[ So basically she got in trouble twice, huh? Weiss can't help but feel bad about Texas' luck, but saying something about that would be rude, right? The wry smile on her face probably says it all though.
"You sure have a lot of bad luck..." ]
I'm glad that's all over then. [ Though it sounds like Texas is still stressed out about it... Weiss doesn't like drinking or wallowing her sorrows in alcohol, but a little wouldn't be so bad.
She lifts the bag again and waves it to get Texas to look at it. ]
How about we eat? After tea, maybe we can have a drink to take the stress away.
(no, she can tell by that smile alone. her luck is shitty. there's no way around that with or without sugarcoating. texas did keep unmentioned the third incident of the night, though. elevator ride into vampires being mad that a unclean mutt fell into the communal blood pool while having to impromptu rescue her new acquaintance. rin did swear her to secrecy after and cellinia is not in the business of spewing them, as befits that personality of hers.
normally alcohol isn't something texas thinks about. penguin logistics are known partiers, texas was often dragged into said parties but the issue is that there's a problem in her getting drunk. she is....disastrously a clingy drunk. if one wanted her to be receptive to attempts at affection, that was their best bet. getting her drunk past that siracusan alcohol tolerance into an amusing display.)
We can. Don't worry, I'm not much of a drinker in general even if my coworkers dragged me out to our work parties often....most of the time I got teased because I don't like sour or bitter drinks. Can't stand them, so I would get caught drinking sweet things like Tequila Lychee.
(that's also why her tea seems to be leaning on the sweet and aromatic side, too. she did seem curious on what's in the bag, although cellinia also considers that she has a bar. something that can be used another time were there to be a party thrown in her own suite....that is if they can talk her into that.
which shouldn't be hard, some people might have an easier time than others.)
Oh, don't worry, I'm not much of a drinker either.
[ The reasons why? She finds are a bit too personal, but she definitely may end up telling Cellinia about it later on once she's had a drink or so. Weiss is pretty tight-lipped about anything that is about herself, but may blab if she's in a good mood and has had some alcohol. ]
I just think it sounds like a good way to get rid of stress right now. Sweet drinks are also the ones I prefer. I think we have similar tastes.
[ For now, she sets the bag down and finally removes its contents, the pasta and the tiramisu! Sadly, she doesn't have any plates, but the restaurant at least gave Weiss some disposable forks to use. ]
I'd say this is all a weird combination, but I don't mind it all. Do you have plates we can use? I didn't ask for disposable ones from the restaurant. Sorry.
True. Whenever I was at home my boss would have us end the night off with parties, most of the time I didn't go too hard but I did participate.
(alcohol is fine enough, whenever cellinia spots weiss didn't have plates she gets up from the couch and saunters off towards her nearby kitchen. Thankfully she had plenty of them, getting stocked up was a must and she preferred to keep things nice and ready for in the event she has guests. she might be a loner in a lot of the ways yet company was something she never hated; if anything it helped distract her while she steps back into the living room with a few plates gathered up. she set them about the table for both sides while also bringing back water for when they do start drinking.
she's not an alcoholic, but she's had her fair share of hangovers that were terrible. it's best to keep some close-by in any case, the tiramisu and pasta isn't something she minds on terms of combos. there was worse done in terra and normally it varied on whether it was good or not; not that cellinia is an amazing cook but she did know her way around the kitchen enough to avoid eating out consistently.)
Don't worry about it, I mentioned it before to people but nothing beats the chocolate pasta sauce a celebrity chef made back in my second home. Long story short, he got exiled and near caused a diplomatic incident after moving to another country over it.
(then again, cellinia also would have made a face more if this was pineapple on pizza. like any warm blooded italian (siracusan in this case) she would have been offended. columbian by birth or not, her blood is still the same as her fellow countrymen who she left behind so long ago. men and women who would label her nasty things while under the impression she brought anything upon herself; all over one terrible deed that she would not wish upon others.
one she hasn't talked about no matter the way that moon sunk its claws in her, that demand to speak it out. to say it. that her terrible secret is one of the worst anyone could ever do. killing her father.)
[ Yeah, she's definitely dumbfounded. Did she just hear Texas right? ]
Chocolate pasta sauce? That sounds... [ She tries to figure out if Texas likes the idea or not, but from the other woman's usual vibes, she isn't picking up on hate or absolute vehemence. It might be offensive if Weiss straight up called it "gross" so she tones it down a notch. ] Unique.
[ Fortunately, seafood and tiramisu? Not quite as "gross"! Weiss sits down once the plates are on the table, serving herself a bit of the pasta from the takeout container. Texas has got about a serving and a half left in there, since Weiss doesn't eat a lot. ]
How much do you think you'll have? I'll put the food on your plate.
Don't worry, you can say it's gross. I even think that and I'll actually eat fruit on my pizza as long as it's an actual working combo. Not pineapple, though. I'm meaning more like apples and berries.
(she's honest, that counts for something. even if said honesty is likely making her father and grandfather turn in their graves at the knowledge cellinia eats fruit on pizza. traitor to her country, well, second country. she's not necessarily minding the idea much while she takes a sip of her tea from her seat. there's a lot she could go on about from terra. the chocolate pasta sauce aside there's always stranger food that people eat and indulge in.
or if someone was the doctor, boiling ramen in their mouth at 4 am counting as unique in itself, too. she'll refrain from letting weiss suffer that mental image unless she's curious.)
If my padre, father sorry, and nonno....grandpa were alive to hear me say that by the way they would have disowned me.
(she's. joking. maybe, that's always harder to tell with cellinia yet she wasn't serious. she can still make them every now and then while also thinking this over on how much she'd want. since there'll be leftovers she can take half of that remaining serving. pasta and tiramisu isn't as bad as outlandish culinary practices while cellinia makes sure the plates are within reach for them both at any point.)
I'll take half. I'm curious anyway about how similar the food is to my other home country anyway, Siracusan food can be unique.
[ She lets out a soft laugh when Texas says that it's okay to call it gross. She still won't say it, but it is pretty funny. It's good to know that Texas thinks it's gross, too, and that is more than enough. ]
I can't say I've had food with apples and berries before, unless you count salads? [ But that doesn't sound gross at all! Weiss actually does love apples and berries! ] Maybe we can find a dish with those sometime.
Padreβ [ More from her native tongue, eh? She blinks curiously. ] Why would they disown you?
[ Sounds serious... Weiss unfortunately can't tell that Texas is joking about it. She's surprised, and yet again watches her words and actions in case she might make her friend upset. It's why she puts some pasta on Texas' plate carefully, even prettying up the presentation of the pasta in a neat little circle in the centre of the plate. ]
Sometimes it can be interesting, fruit pizza is more a dessert from my birth country....I don't think other Siracusan's would like it.
(cookie dough and fruity toppings, that was only two things to go with it. texas did, however, not seem that surprised weiss enjoys salads. the wolf has a feeling that were anyone still alive from her own familiga that they would have been asking her to eat more than this. food is a part of their culture, and they are passionate about their cooking, passionate about most things in life that gave them pleasure. that even made them feel their happiest. cellinia? she does have few things that give her similar enjoyment, perhaps not food (she was never a big chef, but she tries) yet something else.
a more dangerous pastime in how she would do street races, speeds always been her game and there's no changing that even now. the question is something she near misses, for a moment texas snorts because it seems that her poker face has caused a misunderstanding. she wasn't going to be genuinely disowned from her familiga. god forbid that happen next had this still been like back then.)
I was kidding. Sort of, Siracusan's are big on food and it being the way they made it, or cooked things. It's why you'll see Broca and me judge over pineapple on pizza, even if I did try it before.
(at least she's honest? then again, texas mainly disliked it when people were too vocal about it being the best. in the sense of it being that they were trying to provoke others from the country, or were born into the familige as top dogs themselves in another one like texas. once weiss gets her plate full, texas takes it and her fork to try it. bundling up the pasta with a practiced ease from back then before taking it in her mouth with a hum of approval.)
What kind of sauce does it have? Hopefully not red sauce.
[ Because... eugh that just sounds so weird. Maybe she's thinking of the savoury kind of pizza little too much that she can't use her imagination for a dessert kind of pie. ]
I see. [ Not quite, but she's starting to get a better picture here. ] Are there humans where you're from? Or is everyone Siracusan?
[ She can't help but be curious, if only because she's reminded of her friend Blake all the more. Blake is quiet, but very particular about things. She especially was very particular about seafood. ]
None, actually, it's on baked cookie dough. I wouldn't eat it if it were a regular pizza made this way.
(that. probably would have helped more for her to mention that earlier, that this pizza isn't really a pizza. it's made with cookie dough and sweet fruit. an interesting combo. this likely was worth the sanity saved though from judging or being weirded out by cellinia's taste in food, as of now she's just somewhat glad that the pasta here isn't horrible. it spared her partially missing food from siracusa. other food she's tried ate is comparable to american or chinese from what she's learned during her stay.
for a moment, she did blink. cellinia near wants to ask for clarification until she realizes what weiss must have meant. if it was all lupo only from one country. cellinia did look thoughtful, legs crossed when she leans back into her seat and folds her arms. she's debating on how to explain this, luckily, it would take forever if she just went off explaining every detail about those from terra. broca likely didn't talk much about it then, either.)
No. Siracusa is a country. The races all vary, but there's more than us lupo from there. There's feline's like Broca....and vulpo which are foxes. A lot of them look similar to me and him, but there are some that are lupo, feline, and other races that have an appearance like Aak.
You can think of it like this for some of the races in Terra to start off with: there are wolves, dogs, cats, bears, birds, and sea life. Or in our terms: Lupo, Perro, Feline, Ursa, Liberi, Seaborn, or Aegir. Seaborn and Aegir are two separate things, though.
(this is without her going on about other races such as kuranata (horses), sarkaz (demons), and sankta (angels) in addition to many others. then again, cellinia did for a moment think about whether she should mention this or not, but:)
Also the size of them vary too when they're like Aak in appearance, there's a feline who goes by Mountain to give an idea on his size.
[ Okay, Texas should have said so sooner! That gets her to perk up. Weiss will forever deny having a sweet tooth, but she does like desserts... ]
Let's go find a cafe that has that here some time. I'm curious how it tastes!
[ It's definitely a plan for the future now. Weiss won't bother Texas about it now when they have other stuff to talk about. Not to mention, if she got injured, she shouldn't probably be going out much. Weiss will figure it out later on. They can talk about Siracusa instead! ]
I see... Where I'm from, there's a species called Faunus. One of my best friends is one. They have human traits and animal traits, too. Blake's a cat Faunus, and she has cat ears, although she can see in the dark and she also really likes fish.
[ Though she definitely thinks that Blake is more like Broca with how the two don't really talk much. Then again, Texas is pretty stoic, too... ]
You're kind of like her, actually. [ Yeah, now that she thinks about it, there are similarities. Weiss tilts her head at Texas with a sweet smile on her face. ] Quiet but kind... Though I can't say I've kissed Blake yet, so I can't really compare how you both kiss.
Yeah, cookie dough for the breading of it and fruit for the toppings.
(weiss might deny it, but cellinia doesn't. texas knows she has a sweet tooth, sweets are one of the few things that she indulges in personally. a treat that she likes to eat, on occasion. chocolate was the main one. the flavor of it being enough to help her cigarette cravings, that, and it was nice as a confectionery treat. plans for later aren't so bad, she does enjoy the idea of going out eventually for a snack of their own together. maybe without any shenanigans involved from the house.
while weiss talks, texas eats her meal casually. faunus? interesting. she didn't expect them to have a similar race under one name. then again, the name for everyone in the continent back home is terran's. texas can explain that more another time. they'll have plenty of time to deal with things; too much of it given they're all not heading back any time soon. home is something cellinia would always miss, but perhaps not so much as the people. certain people, anyway.
she was the one often stuck being responsible, despite not being that responsible herself. not with some things, texas can very easily go from calm and collected to doing something that would make others do a double take. which also includes her driving stunts, were there to be some manner of eventual racetrack added. as nice as the parking lot is, it's not enough for her to vent her frustrations without being an actual race.)
....the funny thing is that lupo do have night sight, but it's not like a feline's.
(her eyes also glow in the dark from it, not quite what someone wants to see. the number of times she's scared the others from that is a little amusing, but....it's the comment on her being like blake that makes her blink for a moment. well, that and the comment on having had not kissed blake that near makes her choke on her tea.)
I wouldn't say that I'm in the habit of kissing people, either. Not really friends suddenly. Resort shenanigans aside.
(god, that really caught her off guard. congratulations weiss, you surprised texas.)
It helps to hunt and stay safe, I imagine. At least, for actual wolves and cats and all.
[ That's how Blake explained things in class before, so that's what she knows. Weiss isn't too knowledgeable about Faunus because of her family's background, being the kind of people who discriminated against them to begin with, but she's changed her tune now. She knows better now.
If Texas and Weiss met when she was still a new student at Beacon? They likely would not have gotten along. Texas would have chewed her head off for being such a bitch. Fortunately, that's not the universe they're in right now.
Instead, over dinner, they're talking about kissing. Weiss may have started it though, much to Texas getting flustered over it. Sorry about that. ]
Yeah. I doubt we would have kissed if we weren't here. [ Hm, well. Actually, she pauses there as she thinks. ] I mean, not unless we started dating or somethingβ anyway.
[ Sorry, Cellinia, her mouth just runs before her brain can. ]
It can be useful like that, insomnia aside, I also can be more active at night.
(like an actual wolf, but that's a given. cellinia did seem to be at ease and drinking quietly her tea throughout this conversation between them. the nice thing is that she can explain further piece by piece what she knows about others across terra. cellinia herself has seen many people from different walks of life, some suffering more than others from an assortment of reasons. she won't assume broca mentioned his oripathy. that's always a sensitive subject at home thanks to the sheer number of people discriminating those unfortunate enough to get sick.
cellinia wasn't infected, but everyone she knew that was? they all had stories of differing treatment. some weren't treated poorly, that wasn't as often as the rest, with tales of being removed from home. or ostracized by their own workplaces for having the nerve to become terminally ill into being fired.
she did, however, raise a brow. she didn't see it as flirting. luckily. cellinia wasn't so positive that it could go that way from casual conversation about that. she was caught off guard, sure, but she had considered weiss wasn't serious about flirting with her. the wolf isn't very good at it to begin with, she also was able to catch these things fairly fast whenever someone has more serious intentions.)
You're fine. I thought that you weren't, me being caught off guard aside.
(that and she's not blaming her for speaking without thinking, exusiai does this often. maybe not the same way as weiss does, but she does do it a lot.)
[ Definitely very different from her! Weiss likes to get up early and sleep early, making sure she's done her skincare before she goes to bed. It feels like a crime to her whenever she wakes up late, but sometimes? She's just far too exhausted that her internal clock lets her rest more, much to her chagrin when she finally does get up.
When Texas says Weiss is fine from all the comments about dating and kissing, she lets out a soft and abashed laugh. Texas was caught off guard, but she was still pretty cool about it all! Weiss would have freaked out already if it happened to her. ]
Okay, good, I'm glad that was clear.
[ Aaand she'll shut up now and not say anything about that anymore, lest she make the situation more awkward and really piss Texas off. ]
So, do you want to do anything after eating, or would you rather stay in?
Not much of one, I think the earliest I get up on good days is noon.
(late noon, otherwise. texas isn't too bad at it if she has to be awake and sleep earlier, it's more that her body is used to operating similarly to the wolves that her race is part of. she's not always prone to it, though. sometimes plans also can help her show up sooner as well. or late night meet-ups, knowing her struggles with sleep can be often. nightmares were a norm, so was being unable to rest for long in dead silence.
best not to talk further on dating. texas is happy to move on from the comments about it quickly, weiss finding out that she has disastrous taste (except for two women in particular that are somewhat her type) might get her judged.)
I don't mind heading out if you got somewhere in mind.
(maybe later she can tell her a few stories, depending. texas does keep her past close to her chest about many aspects of it, but she won't hide much if she gets further questions on specific parts. perhaps not about her father, not many things about one certain childhood friend. that might be best left for some other time to not drag down the mood. with how often her mind's been going back after october, she'd rather avoid it.
besides, this was meant to help texas get her head back together. not focus on the parts of her life again that she screwed up with.)

she was the one often stuck being responsible, despite not being that responsible herself. not with some things, texas can very easily go from calm and collected to doing something that would make others do a double take. which also includes her driving stunts, were there to be some manner of eventual racetrack added. as nice as the parking lot is, it's not enough for her to vent her frustrations without being an actual race.)
....the funny thing is that lupo do have night sight, but it's not like a feline's.
(her eyes also glow in the dark from it, not quite what someone wants to see. the number of times she's scared the others from that is a little amusing, but....it's the comment on her being like blake that makes her blink for a moment. well, that and the comment on having had not kissed blake that near makes her choke on her tea.)
I wouldn't say that I'm in the habit of kissing people, either. Not really friends suddenly. Resort shenanigans aside.
(god, that really caught her off guard. congratulations weiss, you surprised texas.)

[ That's how Blake explained things in class before, so that's what she knows. Weiss isn't too knowledgeable about Faunus because of her family's background, being the kind of people who discriminated against them to begin with, but she's changed her tune now. She knows better now.
If Texas and Weiss met when she was still a new student at Beacon? They likely would not have gotten along. Texas would have chewed her head off for being such a bitch. Fortunately, that's not the universe they're in right now.
Instead, over dinner, they're talking about kissing. Weiss may have started it though, much to Texas getting flustered over it. Sorry about that. ]
Yeah. I doubt we would have kissed if we weren't here. [ Hm, well. Actually, she pauses there as she thinks. ] I mean, not unless we started dating or somethingβ anyway.
[ Sorry, Cellinia, her mouth just runs before her brain can. ]
I am not flirting with you right now, I swear.

(like an actual wolf, but that's a given. cellinia did seem to be at ease and drinking quietly her tea throughout this conversation between them. the nice thing is that she can explain further piece by piece what she knows about others across terra. cellinia herself has seen many people from different walks of life, some suffering more than others from an assortment of reasons. she won't assume broca mentioned his oripathy. that's always a sensitive subject at home thanks to the sheer number of people discriminating those unfortunate enough to get sick.
cellinia wasn't infected, but everyone she knew that was? they all had stories of differing treatment. some weren't treated poorly, that wasn't as often as the rest, with tales of being removed from home. or ostracized by their own workplaces for having the nerve to become terminally ill into being fired.
she did, however, raise a brow. she didn't see it as flirting. luckily. cellinia wasn't so positive that it could go that way from casual conversation about that. she was caught off guard, sure, but she had considered weiss wasn't serious about flirting with her. the wolf isn't very good at it to begin with, she also was able to catch these things fairly fast whenever someone has more serious intentions.)
You're fine. I thought that you weren't, me being caught off guard aside.
(that and she's not blaming her for speaking without thinking, exusiai does this often. maybe not the same way as weiss does, but she does do it a lot.)
I do understand the point you were getting at.

[ Definitely very different from her! Weiss likes to get up early and sleep early, making sure she's done her skincare before she goes to bed. It feels like a crime to her whenever she wakes up late, but sometimes? She's just far too exhausted that her internal clock lets her rest more, much to her chagrin when she finally does get up.
When Texas says Weiss is fine from all the comments about dating and kissing, she lets out a soft and abashed laugh. Texas was caught off guard, but she was still pretty cool about it all! Weiss would have freaked out already if it happened to her. ]
Okay, good, I'm glad that was clear.
[ Aaand she'll shut up now and not say anything about that anymore, lest she make the situation more awkward and really piss Texas off. ]
So, do you want to do anything after eating, or would you rather stay in?
no subject
(late noon, otherwise. texas isn't too bad at it if she has to be awake and sleep earlier, it's more that her body is used to operating similarly to the wolves that her race is part of. she's not always prone to it, though. sometimes plans also can help her show up sooner as well. or late night meet-ups, knowing her struggles with sleep can be often. nightmares were a norm, so was being unable to rest for long in dead silence.
best not to talk further on dating. texas is happy to move on from the comments about it quickly, weiss finding out that she has disastrous taste (except for two women in particular that are somewhat her type) might get her judged.)
I don't mind heading out if you got somewhere in mind.
(maybe later she can tell her a few stories, depending. texas does keep her past close to her chest about many aspects of it, but she won't hide much if she gets further questions on specific parts. perhaps not about her father, not many things about one certain childhood friend. that might be best left for some other time to not drag down the mood. with how often her mind's been going back after october, she'd rather avoid it.
besides, this was meant to help texas get her head back together. not focus on the parts of her life again that she screwed up with.)
