KO!

"KO!" the game declared in that bolsterous voice you always hear in these fighting games. Sinking down to her knees, Etna turned her face upward fists raised high. "NOOOO!" she wailed in an overly dramatic fashion. Naturally this garnered some stares. I groaned, smacking myself in the forehead. Etna...you clever witch...

I was certain that Etna was doing it for the sole purpose of embarrassing me. A measure of payback in return for me kicking her ass. ...it was a damn impressive move, you know. Her character was actually reduced to large chunks. You should have seen it.

As suddenly as her scream began, it stopped as Etna sprang to her feet. "Okay, whaddya want?" she asked me in a near monotonous voice in direct contrast to her scream. "...you are SUCH a wicked girl," I told her, giving her a semi-dirty look. In response, Etna grinned widely, batting her eyelashes at me.

Well...I could use this opportunity to **** her to just go with the grodery shopping and go home. Etna was draining me dry, and not in the good way. On the other hand...I could ask her to drain me dry IN the good way and just hope she decides to go for the food anyway...
