[oh, um. cheeks go a bit red at that.]

W-well, considering the list now... it seems a lot of people agree with me on this.

[assent]

[ Why stop there. ]

Well we do not know how this list is decided, do we? If it were up to me, you would be at the top.

[ Too bold. ]

[lefthandpath]

[SO BOLD.]

M-miss Sonia...

[what's he supposed to say now? SHE BEAT HIM TO IT?!]

[assent]

[ This is fine. ]

Yes?

[ Just keeps smiling. ]

[lefthandpath]

I... couldn't possibly be at the top. You would consistently beat me out in all ways?

[nailed it]

[assent]

[ Her face goes red now. ]

That is... not true.

[lefthandpath]

It is true.

[assent]

We may need to agree to disagree on this.

[ No you ]

[lefthandpath]

That would certainly be the diplomatic way to handle this.

[teasing, of course, since when has he ever cared about diplomacy lol]

[assent]

How would you suggest we settle this, then? I am unwilling to change my mind, you realise?

[ Diplomacy is a habit on her part, really. ]

[lefthandpath]

Hm... I suppose we could get the opinion of a third party?

Though if we want it settled between just us, then there'd have to be some sort of winning criteria we can both agree on.

[assent]

It would have to be so,eone we both knew, no?

So hmm... that is a little more difficult.

[lefthandpath]

Ah, then... maybe getting the opinion of the person who's ranked first this time?

[assent]

Rin? [ Her head tilts. ] I can agree to that, yes. Shall we find him now?

[lefthandpath]

[actually grins a bit and offers his hand?]

Mm, let's.

[assent]

[ She should give a warning that if they keep doing this disaster is sure to follow (thanks Novoselic customs) but at the same time she wants tombe selfish, so she says nothing as her hand entwines with his. ]

Over... over there, no?

[lefthandpath]

Mm, he should be around here somewhere.

Oiii! Rin!

[calling out for the number one hottest heartthrob.]

[flamingprick]

[He is around actually! He happens to be at the props room, returning all the crap he and Ruler used for their roleplay shenanigans. So he's putting this big red curtain back when he hears his name called out, and he looks over to the door and yells back:]

Yeah? What's up?

[assent]

[ Why is it the props room of all places—but she can’t get distracted now. A girl on a mission she follows up with. ]

If you would be so kind, there is something we would like you to confirm. [ Good luck, Rin. ]

[lefthandpath]

Yes, we thought it would be a good idea to have the current top heartthrob to determine which of us is hotter.

[this smile is completely safe in the Totally Knows Rin's Gonna Be Flustered And That's Kind Of Great?]

[flamingprick]

[He just. Looks at Allen.

And looks at Sonia.

And then goes back and forth a few times.]

And you thought I would be the right person to ask?

[Flustered doesn't even begin to describe what Rin feels right now. His face is beet red and he is totally stalling for time because he can't answer this question why would you ask this of him???]

[assent]

If you would like, please feel free to blame Allen for this. [ She’s still holding onto his hand with one hand, but the other points at him. ]

He will not accept that he should be there.

[ Maybe this will make things clearer. ]

[lefthandpath]

[wow, that's cheating?

... he can't say he hates it.

points at Sonia with his free hand.]

Miss Sonia doesn't seem to believe that she's earned a spot for that title quite consistently and so would be obviously be the correct answer.

[flamingprick]

[If Allen thinks what Sonia did is cheating, then he's in for a big surprise.

Rin takes a moment to set the curtain down before walking over to Sonia and Allen, stopping right in front of the two of them. For a moment he's just giving them a frazzled scowl, since how dare the two people he's crushing on try to ask him who's hotter?

But after a moment, that scowl turns into a smile.]

That's not very fair.

[He'll reach out to take Sonia's free hand into one of his, and Allen's free hand into his other.]

As if I could choose between the two of you. There's always room for ties, right?

[assent]

[ Well clearly he’s the hottest, so there has to be some hierarchy of some kind—but that’s not really it, no. It doesn’t matter what caused this, what matters is that she’s too flustered to say anything with how he’s smiling right now, and the words are actually Fair.

Both of her hands feel warm and her head starts to dip slightly.

How is not using diplomacy working out for you, Allen? ]
