The Roof; Thursday Morning.

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

Setsuna found herself in a bit of repose (certainly not emo, thank you very much) on the roof, sitting with her body positioned toward the ocean and the many things that lie beyond it. Of course, one of the first things she did when she, Ami, and Billy returned from the rendezvous point was alert the people back at Kansai that Amagasaki was on the move again, but it still didn't settle her nerves at all that they should be willing to go this far just to get rid of her. If they were planning something and it went further beyond Tsukuyomi's little girlcrush quest to beat her...they must be planning something really big if they figured she was a threat while in an entirely different country still...

Thus...restlessness. And emoing...errrr, thinking on the roof.

"I don't tease nearly as much as you do," Alphonse commented.

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"Not lately, no," Setsuna admitted, "but you've been real terrible before. I'm just making up for lost time."

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

Alphonse rolled his eyes playfully. "I have not been terrible."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"Well, no, of course not," Setsuna said, biting her lip a little. "You could never be terrible, Alphonse." She was amazed that the blushing wasn't killing her right now. "Jus'...pretty close, that's all..."

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

Alphonse chuckled a little, unfolding this legs to cross them on the ground. "I'm sorry, then."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"You don't have to apologize," Setsuna said lightly and, after a moment of hesitation, lifted her hand so that it could go and find his. "But I'll accept it all the same."

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

"Good." Alphonse noticed her hand and folded his own over hers. "You know I wouldn't tease you to make you feel bad."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

Setsuna gave his hand a small squeeze. "Of course. And you know I'd never intend to do the same, right?"

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I know you wouldn't, no worries there."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"Good." Setsuna smiled. For a moment, she thought to maybe lean against him a little, but she didn't want to aggravate the wound by putting it i na weird position or inadvertently adding pressure to it, so she just ended up squeezing his hand again lightly.

Knowing that himself, Alphonse didn't lean in either. "You don't have any workshops today, do you?"

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"Nope," Setsuna responded softly. "Not today. You? That fighting workshop is on Thursdays, isn't it?"

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

"Oh." Even better; if she did, Alphonse would more than likely insist she'd skip it in favor of resting because of her arm, especially if it was a workshop that required physical activity. "Yeah, it is," he responded nonchalantly. "In a little while."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"What do you suppose you'll do today?" she asked, idly.

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

"Hmm." Alphonse looked thoughtful. "No idea. All the classes always seem to be... interestingly different."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"That's good," Setsuna observed. "Keeps the lessons diverse...." Her shoulders sunk for a moment. "I'd suggest we spar so I can see what you might have picked up, but, somehow, I don't think you'd take to that idea..." She gave him a small grin.

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

"No," he agreed firmly. "That wouldn't be good for your arm, either. Sparring can wait."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"...You really are worried about me aggravating it, aren't you?"

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

"It needs to heal properly!" Alphonse pointed out. "And it will do so faster if you don't."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"I know," Setsuna's head tilted a little; her shoulder lifted slightly. "I guess I'm just still not used to it."

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

"I just don't want you to make it worse before it can get better."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

A thought suddenly made Setsuna frown. "I wonder how this is going to effect the field trip..."

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

Alphonse looked curiously at her. "Field trip?"

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

Setsuna gave a small nod. "Alianne-sensei, Yondaime-sensei, and Deadpool are taking all their classes out for a camping expedition this weekend..."

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

"Ooooh." He paused, glancing pointedly at her arm. "But..."
