Sage nodded slowly with a knowing smile, brows high and teasing. “Right.”

When he straightened from her shove, she looked over to watch his eyes go big, waiting on her.

“Hmm… If I lose…”

“I’ll make you whatever you want for dinner, next three days. I'll go to the market and everything.”

Sage did a lot of cooking, already. After learning a thing or two from Sénon Game in her teenage years, she had won many a heart through the meals she'd offered. However, she didn’t typically serve by request.

her concession was perhaps the most surprising of all. he'd tasted her cooking before, and the masterwork that it was. this would be huge.[break][break]

"three days, eh?"

his grin becomes audible, a devious chuckle hiding behind it.

"okay, yer on."

they approach one of the first booths he could see. balloons look taped to the wall, with a number of darts placed in front of the customer. target practice, then?[break][break]
"ladies first."[break][break]
a sweeping grand gesture of a bow ushers her forward. the tease would be clear.[break][break]

Ladies first. It elicited an eye roll, but her head smirked as it shook.

“Whatever.”

Picking up three of the darts, she took one in her right hand, lined up and threw. One after the other, smiling regardless of the outcome, because it was fun.

Sage sighed as each of her darts homed in on the same bad outer ring. At least she was consistent, right?

“Okay, Wayland; show me how it’s done.”

And that he did. Honestly, she’d not expected him to win, having had more faith in herself than she clearly should have. However, she didn’t look bitter about such an outcome.

Instead, she sighed and smiled.

“Guess I’m feeding you next few days. Congratulations.”

it's his turn to give her a friendly nudge this time, but he's pulled away by the gentleman behind the counter. he'd hit just enough to win a prize. nothing big, or fancy. but it was something, right?
[break][break]
his eyes scanned and then widened, quickly pointing at one that was hanging up. in a few more moments, it's his.
[break][break]"here. least i can do fer winnin' the bet 'n all."

Sage smiled, happy to please when it came to food—even now, that she’d agreed to base her decisions around King’s tastes the next few days. She wondered what he liked to eat.

He was pulled away, and she watched as he picked out the Phanpy, finding it amusing, and then, much less so when it was handed to her.

There was a sudden feeling of realization, and her smile fell the smallest bit—not in disappointment, just in a way which was clearly caught off-guard.

King liked her.

She bit her bottom lip a bit, at first not knowing what to think.

“It’s uh—it looks like my Donphan when he was unevolved.” Her voice was a little higher than usual, and she had no idea why. Eyes hung too long on the stuffed elephant, unable to meet his for a moment.

When she finally did look back up, she found herself blushing, and bizarrely unable to blink. “Thanks.” ’Shit.’

What was happening?

She turned away, trying to be subtle.

it took her a second, to take the prize from his arms. her expression was... odd?
[break][break]
"of course it does. it's why i got it."
[break][break]
something about her seemed off, and king couldn't place it. he's never seen this side of her. when eyes creep back up to him, cheeks faintly flushed with red, he narrows his eyes beneath a furrowed brow.
[break][break]
"are ye alright? ye not feelin' well? cus we can stop and i can take ye home, if ye want."
[break][break]
men. oblivious creatures.
[break][break]
oddly enough, however, he reaches out with the back of his hand to touch her forehead, as if to check her temperature. his lack of clear results only has him chewing ever so slightly on his bottom lip.
[break][break]
"hm."

Well, that was awfully thoughtful and attentive of him.

Then, the way she blushed and the reason for it went straight over the man’s head. She seemed sick to him or something, and he touched her forehead to check. It was too much, and she turned away.

“Uh, no; I feel fine.”

their brief contact was too inconclusive to be sure. his hand hovers there, for a moment, as she turns his head. had he... done something?
[break][break]
"o...kay."
[break][break]
king bit his inner cheeks, thoughts rolling one after the other. he broke his silence with a question. oddly enough, a linger of hope was tacked onto its end.
[break][break]
"do you want to keep playing?"

He sounded confused, but she stayed turned from him. She was too. Her hand squeezed lightly, idly on the stuffed Phanpy hanging at her side.

The suggestion took the pressure off the moment, and she jumped for it.

“Yeah; let’s go. What next?”

like a blood-lusted sharpedo, she lunges for the concession of his offer. he, being ignorant as a door knob sometimes, fails to see the flux of emotions.
[break][break]
"ye, alrigh'. got any ones ye enjoy best?"
[break][break]
his eyes dance between a number of different kinds. some involving fishing and others tossing rings; hell, there was even a game for shooting basketballs.

odd.

they finally land on one in particular. wooden horses, and rifles.

“Uh…”

Her eyes scoured. Carnival games. They were all sort of the same to her, really. And, right now, anything would do to draw her away from this awkward situation.

Guns?

“Fine, I guess. Average? Why—”

Her gaze found what he was looking at. “Oh. Yeah, okay. Let’s do that one.”

his smirk returns, devious, mischievous and never ending trouble. with her in tow, they move to the booth. as always, the woman behind the counter, explains the rules.
[break][break]
"so, just gotta shoot the target with the water. simple 'nough."
[break][break]
grabbing the rifle, he plants the butt into his shoulder and puts his elbows onto the wooden counter. behind the weapon, with one eye closed, he gives her a quick chuckle.
