handwritten; fail-locked from edgar

[moonspell]

[ Lydia's updating idly from her father's study while she's looking up certain things about a certain stone that a certain butler happened to hand her after a certain stupid orange-haired twit dropped it while aguing with Lydia. ]

Say that I made a bet with someone over whether or not Edgar would try to kiss me as soon as he gets the chance? I'm fairly confident in my chances even if the stakes are pretty high, but what do you guys think? It was sort of heat of the moment when I made the bet, but I'm wondering if Edgar would or wouldn't do something like that..

[ After all, he was a gentleman and actually didn't peek at her at the waterpark. So now she's second thinking her bet... it's a little late now, but still. ]

Has anyone else ever made a bet in the heat of the moment like this that they're not quite sure about the more they think about it but it's too late to take back?

See, I would make a bet right now, but that just sounds sort of horrible right off the bat and kissing is definitely something I wouldn't bet on. I dunno if it's just me, but it sorta seems distasteful...but why are you asking something like this, anyways?

[Of course, Sasayan has morals and the good kinds, not the ones that tell him to bet on something like kissing.]

...did you...make a bet with someone over this...?

[moonspell]

...With Raven, yes.

[ Slight. Shame here now. ]

I was upset with Edgar over something that hard-headed Rosalie was arguing with me about and he certainly didn't take my side even if she was clearly being

[ She's getting upset again and she knows it so she's going to stop writing and just breathe for a second before continuing ]

It was silly anyway.

[material_guy]

So you want him to try and kiss you?

[moonspell]

Of course not. I bet that he would try because Raven said that he wasn't the type to do things so frivolously.

[ ..Essentially, she bet that he was a manho and Raven said no he wasn't after Lydia's literally had a fight with another girl and Edgar refused to say who he preferred. ]

[material_guy]

It'd be better for you if he did, right? With the bet 'n all.

[moonspell]

It's not as though I want to have to slap Edgar.

[material_guy]

But you want him to try 'n kiss you.

[lifeisbrief]

You made a bet like that?

[cleanestwitch]

I do not think matters of the heart are things which should be bet upon.

[locked]

[hasdoneit]

[He's going to take a moment to just lock this here because this is serious shit for him alright.]

...you know, I didn't expect this sort of thing from you in the first place. I'm a little disappointed...

[He let out a little sigh, tapping his head over what he wants to say next.]

And why would you get upset over something like that in the first place? Don't tell me you're actually letting that guy get into your head like that.

[moonspell]

I don't necessarily believe it to be a matter of the heart to him.

[handwritten]

[moonspell]

It was rather in the heat of the moment..

[moonspell]

No..

[ A girl's feelings are complicated, Greed. ]

I just think that he might try it anyway.

[locked]

[moonspell]

Regardless of whether he was in my head or not, if he's going to keep trying to force this idea that he cares for me then refuse to even pick a hair color he likes better because a certain woman is being particularly rude and degrading toward me simply because he hasn't "sampled" me yet as though I were something he should be able to get a try of then walk away cleanly is still rather infuriating.

[selene]

So are the two of you going to kiss now?!

[ Usagi here is totally missing the point, but she probably doesn't even realise it herself.. (bless her innocent heart.) Instead she just seems like an excited shipper. ]

[voice]

[desertification]

[...Lydia, you're kind of weird.]

I'd focus more on winning the bet.

[Even if it's a stupid one.]

[material_guy]

You'd rather lose the bet than have him try and kiss you?

[rosejam]

Is the Earl trying something...?

[Don't break her innocent heart.]

[cleanestwitch]

And yourself?

voice;

[moonspell]

Hardly, I wouldn't kiss him.

[moonspell]

I don't know. I don't want him kissing me, but it's my expectation that he'll try at some point. I'm not even sure about that right now. It was a bad bet to make, but it's not as though I can back out of it..

[moonspell]

I would rather be friends who don't have to worry about kissing at all.

[voice]

[moonspell]

It isn't as though I have any role in winning that bet or not, it just depends on Edgar's actions. If I hold an active role in it and win, then it won't have been arbitrarily anyway.

[ It's like betting on which way the wind blows.. ]

[moonspell]

He usually is.

[rosejam]

Truly? He seems like such a gentleman...
