"Helloooo! You've reached Jaune Arc! If I'm not answering, it means I'm probably off somewhere fighting monsters or... doing something really awesome like saving a cat, or the president's son! You know how it is, a leader's schedule can be really hectic nowadays, ha ha! Just kidding, I'm probably in school, but I'd totally do those things if I ha-- [BEEP]"

[ The fact that it's raining waste is temporarily shifted to the back of her mind. At the front of her mind: what does another person's face feel like? Strange, that's what. But - nice, wow. She touches his lips and his nose. Moves her hands to his cheekbones then his jaw. Man what is with people here and their eyes?? ]

...What colour are your eyes, Jaune? I thought they were violet, but... now they seem blue.

[ Oh that's right PIDGEON SHIT. ]

E-Ew. [ She searches for Jaune's gaze, holds it, and unpeels her fingers. One by one they leave him the hell alone. Then, just as slowly, she steps away.

AND THEN ALL AT ONCE SHE STEPS AWAY FLEE!!! ]


Hey, uh, what's your favourite food anyway?!

Mm, no. [ shaking her head ] It's okay this time.

[ And here is the part where she does something unexplainable, baffling in that it comes from a place of complete and utter sincerity; she means what she says! But the tone and the delivery come from Elsewhere. Instinct, maybe???

Some better version of herself with a hunch that, right now, as they are, the thing to do to make this experience even more enjoyable (if totally insane) than it already is would be to turn to face him fully, to face him flush, smile a little wickedly, and move her hand near his face again. Not touching. But close. ]


It gives me an excuse to do this again before we eat.

[ She doesn't know where it comes from, but her heart is going a hundred times a minute and it's fun and scary as hell.

Author's Note Edit: It's called flirting, yes, and she's KILLING IT GIRL but lol this is gonna be the last time she's this cool for ages. ]

Do what? Touch you? [ She can feel it as her face grows warm (though it's worth noting that might have more to do with Jaune's proximity than the last line); it's impossible not to notice the contrast in the cool wind of late spring. Doubly so once her hair is whipped up and around them, though it's not in a way that's symmetrical or tidy, not like stage set. Random strands not held by her ponytail get in her face and stick to her mouth, which is damp because she's been licking her lips almost unconsciously throughout the entire conversation it seems.

It's precisely because she's so noticeably flustered that she decides to do absolutely nothing to hide it. ]


No... [ Her tone is still slow and measured, but there's less confidence this time. More like an inside joke than a come-on. She doesn't look away. Holds her facial expression extremely still. ] If I did that, you'd get used to it.

What good is a threat you'll eventually get used to?

Jaune. [ For the first time her voice hardens - stiffening in the direction of fear rather than indignation or anger. This. Is.

Not slow.

But she can't stop herself. She can't hold herself back from the edge of whatever cliff - and it's one she hadn't known was there at all! - they've found themselves teetering on. Even if she can only just barely grasp the edges of this and what it means, why does it seem they're always falling onto things?

Swallowing yields no result. Moving yields no result. Not that she isn't: Rapunzel's hands, smaller than his (and gosh, this is the first time she's really seeing their size difference and appreciating it), are trembling along with the rest of her. Her chest has gone tight and breathing has become all but impossible, has become not unlike one side-effect she'd experienced after drinking one of those terrible fucking potions... She doesn't need to see a healer to know there's something very wrong with her, to know she needs help, but the person she'd turn to for help here is - is - ]

[ –And then.

And then!

As he's brushing the hair from her face, his thumb grazes her bottom lip. It's fast and his hand definitely doesn't linger.

But what it's done to her has, and that's something unlike any other feeling she's ever had.

Ever.

It's electricity and heat and, with Jaune's eyes fixed so steadily on her, it's excitement too suddenly. Her heart is throwing itself against her ribcage like something caged and hungry. Looking briefly at her shaking hands, she knows her body is entering some kind of bizarre fight-or-flight response to whatever crazy neurotransmitters and hormones are surging through her. Making her– ]

[ THIS IS SO WEIRD. THIS IS SO WEIRD.

THIS IS SUCH A DISPROPORTIONATE REACTION TO BE HAVING TO THIS.



TO BE HAVING TO HER FRIEND JAUNE who, let it be said, is doing her a pretty nice ass favour getting that stupid hair out of her face. ]

[ AND YEEEEEEEEET.

(This is all roughly occurring within the space of a few nanoseconds. Here, Rapunzel's brain stops to revel in how good this whole thing feels. She closes her eyes and shivers and smiles and - moans? That's embarrassing. ) ]

[ NOPE.

NOPE. Too much sensation. It's all way too much. The tension, the physical response, the emotional component (what even is that??) – nope. Rapunzel is officially NOPEing the fuck out of this situation. Without any warning whatsoever, she gasps and jerks back, pushing against Jaune's chest at the same time. ]

[ Aw. But that's... sadly not the worst part. The worst part is that she feels terrible afterwards and so blurts out the first thing that comes to mind.

In this case, that's: ]

Ye-yeah! Right? That's so weird, hah. I mean. Is that like... a job I could get o-or... Heh.

[ This is probably the worst decision she's made in a very long time. Worse than fish muffins. Worse than indoor archery. Worse than letting some ridiculous tsundere talk her into some ridiculous dinner party. ]

[ There is virtually NO SOUND as she follows after him - virtually none because there are a few students here and there weaving their way across campus. On any other day she might entertain herself with the idea that, heh, she probably knows some of these people and they might even remember her! That's awesome!!!


Not today. Today, right now, after "Is that a job I could get?" and whatever... Thing it was that just happened, Rapunzel only has brain power enough left to keep an extremely wide berth from Jaune as she basically stomps/storms past, rigid as a board and eyes FACING FORWARD.




After that she can't remember how to walk properly, tbh. ]
