[4th Scene] [In Person for Violet]

[silver_lucifer]

[Anyone out around the festival in the evening in Violet might notice someone tall, slim, in a silver and lavender kimono, silver-opal hair partly done up, full makeup, and preened to the hilt; a slightly less dead looking than usual Feebas carried in one arm with gold ribbons running through his “fin”, while a Pidgeotto hops along behind.]

[Yes, Kuja’s out enjoying the festivities, a touch more on the “trap” side than usual, and in an unusually good mood; feel free to go bother him, mistake him for a lady, etc!]

I always thought that what differentiated a "wish" from a "plan" or a "goal" was the fact that wishes are generally somewhere near the border of "unattainable."

Usually, but depending on the wish, those boundaries can end up being very fluid things - all it might take is a small change in circumstances for the "impossible" to be "attainable".

No world operates on extremes and general information alone; of course there are always exceptions. That hardly means that such exceptions are the norm.

Perhaps you're taking "wishes" too extemporaneously? After all, depending on one's situation, a "Wish" could be as simple as "I want my family to stay together like this", or as ephemeral as "I want power" or "I want to decide my own fate". It's a rare person that doesn't desire something they're not sure how to attain.

What are you wishing for today?

[] Now now~ a lady must keep her secrets~

When women play coy, it often means that it has something to do with sex. Right...?

[It's a bit of a shot in the dark... but L happens to be one of those people who just doesn't wish for things he's not almost positive he can attain.]

[Action]

[silver-lucifer.livejournal.com]

[] Oh, on that you're dead wrong.

[Action]

[dead-black-eyes.livejournal.com]

[L's also not good with women. Or men, for that matter. Or people in general.]

That far off? Really? What is it, then?

[Even though explaining why one is playing coy somewhat defeats the purpose.]

[Action]

[silver-lucifer.livejournal.com]

Certainly not quite that shallow, but I'm afraid my aspirations are a little more complicated, far simpler, and quite private. []

[Action]

[dead-black-eyes.livejournal.com]

[L's generally pretty good at disguising his reactions, but a small, frustrated exhalation makes itself heard.]

Tease. That's inherently a contradiction.

[Action]

[silver-lucifer.livejournal.com]

Many things are when they're paraphrased. []

[Action]

[dead-black-eyes.livejournal.com]

That makes no sense, and you know it.

[Action]

[silver-lucifer.livejournal.com]

Oh, it does from where I'm standing - isn't that the nature of any riddle, that it doesn't seem to make sense until you've found the solution?

[Action]

[dead-black-eyes.livejournal.com]

But even the most tedious riddles give one something to work with. You've just been intentionally vague and inane. I'm ready to just say you're hiding a penis under your kimono and call it quits.

[Lol accidentally correct conclusion, whut]

[Action]

[silver-lucifer.livejournal.com]

Now if only you could blunder that accidentally across my history, hmm? [] My wishes are simple enough, but the reasons they exist aren't nearly so simple - and if I wanted you to know my life's story, I would've told you.

[Action]

[dead-black-eyes.livejournal.com]

[L blinks.]

If only...? I wasn't being serious. Are you?

[He's staring at your crotch, Kuja. :/ ]

The conclusion wasn't uninvited, or unreasonable... you hinted at it, and... well, is it true?
