"Well it's more I don't want to make you sit and listen to the entire story. You'd probably get bored and call me stupid." At least Junko could laugh at herself. "He asked me to marry him right before I'd been about to break up with him anyway, and apparently he had no idea our relationship was having problems..we blindsided each other." She shrugged, distracting herself with a nearby dress. Junko was trying to pretend it wasn't a big deal mostly for herself, it kept her from wanting to cry. "We'd talked about marriage and stuff...we even had our scarelings planned out. How many we wanted, who we hoped they would take after, names for whatever gender they ended up being..but since then there had been issues that he didn't notice, but I thought he was aware of." Not a big deal. Not a big deal. Not. A. Big. Deal.
When Hel called her stupid Junko's expression fell and she looked back at the ghoul like Hel was the stupid one. "Homeless after graduation. I can't live in the dorms when I'm no longer a student, stupid." That did sound fun though..traveling. The only traveling Junko had ever done was for field trips, staying with Tomoko's family and staying with Seiji's family. "So..nothing shocks you? Nothing?" Junko sounded skeptical. Something had to shock Hel..there had to be something.
Junko kind of wanted to find out now.

Hel snickered. Yeah…because that sounded about right. Sorry Junko, she liked you and all, but you weren’t a BFF or a bro…so odds were you didn’t get the full benefit of her attention span yet. Luckily the ghoul did keep it short and sweet…though her words sent Hel into a sudden fit of jealousy. “OH MY JACK!” She exclaimed, throwing her hands into the air. “Proposals are wasted on all you Jack damn ghouls!” She then pointed a finger at Junko from across the aisle…well, it was rather humorous. Hel pointed at Junko accusingly through a rack of sweaters. “Damn you!” She scowled. “I would put pumpkins in blenders if it meant a loved one would propose to me!”
The reaper groaned then, letting her head drop onto the rack.
She said nothing for a long time, except to reply back a “No, you are stupid.” She was silent for a moment longer, and then finally lifted her head, puffing out her cheeks. “Nothing shocks me.” She replied, pouting.

Junko honestly wasn't sure what to expect from Hel after she'd finally told her the gist of what had happened, so she was definitely surprised by the sudden shout. The futakuchi-onna gasped and took a step back away from Hel, her hair raising slightly with surprise. Wh..what? Hel wanted to be married? She blinked. "I..I'm sorry?" Would it help that if he had done it a year ago she would have said yes? Junko wasn't sure what to say to this, she'd never seen Hel so...whatever this was.
"Stop calling me stupid." Junko was demanding now. "Nothing. Absolutely nothing." The ghoul raised a brow and eyed the valkyrie suspiciously. "I don't believe you."

Hel just grumped some more, her cheeks puffed out as she finally pushed herself off of the rack and moved to look through some more clothes.
“I am calling you stupid because you are stupid.” She huffed, aggressively pushing some clothes around on the rack. She wasn’t quick to answer Junko’s skepticism. She supposed the biggest shocker she could receive anytime soon was Mac openly acknowledging and discussing the elephant in the room…or Gramps praising her for doing something smart or good without being patronizing…TWO THINGS SHE WAS NEVER BANKING ON. Oh wait…getting proposed to. THREE THINGS SHE WAS NEVER BANKING ON.
Because Hel figured if she had zero to no expectations, then there was no way she could be disappointed! It was a rather smart game plan, or so she thought. Very clever.
“Nothing.” She repeated.

Junko just stared. She said nothing at first, just watching Hel intently and giving nothing away on her face. Hel was claiming nothing could surprise her. Nothing at all. Not even startle her? Junko was finding herself in disbelief despite Hel's insistence.
Suddenly she grinned. "Right. Okay. Challenge accepted." Challenge? What challenge? Hel hadn't said anything about a challenge. This would be fun, she was going to try and find what Hel was hiding. There had to be something...there had to be. Junko wanted to find out what it was.
"I think I have what I'm going to get. How about you?"

Hel’s head snapped up, and she narrowed her gaze at the ghoul. “Challenge accepted?” She echoed, and then scoffed. “See? This is why you are stupid! There is no challenge to accept!” At the next question, Hel made a face, and then abandoned the clothes rack she was going through. She couldn’t find anything else she wanted right now, and being in a pouty mood wasn’t going to help…so she’d just leave with the dress for now.
“Ya, I am ready.”

Junko was still grinning, walking down the aisle until she could walk alongside Hel to the counter. "Oh yes, there is a challenge. You're stupid for not seeing it," Junko sang, playfully pinching one of Hel's cheeks. "Miss Pouty Faaaace~." Laughing, Junko let Hel get ahead of her. She only had the one thing while Junko's arms were full of clothes. It would just be easier.
"You seem tense, Hel. Are you all right?"

“ No.” Hel hissed. “You are still stupid for thinking there is one to see.” She just continued to give Junko an unimpressed glare, and she all too happily went ahead of her in line. She slapped down the seeds for the stupid Jack damn dress, and snatched her bag when it was offered to her, and then just stared at Junko flatly again as she insisted on teasing her. She then reached out and slapped the ghoul upside the side of her head.

Junko was giggling and trying not to laugh outright, paying for her clothes and accepting the bags with a cheerful thank you until Hel slapped her head. The ghoul squeaked, a long tendril of hair instinctively reaching out to coil itself around the ghoul's wrist in self defense. "What was that for?!"

After Hel was violent...she felt better. Funny how that worked out. A smirk pulled at her lips now, and she pulled her arm out of Junko's hair and walked right on out. "For being stupid." She replied and then cackled. Eight We can end here if you want!

"You're the stupid one!" Junko called out as Hel walked out of the store, huffing with annoyance and leaving shortly after the other ghoul. Stupid valkyrie. Lucyal THAT IS TOTALLY COOL, BRO
