ooh, british accent

[pandion]

It's not like Andi never noticed him before. He's totally cute and everything. She's been noticing boys for, like, a while. (She doesn't have the date noted in Inscrutable Cipher like Bella, but it's definitely been a while.) It's just that until he had to give that report in week two of American History she didn't hear him talk very much.

Mmmmmmmmmmm British accent. There's probably kinds. She can't identify this one and doesn't care, they're all yummy. He's yummy. Yum. She's going to have to talk to him at lunch, or something, if she can get him off by himself. Maybe Bella will help.

Andi scopes out the situation around Ethan Rayne, He Of The Hot Accent, at lunch.

"So? Take the pie, skip the rest. I don't know, what do you do for fun?"

[pandion]

"Is that the worst one?"

[instar]

"I read a lot. And write, some, but not stories or anything, just thinking on paper. I hang out with Andi, sometimes other people, do whatever they're doing as long as it doesn't require gross motor skills - watch movies, complain about homework, whatever."

[aeskhyne]

"Complain about homework, yeah, that sounds like a blast," snorts Trouble. "So why don't I just make you a pie sometime?"

[palmofyourhand]

"Probably the most embarrassing, at least."

[instar]

"Does that involve one of us traveling to the others' house?"

[pandion]

"Is there a story there?"

[palmofyourhand]

"Hah. I'm very proud to say there isn't."

[aeskhyne]

"Yeah," says Trouble. "Why, is that bad?"

[pandion]

Andi applauds softly, giggling.

[instar]

"More complicated. Involves parental permission, transit, and deciding which house."

[aeskhyne]

"I could make the pie and then just bring you the pie," he suggests.

[palmofyourhand]

Ethan cracks up.

[instar]

"Pie delivery service. All right. I still have to ask Renée if I can have you over, though."

[pandion]

"So what do you do besides school and reminiscing about foreign candy and avoiding making mistakes with the word 'pants'?"

[palmofyourhand]

"Nothing exciting," says Ethan. "The pants thing takes up a lot of concentration."

[aeskhyne]

"Sure," Trouble says agreeably.

[pandion]

Andi laughs again. "I bet you lie awake at night rehearsing conversations."

[instar]

"Do you just really like making pie and give it away so you can reuse your pie plate again sooner?"

[aeskhyne]

He shrugs. "Maybe."

[palmofyourhand]

"You caught me," says Ethan, eyes twinkling. "It's true. I admit it."

[instar]

"That is an unusual, yet productive, hobby. What kinds of pie?"

[pandion]

"You don't look tired at all, what's your secret?"

[palmofyourhand]

"Insane amounts of tea," he deadpans.

[aeskhyne]

"Every kind. What kind do you want? You allergic to anything?"
