Who: Natsume, Chrono, anybody else.
When: Day 113, Evening to late night.
Where: 4th Floor
What:

[ On the fourth floor today you might notice there's a small pile of things near one corner-- a chair, multiple hand-sewn balls, a few knives, a few pairs of sticks connected by a rope with an odd double cone-thing for each of them-- apparently left, abandoned.

...Except when one looks up, they'll notice that on the rope tied across the 4th floor balconies, Natsume(in her plain white leotard, only just a little worn by now) is walking backwards along it, leading Chrono slowly across with her hands linked with his. Chrono looks like he's simply concentrating on not becoming the next Humpty Dumpty. ]

One step at a time-- that's it...

...holy shit...

[deretsune]

[ Good thing she can't smell you from up here. ]

What is it?

[approve_dammit]

You guys... The fuck are you doing?

[deretsune]

I'm teaching Chrono to walk the tightrope.

[approve_dammit]

...why.

[deretsune]

Because that's what I do. I'm a circus brat.

[approve_dammit]

...What's a circus?

[deretsune]

It's a performance of acrobatics and death-defying feats. Incredible things.

[approve_dammit]

Oh. ...you're not gonna jump or anything right?

[deretsune]

That wouldn't be very smart without a net, so I won't.

[approve_dammit]

Well you're up there dangling over nothing.

[deretsune]

I'm a professional. I won't fall, anyway.

[approve_dammit]

Still looks fucking insane.

[deretsune]

To each their own, I suppose.

[ SURE AM GONNA KEEP WALKIN' THIS TIGHTROPE BACKWARDS :V ]

[approve_dammit]

*FOR ALL HIS NEGATIVITY, HE'S CLEARLY TRYING VERY HARD TO HIDE HOW IMPRESSED HE ACTUALLY IS*

Sure, if you like going splat.

[deretsune]

[ She does seem to stiffen at that. ]

If you're just going to keep criticizing me, bug off.

[approve_dammit]

Don't wanna.

[deretsune]

Then keep your mouth shut.

[approve_dammit]

Or what?

[deretsune]

Or nothing. I don't want to hear it.

[approve_dammit]

You can't stop me talking. I'll do whatever the hell I want.
