Noemi felt odd.
She almost felt sick, or maybe...maybe it was that time. Ah she should've realized sooner. Everything seem to be a big deal. She already dealt with a life tech snapping at her for accidentally putting the techs beaker in the wrong spot. Instead of being scared she felt...irritated.
It wasn't her fault she didn't see the label! And...And it wasn't her fault when she bumped into another Mist hunter with all their paperwork! They were walking without looking! Texting on their phone.
She was not in the wrong here!
Oh but she felt so irritated, and her normal nervous expression was drawn tight in angeeeeeeer.

It was unusual for Jeremy to feel irritated. He had actively spend the last year of his life being the total opposite of it, and managed to avoid any sort of lasting negativity. Until, of course, today. When he dropped his sandwich on the floor, he felt annoyed. When he went to the cafeteria and saw someone else where he usually sat, he felt his eyebrow twitch. Everything he had become since he last woke up was threatening to crumble, and he didn't like it; actually, it made him feel even more annoyed.
So he did what he always did, and pretended otherwise.
It was harder than it sounded.
"...Mimi!" He called, his voice pitching happily as he raised his arm to wave her over. Not that he really needed to, because it didn't matter if she came to him - he always went to her. Always. Today was no different, and he had no qualms about getting as close as always.
"Mimi, your face is all pinched." He chuckled, reaching out to lightly tug on one of her cheeks, as if it would loosen her expression.

She didn't even have time to escape from Jeremy pinching her cheeks and she allowed it for...10 seconds before the irritation settled in and she moved her hands to slap his away. Something she would never usually do.
"Stop that." She rubbed her cheek, which was a little sore now, "Why do you do that?" She too steps away from her because she didn't want his hugs or anything like that. "I don't like when you pinch my cheeks, It hurts. p...Please don't do it again." She didn't mean to sound...mean! It just...She didn't want touches and...
"Did you need something?" She gave him a sort of stare, if he needed nothing then she would leave.

Jeremy's golden eyes widened in brief surprise as Noemi slapped his hands away, leaving them to hang useless and frozen in the air by her face. When she stepped back though, something flashed across his features - something that didn't belong - before a smile replaced it, and he closed his eyes to make himself look cheerful, and also to cut off his view of the woman, if only for a moment.
"Just your cheery company." He offered, his voice forced and with an edge that, like that flash of emotion he had prior, simply did not belong. "Which I see is as bright and charming as ever." The corners of his lips lifted into a smile that bared too much teeth to be friendly.

Noemi could see it. She knew the minute she had done something wrong. Any other day, it would've been followed by an apology, multiple ones even. And then she would've done her best to make the sun hunter feel better.
But today, the irritation was growing. She felt angry, upset. For no reason and a big reason all together.
"That's a lie." She stated, "I'm not cheerful, or cheery or bright or charming. Stop telling stupid lies." She tilted her chin, "Did you come here to corner me again? And try to make me feel stupid?" She tried to move past him, "I have...have things I need to do, and you're in my way."

Jeremy's fox-eyed smile remained in place as she first accused him of lying to her, and that was when he reached up to tap the side of his nose. Ding ding ding, the gesture implied - she was correct.
"How rude ~ Are you done?" He sighed out, irritated by her rantings and exhausted with her lack of backbone. "You're no fun when you're like this~" The blonde man keened out, folding his arms behind his head as he leaned to the side, as animated as ever.
"What use are you, then?" He asked, the normal cheer in his voice all but gone.

She wasn't stupid, she'd like to think, so when he tapped his noise, she could mentally hear the ding of a prize win. Her shoulders stiffen, her chin raising to meet his gaze, because even though she was shorter, she would prove her point.
"It's..not rude. It's the truth." Unlike Jeremy, she wouldn't blatantly lie. "I'm...I'm not here for your amusement." She felt very small now, was that how Jeremy saw her? Someone he could just harass and annoy because it was fun? Funny? She crossed her arms to her sides.
His voice changed, and she couldn't stop herself from flinching at his harsh question.
"I'm..I'm a ton of use!" She murmured quietly, instead of speaking up like she really wanted. She was angry, but deep down she was really scared. So scared. "You don't...don't get..." She clutched her elbows tightly into her, turning herself into herself. Defense. Even angry, it was defense. "don't get to decide that."

"And who does get to decide that? You?" Jeremy let out a low, amused breath. "How useful someone is, is something other people decide about you." He clarified for her, his harsh words still thinly veiled with cheer.
"But, by all means." The man, whose smile had not yet faded, took a very obvious step to the side, swinging one arm out slowly to gesture to the hallway behind him. "Go make yourself feel better."

"Yes!" She didn't move past him, her voice growing a little louder now. A little more desperate. Jeremy was being rude, but underneath it all. She was seeing a side of him that was scary. That worried her.
"I get..I get to decide, by the things I do! What to do you do Jeremy?" She reached up and poked him in the chest. "What makes you useful to call me useless? What makes you think you can tell..tell me what I am?"
She reached over and shoved both her hands in his pockets and pulled out whatever candy he had hiding there. Using it to lure people, trap people. The b*****d. She held them up in front of his face. "See! SEE! This is what you do! You just walk...walk around and try to just lure people with your candy and you just.." Like this was the biggest deal. Just to further piss him off and for revenge for calling useless. She open the candy, watching his face and ate it all.
She ate it all.
In front of him.
