Well then, what are we still doing out here? You better up your game from last time.

[Despite her brain short circuiting, she remains unbothered- or at least she’s trying to…]

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 17d

[Uh oh. She meets his eyes and fights to keep from melting under his touch.]

I don’t know, Sylvain. What /are/ you going to do?

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 17d

Oh, I /know/ I am.

[Her voice slightly shook when he moved in close. C’mon…get it together.]

[Hilda spins around and smiles cheekily, holding up a peace sign.]

Well heeeyyyyy, handsome! You finally caught me.

[She winks and steps closer.]

[Hilda finally got bored of hiding from @sonofgautier.bsky.social so now, she’ll be walking out in the open.

Besides, she’s curious as to what’s going to happen when they finally /do/ run into each other.]

[Boy, is he slow to catch on! What would be considered annoying from anyone else, Hilda finds it endearing from Caspar.]

You make it sound like a bad thing! If you don’t /want/ to, of course, I can always go by myself.

[There she goes, back to teasing again. It’s just in her nature.]

Caspar von Bergliez @vonbigly.bsky.social · 27d

Haha! You bet I do. Last time, the semifinal round lasted almost twenty minutes and I was so friggin hungry by the time I

[ L o a d i n g ]

... You wanna get dinner?

Together??

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 27d

Well….how about you meet me for dinner later? Sounds like you’ll have worked up an appetite!

[Let’s try this again. Caspar is adorable- plus he’s kind, and he’s strong. There’s no harm in seeing how this will go.]

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 27d

You look gorgeous!! 😘😘

[Hilda is absolutely over the moon that Aliah reaches out towards her first. She smiles wide and gives her index finger for the baby to grab.]

Atta girl! She’s got good taste!

[With her free hand she reaches up to gently pinch her cheek, cooing at the little one.]

[Oh, geez... He better make up something fast so he doesn't sound like a dolt.]

Oh, yeah. Yep, you got no idea. I'm up to my ears with tournament signups... and stuff.

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 27d

[He’s leaving…crap, what does she say?

Does she /want/ him to stay?]

Yeah, you’ve probably got loads of other stuff to get to, right?

[She laughs.]

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 27d

Did someone say makeover~?! Count me in!!! Dorothea and I will take good care of you, Bernie!

Nah, I’d better stay here. Heh, I wonder where he’s at now…?

[REEMERGES FROM THE GREENHOUSE WITH A BOOT HEEL COVERED IN PEGASUS DUNG.💢💢💢💢💢💢💢]

I'm gonna strangle her.

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 27d

What if I just go back to my room and take a nap…? I sure am sleepy.

There's no way she's going back to the lake a second time.

. . . . . . I bet she's at the greenhouse.

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 27d

[She’s in the library now. No WAY he’d find her here.]

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 27d

We might not ever make it back home. What a shame.

Oh, when I get my hands on her... 💢

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 28d

[Hilda sees Sylvain run the other way and she lets out a big sigh.]

Phew!! Thanks, Gatekeeper! Knew I could count on you!

[She’s on the move again- but where will she go?]

Caspar von Bergliez @vonbigly.bsky.social · 28d

Good, that's... that's good...

[Oh man, her hair is so pretty... And soft looking... And shiny.......]

A-anyway, if you don't need more help, then—

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 28d

[She turns to look at herself in the mirror, grinning again.]

Oh, this is perfect! It’ll make doing my hair and makeup so much easier. <3

[She’s twirling her hair around her finger.]

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 27d

Yeah, silly goose! We can’t carry all of these bags by ourselves!

🏃🏻‍♂️💨💨

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 28d

[She might have told the Gatekeeper that she was hiding from someone.

He is supposed to keep a watchful eye.]

hilda. @prettylnplnk.bsky.social · 28d
