- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama whimpered weakly, staring up at the youma. "S-stop," she said softly, shaking weakly as she clutched the gem over her chest. The weird wind creature, with blades for hands, had her cornered. She wanted to transform, but...
They were in the middle of the school. Plenty of kids had already been attacked and drained. But there were still more awake. More who were watching, seeing everything. She'd tried to escape so she could get somewhere safe to hide, but it hadn't worked. She hadn't been able to get out of sight in order to transform. She'd been so sure magical girls would pop up by now and DEAL with this.
She let out a shriek when the creature slashed and she fell to her stomach, deep gouges appearing in the tree. No no no! she had to transform, she had to! She was going to DIE otherwise! Why was the monster picking on her?! WHY?!
- Akane Hino has posed:
Unmei is in a bit of trouble. A youma attacking, and she needs to transform. Unfortunately, that youma seems to be preoccupied on keeping Unmei preoccupied, meaning that Unmei is in a bit of a dilemma here. Luckily, there's help on its way!
"Cheer up, the sun is shining on you!"
That voice, could it be?
Indeed, Cure Sunny has arrived in the area, and is appearing with a blast of her sun power, hoping to blind and/or stun the youma long enough for Unmei to transform. "I'll hold it off, don't worry!" Sunny says with a cheerful smile. "The sun's shining, and everything's gonna be all right!"
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru is far less eloquent as she shows up, leading the way with the loud report of one of her flintlocks the one trimmed in orange which launches a spear of fire towards the creature. Spinning it by it's handle, she holsters it, hefts the massive black sword over her shoulder and points at the Youma, calling out through her menpo which has taken the form of traditional mask for once! Unfortunately it's it neon orange and chrome silver, but it's a start! "Easy there!" Before launching herself forward on a pillar of earth.
Landing heavily, she hefts the sword out, using it's reach to try and force the youma back, her footwork moving to put herself between the creature and the students! Particularly the ones most at risk. Every step sounds heavy, matched by the clacking of lacquered armor. "Get behind me." She says with a quick look to Unmei, "I'll protect you." She continues before her stance changes.
- Unmei has posed:
The youma is blinded by sudden light! Gosh darn sunlight right in the eyes! It rawrs, covering its face for a moment. Then someone sends a bullet into it! Ow! It stumbles back. The the sword comes out and it's sent stumbling back as it awkwardly tries to parry the sword. Haku had reach on it, but each strike of its swords made cutting winds shoot out, slashing at her if she didn't try to move.
Unmei, meanwhile, just stared with wide eyes. "Cure Sunny?" she said again. Wait. She was being SAVED? Her cheeks turned bright red as she looked between the two of them. Wait, actual magical girls! They were saving her! Why were they--
Oh. Wait. they didn't know she was a villain. Yet. Right. She supposed that helped.
- Akane Hino has posed:
Noticing Hakuomaru landing with a heroic stance that Cure Sunny seems to recognize, the Precure smiles even more. "It seems there's backup here!" She looks to Unmei and nods. "You can get to someplace safe now, we'll protect you!" Meanwhile, she starts juggling balls made of sunlight power and then tosses them at the youma rapidly. "Catch these, you foul being! You try to darken us, but we will lighten things up!"
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru tends to do the whole savior thing either way if they're crying for help! That's what they're supposed to do right? That's how she figures it anyway. She kicks her foot into the ground, creating a curved wall of earth appears before her before turning her shoulder towards where the blades were coming from to let her armor take anything that makes it through. As before, she seems to put herself and her defenses between herself and any non-magical sorts! (That she knows of at least!)
Once the attack is over, she rears back and plants her foot into the barrier, kicking it outward in a shower of stone shards while replying to Sunny! "Backup? I guess you did beat me here! Can you take care of it? I can protect them as they get away!" She's a lot less flowery! Which anyone nearby would hear her muttering about working on it. There's half murmurs of talking about protecting dreams, but does that apply here? She seems to be splitting her focus just a touch.
- Unmei has posed:
The youma was hit by the sunny balls and sent toppling back with a roar, rolling head over feet backwards. Then the shower of stone shards hits the creature, making it howl in pain, thrashing its hands about.
Unmei, meanwhile, was staring with stars for eyes. "Oh my gosh, that's her sunlight power, it's the real Cure Sunny! Oh my gosh oh my gosh!" Unmei shrieked, practically hopping up and down. "I can't believe it, she's real, she's actually here and protecting me this is the most awesome thing ever!" Yeah, she's not going anywhere.
- Akane Hino has posed:
Normally Cure Sunny would be telling Unmei to calm down, because now is not the time to be cheering for her or doing things like that. But in a case like this, Sunny must keep her focus on the youma itself. She has it weakened thanks to Hakuomaru's assistance, and decides that it's time to give it a bit more of a powerful hit in hopes of weakening it further, if not destroying it entirely.
"The power of the sun is mine! I shall restore light to your being!" Sunny yells as she raises both hands to gather the power of the sun into them. Then she shoots forth the power of the sun in a large beam at the youma.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru is regretting that her armor doesn't come with a pair of sunglasses at this moment and there's a mental note to maybe look into the idea later! Checking over her shoulder at the cheering, she says, "Unm- settle down and keep your head down, it's dangerous!" She makes an annoyed sound after, having almost given away the name, something she's worried may make for some awkward questions.
Still, with Sunny attempting to plasma ball the youma, she hefts her sword up and charges past the creature, stopping with a slide before using the handle of her sword, momentum and power to bash the thing towards the ball of light! Sure she may singe her armor and hair a bit, but that's something she can worry about later! Which seems to be a recurring theme of both her pastlife and her current one!
- Unmei has posed:
The youma stumbles back and then stumbles forward, the lights from one side striking it in the face, then the sword in the back sending it flying forward, deeper into the flurry of orbs of light! It lets out one final roar as the light envelops it, before exploding in a burst of wind. When the winds die down, the monster is gone! Instead a kid is there, collapsed on the ground. He looked like one of the kids from the track team, actually.
All around them, people were starting to get that... look. That 'I just saw magic' look as their minds tried to figure out what happened. Except for Unmei. Who had been flung back into the wall she'd been backed into and had slidden down it, thanks to the winds. However... she still stared up with wide, wonder filled eyes. "Oh my gosh oh my gosh! Can... can i have your autographs?" she asked, staring.
- Akane Hino has posed:
Autographs? At a time like this? You must be joking!
However, Cure Sunny is the optimistic and positive type, meaning she doesn't mind giving an autograph. "All right, here you go!" She says with a cheerful smile as she takes whatever Unmei has that she wants autographed and signs it for her. "Take good care of this, all right? It's priceless with my signature on it!" She giggles at that last part.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru looks around at the crowd and then at Unmei, then at the others again. She's never actually taken the time to examine the crowd of these kind of things! The request for an autograph gets a baffled, "Huwah?" from the girl, muffled and distorted by the mask. "Uh- sure?" Her signature is met as well, done in a simulacrum of the original Hakuomaru's autograph! Which means it's sloppy, smudged by her hand and then hastily attempted to be fixed a few times before giving up and adding a small apology to the side. What, she's trying to do brush strokes in armor! Don't ask where the brush came from!
To Sunny, she offers a polite, short bow and a grin hidden away, "Thanks for the help. Uh, do we want to split the duties up on checking on them or just uh... Wander off and do it m- the other way?"
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama sqweed with delight as she hugged her autograph book to her chest. "Yes yes yessss! I know I'd meet you eventually! And I knew you were real! That girl made fun of me and said she was you but I knew she wasn't a-and I knew I'd meet you eventually!" she practically shrieked as she rocked back and forth, staring up with so much excitement.
And then... "And I don't know who you are but you're so cool and awesome and you really make me reconsider the whole katana versus long sword thing eeeee!" she shrieked, rocking back and forth with excitement.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru looks around awkwardly as she's left alone! She plants her sword in the ground next to her and works her gloves free, working her fingers a few times. She then wonders if she shouldn't have done that with the signature in the first place. "I tol- know we're real" She scowls, glad for the mask. She can totally blame those slips on that sort of thing. Besides she's sure Unmei's fangirling hard enough she won't catch it, right?
Then there's the comment about the katana vs longsword thing. "I uh... back then used a masakari or the naginata." She taps her chin, the mask at least and adds, "At some point that he won't tell me about, we switched to this giant thing. It's got some enchantments in it, but I don't know why he picked it." Then she trails off and murmurs, "Ignore that."
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama nodded, giving the biggest grin ever. "Oh my gosh oh my gosh you're even talking to me! Eeeee! I should get attacked more often! Ohhhh, Yuzu isn't going to believe this! Oh, oh! You should meet my friend, she--" Then paused. "Oh, wait, no, I guess you're all... magical and stuff. You can't go off meeting random people, can you? Sorry. A-am... I bothering you?" she asked sheepishly. "I-I'm sorry my first real meeting face to face with a magical girl and I'm messing it up gahhhhh!" Bonked herself lightly on the head.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru reaches out in a manner that makes one think she's familiar with the girl at this point and tries to stop her from bonking herself on the head while saying softly, "Stop that, it's fine it's fine." There's a brief pause and she says, "I don't usually go out of my way to meet other magical sorts. It's hard to guess right?" There's a murmured, "Parties aside" then she quickly shakes her head. "No, you're not bothering me though, never would say that."
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama nodded, grinning wide. "Y-you should meet her if you get the chance she's the most awesome and cool and amazing and oh my gosh is that a real sword can you tell me your origin story is there a you line do you have books where can I get them oh my gosh where do your powers come from, is it love? Ibet it's love! OH MY GOSH EEEEEEE!"
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru listens quietly, not wanting to quite leave the lonely girl on her own, but preferring to be doing this as herself. Her other self. Her not borrowing powers from herself self. She kind of zones out as she tries to figure out how that all works before eventually holding her hands up, "I don't have books. Maybe Akashimaru? I mean neither of us do that sort of thing?" Beat, "Aagh I forgot to take a picture of the youm-" beat, "My powers are more for dreams? Like protecting them and encouraging them?" She stops, feeling a touch silly. There's a faint grin when she gets an idea to tease the poor girl though! She's about to ask something, then stops, not wanting to tease her that way. This means she kind of awkwardly zones out again though.
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blinked a few times. "You... protect dreams? Like, actual dreams like when we sleep? Or like... our hopes and dreams?" she asked with the biggest grin, staring at her with the widest eyes. "Akashimaru? Is that where your powers are from? Can you spell that for me? I'm going to totally google it when I get home." She took out her phone and started adding to the features.
"Oh my gosh Yuzu is NEVER going to believe this, it's sooooo cool! You're so awesome and nice and kind! You'd absolutely love Yuzu, she's the same way! Well, except she's not magic." She wiggled in place, so excited.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru tilts her head to the side and says, "Uh, yes?" To the question about protecting dreams and sleep and the hopes and dreams part. They're kind of one in the same sometimes with how they act! "Uh, he was-... she? I don't think you'll find much, he was a long dead ronin." Beat, "Uh you didn't hear that from me." Scowl, she's terrible at this, she should really flee!
She sighs, mostly relying on the mask to hide it. "I uh, don't know if I'll have the chance to meet her?" She sounds shakey! "I uh, you're free to tell her that you met us though? I'm sure she'd find it funny?" Beat, "Interesting!" There's a few more moments delay and she says, "You do seem rather close, happy's probably the right one right?" She's so terrible at this.
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama nods rabidly, glancing down to the autograph and nodding even more. "Y-yeah! I ummmm, I'll see what I can find then! he seems really cool!" she said with a big smile.
"Well, you should. Whenever you go into one of your non-magical girl states, go to one of her concerts, she's amazing! And cool and pretty and she's a lesbian if you like that kind of thing, I mean, if you're single she could totally become your love interest! All magical girls need one, right?"
Oh gosh things were going to go down hill fast from here. "And I'll tell her all about you! And we are close! she's my best friend in the whole world! She doesn't yell or scream at me and she's always kind and giving and... way, way better than someone like me deserves. A hundred times better..."
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru kind of just stares at the gushing from Unmei. There's a protracted silence, where the only sound is the muffled breathing of her mask. Unmei may even swear she'd hear Hakuomaru say something like not gushing all of her details out like that. Does she mean Yuzu's or hers though? The fact that Unmei's trying to pair her up is amusing though. She starts to tease her about it, then stops quickly again as Unmei continues on.
"Is it really surprising to have a good friend Un-miss?" Did she just tap her armored headband against the handle of her sword.
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blinked a few times, her eyes going off to the side. "Yes. It is. Good people... have good friends... bad people... have bad ones. That's just the way it works," she mumbled softly. She then urked and shook her head. "N-no! Bad!" she tapped her cheeks. "Bad bad bad! No moping in front of the magical girl! T-thank you so much for saving me! Please, if you ever get the chance, meet Yuzu! She's the coolest! And, ummm... I hope i get a chance to meet you again! Like this!"
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru hesitates and asks, "Why do you think you're a bad person?" That's a bit more pointed than she'd normally go for, but the way Unmei's acting, that seems like a poignant question. One that she may or may not use to try and help out on either side! She looks around, murmuring, "I... should probably be going soon though." Noting that she is totally standing around a crowded school in armor. With a sword and two old samurai guns!
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blinked a few times and crossed her arms, chewing on her lower lip for a moment. She glanced up at Haku. There was a lot of pain and confusion there. "I... I just... am," she mumbled softly. "I hope we can be friends though. I... I thank you for saving me. If I ever get the chance to return the favor... I will."
She smiled up at her. "And, ummm, b-bye. Thank you." She hugged the book to her chest.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Hakuomaru reaches out and pokes the girl's forehead and says, "Then do your best to be a better person. You've got friends that will support you right?" She's pretty sure the girl made friends at the party aside from her right? "Ask for help, that's the best thing you can do. I bet Yuzuki would help." She holds her hands up and says, "I do need to go though! Sorry!" She turns and launches into the air with a pillar of earth, literally flinging herself away! Fleeee!
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama wrapped her arms around herself, chewing on her lower lip. She watched the girl leave and... once she was gone...
"There's no one who can help me though, is there, Pin?"
'no, there's not. You almost told her. If she'd found out, she might have cut you down.'
She nodded. "I know."
'And even if they could... would you give up your dreams for it? Would you give up being you?'
"... I'd rather die." She then blinked and shook her head, running off to find yuzu and... the moment she did... "YUZU YUZU!" she practically TACKLED her!" Look, look! I got some autographs! Cure sunny and... and..." Pause. "Oh wow. That other girl's hand writing is really shitty. But she was so cool and nice and sweet and i tried to set her up with you but she said no. Kinda."
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori is hugged mere moments after she's dropped her armor! She does keep her balance surprisingly well and almost immediately twists to try and get a look at Unmei, first asking, "How's your stomach?" after that violent a tacklehug! She returns the hug after a moment. The mention that she has terrible handwriting gets a scowl that may or may not be hidden, "It's not that bad is it?" Before quickly adding on, "That's neat!"
Then she pauses and says, "Why did you try to set me up with anyone?" Sounding actually confused and now able to ask about it without feeling like she's teasing too much! She gently pokes the girl, "What's wrong though?" Trying to be subtle about asking about what she just heard!
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blushed. "B-better. Ummm, a lot better. Wanna see? it's kind of gross, though. Maybe it's better you don't see it..." she gulped and then shook her head. "Well, it's not THAT bad. I've seen doctors with worse. But... she's still soooooo coooooool. And nice. She's just awesome!"
She then blinked. "Well, you're single, right? And you're awesome! So you totally deserve a magical girl girlfriend! A-and what do you mean ,what's wrong?" She was unaware yuzu had heard that.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori pokes her gently and says, "I want to make sure you don't pop stitches trying to tackle me like that!" Then she just shakes her head with a faint sigh, "It was bad enough that you were ginger about it at the party, I just wanted to be sure."
Then she's hearing about how she should have a girlfriend and all that other stuff. She tilts her head, considers then gently says, "Why not you instead?" Leaving that kind of question vague for now. Did she just ask her out? Then there's a quick chance to lie to cover herself, "U-uuuh I mean you don't usually hug me that way unless something happened right?" Which is kind of true, isn't it? Hopefully.
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama nodded. "Oh, it's a lot better than it was. Almost completely healed! In... another week or so. Eh heh. I'm being careful." And then smacked it. And whimpered. "O-ow..."
Then blinked and... "What? Me date a magical girl? Don't be silly. Only cool people get to do that, Yuzu," she said with a snicker. "You're much better suited to that. And yeah, something did happen! See? The autographs, they're so awesome!" It... completely blew over her head. Could unmei be THAT clueless about being flirted with?
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori scowls and says, "No more tackling me until you're healed Unmei, I'm serious!" She then shakes her head and gives her a hug, "I meant you a different way." Then she takes a look at the handwriting, once more murmuring that her handwriting was that bad for the gauntlets. Might be a bit of a sore spot!
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama nodded. "R-right. sorry, I was just so excited," she said with a little smile. "You meant me in a different way? What does..." Then her cheeks went red.
'She means YOU date her.'
Unmei shook her head and flailed. "W-what? No! I-I couldn't! Y-you're, you're way too awesome for me, I-I mean, you're like, and I'm like, I mean, t-trust me, I'm not the kind of g-girl you'd want anyway and I--" Then paused when Pin said something else. "Wait... how did you know about the gauntlets?" Pause... "Have you seen her before?"
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori gently patpats the girl while saying, "There it is." Then she hears the excuses as to why not and all that, looking extremely confused. "I'm pretty sure it's not a big problem right? I mean I only recently learned how to do more than super basic makeup stuff myself!" Seems she's missing the point.
At being asked about the gauntlets, she shrugs, "I said I've seen the samurai before! That's part of their armor right?" Well, it's one of the few easy lies for her at least!
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blushed and crossed her arms, lowering her gaze. "Y-yeah, but... you're... cool and... and older and more mature and... a lot... girlier and..." Probably didn't make much sense, considering unmei had the kind of body that... well, matured fast. Probably one of the few who could compete with usagi in terms of... assets. But then, hers wasn't natural. It was all magic.
"Oh! right! yeah, I guess the gauntlets kind of... messed her signature up. she was kind of silly, wonder why she kept them on. You... you don't think I disgusted her, do you? I mean, it was my pen, what if she was grossed out and didn't want to touch it with her bare hand?"
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori looks confused once again and looks down at herself wearing a battered old hoodie over her school uniform. She checks the back, then rubs the back of her head and asks, "Girlier? I... don't think so?" She honestly looks confused. "Do you mean the makeup thing? Because I watched videos for the stuff I learned."
There's a good excuse to jump to another subject though, still baffled as she is. "I doubt it was that. It would be silly for someone like that to be disgusted right?" Besides, she can't just admit that she's an idiot and forgets about that kind of thing!
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama shook her head and.. "I... I just... you're... mannerisms and... they're more... natural than mine and I'm not... very good at this and... and I don't deserve someone as cool and confident as you...."
"I guess... but I mean, it'd be a really weird thing, otherwise, right? What other reason could she have to forget something like that? you'd have to be a pretty big air head to not notice you were writing with gloves."
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori once more looks very confused, "My mannerisms? There are different standards for what you're talking about I think?" Does she mean more demure? She's sure she's not demure, she's pretty atypical for a Japanese girl. "I wear a mask on stage and I panic in crowds, stop that." She is rather honest with herself though!
The mention that she's an airhead gets a conveniently timed nudge from the girl, disguised as a trip with a simple, "Gah sorry!" though she may be scowling just a touch longer.
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blushed and then... tried lying. "Um, it's just, ummm, j-japanese girls are much... better at it than... italian girls," she lied. "A-and i never had anyone to teach me." She was actually backing up a little bit, nervously. "A-and you're my senior, y-you're so cool, w-why would, I mean, i-isn't that embarrassing for you?" Well, it was true. Unmei, while she had a feminine body, had a lot of masculine mannerisms.
She then cringed from the nudge, off balance already and kinda... stumbling back into the wall with a cringe. "Owie..."
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori shakes her head and says, "I'm pretty sure you're at least as girly as I am, stop acting like that!" She then pokes the other girl's head and asks, "Don't be so worried about it!" She doesn't move from where she's at when Unmei backs away, "I don't think most people look at me unless I'm snoring in class again." She tenses, "I don't snore in class. Anymore. I stay awake most days even!"
At the stumble and owie though she tenses up then steps in close and asks, "Sorry sorry, did something happen?" Looking down immediately expecting a popped stitch or something.
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blushed and then squeaked a little. "I... I think... I'm fine..." she looked up at her all nervously. She's horribly off balanced. "I just... I think... I... you're so... cool and I'm... not. I don't want to make you... uncomfortable and..." Then... "What if... I'm too... masculine... you... don't like boys at all..." ... What, THAT'S what she's worried about?
Her hand moved to her stomach with a little cringe. That had hurt a bit.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori glances around then sighs and twists to lean against the wall next to Unmei, hands in her pockets. "I'm a quiet nerd that hides behind a mask on stage and makes music. Most of my friends I can tease in private, but I get overwhelmed in large crowds without hiding myself .I play roleplaying games with a couple of other students after school some days. I don't think I fit the image you've got." She gently pats Unmei's shoulder and answers the last part, "Too masculine? Like what? I threatened to punch someone for you, I think that's not a concern." She does watch that hand closely, making sure something bad really didn't happen.
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blinked a few times, her eyes lighting up. "Oh my gosh, you play those too? I used to love playing them back home, but I was never any good. I always played the bard or cleric."
Her cheeks burned even more. "y-yeah. But that's because you're so... cool and awesome and... feminine that... that it just works when you do it..." She squirmed in place, staring up at her with eyes of an admirer.
She then lifted the shirt a little. "S-see? It's... okay. No bleeding."
... Depending on how well she knew wounds... she might realize... that was a sword wound. That wasn't a 'I tripped and cut myself'. That was almost from side to side, across her belly. It looked a lot better, thanks to the stitches. But wow.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori nods while saying, "I was doing Golden Sky Stories the other day. It's adorable." Then she tilts her head and adds, "I did Double Cross recently too." She shakes her head after though, "I don't think I've played one with a cleric or bard. Is that the one they based those old animes on?"
She reaches out and pokes Unmei's arm and says, "Stop that, it works because I'm me! Not because I fit someone else's ideal. Or something." She looks uncomfortable as she shrugs again.
Then there's the view of the wound. She scowls and asks, "What really happened?" pointing to the wound while adding, "It didn't go all the way through right? Were you hurt on that vampire girl's fence or something?" What, she imagines a house like that has spiked fence tops!
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blinked a few times. "I ummm... no. Dungeons and... dragons." yes, she was one of those girls. Was it even around in italy? She hoped so, as that was part of her cover story.
And then that. "W-what? No, you're awesome though. And cool and cute and feminine and amazing and I'm... just... silly and... weird and... masculine and unwanted and..."
And that sets off panics. "W-what? No! I-I just... hurt myself. Really. I cut myself on something and... and I had to get stitches. T-that's all." A wound like that, no way rumors wouldn't have been flying if it happened in school.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori shakes her head and says, "I think that was it, that was the one the one character was a tiny super mage or something." She rubs her head trying to remember it. "I uh... used to watch it? I just don't remember the name anymore."
At the praise again she pokes Unmei once more and says, "No really, stop that. If you were unwanted I wouldn't be sitting here right?"
Finally she asks, "Most cuts that would require stitches like that would either be deeper... like I suspect, or both longer and deeper. That's not something you'd just accidentally trip into usually."
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blinked a few times. Then nodded. "I guess? I think there was a tv series. I never saw it. I mostly watched the magical girl animes..."
Her cheeks turned red. "I... I guess you're just... that special..." she said softly, gulping a little.
She chewed on her lower lip. She didn't want to lie, but... "Promise... not to... tell anyone?"
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori taps her head against the wall a few times, trying to dislodge the memory, "I uh.. it was- it started with an S? I think? Or was that the Record one?" She eventually shrugs and huffs, "I've forgotten."
Glancing over, she scoots over and says, "Nothing special here. Just a weird girl into weird things." Beat, "Nooot saying you're weird." Even though she kind of is weird! She likes weird though! She doesn't zone out for once at least.
She nods and says, "I won't tell a soul." That isn't her own. Since she's sure he hears anything she does anyway.
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama shrugged and smiled up at her nervously. Then... "But... you do... like me? Even if I'm not always that... feminine? And... even though I kinda... like boys too?" she asked sheepishly.
"I... ummm... you know how I sometimes do jobs for my dad at his work? I had a little accident there..." Technically true! "It was my own fault, but... I don't want daddy to get in trouble after all he's had to go through to take me in so... I don't want anyone to know... Please?"
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori glances over and says, "Why would you think I would mind that kind of thing? Do I seem that worried about appearances all the time?" beat, "I really should be sometimes. I've got bags under my eyes too often I think." Looking to Unmei she just shakes her head and laughs, "I like you for you, yes. Is that what you're worried about?"
There's a few moments of thought as she hears the story from Unmei. "You.... need to report that to some people. I don't know who exactly, but if someone else gets hurt too, there's no hiding it." She looks like she's not happy that she's keeping this secret too.
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama nodded a little bit, poking her fingers together. "K-kinda. I mean, I don't even know what I want. If I like girls or guys or really both and... and I've never even kissed anyone or held their hands or even hugged them!" She did that to Yuzu. Well, except the kissing part. All the time. She blushed. "Are... are you asking me out?"
"What? NO! I-it was just a minor accident! It's not going to happen again, please, don't say anything. It was my own fault! Most of what I do isn't that dangerous! It's just kind of important to all of them! Please, please don't tell anyone. Please," she begged.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori looks over and reaches out to poke Unmei's side and says, "What do you mean you've never hugged someone?" She peers at her like she's scrutinizing before laughing, "You really didn't forget New Years did you?" Then there's the question. She nods and says, "I am! I tried it less blatantly uh.." she looks at her wrist like she expects a watch. "I need a watch." Clear deflection!
As for the injury, she shakes her head and says, "I said I wouldn't, I don't. I don't agree with it, but I won't."
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blushed. "I-I meant... hugged them... romantically." She poked her fingers together nervously. "And... and you actually like me and ummmm... what if I... hurt you? Or... or you find out things about me you don't like?" Pause. "What if it turns out you don't like italy after all?" ... Okay she was the weirdest girl. Luckily she liked weird. "Will you still like italy? Even if... I mean, like me, even if you don't like the... italian... side of me?"
"A-and it's fine, really. I just... I just need to be more careful, is all. It shouldn't happen again. Pin says I'm getting a lot better so I shouldn't make any more mistakes."
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori looks at Unmei and says, "Show me the wound again, I want to make sure it's not infected." After the talk about Italy. Then she relaxes again and says more seriously, "You're going to have a hard time hurting me I think." she turns to face the girl properly, "I've never had thoughts about Italy one way or the other. I know vaguely where it is in that I could find it on a map? I might plan to go there some day." Then there's more confusion, "Why would you think that matters?"
"You do need to be more careful now! Those kinds of injuries can be bad!" She points and adds, "And you're talking to Pin again which... is definitely not your hairpin this time. Are you sure you're okay?"
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama squirmed and then slowly lifted her shirt up. That was definitely a blade wound. "A... hard time hurting you?" She chewed on her lower lip. "I don't think it's infected... and I don't know. What if I'm... not... quite what you expected?" she asked weakly.
"W-what? Oh, no. A different Pin. Pin is one of the workers at the place. He's actually the one who gave me this hair pin. He just really likes hair pins. Collects them. Said this one looked cute on me."
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori shakes her head and murmurs, "Put your shirt down, that was teasing." Though the second look did kind of reaffirm her thoughts that something else happened. Crossing her arms she says, "Isn't that anyone you meet? Everyone has their secrets!" she points to herself and says, "I mean again, I have a stage persona!" and a magical persona! And a past life one too!
The scrambling over the name drop gets a scowl from her and she leans back, checking Unmei's shoulders and around her head, looking for any telltale signs of a fairy thingy. Charathingy. Whatever they're called. What, she's at least seen some!
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama nods. "Yeah,but I know all your secrets," she said with a little giggle. "The great masked stage girl! Who's totally awesome and really nice!" she said with a big grin. Her cheeks burned a bit as she slid it down. "Well, at least your... non-personal ones. I guess. If... ummm..." She poked her fingers together. "And... and remember on new years? You seemed kind of... weirded out. About my whole... wanting to... date... a guy and a girl. I-I mean, I won't do that if you don't want me to, but, err, you're not going to be... annoyed that I thought that, are you?"
She blinked. "Is something wrong?" She had nothing off about her. Well, except maybe her golden hair pin. Everything else matched her clothes just fine.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori resists the urge to poke at the Pin, that would be too brazen even for her. She instead just focuses on something else for now! "All of my secrets hm? Now there's a scary thought!" She flashes a smile while leaning forward, "Though to be fair, I did admit to talking in my sleep the other night."
She tilts her head, "Non personal ones if um?" She asks, actually sounding curious while adding, "I wasn't weirded out by the idea, I was just lost as to why you were acting like it was a big deal! No no, no annoyance, none at all!" She holds both hands for emphasis, then crosses her arms in an X!
She then quickly looks away and says, "I was just thinking, just thinking is all."
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama nodded. "I think it's cute," she said softly, then paused. "And... if they're too personal... you can keep them hidden, okay? Though, you know most my secrets. You're... the only one who really knows about my... family." Then her cheeks turned red. "W-wait. So... you're... open to that kind of... thing?" Oh gosh she was shrinking now. "B-but you don't like boys!"
"T-t-t-thinking about what?" Oh gosh her cheeks were so, so, so red.
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori smiles and says, "I keep a few secrets because it's easier than explaining them." She then stands up straight and scoots over closer to Unmei, then a touch closer, just shy of being able to lean against her. At her confusion, she glances over and says, "You keep saying that and you've never actually asked, you realize right?" She points with a grin, "I just have a strong preference. I tend to... pine after the person though." She actually looks embarassed, "Who wants someone cute if you can't stand them right?"
She tilts her head and says, "Thinking about who you're really talking to. That's all that's all!"
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blinked a few times. "Wait. So... you do... like boys, too?" Pause. "A-and you pine aft--" And then her eyes went wider. "W-wait, did you pine after me? Oh my gosh no one has ever pined after me before oh my gosh oh my gosh," She cupped her cheeks and wiggled in place, giving a little squeak of embarrassment. "Y-you think I'm cute?" Then... looked down. "Is... it the boobs? It's the boobs, isn't it?" Oh my gosh.
"W-what? I'm talking to you! Who else would I be talking to?"
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori reaches out and pokes Unmei once more and says, "Yes, yes and why do you keep thinking I care about what you look like?" She stops, "I don't care about that kind of thing, I like /you/ Unmei." She then huffs and mutters, "I should be more direct I guess>." Then she shakes her head and pinches the bridge of her nose at her reaction, her own embarassed reaction really. One could even here the yare yare daze.
"I don't know, I was just curious."
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama nodded, blushing red. "O-oh. I ummm... I like that..." she said softly. She poked her finger tips together. "so, ummm, what happens now? I, err, I mean... you... ummm... I-I've never really... dated before and I don't know how they work here. In japan. At all..."
'So, she's your love interest, then?'
'K-kinda I guess!'
'If she finds out...'
'She's not going to find out!'
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori tilts her head from side to side as she considers what the next step is, then she shrugs. "Dunno." She offers truthfully. There's a big grin suddenly and she slips an arm around Unmei, giving her a tight hug while saying, "Totally going to try and embarass you in public now though!" not that she's being serious, based on her earlier admission. The fact that they're semi-alone right now is the only reason she'd even try the joke she's doing now!
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama turned bright red. And that was just from the arm! "E-embarass... me in public? h-how?" She was very still in the arm rest. Then... slowly... leaned in a bit to it. Closing her eyes. "Are... you sure you don't mind me... ummmm... being an under class man? And, ummmm, you're really okay with... trying, err, the other... dating thing... too?" she asked with a little squeak. "You don't think it's weird? Or... bad weird? You like weird?"
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori rets her head against Unmei's and says softly, "Yeah I'm fine with it, I want to give it a try with you." She then nudges the girl very gently, "I'm not trying to tease you, I'm not trying to give you a hard time. I promise." She then settles in against the wall and says, "If anyone does, come tell me though, really!"
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blushed bright red, a grin on her face. "T-thank you." She couldn't believe it! A girl friend! Already! "Japan is awesome," she said with a little giggle. and she could maybe get a boy friend, too, oh my gosh, she was like a grown up, with her big relationship and so mature and--
'And if she finds out?'
'She won't find out.'
'You still have a job.'
'If I succeed, we'll rule the world. She'll be the girlfriend of a queen. What will she care then?'
"Can ummm, we still work together? On the, ummm, well, y-you know... concerts..."
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori looks over and says, "So uh... no trying to pair me up with magical samurai anymore." She then leans forward to look around before leaning back and slipping the other arm around her in a tight hug. "If you need help, please don't hesitate to ask." That's about as close as she can get to admitting she knows more than she probably should!
The question about working shows gets a nod, "Sure! Though uh, I'll have to introduce you to people and get you familiar with the setup and all right?"
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blinked. "Really? What if he's reallllly cute and wants us both?" she said with a big grin. She closed her eyes and nestled into the arm. She was quite for a moment and... "Yuzu... ummmmm..." She lowered a hand to her stomach. "This... hurt... wasn't intentional, I swear. I know my parents don't like me much, but they'd never actively hurt me."
"A-and yeah, I'd like that! Meeting new people is fun if you're there."
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori looks over and says, "I uh... would be happy with you?" She's not sure how to answer that first question and it shows. She looks at the hand, then says softly, "I didn't think it was them, but I'm not entirely sure what it could have been either." She then shakes her head and hugs her tight for a moment. "I mean it, come to me for anything."
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama nodded, nestling in a bit and... "In... that case... ummmmmm... I..." She blushed some more. "Anything? Would, errr, you like to have... a slumber... party sometime?" she asked, her cheeks burning a bit more. "If you like that kind of thing, I mean?" What was she, twelve?
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori looks very confused and asks, "Do you mean like the new year party? Because if you're doing shows with me, we'll probably be passing out at places regularly." She sounds pretty sure about that sort of thing. Then she pauses, "Yes you can come over though. I'm sure we'll have to provide a uh, guest couch or something"
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blushed and poked her fingers together. Not at all what hse meant. A slumber party was so much fun! You got to do each other's hair and talk about boys and play spin the--
Oh wow her cheeks went red. "Y-yes! Ummm, I mean, I-I like hanging out with you. And... and the paryy was nice because you were there."
- Yuzuki Amemori has posed:
Yuzuki Amemori looks at the girl curiously again, then begins laughing and asks, "Spin the bottle, really?" Before squeezing the other girl. "I don't think... well." She shrugs eventually, "We'll figure something out."
She then smiles and after a moment, leans over and kisses Unmei's cheek. "There, your first one, at least from another girl right?"
- Unmei has posed:
Unmei Tama blinked a bunch. Like, for a good solid minute. Her gem across her heart turned green, as did the pin in her hair(though only the pin was viewable). She stared, her eye wide. "You... you kissed me. Y-you actually... I've never... I've never b-been kissed before b-by a girl..." She squeaked. "A-at least, who wasn't my mommy..." Oh gosh she looked ready to cry. Happy cry, though!
