Another day, another experiment for one Agnes Tachyon and her favorite guinea pig, Jungle Pocket. It started out as a new form of enrichment - she'd overheard some of the other Uma at Tracen Academy talking about a new slushie shop in the nearby mall. With how popular they made it sound, it would be a perfect people-watching spot. The addition of a slushie would add another layer of senses to the experience, which should help refresh her mind for new ways to improve her body.
When she mentioned it to Pokke during a dual training session, she had jumped at the idea and demanded to tag along. Which, naturally, sparked quite a few ideas in Tachyon, so she smiled and told her she'd find her when the time was right. So obviously she waited a few days in order to surprise Pokke when she dragged her off campus to get slushies.
Which leads them to now, sitting at a corner window table - the prime location for some people-watching. Though, currently, Tachyon is far more interested in watching Pokke than any of the many strangers milling about. Pokke is a curious creature, always trying to outdo Tachyon in any manner of way she can think of. Time to test how far that need extends, Tachyon thinks, barely keeping the smirk off of her face.
She takes up a brisk pace in drinking her slushie - noticable faster than anyone else she can see in the shop. She keeps watch of Pokke from the corner of her eye, feigning people-watching as she had previously discussed. It only takes a few seconds for Pokke to pause mid-sip and study Tachyon for a moment. Her face scrunches in concentration and she hunches over her cup slightly as she starts to drink even faster than Tachyon.
If her calculations are correct (and they most certainly are) this will end poorly for Pokke. The unknown factor is whether or not Pokke knows this, and if she does, will she do anything about it? With a slight smirk, Tachyon ups her pace just a bit and Pokke takes the bait. Within a few seconds Pokke is gasping and clutching at her head in pain. Delighted, Tachyon throws her head back and laughs.
"Oh, dear, bite off more than you can chew, Pokke? You know, I'm sure I can find a way to fix that troublesome little reaction for you! Just a little experiment, we could try later this evening!~" Tachyon says, leaning forward with a smirk.
Pokke just groans.
