Because he can't stop himself from making a movie reference, the theme of this year's Prom is "Enchantment Under the Sea". (Don't get too freaked out, Marty McFly.) Equipment has been moved out, seating has been set near tables and walls, and a makeshift stage has been constructed to host the DJing equipment. There's plenty of food and drinks - including spiked, and very-much-not-spiked punch (magically protected, thanks to Ilsa). In a corner is a small set up for people who wish to get their photos taken by Tsukasa.

The party is under way - have yourselves a good time, Mayfield!

[No, say it isn't so, he will cry.]

I don't think anything will come of it, perhaps she'll realise her mistake in choosing him before long.

[Or she'll back off because she thinks Abel is gay, one of the two.]

[ex_seventh238]

Some people certainly are forward. Oh, I'm more wondering if Father would even understand what she may have meant. He's quite thick-headed sometimes, I'm sure you know too.

[still looking too amused and Cain why...]

[kinship]

He's more intelligent than you give him credit for.

[He's a little defensive of his brother's abilities. He can tease Abel, but then he knows it's a tease.]

[ex_seventh238]

It's not a matter of intelligence though, more like receptiveness to social cues.

[yes and it shows, you two are adorbs if we overlook the insane psycho brocon complexes...]

[kinship]

[Okay, Abel can be a bit crap at social cues, but he's way better than he used to be!]

I think even Abel might get the hint when a girl asks him out.

[ex_seventh238]

[Giving him a teasing smile.]

Are you sure about that, Cain? [your little brother is just a derptastic puppy, let's be real here...]

[kinship]

[Why did she ask it like that? Did she ask him out and found out first hand that he was oblivious?]

Positive.

[Or not.]

[ex_seventh238]

[staring at him...]

Haha. If you say so, Cain. Let's hope no misunderstandings crop up down the road then, hm? [LITTLE DO THEY ALL KNOW... I MEAN--]

[kinship]

Anyone would think you were anticipating misunderstandings...

[ARE YOU?!?!?!]

[ex_seventh238]

It just seems like an easy pitfall to be caught in, you know? I do teach at the high school here, and have been in a normal one back in my world. Romantic drama is fairly common, that sort of thing happens more often than you think! ...Not with grown adults normally though, no.

[Nope, NOPE--!]

[kinship]

[Romantic entanglements are just something that he never thought would be an issue with his brother, so he's still coming to grips with it.]

Then I'm sure we have nothing to worry about, really.

[ex_seventh238]

[why is ciel going to be right again... too genre savvy for her own good...]

If you say so, Cain.

[So that's who he's watching... Well. Ciel's got a few ideas, but she can hold them down and keep her mouth shut. ...Relatively harmless this is, right? Relatively.]

Well then, it's probably about time I get back. I know I've already asked, but are you absolutely sure you don't need anything?

[kinship]

[One of them has to be, and Cain is too blind with jealousy to look pragmatically at the situation at the moment.

He is relieved she is leaving finally, shaking his head with a smile.]

Nothing at all, really. Go and enjoy the dance, I insist.

[ex_seventh238]

[psycho yandere brocons everywhere...]

I'm doing good, you're the gloomy one on your own all the way out here. [she sighs, but lets go. Give her a sec to drop out of the tree, then - flawlessly as always, she'll land, dust her hips a bit, and no one would be able to tell that she seriously climbed a tree outside dressed like this.]

Alright then, I'll be heading back in. Take care and try enjoying yourself at least a little, okay? Boys your age should normally know all about that, I'd say!

[re: hint hint nudge nudge try living normally, go have fun, and do more stuff age-appropriate for you...]

[kinship]

[That is one of the things Cain finds most annoying about Ciel, that she can't accept he might be comfortable as who he is. She seems to think she knows better about what would make him have fun and what would make him happy, without ever considering that he might be content as he is.

Still, she's going, so he just smiles and raises a hand in farewell. Hopefully she'll go and break up Abel and Aurora out of concern for her.]
