Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa hasn't talked to Blue since the incident where she yelled at him and Tadase and she's been meaning to give apologies and ask questions and all that garbage she doesn't want to do but knows she has to do it eventually. If she just keeps quiet, just keeps her mouth shut and pretends nothing is wrong well...

That's why Scorn happened. She doesn't want that to ever happen again.

It occurs to her that Spark might want to come along with her. As far as she knows, Spark hasn't seen the Cross Mirror Room, or found out how to invade Blue's own little hidey hole.

She's waiting in her apartment, in front of a large mirror that she recently unstuck a lot of duct tape from because her idea of 'keeping Blue out' was duct-taping all the mirrors over.

Luckily, all the stickyness on the surface itself is cleaned. Some still remains on the frame.

Corvus is nestled on his roost typing away at a fully sized computer keyboard that's been monted off the roost. He appears to be playing some sort of free shooter game and dominating the competetion hilarously.

How many games does Corvus play anyways!?

Naomi Yomada has posed:
BORED!!! Good Grief is she bored!!! Naomi's grounding is more then half over now. She has run out of things to do to distract herself from the punishment. So when she got a call from Haruna, she was more then delighted to get out of the house and go visit her fellow Pretty Cure.

Fast forward about 20 minutes, There is a knock on Haruna's door. "Hello? Its umm, Naomi?" She pokes her head into the dorm and then walks in assuming she's gotten the go ahead.

The first thing she would notice is Corvus playing video games. She turns to glance at Lilac, "Don't get any ideas!" She giggles a little and moves to Haruna, "How are you today Haruna-chan?"

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa would had invited Naomi not too long ago. She let's Naomi into her and Hannah's apartment. (Hannah and Boris-kun aren't here right now.) She closes the door and sighs a bit as she motions to the mirror. "I'm going to apologize to Kami-sama." she says. "I figure you've probably haven't been to his little 'office' before so I figured you might wanna come along..."

"...and find out how to get there anyways." she says.

"First rule. You need a large mirror you can walk through." she motions over to large mirror against the wall. "I suggest you buy something like this. Also. It makes it easy for him to visit over." she says. "There's LOTS of standing mirrors in second hand shops you can get cheap." she says as she looks back to the mirror and stands in front of it.

"Now. Imagine where you want to go. You want 'Cross Mirror Room'." she says as she closes her eyes. "Think of a big blue room, with mirrors...." she says.

"Then jump in!" she says.

She steps aside. "You first. I know I can do it. But I wanna see you do it. This way if you bump your nose against glass I can take care of it." she smirks and crosses her arms a bit in front of her.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada smiles a little and looks at the giant mirror then back to Haruna, "Good for you. You should. We are all on the same team after all and its not good to be at odds with a teammate right?" She smiles brightly.

Then she does a double take a the mirror, "Wait, We gotta go through the mirror? Isn't this like that old story? Alice through the Looking Glass? I hope things don't get weird."

She thinks aloud softly, "Okay, Imagine a big blue room with mirrors." She shrugs. How is that supposed to work. She's never seen a big blue room with mirrors. Still, She's gotta try it. Her eyes close. "big blue room." She steps forwards and...

"OW!" She bumps her nose on the glass. Thankfully there is no damage. Her poor nose though does go numb. She wiggles it around and winces. "Okay. I'll try again!" This time she keeps focus and manages to walk right through the mirror.

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa winces and holds the mirror suddenly... she peeks at Naomi and nods. "Try again." she says. When Naomi jumps through, she looks back to Corvus. "Corvuuuus if Hannah comes back tell her where I went!". Corvus gives a thumbs up and then Haruna jumps in after Naomi.

They arrive through one of the many mirrors at the edges of a wide blue room. Specs of white dot the 'walls'-- though they seem fluid. Beyond the transulence, one can make out countless rolling green hills.

In the center, is a wide arc-like seat. Seat. There's Blue sitting in the center. He's reading a book.

Naomi may have been the first in but Haruna is the first to open her big fat mouth.

"Baka-sama!" she says loudly! /Baka-sama!?/.

"...Didn't you cover over your mirrors, Haruna." he asks a little matter of factly, as he lowers the book.

"Hi Naomi. How are you?" he asks, not giving Haruna the same pleasent demeanor- for now.

Haruna hrmphs and crosses her arms.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada's eyes go wide as she looks around the utterly massive room. The mirrors. ALL the mirrors. The place is amazing. she simply looks around taking in the amazing view. She smiles and notes Blue sitting there. Yeah this is so awesome!!!! She is just about to say something when...

Naomi just facepalms at the rather rude greeting Haruna gives. She shakes her head. "Hello Blue-sama. How are you doing?"

The younger of the two visitors sighs and speaks up. "Listen, I know you both have had a pretty rough disagreement. We are on the same side though. That means we gotta stick together. Being cold towards each other won't help fix anything." She states trying to help. She is definitely in over her head.

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Blue is sweet and and kind sounding as ever. "It's going well. Thank you. I was reading." he insists. The book seems to be in some language other than English or Japaense. He places it down next to a small box on the seat with him. He clasps his arms. "What can I do for you?" he asks.

Haruna Kurosawa, meanwhile, has her arms crossed. "....should had brought Aki with me..." she mutters. She sighs.

"Look..." she says as she mutters around Naomi and sighs.

"Right.. Naomi-chan, I know. Okay?" she says as she frumps and sits down on the floor.

"I'm here to apologize." she says. "Like not to apologize for being in love with Hannah-chan. Sorry. I'm not changing that, or 'fixing' it." she says sternly with a harder frown. "But I'm sorry for the way I acted and took the news n' stuff..." she says as she sort of twiddles her thumbs in front of her.

She at least seems honest. It's more she's acting shameful. Not making eye contact. The whole nine yards when someone has to admit they were wrong about something.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada gets out of the way then. "Sorry." She states as she looks closely at one of the mirrors. She simply smiles at her own reflection. Its rare to see herself without being covered in soot.

When Blue speaks up to her she smiles a little, "oh Haruna-chan thought it would be for the best if I learned how to get here and stuff. Also I had a few more questions. Oh and I was supposed to ask you about a cure line? I umm, I think it's like a phone or something."

Then she hears Haruna's speak. She goes quiet so her and Blue can speak.

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Blue looks over to Naomi, and raises his brow a bit. "I can answer questions." he says. "As much as I am able, anyways." he says. "Oh, a Cure Line. Do you want one. It's a big responsibility." he says softly. "To talk to others that may ask for your help." he says softly to Naomi. "Are you sure you're ready for it?" he asks.

He looks over to Haruna and growns more somber. Sad? Serious? Mad? It's hard to tell for Blue. He's usually at least wears the facade of happiness. "Haruna. I wish you'd reconsider. You did a lot of good, but it's hard to trust you with some of the company you keep." he says.

She crosses her arms and frowns. "Look... yeah. Okay. I know. Hannah and Riventon, not exactly the nicest people sometimes. But... they kept me safe and protected when I had nowhere to go.. and they were the first friends I ever had besides my sister..." she says quietly. "I can't just... cut them out of my life..." she says quietly.

She sort of sighs and just shakes her head and looks back up over to Naomi and back over to Blue.

Blue seems to be mulling this over before he talks. "I still don't agree on some points." he says.

Haruna sighs and just shrugs and falls back to her back.

"Right. I need to.. get a Cure Line. To Replace my Virtue Phone. At least." then she sits up. "OH! Right. Blue-sama, have you talked to Naomi about Virtue yet!?" she asks.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada looks at the blue haired man and smiles, "I think I can handle it. Blue-sama, Its a learning experience, thats for sure! I've met the generals around here save for Oresky. I've fought them and oddly enough, I kinda enjoy it? Is that wrong? I mean I get to help people to be happy, I get to whip up on terribads and I've made new friends too through this! I definitely think I'm ready for that responsibility."

She then looks between Blue and Haruna. She gets an idea and smiles to Blue, "Would it help if Haruna-chan had a friend who could help her out if she starts slipping? I could help out like that!!" She beams happily.

"Virtue? What is that?"

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa seems to take some form of offense. "Hey! I don't need a minder....and I got Aki-chan if I need help." she crosses her arms with a hrmph.

Blue seems to disagree. "I think it's a good idea. In fact. It'd ease my worries a bit." he insists.

Haruna Kurosawa hrmps and keeps her arms crossed. "/Fine/." she says. Then she blinks at Naomi, and smiles a lot. "Virtue! They're a bunch of people who do good things, Naomi." she smiles. "Magical Girls and Boys like you." she says.

A pause.

"I kind of quit because they wanted me to abandon Hannah-chan." she says softly. "Same deal.. n' all that." she says softly. "They didn't kick me out. Just... you know?" she says. "Didn't give em the chance to." she smirks.

Blue sighs and produces two pink-like smartphones. He hands one to Naomi and one to Haruna. Haruna takes hers and taps the screen. "Alright..." she says as she slides it into her pocket.

"Please don't take it apart, Naomi." he says wryly, almost jokingly. "It's magic. It'll break if you open it." he says.

Haruna Kurosawa nods matter of factly.

"...OH! Right." she says. "Um..Naomi, you ask your questions first." she says.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada frowns and winces, "I didn't mean it like that Haruna. Think of what I'd be doing as like a spotter for a bodybuilder. Most of the time I'd not have to do anything but if things go bad I just would step in and help. I'm not a baby sitter or anything. Just a friend and fellow pretty cure who wants to make sure we don't fight each other as much as we fight the Phantom Empire."

She listens to what Virtue is and she gives a little smile, "Oh that sounds really cool. Helping people is a really good thing. I offered to help out my friend Sayaka-chan. She's helped me out a lot. She was there when I first became Cure Spark! If I can help more people, That would be awesome."

Then the cure line is given to her. The second she has it in hand she is already investigating it. Checking out the seams and exploring how it works. "Oh! Umm... Okay... Sorry. I was just curious." She quickly puts the cure line away. She may have actually been considering taking the thing apart!

"Well umm... I guess my first question is about this place. It is really cool. Umm, Haruna-chan told me you could go anywhere from here. How does that work? I mean, It would be awesome to be able to see different places like that."

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Blue seems to think for a moment, before he opens his mouth. "They'll take you where your heart wants to go. You use them the same way you'd use the mirror to get here. Keep in mind. That doesn't work with other mirrors. Just these here. Also. Don't go anywhere you won't get a return mirror." he insists.

Haruna Kurosawa remains sitting on the floor as she frumps and listens. "One time, Suzu-chan and Victory ended up in Germany!" she beams. "Suzu-chan's device knew German, it was silly." she says.

Then a pause. "Oh. Right, Kami-sama, I have a question." she says softly. "Um. When Hannah. Was possessed by that sword, I got these wings n' stuff like an angel and used some sort of weird power to fix her-- but it wasn't a PreCard or anything. What was that?" she asks.

Blue seems to grow a little serious suddenly. "...did I do someting wrong?" Haruna asks. Blue stands up and walks over to where Haruna is sitting and holds his hand out. "Haruna, may I please see your PreChanMirror?" he asks softly.

Haruna Kurosawa frowns. "Why?" there's a pause there. Blue talks. "I just need to see something. I promise." he says.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada smiles and quickly moves to one of the mirrors and looks at it. "May I try?" She asks curiously. Part of her wants to just go but at least she is asking. She also has stopped trying to figure out how to take apart the cure line!

Then she hears what Haruna says about the weird transformation. She turns around and listens carefully. If it happened to Haruna it could happen to her too! She doesn't want anything bad to happen after all.

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa hesitantly hands her mirror over. Blue looks at it for a bit- scanning, maybe seeing something the other two can't, before he hands it back softly. "You activated your Super Happiness form. I'd say I was surprised but for some reason I'm not." he says with a wry expression. "The circumstances for using that are specific. Different things make different people happy. You'll have to figure out your own trigger, Haruna. I can't 'teach' you how to use it again." he says. "Not every Cure reaches that stage." he says a little.

Haruna looks questioningly down at her mirror before she puts it back into her pocket. "...Huh. Okay." she says softly. Now she feels odd and weird, and it shows on her unsure face.

Naomi talks up. "I wouldn't use it now, unless you're going someplace nearby, Naomi. Really. I try to disuade Cures from misusing the mirrors. Bad things can come of selfish use of things like this." he says warningly.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada frowns and nods, "Alright. No problem. I was just curious." She moves back to a seat and plops down. She gets out her cure line and just starts looking over it again. Yup back to exploring it without taking it apart even if she REALLY wants to.

"I guess the next question is, what should I do to improve? I mean, I really like being a Precure and I know its super dangerous and stuff. I don't want to be more of a target for Phantom and stuff. I promised Haruna that if I encounter him I will run with one exception. If There is someone elses life in danger I will not abandon them to be sealed forever in a mirror or worse by that guy. I can't. Blue-sama, I can't put my life above other peoples like that." She frowns and shakes kes her head.

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa answers this even though she wasn't asked. "Get into lots of fights!" a pause. "And make some friends!"

Blue sighs and shakes his head. "Sadly. She's right. Experience. Make some non-Cure friends to help you. Learn to fight other creatures, too. Not just Terriabds. Expand your knowledge." he says softly. "Phantom knows how to fight Precure on a scale that a lot others can't- but he has trouble with others. They'll throw him off. That's how Cure Victory handled him. The most you can do is make it not worth his time or energy. He'll stop on his own accord." he says.

Haruna Kurosawa nods matter of factly. "I'm afraid of fighting him next. He has a /grudge/ now with me."

Blue nods a little. "Haruna and her friends rescued her sister. I didn't think it was possible to come back from that place- but the circumstances were special."

Haruna nods matter of factly. "...couldn't just rescue anyone. Only reason I was able to bring my sister out of that was 'cuz of my bond with her..." she says quietly.

"...gonna go rescue all those other Cures someday." she says more silently.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada thinks a little. "So pick fights with stuff and make friends. That sounds like a blast and a half." She smiles, "I've not really fought much beyond the Terribads, save for a couple magical girls who were trying to hurt some low end thugs. Who uses their powers to attack mundanes?" She shakes her head. "A friend and I fought with them and stopped them but I think I made some enemies."

She considers. "Oh! I've been making friends! Its fun! I've been learning new things and even found something to do that helps me with my passion! I made friends with one, maybe two, puella magi? I think thats what Sayaka-senpai said they were. Also I met one of those Chara ones who have the really cute little people fairy thingies. He taught me a little of how to dance! He pointed me to some websites so I can learn to dance! Its fun! It helps so much." She is clearly excited about it.

She then thinks a few moments, "That sounds really bad. How many others were there? I mean, to have cures all trapped like that? Its horrible."

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Blue frowns. "Sometimes people think they're doing the right thing. Sometime's they're misled. Sometimes people just like sowing misfortune. There's countless reasons why someone might hurt people with thier power, instead of help then." he says silently.

Haruna Kurosawa talks for Blue. Haruna's been there. "Hundreads... maybe a Thousand, Naomi. It's really bad. That place. Is.. he calls it the 'Precure Graveyard'. There's just mirrors and mirrors for miles." she says. "The place is... it's like a low-magic zone. Something is /wrong/ there." she says.

Blue nods a little. "I can't get there easily myself. I wasn't even the one who got them there. I know where it is, now. But that doesn't help me much." he says.

She frowns. "It was Hannah! Hannah-chan figured out how to dimensional transfer there." she says with a hrmph! "She's the one who came with me and-- and fought with me and got us all home again!" she says clearly grumpy about things still.

She'll be grumpy about the love thing for a while. Yeah.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada jaw drops. She frowns deeply and tears fill her eyes. "So many. And Phantom did all that? Why? Its horrible! Why would he... I don't care. We have to help those girls." She states firmly. She quietly begins mulling things over a bit.

After a few minutes of silence "Maybe I can work with Hannah and make a device that lets us get there more easily. I would never go alone but, leaving them there... There are people that care about them. Those cures have families who probably think they ran away or were kidnapped or worse."

The rookie just shakes her head. She's just gotten a rather rough awakenign about how dangerous her new life is. Even more intense then just knowing about what kind of jerk Phantom is.

She wipes her eyes. "Its okay. Its alright. I am going to do what you said. I'm going to learn, I'm going to experience things and I am going to find happiness in everything I can. When the time comes, We are going to save them... Even if I have to wish it."

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa frowns. "I thought Aki was dead. Died in that fire..." she mutters. "So I get that." she says softly. She takes a deep sigh, and then shakes her head. "No, you shouldn't work with Hannah-chan, Naomi. I'll introduce you, but she works for people who'll use your work for other things too. Not nice things. I don't want that kind of responsibility on your head..." she says softly.

"--but it's your choice." she says. "If you really wanna work with Eclipse, that's your bussiness, but 'magical tech' is a lot different from 'a boombox'." she smirks. "I'd leave it to those with the Midchildian magic." she says. "'Device Users'."

Blue frowns. "Please do not go work for Eclipse." he offers.

Haruna Kurosawa frowns and crosses her arms grumpily again.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada shakes her head, "I never said I was going to work with anyone. If I could find out what she knows without showing what I think I could do with it then, I could create that sort of thing without them ever knowing what I was doing. After all I'm just a cute little girl who wouldn't know the first thing about making anything right." She bats her eyes cutely while twirling her twin tails.

"Seriously though, Eclipse sounds like trouble. I think I'd be a better fit with that Virtue place. Still, I want to work with you, Haruna-chan. We are both Cures and if fighting beside Cure Sunny and beside you taught me anything its that we are a lot stronger together then alone. Not to mention when I'm not blinding my teammates!" She blushes and giggles over that one.

She reaches out and takes Haruna's hand and smiles to her. "Its okay!"

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa ohs! "You met Cure Sunny! She's um. Not one of Blue-sama's Cures, for the record! She's one of Marchenland's Cures!". She does take Naomi's hand, a short squeeze, then a release. She crosses her arms a bit after then.

Blue talks. "Not every Cure is one of mine." he says. "Other magical worlds have thier own Cures. Sunny protects Marchenland. Marchenland is where all the characters in fairy tales live." he offers.

Haruna Kurosawa nods matter of factly. "Lots of strange things like that." she says. "...did you know there's a Desert Kingdom!?" she says with wide eyes. "I wanna goooooo." she hrmphs and crosses her arms. "But traveling across dimensions is so hard and dangerous."

Blue nods matter of factly. "Many fairies risk thier lives coming to Earth to seek thier Pretty Cures here on Earth." he offers. "Just making the trip."

"Anyways... Cure Sunny was there... when.." she sort of bites her lip. "When I was Scorn. It's how I know her. I miss her, haven't seen her around a lot." she says softly.

Blue nods. "Though just because you 'come from different places' doesn't mean you're any different. All Pretty Cure share a same basic creed and power." he offers.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
"Well we gave Hosshiwa a little message she won't forget soon. Hopefully. Either that or I annoyed her enough to have a grudge. Either way what fun!" Naomi actually laughs about the idea of annoying that general so bad. "I was at a volleyball game and Hosshiwa was upset because the concession stand didn't carry all the sweets she wanted. Cure Sunny was there and we teamed up. We beat up on the terribad. She said she wants to team up some more. I haven't seen her since though. I guess she got called back to the Marchenland?"

Her attention goes to Blue. I have an important question. The love I have for my family is my biggest motivation for being a Precure. I know that they are there for me and love me. I know that when I fight I am protecting them too. If that is true, then why is it a big deal to fall in love. Two people in love become a very powerful force and can do a whole lot of good. Why is it such a big deal to fall in love?"

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Blue shakes his head. "Thier team comes from Earth. She's probably just busy. Marchenland is under seige, not a pleasent place to be right now, honestly." he frowns. Haruna nods matter of factly.

Then Naomi asks the question probably countless Pretty Cure has asked.

'Why can't I fall in love?'.

"Naomi." he says softly. "Sometimes, a God has his reasons for rules he can't tell you. I can assure you and promise you that I have a reason for such a rule." he says kindly as he can offer it.

'Because God Said So.'

Haruna sighs and rolls her eyes as she gets to her feet. "I'm leaving." she says softly. "Come on Naomi, let's go get some ice cream or something. I promised Corvus-chan anyways~" she says.

/Corvus-chan/.

Naomi Yomada has posed:
Naomi Yomada looks at Blue and frowns, "Not good enough, Blue-Sama. For a rule like that which causes a girl to not follow their own nature there has to be something more then 'because I told you so.'" She frowns and stands up. "I will not run from love because of 'I said so'. I won't run towards it either. If I fall in love though, then we will deal with it." She smiles a little.

Her attention goes to Haruna and nods, "Okay. Ice cream sounds yummy! I am sure Lilac will enjoy some of that too. Its been too hot lately and she eats it too fast!" With that she moves along with Haruna and right out the mirror back to her room.
