, paying little mind to the tortured Drakons outside."Yeah, they're asking for this. More explosions and disapproval coming right up!"
He seemed more collected, her doubt increasing with every passing second.
She's being dumb.
No, she's being a good person and not clouting him with her theories.
Ohmygodshutup he's giving you a bomb.
She did her best to compose herself, taking his gift in one quick snatch."We could probably just walk up to that door and chuck them out at this rate. But I like this better. More skill involved."
"Yeah. I like it over here, too."
No don't talk throw.
"It's cooler over here."
No, Ade, your lack of coolness it making it worse. Stop before I kill myself.
"In more than one way. Heh."
Put your goddamn puns back in the garbage where they belong.
The bottle whizzed out the window, the land below lighting ablaze. Many of the mistlings fled from the scene. Only a few stubborn, rage-induced others remained.
