I saw the Karamatsu sales ace skit, and HELP IT'S KINDA WHOLESOME??? If we ever get a season 4, I would love to see that skit in there. Also, if Studio Pierrot would STOP PLAYING GAMES and give us Nozomi back... that would be nice too/j (adapting manga into anime isn't easy, so they're allowed to take their time, but bringing back favorites would be nice ;-;)
I'm obsessed with anything and everything where we see Karamatsu working because it just.... Really shows he's SOOOOO UNFIT FOR TRADITIONAL WORK lmfao.
In the taxi driver skit, we see how his Thing with embedding his personality into everything he does actively gets in the way of him being able to do things seamlessly and efficiently (his taxi's gadgets popping up at inconvenient times and annoying Totoko), to the point where he can't focus on what he's doing and ends up getting lost and needing to be given a pep talk by his client. Incredible stuff.
And then in the bar skit, a job that you'd think he should be a good fit for him, the lack of, ah, creative freedom? (Meaning: he wants to do flashy stuff but the clients, again, want things to be done simply and efficiently) eventually kills his vibe and he begrudgingly agrees to give the girlymatsus what they want. Only to not go through in the end.
That skit reminds me a bit of season 3, where sometimes he'd pull one of his increasingly rare karamatsuisms (strike a pose, summon sparkles, wax purple prose), only for his siblings to not play along, which in turn have us viewers a close-up of him going from 😎✨ to 😒
I do love that he tries to find ways to put his personality into what he does and like, try to hype things up for himself, try to make work fun etc. He's just so... Chaotic and immature about it ckdkkfkd. I'm trying to picture him as a salesman and I think most people would be weirded out by him, it takes a very specific (open minded + curious + with time to kill?) type of person to watch a man in a fur coat strutting your way attempting to sell you some magazines, and think "I need to figure out what your deal is".
With that in mind, I think it'd be so cute if Studio Pierrot brought back Nozomi for a few skits with Kara 🥺 Because from what we saw in the movie... She's actually that type of person? She saw the sextuplets as being a bit too much, a bit odd, and it just made her want to get to know them better. I think most people don't expect a seemingly shy character to fit the characteristic that I listed before, so there's definitely some fun to be had at highlighting that gap.
Also. Airhead X 2 friendship ftw.

"There was something comforting in feeling that sweet body draped upon his own, keeping him warmer than any blanket or fire ever did ; that soft skin pressed so snugly against his cold, cadaveric own, closer to parchment than living tissue."
Excerpt from an ongoing thing.... hopefully not to be obliterated before birth

OK SO LIKE SEEING HOW THEIR IS A TRAIDTION FOR EACH CHARACTER LIKE BELLE HAS THE BANQUETS, HARVESTON HAS THE SLEDGATHON, THE BUNNY PRADE THING FOR QUEENDOM OF ROSES
POPPY'S HOME TOWN SHOULD HAVE ONE TOO
Thinking of naming her town Rouchette btw-
Like a scanvager hunt or smth where the participants search for a few things and collect them in their baskets like The girl in the red hood would, and they search for stuff that lead them to a latch needed to open a cottage owned by Poppy's family (I plan of making her a descendant and her red cape is an heirloom) and the cottage would have the prize 😭
OOH A TRADITION FOR HER HOME TOWN WOULD BE SO COOL??? I LOVE THE IDEA ADDIE :DD
Rouchette is such a nice name i love it!!
If you have any ideas for the tradition I would be more than happy to help u with it :3

Happy friday! It’s almost Christmas for those who celebrate, and it IS Hannukah- so happy holidays! Do you think your favorite pokemon character has any fun holiday traditions? If not, here’s a question- are they pro- or anti- ugly sweaters? Would any of their pokemon tolerate a sweater for the holidays? Stay warm, and happy friday!
woo!
happy holidays all around and happy severe winter storm to everyone in the storm right now. to all those not in the storm or having a holiday, happy friday!
(i personally celebrate christmas so my answers are gonna be christmas-y!!)
let's see, with the current tops being nemona, goh, and lillie... Nemona strikes me as a zealous holidays girl. she's got traditions and every year she goes ham, there's so many decorations. she scouts out the perfect presents for penny arven and aoi for agessss and is just super excited to give them. i think her traditions would involve decorating the tree together and waking up early to open things!
Goh i think didn't have christmas traditions before ash, bcs his family was busy at christmas time with tech failures and stuff, so he mainly spent them alone. Then when he meets ash, they start doing stuff together and form new christmas traidtions! but all the traidtions are really atypical and just... silly things they like to do together. 'goh we gotta build a blanket fort its christmas eve' and stuff.
Lillie... i think also didn't due much precanon with her mom being as she was. maybe the aether family did stuff together, but lillie's probably... not able to remember much. instead though, i think she (in the anime) visits her friends a lot and participates in their traditions, or (in the game) has a quiet christmas with the professors!!
Nemona i think, adores ugly sweaters. i think nemona has really,, really bad fashion taste. she was raised with pretty dresses and school uniforms so on her own time she dresses in whatever the heck and it all clashes. comfort over style, so very much ugly sweaters!!! she'd put them on all her pokemon and i think they'd all go along with it as much as they could.. hehe goomy in a sweater....
goh is a Stylish Boy :tm: so its a NO!! to sweaters. until chloe and ash team up to be like goh wear this plsss <333 for your friends <33 only ash is entirely genuine and chloe is teasing the heck out of him. he agrees and relucently enjoys it. aceburn enjoys the sweater, inteleon copes because it loves goh, and grooky does not understand what he's wearing but hehe fun.
Lillie wantsss to wear an ugly sweater but can't choose one for herself because her mom picks all her clothes and i think she still has trouble deviating from that style. the professors get her a sweater to match with them and she is sooo happy she nearly cries. they all take a picture together =) (before taking the sweaters off. bcs it is hot.) vulpix will not wear an ugly sweater but it will wear a cute little one and other cutesy winter outfits <3

Tumblr media
The white-nette girl sighed and ran a hand through her hair. The couple of red strains that colored the hair fell out, she seriously hated them so much.
“Oh, morning Kai!” A familar voiced entered.
The girl glanced at who it was. She saw Reko, they weren’t extremely close, but close enough.
“Kai?? Your shaking..” She pointed out.
When the other looked down, her hands were shaking. Pretty violently, and twitchy aswell. Her ears ringed before she quickly tucked them behind her back.
“Oh sorry..I’ve just been very twitchy lately. Anyways, do you need something?” They smiled tensly.
The pink haired girl glanced behind their back for a second before smiling.
“The others were just wondering where you were, y’know, people from uptop coming down here today again?” She asked.
The red eyed person blinked a couple times before tensing further.
“Right, of course. I’ll be there straight away.” She straightly replied.
The taller made a confused expression before shrugging. She waved behind her before quickly leaving.
“I’m such a weridoooo!!’” They whined as soon as they knew she was out of earshot.
It was true, they had werid habits and manners. Well, whatever you could consider manners down here.
They blew out a puff of air before walking out of their room. The main hallway immeditally greeted them and they glanced around.
“Kai?” A tired voice called.
The person probably didn’t see it, but she made a face. But plastered a netural expression on before turning around.
“Ah! Suimuki, do you need anything?” She crossed her hands behind her back again.
The inventor, who was peeking her head out of her doorway stayed silent. It looked like she was nodding off before she perked up and nodded lazily.
“Yeah, for you to stop talking like that.” She sarcastically said.
The former erked before tilting her head.
“Right! Anything else?” She contuined bitter.
“Coffee, you know how I take it.~” She responded back, closing one of her eyes before closing the door.
Kai scoffed before making her way further down the hallway. Once she entered the dining room, everyone was gathering their food.
“Morning, my love.~” Maya greeted her, slightly downward from her usual tone.
She didn’t say anything, only scowling when she pecked her cheek. She heard her laugh before scampering off. Fucker.
“Damnit! I can’t believe you get more play then ME!” The second eldest of the Adachi’s complained.
The younger finished picking up her food, looking up and raising an eyebrow at Astro.
“More people like me because I like both genders. You only like one, therefore, making your dating..limited.” She curtely responded.
Her sister, which had a piece of avcado in her mouth only flipped them off.
“Real elegant, Astro.” A new player entered the thunderdome, Mars.
They swallowed their food and scowled at the both of them. Flipping them off with both hands.
“Fuck you both then!!” They hissed.
Kai only placed a sarcastic smile on their face before liting up when they saw Theriean. He was sitting down with, Hiraeith, Ace, Violet, and Celeste.
“Lover boy, huh?” Mars nudged the younger.
They flushed and scooted away from the maroon eyed girl, glaring. She simply shot them a smile before walking off.
The youngest adachi glanced towards the male again, but this time he noticed. He grinned and waved them over.
They tensed but carefully went over there.
“Hey, apprentince. Come sit with us.” He greeted.
God, it took her entire being not to fold. She loved his voice so much. It was lowered but not too much.
“Apprentince?” He broke her out of it.
She flinched and smiled tensly before quickly sitting down next to Hiraeith. The purple eyed girl raised an eyebrow but didn’t say anything.
“So..uhm..how..how are you..?” She blurted out.
The red eyed female resisted the urge to rip her hair out and face palm at the question. The male’s eyes crinkled as he smiled wider.
“Oh? How am I? Well, better now that you finally showed up.” He answered smoothly.
The girl opened her mouth slightly and flushed a little red. The man only laughed before studying her.
“Jesus, releax Kai.” Hiraeith mummbled.
The said girls eye twitched. She took a few pieces of fruit and sighed.
“Have you guys heard of the festival?? I’ve already been asked five times!” Violet inquired.
The white haired person looked up and quickly glanced at Theriean. His eyes were focused on the blonde.
“Oh yeah? Did you accept any of them?” He asked.
She rolled her eyes before sighing.
“Absoutetly not! I’d rather Iris ask me other then that.” She said.
Everyone at the table glanced at one another, in a knowing way.
“Telling. Anyways, the festival is basically for lunar new year!” Ace simply said before explaing.
The youngest Adachi wasn’t really paying attention. They finished the rest of their coffee before flinching when a bell rang.
“Ah!- You guys know what that means! See ya later!~” Celeste yanked the rest of the group and walked away with their plates.
Kai made a face as a thought paced through her head.
‘THEY’RE SETTING ME UP! THEY AREN’T EVEN IN THE SAME DIVISON.’ She sweat-dropped.
She turned her attention to her crush as he picked up his plate and raised an eyebrow.
“You comin’?” He stood up.
She flustered slightly and her hands shook as she grabbed her plate and things. Theriean’s eyes squinted at her before nudging his head and walking.
She quickly followed after, but something was bugging her.
‘Did I take my meds??’ She tried to remeber.
Her mind went blank. Knowing herself, she guessed she did. But of course, she couldn’t be certian.
“Kai, c’mon!” The male slightly scolded as he picked up her plates from her hands and put them away before leading her off.
‘Embrassing!’
Tumblr media
Later on, both the two white-nette’s were teaching people. Kai was entertaining the younger blood mages, almost kids with making flowers appear, just illusions. Or small fishes in the water.
“Your so talented, miss Kai!” A few of the kids said as the previous illusion faded away.
They only grinned slightly and leaned down.
“You think so’?” They rythrocically asked.
Objectively, their favorite kid, nodded. She had soft brown hair and green eyes that could go head to head with Autumn’s.
“Of course! Your like my mama’!!” She giggled and hugged the others leg.
The girls eyes couldn’t help but water a little at that. The kids mother had passed away some time ago and she always saw Kai as a replacement.
But everyone else saw her as a replacement too. Second best.
“I’m happy you like me that much.” She simply said, picking the girl up and smiling when she giggled.
Someone tapped her on the shoulder and she flinched, grabbing the kid closer.
“That your kid?” A teasing voiced inquired.
She looked at the person, it was Elizebeth. Her brown and red hair was in a short ponytail and she had a small smile on her face.
“No! Of course not! Does she look anything like me?” She defended.
The olive green eyes of child blinked before snuggling into her.
“No..what’s your name, kid?” She sighed before looking at the kid.
“Oliver..” She answered.
Elizebeth hummed and Kai gently set her down.
“You can go now, Olive.” The maroon eyed girl watched as she scampered off.
“Cute kid.” The other red eyed girl said.
Kai only hummed in response. They weren’t really in the mood for anything.
“Theriean’s in charge today??” They asked another question.
The same heighted girl’s eye twitched but she decided to be nice.
“Yes.” She bitterly answered.
The other seemed to pick up the fact that they weren’t wanted as they quickly left. Annoying.
She scowled and clentched her hands tighter. Relax, Ei. Don’t burn down the fucking building.
All the other kids seemed to be playing with one another, chasing each other back and forth. She zoned out. Lucky.
Their entire childhood was filled with unplesentires. Everyone hated them, everyone was scared of them. So what if they had unstable magic??
So. fucking. what.
The youngest could probably create so much chaos if they really wanted to. They had accidentally caught pieces of clothing, or furnature on fire before.
She yelped when a kid crashed into her leg, harshly. She stummbled but fell to the ground. When she peeked a eye open since they had closed on reflex, multiple gasps where heard.
“Miss Kai! I’m so sorry!” A young boy frowned, it looked like he was about to cry.
The long haired girl smiled a little with one eye closed. She stummbled to her feet before roughing up the kids hair.
“it’s okay..” She grinned.
The girl flinched when someone called her name.
“KAIIIIII!!~~” A loud yet sweet voice sounded.
She made a horrifed face before groaning when swept up into someones arms. She grunted when the basically spun her around.
“Hey..ack!-Mayfield!..” She hissed.
The blonde giggled and set her down. Multiple kids stared at the two of them, big eyes blinking.
“Aw, hey cuties!~” The taller girl cooed towards the children.
They all hid behind each other.
“Your scaring them..and me.” Kai scoffed.
The blue eyed girl blinked before clinging onto her arm.
“Sorry! Anyways, see you later kids!~” She apologized before shooing the group of youngers away.
The shorter made a face and sweat-dropped. She grunted harder when Maya pressed closer.
“Can you..get off?!” She hissed.
The blonde frowned but quickly got off when Theriean showed up. His hands were tucked into his pockets but he leaned back and raised an eyebrow.
“You heard her, no?” He asked.
The other girls attiutide quickly changed. Her body was more on edge and her eyes were narrowed.
“Yeah, and I got off, no?” She mocked.
They made a grimnace. Both of them had a annoyed smile and their eyebrows twitched.
“I’ll go teach now! Y..you two have fun!” They tried to leave.
Theriean quickly grabbed their wrist and gently tugged them back. They turned a little red.
“Stay.” Was all he said.
“Ok!” She yelped.
The other girls eye twitched multiple times. Honestly, who did this guy think he was?!
“What’s wrong Mayfield? They are their own person after all..” He mockingly taunted.
“Of course I know that.” She quickly said.
Kai worringly glanced between the two. It was like the air was filled with static. They sighed and quickly shoved their way inbetween them.
“Both of you relax. Maya, let’s go.” She breathed before looking towards her.
The air lightened, she blinked in surprise. Before a cocky grin came over her face and she quickly grabbed their hand and lead them off. Meanwhile, Theriean scowled.
“Stupid.” He scoffed.
Tumblr media
The two girls basically threw themselves onto the couch. Kai had unlocked the room where Akari and higherups usually resided.
“Woah, I’ve never actually been in here.” She marveled.
The shorter girl scoffed and very carefully leaned towards her.
“Please, don’t you get in trouble all the time?” She questioned.
Maya simply scoffed back before leaning her head back on the couch.
“Yeah, but only for you!~” She adimitted before winking.
The white-nette simply rolled their eyes before shuffling positions. She looked around, photos, and well achivements that Akari had earned.
Also a bunch of documents with..
Wait. What..was that??
She furrowed her eyebrows and grabbed the folder. The taller female also peaked over but lost intrest, humming some song Kai didn’t know.
“What the fuck.” They blurted out, eyes frantically going over the documents.
The ocean eyed girl grunted and leaned aganist their shoulder.
“What’s up?” She simply asked.
“Academia.” They whispered harshly.
Maya blinked a few times before pressing closer.
“Like that fancy school up top?? What about it?” She contuined.
The red eyed girl groaned before making slight eye contact with them.
“It says she’s inrolled, Mayfield.” They grumbled.
“NO GODAMN WAY, LEMME’ SEE THAT!!” She yelled, snatching the documents.
Kai grunted when she quickly read over the thing.
“Holy shit..” She whispered, having the same reaction.
“What are you two doing.” A familar, semi-normal voice sounded.
The red eyed girl practically threw the documents behind them and smiled tensly.
“Akari! Hey! Uhm-We were just hanging out!” They laughed also nervously.
The other girl made a face at them and they kicked her from the ankle.
“Hey!-!” She hissed.
“Just play along, stupid.” They said, through sharp words and gritted teeth.
She scowled back at them before looking at the older Adachi. Her foot was tapping aganist the floor as her fingers tapped aganist her arm in a rythmatic motion.
“Yeah! Kai invited me in here..I can leave if you want-!” She started but was cut off.
“Yeah, bye!” The older Adachi quickly answered, making a motion with her wrist and a blue circlet incircled Maya’s wrist.
She yelped when her body was dragged off of the couch and out of the room. She was shoved out of the door, stummbling, before turning back around but the door slammed closed.
“Ugh.” She sighed.
The younger sister glanced at the door before back to her older sister.
“So..you know?” Akari inquired.
They dug their fingers into their sleeve and scowled.
“Yes.” She bitterly said.
The other pinched her nose and huffed. Both of them were annoyed now.
“So? Are you mad?” She contuined.
Kai quickly stood up and scowled deeper. Her eye twitched and it almost took her entire being for her not to snap.
“Of course I’m angry! We have this whole fucking devison fucking deicated to NOT agreeing with up top! And then I find out your going to school?!” She glared.
The slightly taller female looked away but didn’t say anything.
“Whatever. Maybe I should tell the others-!”
“Absoutetly not! Don’t even THINK IT.” The heterocromdia girl stopped them.
“Then fucking explain.” They spat, leaning towards her with a annoyed expression.
Akari huffed and lowered her shoulders. A small scowl of her own rested on her face.
“It’s not because I want to. It’s because I litterally got found out. Y’know, vison and everything.” She breathed.
“What, so they know your empowered?” They scoffed.
The blue themed girl only shrugged. This whole situation was annoying.
“So if your up top, doing fuck’s knows what, whose gonna’ rule down here?!” They leaned back.
Akari placed a hesatiant smile on her face and her shoulders rose again. Why was she looking at her like that?? Wait-
“Oh no, no, no!! I am NOT taking OVER YOUR POSITION, Akari!!” She recoiled.
The ladder only frowned and gently leaned closer, laughing a little.
“Why not? It’s better then Astro.” She simply said.
Kai only groaned and turned away, tapping her foot om the ground. There’s no way. Kai wasn’t made out for this sort of thing. Hell, maybe Suimuki was.
“Why one of us? Why not fucking Suimuki or someone else!?” She frantically asked.
She only placed a lazy grin on her face and tilted her head, raising an eyebrow.
“You really think Suimuki Lumine would be fit to watch over?” She asked.
In all honesty, maybe. Suimuki was complacated, probably had fifty mental illnesses. She also lashed out alot and was bitter.
But then again, Kai wasn’t perfect either. She sighed and turned back towards her sister.
“The people need you, Akari.” She breathed, grimnacing as their voice cracked.
The said girl only shook her head and smiled.
“No, they need a stable person to build off of. And I’ve decided that’s you. Simple as that.” She spoke.
The red eyed girl glanced away, biting her lip. Whatever Akari says was final, that was always the rule.
“Okay, fine! I’ll do it.” She adimitted.
Weak.
The older sibling smiled brightly and hugged her. It was nice. She smelt like cotton and light vanilla.
“Thanks so much! Also, please just tell the others I’m on a lengthy misson!!” She beamed.
The shorter only stared at her before stepping away from her warmth.
“How long are you exactly planning on leaving?” She asked.
Akari hummed and made a thinking posture. She was really pretty and thoughful, wasn’t she?
“Maybe a month or two? I’ll try and keep in touch. Don’t miss me too much.~” She smiled with her eyes closed.
‘A MONTH?!’ They screamed.
But they just placed a small, tense smile on their face.
“Right, good luck.” Was all they responded with before leaving the hangout area.
“I need a fucking drink.” They scoffed before walking off.
Tumblr media
Kai groaned and rubbed a hand over their face as they sat down at the bar. It was a pretty famous, loud one down here. But they had extremely yummy spiked drinks.
“Ah! If it isn’t my favorite member of our order! Hey, Kai, how’s it hangin’?” A friendily voice called.
They perked up and looked at Reko who was behind the bar. They had a grin on their face with crinkled eyes.
“Hey Reko, your sisters still my favorite.” She mummbled.
The pink haired girl geniuley laughed before catching her breath. Way to go, Adachi.
“That’s funny! Anyways, the usual?” She snickered before asking.
“You know it, thanks.” Was what she simply replied with.
Most people probably would’ve made faces at her dialaect. She was much more free speaking, had a somewhat casual attuitude with most people. Espically people of her own divison and order.
Music blared throughout the place and people cheered. Some gambled, some were smoking.
Speaking of..
The white haired girl kept playing with the end of a pack of ciggarettes she had bought. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to, or wasn’t allowed to. It was just that whenever she smoked, her mind fuzzed over.
It seemed like her brain got heavier, but maybe that’s what it was suposed to do. She also had a very light cough but it wasn’t due to her illness or anything.
“Here ya’ go, sweetie!’” Reko slid over her drink.
It was a simple strawberry diaqurri but with stronger and more liquor. She usually drank up to six of them, pretty concering. Maybe a bloody marry here and there.
“Thanks.” She said.
Reko only grinned and leaned forward on the counter. This made the former stop and raise an eyebrow.
“Anything for our next caretaker down here!” She sang.
The younger hadn’t even taken a sip of her drink before she choked. She hacked up a lung which made her laugh.
“W..what?! You already know?!” She frantically asked.
Reko only smiled with their eyes closed and chuckled.
“You should know, word gets around fast.” She shrugged.
Kai was about to say something else but the darkskin girl was whisked away. They sighed and took a sip of their fruity drink.
“Everyone’s gonna’ be flipping out when I come back..” They groaned and burried their face in their arms.
She hadn’t stayed there for long, maybe a hour or two. It was around sunset now, well, by her guess it was. No one could really be sure when the sun was pretty much cut off down here.
She carefully walked into the large building house and..
“Ah, look who it is.” A male voice spoke.
She flushed slightly and snapped her head up, Theriean. And he did not look pleased, he had a slight scowl on his face and his arms were crossed. Along with that, his fingers tapped rythmatically and his foot also tapped.
“Kai.” Was all he said.
“Theriean..” She replied quickly.
This didn’t seem to please him, instead his scowl deepened. She backed away when he grabbed her upper arm.
“So, your in charge of us now?” He questioned.
It actually wasn’t a question, he knew she was. How embrassing. It could’ve been anyone else but it was him.
“You should know. Espically if Akari told you all..did she leave already?” She took her arm back and scowled on her own.
He leaned back and shoved his hands in his pockets.
“Yes. Just try and control me, Apprentince.” He laughed dully before leaning awfully close to her face.
“You won’t get far..” He whispered before laughing and walking away.
The girl scowled deep and dug her fingernails into her arm. Aganist all judgement, her face was warm.
“Ugh!” She hissed.
She quickly made her way to her divison lab area but when she entered the door, she was greeted by pretty much everyone else.
“Kai!! I’m so so so proud of you!-!” Maya’s rambles were cut off by Hiraeith shoving her.
“Who would’ve thought THAT of all things worked? Your face is red.” She sarcastically said, rolling her eyes.
The long haired girl whined before slumping forward.
“Anyways, take good care of us since we are basically in your care.” She mummbled before walking off.
Then..
“Ack!!-!” She was bombared by a taller figure.
They basically cracked her ribcage as they squeezed tighter. Before finally pulling away, yellow eyes sparkled.
“Jesus, Astro.” She grunted.
They only sniffled, making the other flinch and stiffen. Were they seriously crying?!
“Are you crying?!” She frantically asked.
She wasn’t even really thinking when she grabbed their face and felt warm skin. She did feel warmer then usual, but that was probably normal for people when they cried.
“I..I’m just so proud..and you aren’t crying..even though Akari’s gone..”
“WHATTTT?!?”
The maroon eyed girl let go of her face and recoiled. Cry?!! Kai didn’t CRY.
“What?? Did they say something?” Suimuki asked.
The blood mage was even more shocked, Suimuki was out of her room?! Her lab?!! Now that was surprisng.
Honestly, she probably would’ve been less surprised if God walked into the room right now.
“I don’t cry. Never.” She hissed.
The golden eyed girl blinked a couple times before raising an eyebrow.
“You cry when your embrassed.” She coughed out.
The same heighted girl froze. No way. Did she really?! Did her face get so red that tears actually formed in her eyes?!
“Ha! Yes.” Suimuki seemed to read their mind before snickering and walking off.
Astro groaned and held her head before closing ome of her eyes and looking at her.
“Pretty sure that was abuse of power..” She added on.
“SHUT UP NO IT WASN’T.”
Tumblr media
Over a period of two weeks, pretty much everyone had adjusted to Kai taking over Akari’s postion. It really wasn’t that much of a difference, they had simaliar control styles.
Speaking of, Kai squinted at the bright scence and grabbed Maya’s hand as they finally pulled out of the sewer top. Now, they were up top.
People wearing fancy clothes conversed while walking through the streets. Some carriges and old cars roamed the busy streets, and more imporantly, kids in uniforms.
“Why are there so many different colors?! Which color was Akari’s, Kai?!” Astro whined before whipping towards their sister.
“Blue!~” The blonde next to her answered, grin in full force.
The middle child of the Adachi’s scowled and grumbled something under her breath.
“Why are you so intrested in that, anyway? We’re here for a misson, excluding Akari.” The red eyed sibling curiously asked.
Astro didn’t respond. The shorter glanced around before spotting something, a poster on a wall.
“Hold on..” She whispered.
Ace made a confused face before freaking out when she basically park-cored her way to the other alleyway. She walked closer to the poster and squinted.
It had her face on it, with a price underneath it.
“Great, a bounty on me.” She spat, rolling her eyes.
“Jesus christ!” A girl with white hair and green eyes scoffed.
“Could you BE anymore careless?” She contuined, after landing close to where the other was.
They only grunted and watched as the rest of the group showed up. Getting a rough head count, Maya, Astro, Noel, Autumn, and Aether.
“Just be lucky Aether and Astro aren’t having a godamn orgy right now.” The ginger haired one spat out, snickering sarcastically.
“Isn’t Kai a virgin.” Aether tried to ask like a question.
“Go fuck yourself.” They hissed.
The two said people only glanced at each other before rolling their eyes.
“Very funny.” Both of them said.
The youngest, yet leader of the group tiredly ran a hand over her face and eyes.
“In and out, guys.” They ordered before climbing up higher and spotting wear they would break into.
It was a quaint little place, having jewerly and other expensive things. There really wasn’t a reason for why this was a misson, they were just bored.
“Come on.” They carefully dropped down to sneak around into a cranny of the store.
It didn’t really matter, the workers seemed more occupied with their customers.
“Anything spefic we need?” Autumn questioned.
The white haired person shot her a look.
“Did you not hear what I said before? Take whatever you can.” She sarcastically asked.
The other girl’s eye twitched but the shorter didn’t notice. They took a pin out of their hair and undid the lock before swiftly sliding it back into place and carefully shuffling inside.
The rest of the group followed suit, some getting a better look around. The backroom was pretty abadoned, boxes closed and everything.
“Oh shit!” Noel quickly shifted over to where a music box was.
It looked..oddly familar..the tall girl undid the lock and a scence popped up. It had a blue round crystal in the middle with star outlines, fiting the navy blue background. A quiet, almost spacey tune played.
“Isn’t that one of Suimuki’s models?” The blue eyed and blonde haired male tilted his head.
“Probably is..” Kai mummbled.
They quickly got to work though, shuffling the hefty messenger bag they had on their waist onto the ground. The Lumine brother simply tossed it into the bag and yawned.
“Seriously?” Noel shot him a look.
“What?! I’m suporting my sibling! Plus, they basically stole this from her?!” He agressivly defended.
They simply raised their eyebrows and made a back away gesture. Meanwhile, the leader of the group cut open a box with a flourish. They tucked the knife to the side before digging through it.
Something cold touched their hands and they resisted the urge to recoil. They gently lifted it with their pale hands and gasped.
A, simaliar necklace to the one Kai had around her neck greeted her. Only it was brighter, and had more intericate designs on it. Her thumb carrsed the jewel and it refelected back into her eyes.
“Oo! Steal!~” Astro stuck their tongue out and snatched the necklace away from her.
She jolted and whipped towards her older, shocked. She dangled it and marveled at it.
“Nice find! It looks simaliar to the one Akari gave yo-!” She was cut off.
“Yeah I know! Put it in the bag, jesus..” She snapped before huffing.
After pouring a good amount of items into the bag, Autumn hoisted it onto her person. She shuffled it before making a thumbs up motion.
“Alright yes I-!” A unfamilar and unlucky voice filled everyone’s ears.
A girl with brown hair and light green eyes was carrying another hefty box of something. She seemed to be talking with someone on the phone. She stopped half-way when the girl layed eyes on the group.
“Jesusss christtt..!” Aether whined.
Everyone else had simaliar reactions, they could honestly just book it right now. The woman had her mouth open slightly before taking a deep breath. All the rogues glanced at one another, knowing exactly what she was about to scream.
“DOWNDWELLERS!!! ROGUES, GUARDS PLEASE HELP!! THEIVES!”
Kai immeditally darted out of the shop and into the streets. Most people had stopped and their eyes darted towards them, the rest of the group followed close behind.
“Fucking hell!!” Noel scoffed.
Everyone grimnaced when familar people in sheilds and uniforms showed up, immeditally reconqizing them.
“Stop, theives!!” They ordered.
“Hey!-!” Maya pulled the bright eyed leader down by her sleeve.
“Let me make the portal this time.” She whispered.
“W h a t.” They deadpanned.
The blonde scoffed and leaned aganist her.
“Pleaseeeee’?! I can do it this time! I promise!” She begged.
The white-nette still shot them a look before sighing.
“Fine! Whatever! Now c’mon!!” She breathed before taking off and catching up with the rest of the group.
“Ack!-!”
“Ah! Good to see you lovebirds decided to join us!” Autumn spat out with a sarcastic smile, glancing at the duo from the corner of her eye.
“Yeah! Honestly, could you have taken any longer?!” Noel sighed.
“Shut the fuck up! Maya-!” The youngest Adachi child scowled before turning towards the taller.
But she had already shuffled away and started making a ingarving with her pocket knife in the wall.
The rest of the group turned back and saw the crowd sepreating to let the guards through. The leader of the deliquents mummbled something and a circle of glowing red magic covered them.
“Releax..I’ve just made us invisble for now, so long as no one touches us.” She laughed nervously.
All of them were pretty crammed together, and shuffled messily and despreatly away from the crowd and towards Maya.
“God, I thought you didn’t trust her portals?! Why is she doing it?! Did she kiss your or something?!” Noel sarcastically asked.
Kai’s, whose hands were out in a spaled motion to hold the circle flatered. Her face turned red before she hastily fixed it.
“Fuck you! No..I..I just thought it would be nice if she practiced in real time some more..” She snapped before glancing around.
By now, the guards had passed through the area but they weren’t anywhere close to being safe. The younge bloodmage grimnaced as her one arm almost gave out under itself before sighing and breathing deeply.
The blonde and blue eyed girl grunted as she pulled back from the final ingraving with a flourish. She waited a second before a medium sized hole in the brick wall opened itself and tons of people stopped in their tracks.
“Done! Guys C’mon!-!” She smiled before turning towards were she thought she’d she figures but no.
The shield collapsed and Kai grunted before grabbing Maya’s left arm. She panted before glancing up into her eyes before dragging her into the portal.
The rest followed suit.
All of them grunted when Maya somehow tripped once they were out the other side, Kai falling ontop of her. The rest fell over the bodies on the floor and groaned.
“What the fuck.” Astro stummbled up and the rest finally got untangled.
“I think that went sucessful enough!~” The girl with pink highlighted tips smiled.
Everyone shot each other a look besides her but no one objected. Autumn glanced at the bag that was still secerly on her waist.
“And look at that, we’re down below! Are you proud?!” She added on before placing her hands near her face and turning towards Kai.
In all honesty, they were expecting them to be falling in the air or underwater, but no. They were happily pleased.
“Yes, good work Mayfield.” They shot her a grin before walking.
The entergentic expression on her face halted, wait.
WAIT.
“SERIOUSLY?!!” She eagerly ran up beside the shorter.
The rest of the group just watched on, slightly amused.
“Sure, why not?” They rytorically asked before finding more intrest in their hands.
Now, Maya, oh Maya was over the godamn moon. She had a massive smile on her face and hearts and stars practically strained her being.
“Your face is going to spilt in half.” Autumn quipped, a lazy smile flashing at her.
“SHUT UP!!”
Tumblr media
Everyone had already gotten back to the main house obviously, and had put away the units they had stolen. Funnily enough, Suimuki’s reaction to seeing her own music box was;
“Ew, not that prototype, that person must have no taste god, I’ve made way better ones.” She scoffed.
Now, Kai and Theriean were helping out in the dinner. They were making differnet types of meals, standing side by side. She could adimit, her feelings for him were getting a little more easy to control.
“Hey, confidante, can you pass the flour?” He finally spoke.
Actually no, scratch that. It was just because he wasn’t talking. Her nerves immeditally reved up and she felt weak just hearing his voice.
“Y..yeah! Here!..” She stopped what she was doing and passed him the bag of flour.
“Appericate it.” He simply replied before mixing some in.
Now it was more akward then anything, what were they suposed to say?! Just confess on the fucking spot, yeah NO THANKS!!
“Y’know, I was a little nervous for you when I heard you were going to be controlling everything down here. A sudden change isn’t good for anybody.”
What exactly did that mean?? They had to prove themself?? No, stop over thinking it.
“I agree with the sudden change part, but is it really that different?” They inquired, glancing at him from the corner of their eye.
The darker eyed male glanced back and she stiffened.
“Yes, Akari doesn’t falter under pressure. You do.” He said.
Falter under pressure?? Did he mean how she got embrassed easily??
“Wha..?” She mummbled.
The male sighed and stopped what he was doing. He came closer, step wise. She immeditally tensed at this and stopped what she was doing aswell.
“I’m not even doing anything, Kai..” He breathed, a small smile on his face as he came closer.
Her tempature did pick up, maybe it was the illness! Yeah! It was probably that and it would explain the sweating and shakyness..
Still though, she took a few quick hasty steps back before grunting when her back met the cabnit wall.
‘Oh god.’ She thought. ‘Oh no no no nononono-NO!!-‘ Her mind was frantic.
He came insanely close to her, resting his hands one by her face and the other lower to her shoulder. If they weren’t panicking before, they were really panicking now.
“..Haha..? All..all this j..just to..to prove..a point..?” She manged to get out.
‘Fucking moron.’ She hissed to herself.
“No, to see what your reaction would be. I like them.” He clarrifed.
His head tilted and his eyes squinted. Kai simply swallowed thickly and tilted their head up when he leaned forward.
“You…I..?”
‘STOP TRYING TO TALK JESUS CHRIST.’
Theriean only snickered before placing a extremely hasty kiss on her jawline before moving away completly. Their entire body seized and their face flushed.
They couldn’t even move, oh my god. How god damn embrassing and touch-starved.
“Your things still not fully mixed, love.” He gently reminded.
Her body seized further but this time mechically into action. Her red eyes refused to look in her crushes direction, while her mind was racing like this at least.
‘That was a hint, right?! Like one of those signs that your crush likes you back?! Jesus christ-!’
“Hey you two.” A familar, somewhat tired voice came into hearing.
“Hey, Hiraeith. We’re about to put some of this out, wanna’ ring the bell??” The other female asked.
She simply grunted and nodded, walking off in that direction. Kai finished stiring her indirgents and swiftly slid them into the old oven.
A bell rang and echoed throughout the entire building, and just like that commotion started. People came into the room, chatting with one another and sat down.
“I’m surprised we have a order for food.” He snickered.
The girl only smiled at him, he really was amazing. He obviously showed up after Kai did..
Tumblr media
“What? So you just want to join becauseeee’..?” Akari sarcastically asked, eyeing him up and down.
“Because I’m a blood mage, and can teach other forms of magic aswell..I don’t mean to be hostile, but you guys techincally aren’t suposed to have magic.” He answered.
The youngest of the Adachi siblings dug her fingernails into the corner of the wall she was peering out of. She couldn’t get a good look at him.
“I hate to break it to you, but we already have a blood mage.” Akari stated, unamused.
“Oh! Can I meet them??” He eagerly responded.
He also leaned forward, making the shorter uneasy.
“I..uhm..” She mummbled.
“ACK!-!!” Kai’s hands gave out and they tummbled into view.
The two people conversing turned towards them. When the shorter looked up, it seemed like Akari was trying not laugh.
“Hi, Kai, nice entrance.” She grinned.
They groaned and stummbled up to their feet. Meanwhile, Theriean stared at her curiously. She had the same white hair and red eyes as him.
“Is this…?” He glanced towards the closer girl.
The blue themed girl sighed and nodded. Meanwhile, Kai was staring at the male. He was so handsome. Her face was red..
“Yes, this is the other blood mage..Kai, meet Theriean, Theriean, meet Kai.” She answered before gesutring towards the two of them.
The male had a exicted smile on his face as he came closer and reached his hand out.
“Nice to meet one of my own kind! Like your friend said, I’m Theriean!” He said.
She only made a baffled expression and glanced at her older sister. The older laughed slightly before stepping twice.
“Haha! Her and me are sisters, Theriean.” She snickered.
He ‘oh’-ed and shook his head before nudging his hand closer. Her bright eyes darted down at it before clearing her throat.
“Right-uhm..Kai Adachi and uhm..it’s nice to meet you..?” She stummbled out before quickly shaking his hand.
She quickly pulled away when her hot skin made contact with freezing cold skin. The male seemed surprised as well before placing a easy grin on his face.
“If you don’t mind me asking, what type of blood mage are you??” He inquired.
They eyed him, he only tilted his head and smiled further. He was tall, and was wearing oddly fancy clothes. Probably a indicator he didn’t live down here.
Was he going to drag them up top once they answered?? Why exactly was he even here in the first place??
“Hyemopyromancey.” She flatly answered.
It should have been obvious..They ment, he was older after all. No way he didn’t get a guess or notice.
“Ah. Well, I��m intrested in also joining your order down here. Will you take me in? It would be good to have one of your own kind down here with you, yes?” He explained before leaning a little forward, hands behind his back.
Akari scowled and shoved her way infront of the younger blood mage.
“Hey, hey, hey!! Your talking to me about that, not her!”” She spat.
Theriean only smiled with his eyes closed and adjusted his posture.
“Right, my apologies.” He hummed.
Kai didn’t like the feel of this guy, but she could adimit, he was sort of..alluring. He had a sort of charm about him and he was good looking aswell-
‘STOP THINKING ABOUT HIS LOOKS DAMNIT!!’ She scolded herself in her head.
“I’ll only agree to let you join if you become Kai’s accomplice. Assistant, if you would. Other then that, get outta’ here.” Akari sighed.
The man only grinned and seemed estatic. Odd, no one would be that happy to join unless they didn’t have a frim grasp on whats going on down here.
“No- I’ll take you up on that! Kai, was it? I’ll be in your corner from now on!~” He grinned at them.
The female only tensed and turned red. Okay, he was attractive. Number one, he was probably extremely powerful. Number two, he had a very likeable personality, at least to them.
Number three: he was really hot.
“Kai??” Her older sibling broke her out of her trance.
The man tilted his head, eyeing her curiously. Now, wasn’t she just strange? She seemed to have alot of emotion, and seemed really nervous.
It was cute.
“Ah! So..sorry what??!” She frantically asked.
The heterocromidia eyed girl only raised an eyebrow, slightly confused.
“I was saying that he’ll help you teach, like with spells and things. He’s basically yours.” She explained.
The long haired white-nette tensed at that last sentence again. Hers?! What kind of saying was that?!
“Yes! I’m yours, so like I said before, please welcome me!~” He beamed.
They looked at both of them horrifed before hurringly clearing their throat.
“Okay!-yeah..sure!!..” They squeaked out.
Tumblr media
Dinner yesterday had went smoothly and now it was night time again. It had also been a few days, and Akari was back breifly. She explained that she was visting for the festival, which was happening soon, AKA today.
“I don’t know about this, Star…” The younger of the duo expressed their dobut, looking down at the clothes in their arms.
The yellow eyed girl shot them a look before shaking her head and pushing her.
“I don’t think so! You haven’t even tried it on! Come on!” She wasn’t having it.
The clothes they were holding were a red and white kammino. It also had sandals and a red hairband. A little too formal for them but..whatever.
“Fine!” They snapped before doing inside the dressing room and changing into it.
She sighed and quickly glanced at her reflection in the small mirror. Before pausing, she actually looked kind of..
“Pretty! Oh my god, your so pretty!” Astro squealed when she showed herself to her.
The maroon eyed girl huffed. The other white haired girl paused before grabbing her clothes and grinning.
“Okay wait here, I wanna’ show you what mine looks like!” They said before rushing into the changing room.
Kai sat down and flinched when she noticed a couple people in shop. She looked away when she saw them look in her direction.
“God please no..” They whispered.
Meanwhile, Misery turned to Elizebeth, both of them had the same look on their face.
“Is that..?” Misery started.
Elizebeth carefully peered around their sister. Yep, it was them. The youngest Adachi was sitting down on a bench and looking all pretty.
Their white hair with faint red stripes was neater with the red headband holding it in place. And their kamino was red and white which had flower and lace designs on it.
“Stop staring!” Misery called their attention back.
Elizebeth scowled but didn’t say anything. Their younger sibling sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose.
“Look, I’ve been wanting to ask this for awhile, but do you seriously have a crush on Kai?” She questioned.
“I..yes..? I’m not sure yet..” The younger shrugged.
Misery made a face but didn’t say anything. Meanwhile, with Astro she came out of the changing room.
She was wearing a white and yellow kaminno with a pretty designed star hair clip on her bangs. She also had sandals and the design on the kimnanno was mainly abstract shapes and lace designs.
“Soooooo??’ What do ya’ think?!~” She eagerly asked. doing a spin.
“It’s nice, it suits you.” She simpyl answered, offering a sharp smile.
The older smiled wider and checked herself out. They seemee geniuley in love.
“Right?! Ah it’s so pretty..~” They fangirled.
The younger sat up and stood up smoothly. She looked around, accidentally making eye contact with Misery. She saw her grimnace and whip her head away.
“Let’s get out of here.” She urged her sister.
Astro simply made a surprised expression before making a face.
“Don’t you wanna’ change??” She asked.
The girl made a wince expression before looking around.
“Fine, let’s change then get out of here.” She sighed.
She went into the dressing room changing into her regular clothes. The regular clothes consited of a baggy red short sleeved shirt, a soft zip up coat that was un-zippered and hanging down on her lower arms.
She also donned a pair of black, low-waist jeans. Her stomach showed a tiny bit, showing off her belly button pirecing. She also had black doc-matterns on that aplified her height a inch or two.
She removed the headband and tied her hair in a low pony tail. They came out of the dressing room and Astro grinned.
“You know, I think your the best looking person in our family.”
The other person blinked in surprise. A complament like that, from Astro??
“Wait..seriously..?” They inquired.
“Yeah I mean, you have red highlights in your hair, natural red eyeliner, and a perfect face. Akari and me both have scars on our faces.” They shrugged with their eyes closed.
Kai made a face and turned a little red. They only opened their eyes and laughed before going into the changing room.
That was..surprisngly nice of them. Astro always had a sort of complament-tease motive, but that seemed geniune. They seemed to just be in a more relaxed mood.
Either that or they haven’t drank any caffiene lately. They sighed and sat down on the bench, messing with their red necklace.
“Okay! Let’s go!” Just as they had sat down, the golden eyed girl popped out.
They blinked in surprise, that quickly?! She did a quick up and down survey of her, nothing seemed out of place.
“What’s the matter??” The taller tilted her head in slight confusion.
She simply shook her head before grabbing her clothes and walking to pay. Astro startled and quickly followed after her.
A girl with brown hair and dark eyes was working the casiher. She glanced over at the two and immeditally changed her posture.
“Ah! Two of the Adachi siblings..” She greeted as they both sat down their clothes on the counter.
Kai only grunted before looking away. They only spared her a glance.
“So, you two are going to the festival today?” She broke the silence.
The yellow eyed female smiled and nodded eagerly.
“Uh huh! It’s going to be so fun-I already saw people hanging up decorations!” She rambled a little.
The lady at the cash register looked taken aback for a second before smiling. The maroon eyed girl just shifted her eyes in between the two of them.
“Yes I agree. Your total is $75.50, by the way.” She notifed.
The younger sibling only flashed a tense smile.
“We’re paying in gold.” She responded.
The ladder blinked a few times before looking away quickly. She quickly looked back though and grinned nervously.
“Right! My apologies, I should have assumed better of you two.” She spoke before pausing.
She seemed to be doing the conversion in her head. The white-nette closer to her already knew the conversion, so they would call her out on it if it was wrong.
“Sixteen gold pieces, please!” She said, finishing.
Kai was surprised that she actually got it right. Not many people payed with gold down here, so many people didn’t know how to the conversion from coin to gold.
She dug in her pocket and pulled out a brown, stitched bag with a coarse tie ontop. She undid it and counted out sixteen pieces before re-tying it and stuffing it back in her pocket.
“Thank you!~” The worker said before pulling out a bag and putting the clothes inside.
The two of them shared a look before Kai grabbed the bag and nodded.
“Bye.”
Tumblr media
“Kai! Hurry up, We’re gonna’ be late!” Akari rushed her younger sibling.
The said girl only scowled slightly and stared back at her reflection. She was wearing the same kamino from earlier and now the festival was going on.
She looked down and saw her hands shaking violently. Her head also throbbed and she bit her lip and shakily folded her hands together.
“Here.” She slowly came out of her room.
Silence is what greeted her before..
“You look very pretty, Adachi.” Mars winked at her in reassurance.
The former flashed a tense and nervous smile at her. She survyed the room, almost everyone was wearing a kamino or formal wear. She looked to the person infront of her, Akari.
She was wearing a blue and white kamino and..ugh..she’s just too pretty..
Her kamino had a astrogoly and star design, fitting. The ‘collar’ of the kamino was also tighter then the rest. Her hair was in a neat bun with two longer pieces infront of her ears hanging down.
She also had a flower tucked into her hair, white.
“You look amazing.” Kai breathed out, softly chuckling afterwards.
The heterocromdic only smiled with her eyes closed and waved her off. Too pretty. Astro said they were prettier?! Fat chance.
“Says’ you! Mayfield, get over here.” She snickered before calling the blonde over.
The red eyed person shared a horrifed glance with her calm sibling. She only smiled and winked in response. What was with everyone and winking?!
“Yeah? Oh, love-!…” The blue eyed girl came into view before pausing and looking at the former.
The other girl pressed her lips into a firm line and looked away. Her body seized and held her breath before she finally broke the silence.
“You look..so pretty..” Maya said slowly.
‘HO-BOY.’ Her thoughts screamed at her.
“Thanks.” She blankly said.
Akari glanced in-between them. What exactly was the girl suposed say?!
Someone shoved Maya out of the way. Theriean then appeared. He did a quick up and down of them.
“Multiple people probably have already said this to you, you do look amazing, apprentince. I hope this isn’t offensive, but you look like you could fit right up top.” He smiled geniuley.
Her red face was extremely bright. Her eyes flicked shakily, she was happy. Unfourtanetly, a giddy smile forced its way onto her face.
“Ah..thank you so much..you look nice aswell..” They carefully planned out their words.
‘YOU LOOK NICE?! JUST SAY HANDSOME MORON.’ They sighed deeply in their head.
The male only grinned wider, he seemed happy aswell. He was about to say something else but was cut off by Mori.
“Alright are we gonna’ go or not??” She raised an eyebrow.
Everyone else shifted and started moving out the door. Meanwhile, Kai was in their own head. In their mind, they had a extremely giddy smile and were over the fucking moon.
“Kai?” His voice called.
They immeditally perked up and smiled nervously.
“Yeah.?” She inquired.
The male only smiled and tilted his head slightly. Now that the younger noticed it, he really didn’t have any other expressions. Sure, he rarely frowned or scowled, but sometimes he even glared with a smile on his face.
“You wanna’ explore the festival with me??” He offered.
She again, almost swooned over him. He was being extremely nice to them. He was so handsome and charming!~
Wait, stop pinning over him and answer his offer!!
“Yes!! Of course! Uhm-!” They answered way too eagerly.
The taller only smiled and grabbed her wrist. She quickly glanced down at it before quietly yelping when he started dragging her off.
The two wandered around a little bit, eventually ending up in a line for cotton candy.
“Blue cotton candy is defentily better then pink.”
“Agreed.” Oh my god, they actually had a basic conversation without her losing her mind.
The darker eyed male grinned once he was handed the cavity inducing stick. They only got one blue cotton candy, but it was huge. The female took a small piece of it and almost grimnaced ar how sour it was.
Yeah, she had lied earlier. She had found out that his favorite type of cotton candy was this flavor, that’s the only reason. Theriean hummed when he took a handful and cheerfully ate it.
A small smile formed on her lips as she watched him enjoy it. The pair quickly finished it off, him having almost all of it but forcing her to take the couple of parts that were left…
The interaction went like this:
“Ah, I’m done. Do you want the rest??”
“Ah-uhm..no thanks..”
“Oh come on! I’m not just gonna’ throw it out!”
“Mm..”
“Take it!”
“Wha-No! Just give it to a stranger or something!”
“No! Kai-Apprentince just-!”
“I’m telling you that I don’t-!”
“Kai.”
“…”
“Take it.”
“O-kay!!”
The plan didn’t fail completly, espically when he smiled with his eyes closed when she took another bite. And the second he looked away, they made a face.
Then, the duo came into the area of games. They glanced around at the prizes before spotting something.
“Is that..?” They trailed off, squinting at a stand.
A book, and not just any book.
One of KAI’s TOMBS.
“Holy shit.” They blurted out.
The taller man also narrowed his eyes at the stand. A familar girl with dark navy hair and skin was working there.
“Of course it’s Arashi.” She scoffed.
Theriean only rolled his eyes and grabbed their wrist. He walked towards the stand with them in tow and stopped near Arashi.
The red eyed girl behind the stand was grinning. Someone was throwing balls at something.
“Oh, sorry! Guess you lost-wanna’ try again?!” She mocked pity before grinning.
The shorter girls eye twitched and she shoved the person playing the game out of the way.
“Arashi.” She hissed.
The dark skinned girl blinked in surprise a few times before flashing a closed eyed smile with her hands clasped together.
“Kai, and your boyfriend! Good to see you!“ She cheered.
The shorter haired white-nette kinda tucked them behind him as he spoke. Them, peeking around him to get a good look at her.
“Why are you using their tomb as a gift?? You could’ve atleast asked, even though they probably would’ve said no..” He agressivly questioned.
The girl only had her hands behind her back and watched with half-lidded eyes and a grin. Making the youngers eye twitch again.
“Why? Because people seemed to be extremely intrested in it…strange. But!-If you want it back, take a shot at the game, ok?~” She shrugged before leaning forward.
The male looked like he was about to say something, but Kai stopped him. She digged through her pocket before raising a bag of coins.
The male next to her gaped before whipping fully towards her.
“There’s no way your actually about to take her up on this!!?” He frantically asked.
She simply shot him a look before shaking the bag.
“How many tries do you think..about $85.15..would get me.?” She asked.
Arashi actually looked horrifed for a second, eyes flicking around. Before quickly shaking her head and laughing.
“Ahahaha! I forgot how smart you are..but not smart enough to just take your stupid tomb from me! But fine!-Fork it over, girl.” She placed her usual wide grin on her face, teeth showing slightly.
Kai placed the heavy bag of coins in her hand before turning towards the game. It seemed like a throwing game, with a bunch of cans. Out of the corner of her eye, she could see Arashi open the bag and take a couple of coins out.
The said girl seemed to notice this as she flashed another closed eyed smile.
“Just for the first try. You know what to do, right?” She placed the bag down as she shuffled to slump aganist a wall of crates that were on a side she was on.
Kai grabbed a few baseballs, making Theriean hold the rest of them. She narrowed her eyes and messed with the ball in her hand before..
“*CRASHHH*” All of the cans on the first stand just knocked over
She quickly picked up the next ball and repeated the process two more times. It wasn’t really that eventful.
“Yikes..” The navy haired girl sighed before wincing.
She handed them back their sack of coins, barely taken any. They took it back before pocketing it.
“Here, nerd.” Arashi took the red tomb and tossed it towards the shorter.
She caught it and quickly turned around and started walking. She heard the sound of balls dropping and someone following behind her.
“That was impressive, apprentince.” He complamented.
The girl didn’t say anything or even react, only a small twitch of the lip. This contuined for a little while before she found a bench. There was a ocean, or deep river, and a small dock.
She sighed and walked towards the edge of the wooden drop off. She sat down and hung her legs off of it.
She heard shuffling and someone, AKA Theriean sat down next to her.
“Am I allowed to talk now??” He teasingly asked.
She immeditally blinked in surprise, reality now just hiting her. She had just been so rude!! She was so focused on showing him this spot..
“Oh my god..I’m..I’m really sorry!” They apologized, turning towards him.
Both of them jolted at the sound of fireworks going off. How nice, how sweet. Colors of red, orange, and green lit up the non-existent sky.
The man only turned towards them more and grinned.
“It’s alright. I get it, lip service with praise doesn’t really do any good..” He looked away.
They didn’t seem to find that any hunours as they frowned deeper. He turned his eyes back towards them and only snickered at their upset face.
“Don’t pout at me now! Here-..” He snickered before leaning closer, hand near their side hip but on the dock.
She flushed, well, felt herself flush. The only reason he could see it was because fireworks were still going off.
They tensed when lips connected with theirs, when exactly had he gotten that close?! He seemed to be pulling away, so they panicked. They lifted one of their hands and tangled it in his white hair.
They refused to not kiss back, so they did. He grunted before seeming to smile. After a minute, she pulled away, panting.
He also leaned back and looked at her, a affectionate smile on his face. She had a embrassed, grimnace on her face. Pink and red fireworks went off, showing their current moods.
“Im in love with you, Kai.”
“..I love you..so..so so..much..”
“I’m glad…”
“Ha..!”
“Come here.”
