Outside the Dorms, Late Wednesday Night

Ranma is out walking Mizu with a bit of a smile, he's pretty sure no one's out so he starts out humming a bit to himself. Okay, so to say he's in a good mood is a bit of an understatement. He superhandwavily bought a new CD and he's quickly escalated to singing softly from it.

"This morning
I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with
And so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself
And never talk about it
And then I go and shout it
When you walked into the room..."

Mizu is loping along to this. Master is so happy! It's a nice change of pace.

What? OMG, Chad shows up? Who'd've thunk it?

En route back to the dorm after work and post-work beer, Chad was, of course, instantly drawn toward music, especially after he realized that the singing voice seemed a little familiar.

Yup. It was as he thought. He waited for a break in the song to approach with a wave and a greeting. "You're rather musical lately," he observed. He was glad for this; it meant that his CD had worked to its purpose.

"I think I love you" Ranma is interupted and blushes considerably, especially since he was on the line by coincidence. COINCIDENCE. "I-I didn't think anyone was around..."

Chad shrugged. "Usually, there isn't. I'm just getting back from work."

He paused a moment to give a wave to the puppy. "Hey, there, Mizu."

//Hi Chad!// Mizu hops over to Chad and looks with the puppy eyes of doom for the petting to start.

And, indeed, it does. Almost automatically, Chad's carefully crouching down to Mizu and starts scratching behind his ears. Especially because he's gone quite a while since he's had any cute-pet-petting time. So the scritching is particularly energetic today.

"I'm not, like, intruding or anything, am I?" he asked, looking up at Ranma as he pet Mizu.

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
Ranma looks a little surprised. "I spend most of my time alone with Mizu. It's not intruding." Way to say your pathetic without even trying...

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah? So you didn't have a very eventful day? No classes or nothing?" Chad turned his head back to Mizu, as if to concentrate on the petting while he wondered why the hell he felt the need to talk so much.

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
"Just Magic class. I don't... do very much. Just push ups and sit ups in my room." He's a little embarassed to admit it.

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
"Magic class?" Chad looked up with a touch of interest. He didn't know Ranma did magic. He wondered, briefly, if it was anything like the sort of magic Agnes had talked to him about, but he hoped not. Because he still didn't get what Agnes had talked to him about.

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:05 am (UTC)(link)
"We're still just learning principle stuff... I can't do any real magic." He smiles briefly.

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh." That was a little bit disappointing, but at least Chad didn't have to worry about any confusing explainations that might have followed. He considered asking about the principle stuff, but that was almost garaunteed to lead to confusing explainations, so he just left it. "I see."

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
"I was hoping to learn... I wonder if we will." He really just wants to light things on fire.

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:28 am (UTC)(link)
That's what they have matches for, Ranma.

"Seems...unfair to call a class a magic class, and then never get to learn any actual magic."

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:29 am (UTC)(link)
But he might break his nails!

"Well. Fandom's pretty tricky like that."

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
OMG, NOES!

"I guess." Because nothing about Chad's experiences here so far would lead to such a conclusion. It had been pretty normal so far. Then again, he wasn't taking anything as cool as magic. He was taking...Government. And freakin' history.

Although there was Science-with-an-exclamation-pont. That counted for something.

But him sitting there, petting Mizu and keeping inside of his head was probably making him seem pretty rude to Ranma. So, right. This conversation thing. He'll try to get back on that.

"Doing anything interesting tomorrow?"

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
"Nope. Just the sit ups. And pushs ups. And class. You?"

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:44 am (UTC)(link)
"Same. 'Cept not the sit ups and push ups. I think we might be doing something on the radio with the band, too, but I'm not sure. Haven't had a chance to check my email about it yet."

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
The slightly impressed and a little flattered arch of his eyebrow was well hidden by his hair. "Yeah? That'd be pretty cool of you, Ranma, thanks."

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
He's sporting the shy silence. Compliements are hard to react to when you never get them. "No problem.."

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 03:56 pm (UTC)(link)
A few more moments of idle puppy-petting made it pretty clear how neither of them were really much for conversation. With one last, particularly effective scratch behind Mizu's ears, Chad placed his hands on his knees and pulled himself up. "Well, guess I'll head in. Nice talking to you again, Ranma."

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
He wants to stop him from leaving but he mentally fumbles for a few minutes before speaking, "Chad. I... uh... I... don't know if Teddy is ever serious when he says he's going to talk to you.... but... please don't let him scare you... I really do... uh... want to go with you."

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 05:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hm?" It took a moment for Chad to catch all that, especially since Ranma had said it so quietly. "Oh. Right."

His hand ducked behind his head, rubbing his neck a bit. "Meh, I'm not worried. I've been hit by a truck before; a little cricket bat won't do much harm."

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 05:52 pm (UTC)(link)
"He wouldn't really hit... right?"

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Chad shrugged. "You know him better than I do."

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Ranma would have sweatdroped if this was an anime. "... You should be okay..."

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Chad nodded. Like he had said, a bat was significantly less of a deal than, say, a truck. Mosquito bite. Pinprick. No big deal.

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-29 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
Not when a guy as strong as a truck swings that bat... "Anyway.... You can go then... Have a good sleep."

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2006-09-29 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Chad nodded. "Thanks. You, too, Ranma. When you get there."

[identity profile] ranma-sao.livejournal.com 2006-09-29 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
Nod. Smile. Ekk.
