@TemporalWhimsy The woman's face lit up between him sitting and the cold feeling from the frozen dessert. Peeling her sights away from her laptop to look at it and then him.
"Funny. Reading actually."
It may not look like work to him, but her brain was definitely starting to feel it. —
"It wasn't my fault!"
He is not getting blamed for this after doing all of the work. NUH-UH.
"Everything took just fine it was when I started reinstalling your games of ''''questionable'''' content that it decided to crap out on me!"
"Like the one you left? Yeah, it's right here."
The woman chimed as she caught up. Electing to not hand it over this time as she meandered her way past towards the stairs.
"But I guess you don't want it that badly."
Helping herself to a sip. Taunting,
"Hha, yeah that's good!"
He confidently strode towards the lab, reinvigorated by the water. That was, until they were almost there. Slowly but surely, he began to slow down again.
"So... About that water."
"Don't forget the lube and napkins while you do."
NOT what he meant but a girl's gotta have her fun too. Especially when dealing with a mental case like him any moment now, Mr. Virgin (as if she's one to talk) was gonna bust his ass from the ecchi nature of her remark.
"....You know what we label people like you? Dream Squasher. THAT'S what you are."
He decided to accuse rather than address the obvious flaw in his idea. Much less accept the fact this was clearly a losing argument on his end.
"Now I have a computer to prep if you don't mind."
— and shook it. Giving chase.
"At least take the thing I came all the way out here to deliver!"
Every step he took, she had to take like two or three more just to catch up. Ugh,
"Assistant my a— I AM NOT!"
Kurisu snapped, with a stomp of the foot. Red in the face with one too many nicknames to account for in succession. God, why was he so—!
Spotting the abandoned water bottle through the corner of her eye before she went and angrily snatched it up —
He suddenly rose from his seat, seemingly being energized by her provocations.
"Hououin Kyouma is anything but 'pathetic'. I'd ask if you even know who you were talking to, but you /are/ my assistant."
A wicked smirk.
"I'll accept your tsundere tendencies, @-channeler."
