QUICK DESCRIPTION: Nii faces the horrors of DOS, and gets rejected by Hwan once again.
NOTES: Hold chao. [hyperventalates] It's NOT a Gundam fic! And it's NOT in script form! Give a hooray to Nadia! It's even sorta fluffy, at least for me.

Nii grins, gritting his teeth in frustration. Pausing from his work, he leans back in his chair and takes a sip from his cup. Maybe if he glares at the screen long enough, it'll do what he wants it to. This is a simple case of mind over matter: the sheer power of his *will* will *force* the stubborn electronics into action.

He sighs. Glancing sideways, he eyes his co-workers, busilly typing away at their research. Roushi's so hooked up with wires and electrodes that he's practically glowing. And there's Hwan, a slight frown plastered to her face as she glances from scroll to screen to scroll again. Nii smirks, then turns back to his computer.
"Hey, Professor."
She glances up at him. "Is there something you need?" She doesn't sound too upset about the interruption, more bored than anything else.

"Only you, darling," he replies, smiling at the screen.
PASS? ****
Hwan sighs, audibly. "Please remember where you are, Nii-hakase. This is a workplace, not a bar." She sniffs.

He sits back again to take another sip. "No no, I wanted to ask your opinion something... perhaps a bit personal."
She blinks. "Alright...."
Nii looks at her over his shoulder. "What do you think of the research we do here? On combining youki and magic with human technology?"
The frown returns, perhaps slightly deeper. "What do I think of it?"
"Morally, I mean. After all, it *is* forbidden in most religious circles... just like the taboo of a youkai and a human's relationship. Rather mysterious, don't you think?"
Hwan turns to look at him.
PASS? ********
"Well... it-it's just our job. It's just research, to better our knowledge about how the world works." She pauses, seeming to assure herself. "It's just our job."

Another uncomfortable pause, at least for Hwan. Nii smiles. "Ah, well my question's been answered." He grins, putting his near-empty cup to his lips. "Your turn. Is the anything you'd like to ask me?"
PASS? *****
"Actually, yes." Nii turns, raising an eyebrow. Hwan takes a breath. "...Why do you always carry that rediculous stuffed rabbit around?"
"What?? What's wrong with Mister Bunny?!" Nii shouts, earning a startled glance from Roushi and nearly scaring Hwan out of her wits.
Rolling her eyes, she turns back to her scrolls and her work, leaving Nii to rant and cuss to himself in the background.
