"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]"

No, not tonight.

[ The rebuke is playful and pitched with it. With one hand curled over his eyes, the other affixes at his sleeve, two fingers grabbing the fabric’s end and tugging him along. She’s careful to ensure he avoids the major obstacles that could cause a banged knee or a stubbed toe [e] the table, the living room furniture with their hard wooden frames.

action.

[beaconed]

I.. guess...? I-I mean, what're we doing?

[ Pyrrha's no Cardin Winchester, but he does remember one of his many "pranks" starting out the same way as this is progressing so far. Naturally, Jaune believed him every time, only to open his eyes and find his face has been drawn on with permanent marker, or even worse, getting pushed into the river that one time.

It makes him instinctively nervous, but of course, he also trusts Pyrrha more than anyone. ]

[ Pyrrha is definitely not going to push him into the river. His present - which, admittedly, is also there for her enjoyment - is a shiny, brand new used Playstation 4, sitting proudly at the bottom shelf of their small entertainment centre.

[ On cue, he immediately opens his eyes, feeling all relief from anxiety wash over him in an instant. Then, when he sees what's in front of him, his heart rate shoots up again, although for a different reason this time. ]

I-Is that...

Of course I remembered.
