Room 317- Tuesday morning

[notconflicted]

Sia had been trying to study. Normally she was very good at staying focused, too. It was just that today, anytime she started to get anywhere, she'd hear an impatient throat-clearing noise that seemed to be coming from the strange sprig of green... thing that had appeared on the ceiling today.

"Hem, hem," it said.

"In case it's escaped your notice, I'm ignoring you," Sia said, not even looking up from her notebook, though she did wonder how she got to the point where she would reply to talking plants on her ceiling and not react.

"I am not being unreasonable!" Sia insisted. "I never once showed any interest in you and was shot down for something I have no control over."

She was not being entirely reasonable, anyway.

... Yeah.

Atton's forehead crumpled up into extreme confusion as he attempted to make sense of that.

"So," he said slowly, "Why do you care?"

Re: ...NFB

"Because you're confusing," she stated simply. Sure, let's go with that.

"Right."

Not buying that one for a second, but what the hell would he do with it? Pushing might get him something he'd have to weasel out of.

"Well, then I'll remove my confusion from your room, your highness," he said, taking another step towards that do-- hey, hello, doorway.

"Fine." And they were back to that.

"How about a kiss goodbye!" And also that.

"How about you shut up before I really lose my temper and come back with my blaster," Atton snapped.

And then slammed the door as he left. As you do.
