CLOSED; nami you are terrible

[playerkills]

Who: Yozora Mikazuki (playerkills) and Shu Ouma (departing)
What: This is what happens to awkward turtles on Valentine's Day.
When: Forward-dated to Day 37, definitely before the ball because we're butts who can't wait
Where: Gefion Park
Rating: PG-13 in case phrases like slutty bitches come up again Yozora is horrid

[ Whenever Yozora drops by Gefion Park, the first thing she does isn't to look for a nice place to sit so she can do some light reading in peace, but the petting zoo, where all sorts of cute animals are kept. Only animals will keep her company this Valentine's Day. No one understands! No one understands but the cats around her, aww. If there are eight-legged horses, there can be cats in the petting zoo, I do what I want!

It's probably not a good time to disturb her. Can't you see how much fun she's having with her animal friends? ]

Here, kitty, kitty. [ She waves a toy in front of the cat for it to paw at. ] Meow... Meoooow... ahaha! Meow, meow~

[ Valentine's Day? What Valentine's Day? She's not lonely this Valentine's at all! What's Valentine's Day all about anyway!?! Whatever, these cats are cool. ]

Comments

[departing]

[Valentines day was something to think about for starters. Shu didn't feel like going if he had to go to the ball alone. That would just be embarrassing.

He thought he was over thinking things again. A walk would surely clear his mind.

The sound of kittens caught his attention. Eventually he saw Yozora there all by herself. He gave her a weak smile and waved.]

Hey, um.

Are you here all by yourself?

[playerkills]

[ It's Shu's question that surprises Yozora, prompting her to jolt up and yell, ] Show yourself before you speak up! [ Her loud voice scares not only the cats, but the birds and other animals around them... ]

Tch... if there's one thing you should know, Shu, I dislike roaming around alone. I'm with Tomo-chan.

[departing]

You have the wrong idea.

[Yozora's voice startled Shu so much he nearly fell over.]

Oh...is that why you have a kitten?

[He's just staring at the ground awkwardly.]

[playerkills]

Th... That's right! Tomo-chan loves kittens as much as I do, so I thought I'd bring her here.

[ She's staring at the cats awkwardly. ] We come here everyday. [ Only Yozora comes here everyday.

To pet the cats. ]

[departing]

They seem to enjoy your company.


Um...mind if I join you?

[Cats can be people too!]

I'm not really with anyone else right now. Could you at least let me be by your side?

[He's asking to be by your side and not the cats.]

[playerkills]

[ Why does he have to word it like that... Yozora is reluctant to give him an answer. She wouldn't mind, honestly. ]

... Do whatever you want.

[ She's back to trying to play with the cats, only she's holding back showing that side of her to Shu. ]

Aren't you going to the ball?

[departing]

Okay, then.

[At least he feels like less of a nuisance now. Yaay.]

The ball?

I don't know. I wouldn't mind going but...

[He's forever alone.]

Who would go with someone like me? I'm pathetic and I have no confidence.

[Self depreciation aw yeah.]

[playerkills]

I know. [ She stops waving the toy in front of one cat as she thinks. ] What about that girl? [ INORIIIII. ] I don't know how these parties work, but you often go with someone c-close to you, don't you? I saw it in a movie.

[departing]

Who? Inori?

[Inori sannn. ]

She's...not here right now. [:(]

That's what you're supposed to do, I think.

How about you? Are you going at all? To the ball, I mean.

[A movie... This is acceptable to him.]

[playerkills]

Ah. [ So her name's Inori. Not that she needed this information! ] Is that so. Hm.

Given the situation I'm in at the moment, I have no choice but to go. [ Just say it's a club activity, Yozora. ] I've never been to a ball before, s-so I'm a little nervous.

[departing]

Mhm. [He always gives too much information about Inori.]

She's the vocalist of a band named Egoist and she's really cute too.

Will you be okay by yourself?

[playerkills]

Tch. [ all the guys like the popular girls of course

Yozora, don't feel bad, you were introduced as a bishoujo in chapter 1... ]

What kind of question is that? It's not difficult to go on with what you're used to.

[departing]

[She's too good for him...It's okay.]

I'm a little worried about you, Yozora.

[Never want to leave you aloneeeeee. Baby don't make me cry.]

Are you sure you won't feel lonely there?

[playerkills]

[ Yozora stands up. ]

Why would you be worried? We've only known each other for so long. Don't pity me because I don't have any friends!

[ Deep breaths... okay. ]

... I say that, but... going alone is embarrassing. I don't even know what to do when I get there. On top of that, it's Valentine's Day ball. It's impossible, I can't go. I can't go alone.

[departing]

That's just how I am.

I worry about everything too much.

[Awkward....You don't hate him do you? He feels kind of ashamed so he'll just stare at something else nervously.]

Would you let me go with you?

[Yes. He asked.

No he's not stupid.

Okay, maybe he is stupid.

But he still asked.]

I-I mean....

[What is he saying now?

He's blushing way too hard for comfort.]

You don't have to listen to anything I'm saying, really.

[playerkills]

[ Shu why. Give Yozora a moment to face the other direction and think about it. ]

But you like Inori...san, and I'm not a good conversationalist. I'm not good at dancing, and this would be my first time or something.

Besides, you're not my b-boyfriend, and we're not even friends, so, so wouldn't it be weird?

[ She doesn't have a clue about these things. On another note, her ears are really red. ]

[departing]

[ Yozora why.

...He can't even deny he likes Inori-san. ]

Inori-san isn't here right now. It's not a problem, I think.

I'm not great at dancing either. At least I've never tried.... And...

It'd be weird, but isn't it better than going by ourselves?

1/2

[playerkills]

[ Terrible.

Also he has a point. ]

Mm... [ Honestly, she doesn't want to go at all, but that Meat forced her to... At least she can deal with Shu. ]

If anything goes wrong, it'll be your responsibility!

[ No she's never going to turn around and show him her pout ever. ]

[playerkills]

If I'm going to live like a normal for a night, I want to do it naturally!

[ No don't say that. ]

[departing]

[How is this suddenly his responsibility? Well, he doesn't see anything wrong with that but ok.]

You'd really go with me? I'm happy.

[ THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVERRR ]

S-S-Should we practice dancing? I don't want to embarrass myself too much.

We're both new at it too and I think it'd be a good idea.

Unless...you're against it.

[playerkills]

[ wh

turns around ]

Practice?! [ Well, she doesn't want to be laughed at, that's for sure. BUT DANCING... SHE FREEZES UP AT THE THOUGHT. ] Th- Wh- Um, I-!

[ Then she looks away. ] ... I suppose it's a skill that we have to learn one way or another.

[departing]

[Oh hey cool she agreed to it. THEY'VE GOT THIS.]

We should get started right away then.

[Then he just pulls Yozora's hand over so he can look at her properly.]

You're supposed to stay close to me, I think. We're not dating but... that's the idea...

[This is hard.]

[playerkills]

[ She's pulled along, but... her hand? Seriously? Why the hand! She is screaming inwardly do they have to hold hands oh that's part of the dance so she can't complain. But now he's saying unnecessary things!! ]

D-dating--wait! You never told me about that!

[ Oh great now she's

accidentally making eye contact horrible ]

[departing]

[This is all part of the dance so just be awkward and improvise! ]

Told you about what?

[He doesn't remember saying anything about them dating.


Sudden eye contact. You do not look okay, Yozora-san.]

Is everything alright?

[playerkills]

Yeah. I just, I don't know if I can do this.

[ ... Awkwardly but gingerly places a hand on his shoulder. While all the cats are watching. ]

It's like this, isn't it?
