Scorpio had just returned from completing his stack of paperwork. More specifically he had ran in and submitted them by the skin of his teeth. He doesn’t usually do this. He’s usually always on time to get his work in. Mostly just to rub it into the stupid lion’s face for good measure. But now he was running late? How? He had it done, just there was more work to be done that he missed. He swears that he checked everything, so only one thing came to mind.

Sailor: “...You think Ichthys gave you his work?”

Scorpio: “Didn’t he?”

Sailor: “What if he didn’t?”

Scorpio: “You sayin’ he didn’t?”

Sailor: “Yeah...I did.”

Scorpio: “Wha-? Why?!”

The Punishments member had stood in front of Sailor’s desk, kinda was expecting Sailor’s off-handed praise. But he just had to work his sharp tongue and mutter his thoughts aloud, right when he’s about to leave her office.

Sailor: “Scorpio, my dude, that wasn’t his paperwork. That was yours.”

Scorpio: “But I did all of mine, I swear!”

Sailor: “...What if I said you accepted extra work from the last course because of something?”

Scorpio: “I-wait...yeah, I, uh, did say something like that…”

Sailor/Scorpio: “...”

Sailor: “Why the heck you getting red?”

Scorpio: “A-Am not!”

Sailor: “You freaking liar, what’re you hiding? What’s this thing you asked to do work ahead of time for?”

Scorpio: “Nothing! Stay outta my freakin’ business!”

Sailor: “Ugh, whatever. Hah, I had no time for that, get the heck outta here, I gotta work…”

He shuts up. He glances around the room. Yeah, her office is packed with paperwork, stacked all the way up to the ceiling. There’s so much around, it’s hard to tell if it’s even finished or, even worse, stuff that she still has to do. Sighing annoyed, he turns on heel and starts walking away. Just as he reaches to grab the doorknob, he mutters…

Scorpio: “Don’t work too hard again…”

Sailor: “Hmph, I’m not Kita. She has it harder than me.”

Scorpio: “I dunno, Wishes seems to be a bit slacking lately-”

Sailor: “They’re not slacking, they’re just in a jam. Now, get the heck out.”

So he does. Of course, he’s being as pouty and emo as he’s always been, he storms out with a huff. As he’s speed-walking down the corridor to his room he slams right into somebody which makes papers scatter all over the place.

Scorpio: “Ack! Hey, watch where-”

Zyglavis: “Scorpio! What is the meaning of this outburst? And why were you running in the halls?”

He just figured out that he screwed up by just ramming into his prime minister, Zyglavis. After picking up and sorting his papers, Zyglavis gave Scorpio an annoyed and exasperated look.

Zyglavis: “Do not tell me you got in a fight with one of the Wishes members.”

Scorpio: “No, I didn’t. Quit sounding like Sailor, because you’re not.”
