            or, secret third option— [ their wooden staffs clash after whizzing through the air, she manages to throw his to the ground, surprising even herself for a moment. she grins, walking closer, leaving just enough distance to lightly poke at his chest. ] you’re going easy on me.

            [ she pulls her notebook from behind her, nodding, a bit nervous. ] yeah, everything’s fine. it’s just— every hunt i write what i learned, their weaknesses, abilities… the basics in here and i was wondering if you’d wanna help me fill it up since you’ve been at this for longer than me. 

[ he shakes his head,  lips downturning doing so.  his posture straightens in his chair at his desk. ]    nope.  what’s going on?  everything alright? 

id: @dearprey

            maybe. [ she draws on the word, throwing on her shirt over her tank top, she flips her hair over the back. ] i have a long appointment at the shop today but i’m quick. why? is the surprise super time sensitive? [ she teases, though he was on the other side of the wall, he could probably hear the smile in her voice, curiosity making her get ready much faster. ] 

[ a small chuckle slips past his lips,  nodding. ]    yeah.  i have to go meet with someone shortly,  but i’ll have the rest of the day off.  are you going to be here when i get back?

            [ another yawn follows, nodding as her eyes adjust, watching him under the guise of passively listening. she nods, pulling the covers from off her. ] how mysterious— what’s with the stuffy suit? [ she teases, arms crossing over her chest as she stops just at the bathroom entrance. ] another meeting?
