first dia ❈ uh-oh who let her near the stove─

[Voice]

Where...?

[The voice seems to go quiet, save a few names being muttered under her breath. Though the only two that may even be remotely familiar to anyone is "Chie" and "Naoto-kun" before she notices the book her hand was lying on earlier. She seems a little hesitant when she picks it up.]

─ Where am I? [She seems to pause a moment to thinking.] I know this can't be the inn, so...

Um, excuse me but... can anyone hear me?

[...This new girl doesn't seem to have realized that the journal is a communicator.]

[Action]

[People in Community Housing Building 4? There is a confused-looking teenage girl wearing a new feather gown in the kitchen of the third floor. You may want to steer her away from the cooking supplies... and fast. That is, if she hasn't begun wandering around on her own already. Feel free to spot her elsewhere! ~~enjoy the nightmares, souji-kun.~~]

...She was sent back. It happens, but...it's usually someone people grew close to who's returned home.

The Malnosso have a twisted sense of humor, and they aren't afraid to show it.

[...He'd seen people come and go over the journals, but said nothing--he wasn't sure what to say, when it was people he didn't know at all...when he hadn't even found the time and place to talk with them. It didn't help that his first trip to the enclosure was short, fleeting--and any memories he hadn't sorted out still beyond vague.

He shakes his head a little, eventually stops and glances at the 'store' in front of them. It wasn't the right word for it when everything was free, but...] ...Ah, this is the place.

...Souji.

[She knows all too well that look in his eyes, even if he doesn't say anything about it. There's a silent hurt in his gaze as he speaks. Pain, and anger. It doesn't take a genius to notice that, but still...

Before they walk in, regardless of how embarrassing this may be due to her current attire and the fact that it's in public, she gives his hand a faint squeeze. He doesn't have to carry this burden alone. Since she and Naoto-kun were here, they'd continue to help shoulder it with him. That's what friends (and more in her case) were for, right?]

Let's go look, then.

[She smiles. Well, might as well try and find her things...]

[It's hard, being the most empathic of the team, and yet being unable to encourage people without unintentionally harming them. He may have a deeper understanding of whoever he talks with, and he may have the best ways to express himself at his disposal, but this... ...It was probably a good thing that it was her he was subtly unveiling this bitterness to; though he may place enough faith in Naoto to entrust her with some of his share of the pain...

It was to her that he'd reveal himself to at his worst. Her alone.

...It doesn't take him long to notice the faint pressure around his hand. He looks back at her, his hurt feelings curbed enough for him to finally form a smile.]

...Yeah. Let's.

[And in they go, so they could finally get her clothes back. Surely, she was getting tired of that sundress...]

[She knows, Souji... She may not be the most empathic, but seeing others hurting because of someone's friend disappearing and not knowing what to say must have affected him greatly. Yukiko remembers November well, and the several nights she partially lied to her parents about staying at a friend's house to keep them company since they were alone.

She doesn't actively let go until they are already inside, looking around. It's kind of obvious that she isn't going to leave him alone for a while, especially after that little smile. That was a relief, though... seeing it again.

But yes, she is getting tired of that sun dress. So looking around she goes until suddenly look, there's her summer casual shirt-! Wait, what's that underneath them...?

Uh oh.]

[Who could ever forget, with the mayhem in the days after his cousin's kidnapping in mind? None of them would, surely, especially after what happened in the following month... But right now, he's just glad that Nanako's okay again.

And he'd rather it stay that way; if they brought her here, he's not sure if he can take another incident on that scale.

Regardless, he's... going to be oblivious to the discovery, since he's digging around for those black skirts she'd always worn, and her winter shirt if he could. Very, very oblivious. Painfully, even. If there was anything that Souji could be at a bad time, it's 'distracted'. This might just be the worst time for it...]

[None of them, indeed. Two months later, and Nanako was still safe back home. Maybe even...giving her tips on how to cook eggs when she visited every now and then. Not even Nanako-chan had forgotten the omelet cooking competition between them... irk.

B-but now wasn't the time to think of that! Because she just found a certain item from home, and Souji looked like he could use a laugh right now.]

Hey, Souji-?

[Good thing for distractions, because he'll find a certain pair of glasses on his face as soon as he looks up.]

...snrk. F-found some of my-!

[> You get the sense that she may be close to one of her laughing fits. Wait, there are two of them?!]

[...Wait a sec. Was this--?

...He slowly...slowly reaches up to the bridge of his nose, and finds a certain bulge has been added to it, not to mention his vision was suddenly obscured by the 'lenses'... ...Oh god. Were these the--

...They were, weren't they.

...Yukiko? As is wont of him to do and make it very clear that he's spent way too much time with you, he's suddenly snickering himself. The fact that there was two of them doesn't quite click in his mind...yet.]

[Yep, it's those glasses Teddie had initially given her. Or were they the spares he made for Kanji in case of throwing them off the stage? Eh, who knows. Same basic gist.

She notices the snickering, but doesn't seem to mind it. After all, it was better than him being so down about things he couldn't change yet.

...and then they Hyena mode happened.]

[> ...]

[> You just got gag glass'd.]

[...Yes, yes he did. And somehow, he can't bring himself to care right now--he could feel like he just did something em-bear-assing later, when he's actually aware of what the heck's going on.

They can be hyenas together--it's what helped them in December. Why wouldn't it help them now? XD]

...Where did you...snrk...find these?

Edited 2012-09-25 12:19 (UTC)

[Well good. Because he really should smile more, since it's so cute when he does- ...Nope, that was not a faint hint of pink on her cheeks. Too busy laughing to think about it.

Double hyena all across the 'stooooooore'...]

T-they were under one of my shirts- pffffffhahahaha!

[...Wait. There was two of those glasses?

...Excuse him for a sec, he needs to take the ones that're on his head, stare at them...]

[...Then he looks at Yukiko, and stares at the glasses that are over her eyes.]

[...]

[...Don't mind if he busts out laughing again. Oh, god, all the shenanigans they could get up to, with these glasses...with two of them? They could probably sneak them onto people they knew in Luceti, probably even get some laughs out of them, too...

It was a good day to finally have her around, clearly. Such a beautiful, beautiful day.]

[Nope, the hyena cannot be the pot to call the kettle black. She's back to laughing herself too, unable to stop smiling as she tries to look while in the midst of a giggle fit.

Of course, this means she removes the glasses for now so she can see... but to see Souji's smiling face, she can't help the red crossing her cheeks--

Oh right, looking for her clothes. Better do that.]

[He hasn't laughed so hard in such a long time. Really, after some of the mayhem that'd hit recently, this was the first thing he really needed. And she didn't disappoint, not with what she'd brought with her. She hasn't changed one bit...and there's no telling just how grateful he is for it.

...Oh, right. There was something they needed to do, wasn't there?

Yeah, he'll just pick himself up off the floor now and sift through the skirts again. It doesn't take too long after that until he finds a few to pass along to her; he'll hold them out, while facing away, just to make sure he doesn't accidentally peep on her...because yeah, she's lacking a few other things, too. orz]

[It would be a sad day indeed if she ever did change. Who would laugh at even the smallest things with little provocation or be too much of a derp not to realize things in certain subjects yet point out what else was missed?

She mutters a thank you before going from the shirts to the other things- !!

At least after a moment, she finds those...few other things. Thank you, Souji. Thank you, Lady Luck. orz]

[To say the least of it? It'd leave him a little hollow on the inside. It just wouldn't be the same... because those are amongst the qualities he enjoys the most--no, loves about her. If he could brighten her day in whatever manner he could, it's only fair that she be able to do the same in her own way.

...Even if it was still pretty embarrassing, like the gag glasses.]

...There's a place for you to dress up in the back. [Might as well bring that up now, before she asks.

...Oh. Wasn't there something he was missing?]

[And this is why it is not a thing. Well, except the gag glasses part. They aren't that embarrassing, though. There are worse ways to embarrass your significant other...

She nods, beginning to head there before pausing.]

... I meant to ask earlier, but... [It kind of slipped her mind with the whole...sundress thing.] Why do you have wings?

[Yukiko, don't look over your shoulder--]

[...Oh, yeah...that. He blinks a little, peeking back ~~and making sure to keep his eyes from going lower, sob~~.] ...The Malnosso thought it was a neat idea to put wings on our backs.

Suffice to say...it wasn't.
