3rd Broken Illusion

[ Phone ]
Whoever messed with the punch at the dance? Good going, idiot. Maybe you thought you were making things "fun", but all you managed to do was ruin an evening that could have passed without incident otherwise.

This town's bad enough. Why would you do something like that? Gah. [ U MAD, TOUMA?

Seriously, he didn't even want to be there, but it messed Misaka up badly, and thus subsequently cut something short that Mikoto was looking forward to. Even if the vomiting saved his ass. That's what has him all pissed off. ]

---

[ Action : 840 Hastings : Open ]
[ Now that he's gotten that bit of frustration out, Touma was back to being restless. He's currently milling about the house, trying to find something to do. The drones are off doing whatever it is that drones do out of the house. He is used to living (mostly) alone, so he's doing stuff just to have something to do.

This includes but is not limited to:
a) Cleaning his room, or organizing all the books in the house.
b) Raking the yard and bagging up the leaves.
c) Washing the car -- and contemplating getting driving lessons. ]

(ooc: Back-dated to Sunday, and action is open to anyone passing by the house, or stopping in to visit himself or Morgiana. o/ )

What about it? [ It's partly that, and partly just survival instinct. Saying no to Mikoto in a state like this is just plain dumb. But, really? He doesn't have any good reasons to stomp on their dreams in the first place -- he just thought that the tension was a natural part of their dynamic, and flipping that around right off the bat would be a dead giveaway. ]

Well, that's part of your role as a hero, I guess.

[punch_illusions_get_harem]

[ And he's about to ask what the deal was with that "hero" nonsense... but he feels it lines up with what he does remember, as well as his instincts, so he just lets it go. ] I guess.

[redirections.livejournal.com]

Better you than me.

[Maybe he's not so jealous of you after all you have to deal with homecoming and puking drunk girls.]

[punch_illusions_get_harem]

Heh. Maybe. [ It only goes downhill from here. Wait 'til his luck, literally, runs out on him. ]

[redirections.livejournal.com]

There's no maybe about it.

They deserve that.

[punch_illusions_get_harem]

...deserve for it not to be you, or for it to be me? [ Because one of those is only slightly less weird than the other, coming from a third party that claims to not care, but keeps talking about them anyhow. ]

[redirections.livejournal.com]

Both.

Not that I'd ever do shit like that.

[Why would he want to go to a dance when he has a nice couch at home and some cans of coffee?!]

[punch_illusions_get_harem]

Right. [ Sigh. ] Glad we established that. [ Or something. He doesn't even feel like breaking the logic behind half of that down. ]

[redirections.livejournal.com]

[Accelerator may be physicssmart but his "logic" is ridiculous in every way.

He took the Ugly Duckling of all things as proof how he was irredeemable after all.]

I'm surprised you even had to ask.

[punch_illusions_get_harem]

Well this place has a way of surprising people.

[redirections.livejournal.com]

And what the hell do you mean by that, dumbass?

[punch_illusions_get_harem]

[ Another sigh, more annoyed than the first. ] Nevermind.

Look. I'm gonna go. [ He doesn't have anything else to do, but he doubts this guy cares about excuses even if he made them up. This is the freedom of not having a gun waved in his face! He can hang up when he wants to. ]

'And it hurt the next morning,' Misaka feels the need to inform you of the headache she had earlier this morning.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

I knew you'd be down here.

[punch_illusions_get_harem]

[ Touma jumps a bit in the seat and turns to look over the back of the couch. ] Sorry to hear about it. I still can't believe someone did that...

oops forgot to track it

[misakanetwork]

'Misaka doesn't even know what happened,' Misaka answers honestly.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

You drank too much alcohol and got drunk.

[punch_illusions_get_harem]

Some idiot spiked the punch. [ Sighing. ] I'm surprised you didn't notice, but if you didn't know what to look out for...

Just how much did you have, anyhow?

[misakanetwork]

'You took too long to dance, Misaka didn't have anything else to do' Misaka avoids the question of the exact ammount.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

That's a dumb question, Touma. It doesn't matter how much she had, it was enough to make her drunk.

[punch_illusions_get_harem]

--I guess her tolerance isn't all that important. [ He turns back around and settles into the cushions. ] I still wanted to figure out how strong it was, but I didn't have any. [ No time for it. ]

[misakanetwork]

'All that matters is that Misaka still remembers that she got something better than dancing,' Misaka announces proudly.

[1-21jigawatts.livejournal.com]

[Yep, Misaka is grinding her teeth over here.]

[punch_illusions_get_harem]

[ ...crap. He's not enjoying this sudden tension.

No wait.

WAIT.

He can fix this. ]

It doesn't count if you're drunk. [ ...or not? ]
