someone left a cake in the rain
[BANG. BANG.]
Dash! Dash!! Open up!
[Doorknocking this violent isn't an uncommon occurrence around this particular dorm, especially accompanied by that voice. What might be a bit more notable is that the sound actually seems to be coming from somewhere close to the floor. Yes, closer than usual. In fact, knocking probably isn't the right word...]

What happened to it? What do you mean?
no subject
Not really to it so much as what it's doing here at all. Last thing I remember from back there, I already didn't know where it went. [He looks down at his foot one more time, then goes back to busying himself with his laundry.] But that's fights for you. They aren't all as pretty as the comic books make them out to be.

no subject
[She has experience in this, after all.]
no subject
[He hasn't stopped shuffling around, putting his clothes away.]
I didn't even know if it was another mistake or not. I could've told them to stop. Wanted to, a few times. But each time I started thinking that, all I had to do was remind myself how little any of it meant. And that made it okay.
no subject
[And having zinged him...] How little it meant? What do you mean?
no subject
no subject
...Yeah, that is a good point.
