( There is an awful lot of clucking on this feed and not all of it is incoherent bird talk. )

Vous devez être courageux avec vos sentiments! Dites-leur de le monde!

( Alexiel's heels click hollowly against the sidewalk as she approaches the flock. )

Et qu'est-ce que vous savez au sujet de mes sentiments? ( Speaking the various languages of humans isn't so hard when you've been around as long as Alexiel has. ) Je préfère les garder pour moi.

( The hens congregate around her feet and cluck louder. )

Le temps est compté! Vous perdrez votre chance!

( Pursing her lips, the Angel barely refrains from rolling her eyes. But she does nudge the hens out of the way with the toe of her shoe. )

Déplacer.

( * Translation (the hens are in italics): You must be brave with your feelings! Tell them to the world!

And what do you know about my feelings? I prefer to keep them to myself.

Time is running out! You will lose your chance!

Move. )

You're welcome to drop off their bodies at the hotel's kitchen.

I've yet to kill any talking hens.

Perhaps the City is trying to spread the avian flu.

I would agree except these hens seem far too lively.

And offering the worst advice. [ Nearby, clearly audible, a bird trills, ] A woman's lips are never just lips. They are red bows, rose-buds, beestung secrets...

[ Glowering, he shoves the clucking pest away. ]

I wouldn't call it helpful advice. ( They are far too nosy for their own good. ) At least I'm not alone.

Perhaps they're simply here to instigate drama. That's the biggest pastime in the City, as it is.

If so, I'm not in the least surprised.

Are they reminding you of a woman you know?

[ooc: He can speak French, but I can't. Couldn't those be four Austrian hens? x) Anyway, I'll just put it in Italics!]

I'm amazed those birds are still alive.

[And if he is curious what they are urging her to, he's keeping it to himself.]

[ooc: I can't speak French. I used Google translate and very careful wording. ;D]

Ils sont à peine en vaut la peine de tuer. [She is going to pretend he can't understand their conversation.]

[ *They are hardly worth the effort to kill.]

So what should you tell to the world?

[Unfortunately for her, he can.]

Le monde n'a pas le droit de savoir. ( She might be a little defensive now. )

( *The world doesn't deserve to know. )

Such contempt for the world? Don't you go sounding like me.

Who deserves to know?

Sujets du coeur devrait être privée. Même les démons ont droit à leur vie privée.

Vous.

( *Matters of the heart should be kept private. Even devils deserve their privacy.

You. )

( Private ) I'm so, so, so sorry. THESE TWO!

( Private ) Well that went well. XD <3

But at least I love you!

This is why we can't have nice things.

confined_to_briah - 2012-12-22 06:25 (UTC) - Expand

I just want to smoosh them together.

sympathyforme - 2012-12-22 06:25 (UTC) - Expand

Damn the hens for making it awkward. <3

He even wanted to hear it. He just couldn't deal.

sympathyforme - 2012-12-22 06:29 (UTC) - Expand

Well now he knows and she won't be bringing it up again. Because she doesn't like emotions much...

confined_to_briah - 2012-12-22 06:41 (UTC) - Expand

He might come around and say it back. Eventually.

sympathyforme - 2012-12-22 07:41 (UTC) - Expand

Only to have her jump out a window in response. Dysfunction.

confined_to_briah - 2012-12-22 07:42 (UTC) - Expand

They need Setsuna to help them communicate.

sympathyforme - 2012-12-22 07:45 (UTC) - Expand

Any kind of counseling would be good. Poor Setsuna.

You don't have to listen to them. As long as you're honest with yourself.

[Look who was studying on his own after Karl got him stared! Besides, if Alexiel knows it, the knowledge is inside him already.]

What makes you think I'm not honest with myself? [A tad bit defensive here, sorry Setsuna.]

[He's used to it.]

I didn't say you weren't. Just as long as you are, it's not an issue.

But, you know. If there is something you need to act on, and you don't want to admit it, that's not being honest with yourself.
