Title: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 15, 2015, 12:33:31 AM: (http://www.whudat.de/images/bangkok_penthouse_apartment_03.jpg)
Nice place to live in.

Field Status
A penthouse suite owned by Isabella Hope and Miyuki Himura.
Nice view. Wow.

Home Fields:
Home Fields are areas where certain player characters reside. To enter them, you must meet specific affinity requirements: 15 or more total affinity with all characters and a certain amount of affinity with residents.

Requirement:
3+ Affinity with: Isabella Hope / Miyuki Himura

What is a field?
A field is an area where events between characters or even individual characters may happen. As replies to these posts, characters may chronicle events that transpire between each other which would often be as a result of or due to a Cardfight. Field events are great ways to develop characters as well as character relationships. Field events, for example, could include a Cardfight as part of a rivalry between two individuals. It can be something as simple as a simple outing or meeting that then leads to a game of Vanguard. Or something that would greatly move the plot, a fight between someone of the heroic affinity and someone of the villainous affinity.

Remember, Cray is looking for the best of the best to be a leader. This does not mean that the leader has to be filled with good intentions, its anyone who the cards seem to decide is fit. Heroes can do as much as they can, but without villains pushing the story forward with their schemes, there isn't much to save. So if you are on the villainous side, use these areas to move along with your plots and schemes. You may ask others to come and roleplay with you and anyone can post in these areas, there is no limit other than that of being logical and simply just being respectful to your fellow fighters.

Any character that you interact with during field events may get affinity +1 or -1 with you.
Certain fields may have special events and things happening there in order to start up some action.

Post events that transpire below based on you character's own perspective, and just have fun with it!
Good luck!

Post by: Hope on September 15, 2015, 12:43:51 AM: Upon arriving home, Isabella put her purse down on a table and quickly rushed up to the room. Nurses lived with them in their home, ones that worked with her mother, the Chief Nurse in order to take care of Miyuki. On the way, a nurse had given her a thumbs up, showing that Mi-hime was completely fine. This was the daily routine. Hana's heart is unable to wait when it comes to knowing about Mi-hime's state so she asked that the first nurse that saw her as soon as she got home would tell her in that fashion.

Mi-hime had gotten into a deep sickness some time after the War of Liberation had ended, a short bit after Hana had made her confession. It was unfortunate as they were unable to do much as a couple as a result, and it also drove Hana to a deep feeling of despair. Hana had moved out and bought this penthouse in order to keep the fan's from crowding all over the Espoir Manor as well as for Miyuki's sake. Her parents didn't know. They worked hard enough as it was, so worrying about Miyuki would burden them even more so Hana took it upon herself to take care of Miyuki and told Mr. and Mrs. Himura that Miyuki would be tagging along on the tour.

For their year anniversary, they didn't go anywhere. They just stayed home and celebrated. Despite the feelings of sadness, it probably the happiest year of Hana's life as it was spent together with Mi-hime.

"Mi-hime?.." Hana silently called out as she reached the room.

Post by: Crystalia on September 15, 2015, 12:56:22 AM: Miyuki lay on the bed, still half asleep. The sickness kept her in bed for most of the day, and she slept quite often. Not that it helped her get better, it just seemed to stop her from getting worse. Nurses came in occasionaly to check up on her, and were nearby in case anything major happened.

She heard the sound of someone approaching the room, and heard someone calling her name. "Hana?" She replied, assuming that it was her. The nurses never called out her name when they were entering. "How was your day?"
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 15, 2015, 01:04:11 AM: "Thank goodness, you're fine." The amount of times that Hana has said that is most likely equal or more to the days that have passed.

She sat beside Mi-hime and tried to see if anything was significantly different and that she was actually fine. The nurses were obviously reliable, it was nearly impossible for them to miss anything seeing as how they worked for Mrs. Espoir herself, but Hana always wanted to confirm it with her own eyes.

"It was great today, I was able to meet up with Harooka, even teased him to the point of him getting a nosebleed. We also listened to my song, and he liked it. The build at the construction site finished so we met there. You know Cero right? You told me he was guy crying in the forest? Yeah, he's the owner of that building." Hana was smiling as she told Miyuki about her day. The smile suddenly faded though and Hana grew silent, but she spoke again.

"You're feeling ok right? Are you feeling any better?" It was obvious that she was very worried in every word. A whole year and it hasn't been any different, her feelings for Mi-hime remained the same. Still, she was trying to remain cheerful, it was an idol's job to make others smile after all.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 15, 2015, 01:23:30 AM: Miyuki relaxed, and listened to Hana talk. Hearing about Hana's day was always a highlight for her, particularly since she couldn't go out that often. If Hana hadn't been here for her, she probably wouldn't have coped. Thanks to Hana she had support, and a reason to try to get better.

"Sounds like a fun day~ Don't tease Haruka too much though, the poor guy hasn't seen Yukino in awhile right? And don't worry about me, I'm fine! I'm not feeling that bad today either. I-i wouldn't say that I've gotten better, but I haven't gotten worse."

She struggled to sit up, her body protesting at it's sudden usage. She looked at Hana, holding her hand. "I'll be fine ok? Plus if anything bad were to happen, I'm sure the nurses would notice and help. So don't worry yourself too much ok?" That was the last thing she wanted, to make Hana worry more. All she did was be a burden to Hana, if she worried her too much as well that'd be bad.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 15, 2015, 01:47:54 AM: "Right... I won't..." Well, she probably will, when Mi-hime isn't around at least.

"Oh, right..." Hana leaned over towards Mi-hime and gently placed her hand on her lap, even moving her hand a little, feeling her lover's soft skin. Her other hand was placed on her back, and she pulled her close. Hana's face was now very closed to hers and she inched closer and closer to where she would usually stop, but this time she didn't. She continued on and gave Mi-hime a kiss. It wouldn't break the spell, but she hoped that it would help. She was Isabella Hope to everyone else, but Mi-hime was he only one who truly got to see Hana, seeing the other side to the popular face of the Vanguard idol world. Hana's lips parted with hers after an eternity, and she had a serene grin across her face. Just like her song, it wasn't acting, but her genuine feelings.

"Have to do that every once in awhile haha..." Hana blushed a little as sat back on her chair, touching her lips with her fingers.

"Oh yeah, I also tried your suggestions with my Bermuda Triangle deck today and they seemed to work pretty well, thanks."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 15, 2015, 02:07:22 AM: "A-ah, that's good" Miyuki replied, blushing. She had frozen for a second when Hana had kissed her, but calmed down and enjoyed it. It wasn't often anymore that Miyuki revealed her feelings fully, but with Hana she masked her emotions less. Not that it would probably work even if she did try to hide them, Hana knew her too well for that. Still, moments like these were what kept her going. It let her ignore her frustration about not being able to do much, calming her down.

From the bottom of her heart she truly loved Hana, and was extremely thankful to her as well. That was why she-- no, now was not the time to think about it. Mentally shaking her head, she turned towards Hana more.

"Oh yeah, do you have any plans for tomorrow? If you meet anyone I know, tell them I said hello." Even if she hadn't kept in that close contact with some of them, she hoped that they would at least remember her. She debated for a second, then decided to say it.

"The nurses think I can go out in a few days time. They agree that I shouldn't stay at home the whole day, though they weren't going to let me out again after last time until another few weeks. But yeah, I think I've managed to talk them into letting me go out sometime before next week. An exact day hasn't been decided yet, but that'll be good."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 15, 2015, 02:20:39 AM: "You'll be able to go out?! That's great!" Hana almost hopped out of her seat.

"We can go somewhere then! An actual date and stuff. Or maybe just hang out and bring friends along! Sugoii!" She called her hands and started giggling. What she wanted now more than anything was for Mi-hime to feel better so that they could perform together on stage and that she could fulfill her promise of helping her become an idol. Once Mi-hime can dance and sing again, she'll without a doubt become really popular as well. She was cute, cool, strong, and omg everything about her was great, no doubt. Hana kept clapping, "Yay! Yay! Then we could figure out what's causing this too, and then- nah we'll just get rid of it overall and then you can become an idol!"

They could write songs together, sing together, dance together...
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 15, 2015, 02:36:53 AM: "Yes, it'll be good hopefully~ Just remember that this is just a test run for the day, as I was able to convince the nurses that I'd be ok."

She couldn't hide her excitment however, going out for the day wasn't something she'd been able to do very often recently, and she really hoped it'd be ok. She just also didn't want to get Hana's hopes up too high, in case the nurses weren't happy with how the day went. As nice as the nurses were to her, if it was regarding her health they were extremely strict, although that was probably a good thing.

She stretched slightly, making sure that her body felt fine for now. As Hana had said, perhaps, if the sickness went away she could become an idol like she dreamed. "If it will go away" she thought, her mood sinking slightly. However her mood didn't last long, as Hana was there, and she didn't want to appear down in front of her.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 15, 2015, 04:34:27 AM: "Oh!" Hana ran downstairs and grabbed her bag, quickly running back up the stairs and into the room.

"You feel better when you play Vanguard don't you? Let's have a bunch of games. We can practice performing like this." Hana moved a table between them and placed her deck face down on top of the table.

It went well, Mi-hime seemed like she felt a lot better when she was playing, but sadly that wasn't the same story as when she wasn't. The games were back and forth, overall a lot of fun. They didn't just play with the Pr<3ims, but other decks as well. They achieved extraordinary feats, like rearguards with 74000 power, or two with more than 30000 at the very least. They enjoyed each other's company and talked about anything as time passed by quickly. By the end of it, Hana was laughing and having lots of fun, but she was also tired as well, just about ready to fall asleep.

"You should sleep soon too, Mi-hime..." She suggested.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 15, 2015, 04:46:23 AM: It had been a bit since she had played Vanguard, and the games were a lot of fun. Whenever she played Vanguard, she felt better as well, as if her illness was subdued during the games. After several games of fun, they stopped playing, as Hana was looking very tired.

"Yeah, I'll go sleep as well" she answered. The illness returned in full after the games, dizzying her slightly, and despite sleeping for lots of the day she felt tired again. Very tired. "Yes, sleep would be a good idea" she managed to say, before her eyes closed.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 15, 2015, 04:59:09 AM: "Haai..." Hana nodded as well, waiting for Mi-hime to fall asleep first.

She stood up and gave her kiss on the forehead before heading to bed as well.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 16, 2015, 11:48:06 AM: Isabella invited Harooka early on in the morning for a bit Vanguard practice to replace her morning routine. She was able to prepare a breakfast for three as well as some coffee on her own. After a few games and testing a few cards out with her decks, Isabella was able to make a few good changes.

"Arigatou Harooka." She said as she poured coffee into his mug.

Aside from the nurses, Isabella didn't really have actual helpers around the house. The nurses mostly stayed upstairs in order to take care of Mi-hime and usually visitors wouldn't be allowed up there unless they were given and OK to visit Mi-hime. Isabella sat down on her side of the table, putting ketchup on her egg as she picked up her fork and began to eat.

"I saw you at the park yesterday. How was that? Haha."

Post by: NeoBuster on September 16, 2015, 11:51:09 AM: Neo left the slums and decided to go to Hana's house to see how she was doing.

When he got there Neo rang the doorbell to see if anyone was home
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 16, 2015, 11:54:29 AM: Haruka took a sip of the coffee, after thanking Hana with a nod. The morning was brisk today, but it was nice enough.

Hmm... Did she learn this from Butler-san!? It's great!

"Ahh, thanks again. It tastes great." Haruka took another sip before scooping up his messily laid cards and stacking them up in a deck. He had been going through the motions of playing Blast Bark and Dauntless again, but sadly was unable to take a game off of Hana all morning. It sort of stuck with him that he wasn't as good as her by a longshot, but that was fine with him.

"So, Miyuki, how's it been up here? Haven't heard from you since, uhh, before the New York trip I think. Things been going, eh... smoothly?" Haruka asked with slight grin, cutting into his eggs and taking a bite after peppering them. Haruka already had enough salt in his diet.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 16, 2015, 12:03:22 PM: For once, Miyuki had woken up at a reasonable time, and was in an alright condition. She got out of bed, and noticed Hana, talking with someone. "Is that Haruka" she thought. "Haven't seen him in awhile". After changing, she went downstairs, and sat at the table. Hana and Haruka seemed to have been playing a few games of Vanguard, and were just finishing up.

As breakfast was served, she thanked Hana, and started to eat. More than usual, she was trying to seem normal, considering there were other people around. Hearing Haruka's question, she paused for a bit, then turned towards him.

"Oh, I've been alright. Things have been going well, and yeah, it's been a bit. How have you been?" Not quite lying, which was good enough. "I see you still love your coffee" she said jokingly, remembering the first time she'd seen him drink coffee. Still, it was nice seeing one of her older friends, she hadn't been able to keep in contact with most of them, at least not recently.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 16, 2015, 12:11:45 PM: Hana was quite glad with Mi-hime being able to join them for breakfast in the morning. A good way to start the day added with Vanguard and having Harooka over. It seems that Mi-hime was doing alright as it was at the moment, nothing totally wrong with her, but still Hana had to check if she needed anything.

"Mi-hime you're okay right? Tell me if you need anything-" The doorbell rang, causing Hana to abruptly halt with her statement and stand from her chair, "Oh, excuse me, let me go get that." Before running to the door, she placed her hands on Mi-hime's shoulder and asked, "You'll be okay right?..."

After a few seconds as if she were praying, she went for the door and opened it for the visitor. "Hi Dogebuster," she waved at him, moving aside to let him enter the home.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: NeoBuster on September 16, 2015, 12:16:43 PM: "Hey Hana" Neo said walking inside.

Neo hadnt been to Hana and Miyuki's house before.

"Nice house Hana" Neo said

Neo then saw Haruka and Miyuki

"Hey guys" Neo said
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 16, 2015, 12:24:33 PM: After chewing and swallowing his food, cause Haruka was polite like that and his relatives were very big about manners, he looked up as Hana left to retrieve the visitor at the door. It seemed Neo had made an appearance, but before addressing him, he felt he should probably provide an answer to Miyuki.

"Hmm, I've been good I guess. Doing the usual. Working at the amusement park..." Haruka trailed off at that last part, not wanting the remember he had to work part time there last year there during the school year, almost wanting to puke. He took another sip of coffee to keep the awfulness levels from rising.

"But my uncle said I could work at his cafe during the school year, considering it's closer to the school than the actual amusement park." He made mention of his new work place, not exactly inviting people to come rushing into the quiet atmosphere he had, but it would be nice to see school friends stop in and order something---

He immediately regretted the idea, remember he was supposed to show up in vest, dress shirt and tie, slacks and loafers everyday. He would be a walking boy from those host clubs at this rate. Haruka was suddenly wishing he had said nothing about his job at all. At least they can't find it...

"Er, yeah. Coffee is still my one true joy in life, besides Vanguard and-" He cut himself short, sort of just closing his mouth and taking one last sip, hastily putting the mug down. These conversations always turned awkward for him by his own choice.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 16, 2015, 12:43:44 PM: "Yeah I'm fine" she answered Hana. She continued listening to Haruka, taking in what he said. "Oh yeah, School". She sighed inwardly, that was another thing the illness had taken from her, she didn't attend a school, any education was handled by helpers or the like.

Clearing the thoughts from her mind, she shrugged. Nothing she could do about it. Noticing the pause at the end of his sentence, she wondered how he was going with Yukino. Or exactly what was going on with her in general. "Sounds good, maybe I'll come by the coffee shop to see you working". If she was ever able to. "Would be interesting to see I'm sure".

Hearing someone at the door, she glanced over, watching Hana open it. Another figure she recognised entered, the dog food eating Neo. "Hey Neo, how have you been?" She hadn't properly seen him in ages as well, then again that could be said about everyone she knew.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 16, 2015, 12:50:03 PM: Hana sat back down next to Mi-hime, making sure she was alright as always before relaxing herself. While at the door, she was able to hear Harooka's stories of work, basically his entire resume. An idea popped into Hana's head.

"So like coffee, I'm glad you like it. Butler-san taught me how to make them before I moved out. If you want, I can teach you how too for your job at the coffee shop. It's actually his family's own recipe which he shared to the Espoirs."

In terms of having to work, Hana never thought that she would be able to relate, but as of recently, she has been able to more than ever. "Doing stuff myself is kinda hard, but I'm getting the hang of it. Cooking things other than eggs was the hardest to learn. Other than that things seem to be pretty stable.... well mostly, idol work can be kind of choosy sometimes, especially when I get writers block or schedule conflicts." She put sugar into he own coffee mug as well as a dash of creamer before mixing. She then turned to Miyuki and got her coffee ready for her as well, "Here you go Mi-hime," she said as she slid the mug towards her. "But, its really worth it, coming home to Mi-hime everyday... it reminds me who I'm working for."

After that, Hana realized that she had only prepared a meal for three so she quickly stood up and headed to the frying pan. "Dogebuster! Please have a seat, I'll make stuff for you in a minute."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: NeoBuster on September 16, 2015, 12:58:42 PM: "Thanks Hana" Neo said taking a seat

"Im doing good" Neo said. I was Hana's bodyguard during her tour. It was alot of fun. Decided to come back, buy a house and go backto school" Neo said

You guys look well, How have you guys been? Its been a year" Neo asked
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 16, 2015, 01:06:50 PM: Haruka was grateful to Hana for offering to teach him how to make the legendary Butler-san coffee, so he nodded in agreement. He was of course very much up to learning it before working at the cafe, considering he would be there nearly everyday working. As a sort of way to pay off the debt he owed to his family for taking care of such an oddball like himelf, but also a little extra money on the side never hurt.

"Hmm, Neo! Yeah, come over here man, sit next to me. It's been good, of course. Working, fighting, sleeping. The usual." He shrugged, not wanting to reiterate all of what he told Miyuki a moment ago. Finishing his breakfast, he stood up and walked over to the coffee pot on the counter pouring another cup. He was still mostly exhausted from waking up earlier than usual.

Looking at the steaming cup of coffee, he spins on his heels and leans against the counter top, sipping the steaming coffee. Normally it'd be scorching hot for people but Haruka got so used to it by now he could probably eat lava and only be a little discouraged by it's heat.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 16, 2015, 02:28:14 PM: It was lively breakfast time and Hana was glad that Mi-hime was able to talk to people, but it was time for her the nurses to check on her again, plus Hana had to go to Shop Handsome today for a charity event. After the meal she walked over to Mi-hime and carried her up princess-style back into her room, gently laying her down on her bed. After a bit conversation, the nurses had arrived and she also received a text message saying that Neo's paycheck was on its way. She made her way back down the stairs, and peeked out the window, calling two men and her Labrador who had just gotten home in time from their walk.

"Alpha-san, Beta-san, are you both free to keep Neo company. His paycheck is going to arrive in the mail soon." she peeked out of he door as she asked them.
"Yes maam!" They both saluted in unison, their strict discipline and code of honor coming from their 20 years of service in the U.S Armed Forces as well as a 10 additional working in the FBI, being informants to the President himself.
"Alpha, its time for us to enter the first stage of the mission!" Beta quickly tackled the door open and back flipped onto the seat next to Neo's. He then sat down intensely and started drinking his cup of tea, his serious and powerful area being released through his sunglasses.
"Roger that, Beta, I'll take your back." He quickly picked up the Labrador, holding it gently in his hands, but with GREAT CARE. Then he swerved past the door, and slid under the table, and jumped over the ENTIRE LIVING ROOM, landing on his feet and placing the dog back into the dog house.

"Woof."

"...Mission Accomplished..."

With that, Hana knew that both Mi-hime and Labrador were in great care. She could always rely on Alpha and Beta. She retrieved her purse which was hanging near the door and turned back to Haruka, "Hey, I'm going to Shop Handsome today for a charity event, wanna come?" She did the cute idol thing with her pose and everything. Its time to be Isabella again!

"Also, Dogebuster, they'll keep you company til your paycheck arrives, sorry for having you wait here. We'll meet up with you later if poosible!"
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 16, 2015, 02:38:30 PM: Well, Haruka honestly had nothing to lose hanging out with Hana for a bit longer. She was going to be in her Isabella persona today so he probably wouldn't actually be with her most of the time, probably standing with the crowd "ooohing" and "aaaahing." Neat little fan stuff. Haruka shrugged, gulped his coffee and said, "Sure, why not?" With that, he grabbed his jacket and shoes and standing by the door, waiting for Hana's departure signal.

He spent a majority of that time flipping through his cards wondering about how to adjust the deck. Maybe more critical triggers? Maybe he needed to stop moping over Overlord? That second comment was uncalled for in his head, but Haruka really did need to figure out how to bond over his new units and stop worrying over the old. Besides, today was a relaxing day. No use worrying over things like that. Tomorrow he started work for his uncle so he might has well enjoy the day while he could.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: NeoBuster on September 16, 2015, 04:27:09 PM: "Thats fine, have fun Hana!" Neo said as he waited for his paycheck to come in.

"Maybe I can actually pay for that hosiptal bill finally.." Neo said to himself.

"Heres your paycheck" One of the guards said to Neo

"Thank you" Neo said.

"Tell Hana when she gets back ill text her later" Neo said

Neo then left Hana's house to handle some business that he needed to take care of.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 18, 2015, 10:08:15 PM: Miyuki's vision flashed, and again she saw that scene again. The voice, calling out to her, the flashing red and black. She'd seen this countless times over the last year, with no way to escape it. No escape, no path to freedom, just pain. Pain that coursed through her, bringing her to the verge of screaming. Despite the number of times this had happened, she still wasn't used to it.

All she could do was hide it. All she could do was attempt to stop people from worrying about her. "I-I can't let Hana worry more about me... I can't let the nurses notice." That thought kept her from breaking down. She tried to get up, but pain flared through her body again. Gritting her teeth, she kept herself from yelling out, barely. "If I can't even do this much, then I have no right to be looked after by Hana." Drilling the thought into her head, she tried to drift off to sleep, ignoring the tears flowing down her face.

Eventually, the pain passed, like it usually did, and she was left trembling. "How much more of this can I take?" she wondered. With the pain gone, she was able to fall into a restless sleep. For now, the secret was safe.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 20, 2015, 03:48:02 AM: Sometimes Hana sends up her wishes to the stars, cliche and lame, but really, she just wishes that they don't fall on deaf ears.

Hana was now sitting in her penthouse living room couch. On the mini-table set in front of her was her song notebook and two mugs. The large glass window of her penthouse let her overlook the entire town of Kizoku, and a few portions of the neighboring town, Hoshiko. With both of them as large and wealthy communities, the view at night was even more precious as all the houses of these towns as well as the popular stores would turn on their lights, creating a starry view of the city when looking down in addition to the natural starry skies. She took a sip from her mug while looking out into the brilliant view. Hana decided to have coffee tonight, a Royal Brew. Her favorite part was mixing in the milk and watching them melt together. It was just a really weird habit. Her mug said her name which was, of course, "Hana." The second mug on the table would be for the person sitting next to Hana on the couch. It was and empty mug labeled,"Miyuki."

Writing anything that her heart desired especially when she felt devastated or sad always helped her. She acknowledged the events of the past few days and weeks, most notably her relationship with Haruka-kun. She placed her pen to paper and began to write:

Once more we cover up
In the darkness of night
Supposing we can pretend not to go back
Just as if milk was mixed with coffee
Being melted this night as well
In that world that no one knows of besides the two of us
In your eyes, is me
I show you something that no one else has ever seen
Surely, you're pleased
Touching those lips
I'm going to melt
Fill it once more
Just fill it once more
With that affection only you have
Come now
Forgive me once more
Just once more is enough
You can't deceive me anymore
Since it's just you

Quote from: Cherry on August 11, 2015, 01:43:57 AM
"Hana, cover your eyes! You must remain pure! Saintly! Unsoiled by the evils of this Earth!".

Thinking back on it now, Hana begins to laugh over the events that have transpired over these few years leading up to now. She acknowledged that some of these lyrics are pretty dang cheesy, but one of her songs, "Ocean of Thirst" was a bunch of jokes written around someone, and it became a bit hit. So writing like this while thinking was good, it got work done even as an idol. After the pen separated from paper, she began to thing about Haruka-kun. Right now, she wouldn't mind spending another night with him. Really now, what reason did she have to choose the White-colored Duo? Purity is the color white, and Hana had chosen black. Strangely enough, her sister was unable to stop her from becoming tainted. She laughed to herself, as if maniacally, all the while drops of water were flowing from her eyes. It really did suck.

This was it, wishing to stars now.

Quote from: Cherry on August 10, 2015, 02:10:45 PM
Her Hana senses were tingling.

Many talk about a sort of sibling intuition, a sort of communication through unspoken words. She was hoping that Yukino would get the message. Her power could send the image and thoughts, the stars were the source of of many of her abilities, so she wished upon them now, that Yukino would feel her calling out. If not then they really are no longer sisters.

She was spinning her pen again, remembering Miyuki. A nurse had given her a thumbs up as soon as she entered the home, but the funny thing is that she never bothered to go upstairs to check on her. Miyuki was her love before love even existed in her vocabulary. Hana was initially so stuck onto her dream of becoming an idol that Miyuki eventually just got mixed in along with it and for a time, she couldn't imagine becoming an idol without Miyuki by her side.

Well.

Her love for Miyuki was the same as her love for idols. At first it was friendship, but then she realized that it was something more than just a simple relationship between two girls of being best friends. She gained an interest in Miyuki that turned into a desire to protect her and be with her. She remembered the feelings of her touch and how they would hold one another, particularly on that one date over in the forest as they walked on a newly opened trail, and the other time while training in the manor's fight room. A yearning for her touch, yet it was all pure. Miyuki's touch was her love, and every hug and kiss that Hana ever gave to her was a transfer of emotions. Unspoken communication. They had a promise to teach each other the secrets of the vast world, to reach the ends of the Earth by each other's side. This had all gone right past, even one year later, it has still yet to happen.

"Hana.. no..." Reit said, very weakly.

Miyuki's touch made her happy, but it seemed so distant now, unlike Haruka-kun's. He would touch her and she would be able to play with him as well. The touch was tainting, the very acts ate away at her conscience. Slowly... slowly... her reasoning would be slowly eaten away to nothing.

Then pen touched the paper again.

Holding your hand in mine under a tree.
A leaf falls down on us.
At first we think it looks beautiful.
But its poisoned, you touched it.
So do I?
Now we can't touch the beautiful leaf.
Now we can't touch each other.
Unlike the leaf, at least I can still understand you
in other ways.

Once the pen left the paper, Hana turned the page to a new one. Now thoughts of how she interpreted loneliness had entered her head. There was no rejecting it, Hana agreed that she had an inferiority complex. At the same time she never really felt like her own person, as hard as she tried to be, she was always behind and trying to catch up. She was the younger sister and always treated as the immature baby princess, that was one thing. She never looked mature. That was another. Always behind... having to try her best to play catch up.

A nurse called, Miyuki needed a few things and they needed a hand. Hana had a few lyrics in her mind, but the nurses insisted that she help her girlfriend so she placed the pen down and did so.

"What a nuisance..." she thought, as she sat down.

She began to write once more.

The people are really a bother just because I'm small
so I'll puff my chest out, stand on my toes and look tall
I'll see the grown people stuff, do grown people things
I'll go to whatever end I need to.

I'll put on some make up and look the part
play the role that I want, the grown up one
they tell me it doesn't suit me, but I don't care
Since I'm always in the shadow I'll do anything so
lets play this game!

Truth or Dare?

She leaned back on her couch and finished her cup of coffee. Looking out into the skyline again, she made the same wish. Her eyes formed the sign of acceptance, glittering with stars embedded into them. Hopefully it was so, that the stars had heard her prayer.

"Hana..." Reit called out.

"What is it?" She asked.

"..." Reit became silent, as if she just suddenly fell asleep.

Instead of a song, Hana wrote random scribbles on the last page.

I kind of like this thrilling feeling with Haruka
Maybe I should've asked him for another night..
later... tomorrow..
What I miss though is Mi-hime. The one I loved.
I want to be an idol with her.
What would be her idol name?
I dont know what the hell my sister has become.
I'd always taken the incentive when it came to my sister doing things.
She should probably get over her dumb belief systems and dumb
personality just to act like a good sister because if not then I'll probably
lose all sense of myself... or maybe this is me?... sure feels weird...
I kind of don't want to make the first move with her anymore.
If she lets her stupid pride keep her from being a decent family member
I'll do the same.
The Cardfight club is going great.
No idea what to do for the culture festival though. Vanguard Cafe!... No.
Vanguard..- something.
I have a show somewhere soon.. right don't forget to contact manager-san!
I wonder if some of these songs will make it? Oh . that might be embarrassing.

She tore this one out of the notebook and burned it in the fireplace as she watched in silence, observing as her words turned into ash.

The rest of the night continued on.

Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 20, 2015, 11:33:58 AM: She ended up falling asleep on the couch. The sun now shone through the glass and the morning starlight struck the world outside. She could possiby get a better overview of Umano today. Her dog licked her face to wake her up, the best alarm clock. Usually she would be sleeping next to Miyuki or in a separate bed close by depending on she was feeling, but after last night, she couldn't particularly bring herself to do it. She picked up her mug, the smell of coffee still apparent from within it and washed it in the kitchen. She prepared some breakfast. She didn't know whether Miyuki would be able to eat with her today, but out of pure habit she cooked enough for two. She also made anothe batch of coffee and sat down to mess around on her phone.

Fitst she sent a text to Manager-san about the upcoming show he talked about.
'Good Morning Hana~' Reit greeted. Her heart skipped a beat from the familiar tone and she looked around. Yeah it was only Reit...

Suddenly she recieved a text from Yukino which seemed convincing enough. She didn't want to admit it to herself even now since she had to get her strong Isabella persona back up before heading out today, but she is hoping that her wishes were really answered.

"Okay, let's find somewhere to meet then. ISA Hope :3c"

After placing away her phone she picked up her deck box from the table yesterday, noticing that it wasn't in her back. A card feell from it despite her tight grip on the set of cards.

"Duo True Sister, Mer?.."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 20, 2015, 09:40:31 PM: Haruka showed up at the penthouse maybe a bit too early. He showed up in his work outfit like he joked about, but it actually looked rather suiting for him today. He ended up grooming a little before showing up, making sure he looked as best as he could. That was something he had never done before, at least, not for Hana. He normally just put on whatever and met with her but tonight felt different to him.

Special, maybe.

He was allowed in advance by the nurse's. Apparently they were expecting him ahead of time, and that made him really nervous about Miyuki but then again, if Hana said it was okay then...

He decided to get seated at the couch in the center of the living room, just off by the kitchen area and all. It was really well decorated, kind of like the manor but with a lot more flare to it. No beige walls, but beautiful mahogany and things of the like.

With a sigh, he pulled out his phone, reminding Hana about the meet-up... Okay that sounds sketchy, but it was all Haruka could believe it to be. It wasn't a date per se, but it was something close to it.

"at your house, getting comfy. mind if i make something to drink while i wait? cant wait to see u~! -haru"
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 20, 2015, 10:10:15 PM: "I don't mind! Yeah I'm on my way sorry! ISA Hope :3c"

She bolted through the door, wearing her snapback and baggy sports clothes, looking like she had just rented clothes from a professional basketball player. Isabella quickly put her purse down and removed her hat, placing it beside the bag. The house cleaning today also completely completely ran past her mind. "Ohhh how embarassing!" she said to herself as she panicked.

She noticed Haruka-kun, and decided to straighten herself up regardless of what she was wearing. Isabella stayed in character with what her current costume was to make it seem like this was all part ofthe plan even thought it totally wasn't.

"Yo bro!!" she walked up to him, offering a high five. He was wearing his suit. Isabella had to get to something nice after this just to be fair. Or rap for him.. whichever he wants.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 20, 2015, 10:22:06 PM: Haruka stood there dumbfounded. His jaw was literally dropping, already laughing pretty hard.

"H-Hana... hi-hahaha.." He high-fived her, leaning back in his seat. He ended up just clapping a bit, still holding in his laughter. He was about to go make coffee for himself, but now that she was here he would get to make both of their drinks. But first he had to ask...

"So, are you gonna rap for me? I mean, that get-up is pretty 10/10 Hana, but uh, not what I expected for the evening?"

He stood, petting Hana a little. It was more of a playful gesture, but he meant it in a couple-sort-of-way. It made his stomach turn to think he unconsciously did it, just because it was Hana and he grew so used to it.

Then his phone rang. It was buzzing actually, so it must have been a text.

"Eh, let me get that darl-" He cut himself off by biting his lip and reaching back for his phone, resting on the sofa again.

Y-Y-Yukino?! Now?!?!

Haruka's poker face was over 9000 right now in how hard he was trying to hide the shock written across his face. His hands trembled very slightly but he mostly masked over his reaction.

He started tapping a small message, forced chuckling again to lighten the mood that was just present.

"sorry, doing something right nao sweetheart. at uncle toshis house, helping me out with homework. we should meet up tomorrow tho! c: -haru"

You scum. You scum of the Earth.

"I might be..." Haruka muttered under his breath.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 20, 2015, 10:45:06 PM: The way Haruka-kun was acting set the tone of the night, playful. The pet on the head felt nice, and it looks like he hasn't made his coffee yet so perhaps that should be the first thing that they did together. The laugh was just about as she expected, but it actually made her feel better rather than be more of a letdown or embarassment.

"I can rap if you want! I'm going to change though, duh. I have lots of costumes remember!" She laughed.

With the ring of his phone, he suddenly became really stuttery and flustered. She already had a guess why, but she used her power with one eye to take a peek of what he was texting anyways. They were sitting in the living, right next to the window so it was perfect.

"Yukino huh?... Yeah same thing happened as I had to leave the amusement park- uh... yo." She tried to lighten the mood and calm him down. She may as well have as much fun in this before she changed into something more fitting.

She walked over to the kitchen and began taking out coffee ingredients as well as a blender.
"You're going to teach me how to make that frappe right?"
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 20, 2015, 10:59:21 PM: Haruka clicked his phone shut, sliding it across the living room table and standing up, stretching his back. He definitely was ready for a cup of coffee if he could get it. But something seemed off about the night... oh right, the clothes.

"Eh, Hana... Not to seem pushy, but, you aren't going to wear those all night are you?" Haruka was scratching the back of his head as he went into the kitchen yawning. He was already a bit sleepy but that sort of thing happens when you end up staying at the park for nearly eight hours with no response.

Making a frappe was easy. Just needed milk, coffee, vanilla and some other small things depending on what you wanted for it. He walked over to the counter behind Hana, leaning over her from behind a bit to get a better look at the ingredients. Everything he needed seemed to be there, just had to actually make everything...

Except standing behind Hana was making him want to do things besides make coffee...

Like, well, not make coffee and hang out with Hana.

Get your head out of the gutter, jeez.

"Hmm... Yeah, I can teach you. It isn't really that hard. Just takes a bit to figure out how much you want and then learn the proportions. We have a standard measure at work so it always tastes the same really..." He ended up trailing off, sort of spacing out.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 20, 2015, 11:11:46 PM: At first it was easy to follow, but then the coffee talk started to turn into a seminar, like something employees would be told at the first day of work. She understood the first few words, standards of measurement, something that was a given. Next up she tried to listen for what they were. Somehow she ended up thinking about vegetables. Tomatoes were red and it was kind interesting how they were made into ketchup. Wait, is tomato even a vegetable? Broccoli looks like a small tree, and celery tastes terrible and is gross.

In the end she just decided that Haruka-kun may as well just show her how. How he was standing behind her made her wish that she was wearing something that he could enjoy some more. Plus, she probably smelled like the amusement park. Gross like celery, she decide to change her clothes before continuing on.

"So... you don't want me to wear these all night right?" She put her hand on his chest, slowly moving it around, "Do you want to remove these yourself or do you want me to change into something nice?.. I have a swimsuit, a maid outfit, and a lot of other costumes. Or just make it easy with a simple dress?" A grin formed across he face.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 20, 2015, 11:20:11 PM: Haruka opened his mouth, blood rushing all over. He wasn't sure whether or not to take her up on that offer about removing clothes-

S C U M.

Haruka mentally knocked himself on the head for that one. He honestly felt a bit crappy about that, considering he really wanted to actually go ahead with that. But then he instantly felt guilty about even considering that because he sort of wanted to share that kind of experience with Yukino. Then again Haruka should probably just stop thinking about all of this completely before his mind blanks out again.

"A-A dress is fine, Hana, really. But I wouldn't mind the maid costume on a different occasion.."

A filthy, rotten...honest human being, Haruka is. He cupped Hana's face in his hand, pulling her in for a long kiss, covering her hand that was tracing his chest with his own hand. He was a small guy comparably to the rest of his friends like Seifer, Tsubasa or Satoshi. But he was still somewhat taller than Hana and built up a decent amount.

Superiority complex? Just a little bit.

"I'll see you when you get back, yeah?" Haruka smiled, somewhat turning his attention to the ingredients on the table. He had to figure out what she had and didn't have fast before going into actual detail work. Despite Haruka's messed up desires, he was actually sort of excited to test his barista workmanship too. Even if Hana found it kind of boring, he was excited to get to work.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 20, 2015, 11:38:02 PM: The way that he reacted was golden. She should've taken a picture. The kiss was largely unexpected, leaving her blushing and looking around the house. It felt as good as always, she wanted more. The night was still young, and they plus, a frappe! Frappes are worth getting excited over as well. Eventually her eyes were set on the stairs since she had to change after all. "I-I... Yeah, okay! A dress is fine"

Well first off, a quick bath.

She picked a black and white dress to compliment Haruka-kun's colors. It had white laces around the chest area which she tied up. Laces were kind of her favorite thing. Anything that was a ribbon and looked near gothic lolita style, Isabella actually found really cool looking. The dress she chose was actually pretty old, from almost a year ago. It still fit her, though not in the way it was originally supposed to. She had to loosen the laces that she had tied from the last time that she wore it and since she had grown taller, the ends of the dress were now a good amount of inches above knee length.

"Well... at least I hope Haruka-kun likes it." She combed her hair and put on a white rose clip to complete the whole look.

Heading down the stairs, she noticed Haruka-kun looking at the ingredients, ready to make the coffee. She laughed at him, "Haha.. what a nerd! Anyways, here I am! What do you think? We can make that coffee now?"
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 20, 2015, 11:47:07 PM: Stunned. Haruka was actually so bewitched by the beauty Hana had right now. The dress seemed uncannily coordinated with Haruka's outfit for the evening, despite it being what he wears all the time anyways. She was very cute, for sure.

"You look.. great, Hana. Really, beautiful." Haruka smiled, nodding.

"Oh right, the coffee. Sorry, you took a bit longer than I thought so I made my own Royal Brew, like normal. It's on the counter over there, I haven't drank it yet though." Turning his attention back to the stuff at hand, he was deciding if he wanted to do extra chocolate this time for the mocha frappe, or if he just wanted to do a richer brew than normal. Maybe a higher quantity of condensed milk?

He was having a pretty intense mental debate on how he wanted to make it.

"Hana, how do you like your coffee by the way? I'm not sure how you wanted to make it this time. It's not work standard stuff so..." He placed his hands on the counter, somewhat leaning on it, getting a bit lost in thought.

While this whole coffee bit was on his mind, something else was taking control of his thoughts. His phone hadn't buzzed even once since he sent that text to Yukino... She must have honestly believed his dumb excuse, but she didn't even respond? I mean, technically Haruka didn't deserve a response. But he still felt kind of crappy about it.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 20, 2015, 11:59:12 PM: "I'm not really that picky actually." She continued walk down the stairs and stoppe when she was beside him, "more like I'm actually not that well educated when it comes to coffee stuff. I just throw in creamer... do things butler-san and other people have suggested and yup."

It was also due to her espeially terrible memory when it came to titles and names. She would have to actually come up with a nickname for coffee in order to remember all this. It was also the fact that all coffee tasted the same to her, and if it didnt, add sugar or creamer. "Just as long as it's sweet, I'm usually content."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 21, 2015, 12:11:41 AM: Haruka was... well he was slightly offended. Coffee making was an art and for her it was "as long as it was sweet, she was content?" He almost got a bit upset with her, then remembered she wasn't crazy and it was Haruka who was just completely overreacting in his head. He sighed and grinned a bit. At least making coffee for this cute little Princess wouldn't be super difficult.

"Extra chocolate it is then."

Haruka went ahead and started putting it all together. It went surprisingly quickly, even mixing the coffee and milk together was done with near tactical precision, using a metal stirrer he had in in his server's apron. He took a good amount of time with the blender though, considering it took a bit longer to figure out whether or not the top bit was in place so it didn't explode everywhere.

After a moment or two of going through all the motions at a decent speed, he presented a fresh mocha frappe for Hana. Whipped cream and chocolate syrup to top it all off.

"Well, that was quicker than I thought it would be..." Haruka had done this so many times recently that it just sort of felt like a moment had passed is all.

"I hope it tastes good to you... actually..." Thoughtlessly, Haruka started rummaging through Hana's fridge looking for milk.

Milk and coffee, quite literally Haruka's favorite mix. He liked Irish Creme as well, but the milk make it thicker and didn't get rid of the strong coffee taste. With a tad bit of sugar, he sipped his own coffee.

"Mmm.... just as good as Butler-san. Looks like the apprentice has surpassed the master." Haruka chuckled, taking another long gulp of the coffee.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 21, 2015, 12:40:19 AM: "I was actually going to say extra chocolate for the frappe, but I usually actually always go for caramel.... mm I usually go by the packs they give, two sugar, and two cream... or one depending on the day. When it comes to sweeter things, I am never really picky outside of toppings, since everything is always measured for me to be some sort of health benefit before I over-consume sugar and gain weight. Manager-san makes sure my diet is checked on regularly. Also memory is kind of bad." She shrugged, noticing that he wasn't content with her answer from before. It was a pet peeve of hers that she wasn't well versed in specific things that people seemingly had a passion for like this. She feel the same about haircuts also, despite being all about fashion, the numbers translate to gibberish for her, so she would often blather on about what she does know to kind of hide it, even maybe as a self-apology. She leaned over the counter as he did his work, feeling kind of bad noticing that she rushed a reply to something he was passionate about.

But then again.

She took her frappe and sat down on the living room couch, offering Haruka-kun to sit next to her and do the same. "You're such a coffee drinking-making nerd." Isabella teased him. "... but I'm glad, this tastes good."

The lights outside were twinkle twinkle sparkle. Well, that's how she explained them in her mind. Nice as always.

"So you want to hear the song I wrote right?" The song book was directly under the living room table, where she left it this morning on her rush to get to the amusement park.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 21, 2015, 12:48:58 AM: As Hana presented it to him, Haruka took the opportunity to sit next to her. Hana spoke up about a song it seems. Oh right! She wrote lyrics to a song, and Haruka had decided to hear about them. He scratched his chin, apparently realizing the area he shaved when he get home was still kind of itchy.

"Yes! Yes yes yes I'd love to!" Haruka crossed his legs leaning back, sort of trying to relax a bit. He was interested in what Hana had cooked up for him. If Haruka was to coffee-making, Hana was to song-writing. It was kind of like, the big thing Haruka knew her for. Also her super-duper stalking powers. Haruka was still amazed about it, and kind of scared at the same time. If she saw him in the shower... hoh boy. Not what he wanted someone like her peaking at, no sirree.

"Whenever you're ready, princess." He called her that unconsciously, not because she was the Princess of Cray, but more as a pet name. Weird. Haruka only really did that with...-

Haruka smiled despite the conflict in his mind.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 21, 2015, 01:09:39 AM: She placed the song book on the table and reached for her acoustic guitar which was right across the living room, next to the fireplace. Sitting down, she became comfortable next to Haruka-kun. A smile formed on her face as she leaned a little closer, poking him a little with her curved elbow, as she slowly began to strum her guitar.

"A private concert right?... Well I hope you like it."

This was the song she sang.
Milk and Coffee (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPgqiaDDTjw)

After it was over, she took a deep breath. Singing was always good at letting out emotions as well. While carefully placing her guitar on the floor, she realized a bit of sheet music was sticking out of her song book. Impossible, it couldn't be...

That song.

She quickly reached for the song book and closed it before Haruka-kun would ever get to see any lyrics or even a single note written on the paper. Isabella actually wrote a whole song about her experiences with him at night and it was quite shameful. No one should ever see it. Moving closer to him in an attempt to distract, she timidly laughed and began to ask, "What did you think?... haha... ha."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 21, 2015, 01:19:42 AM: Haruka gave a mini-applause, still trying to keep somewhat quiet with Miss Miyuki in the other room. But after listening to that song, Haruka found himself entranced in the warmth of the fire and Hana's voice. It was truly beautiful for sure. All he could do was let the resonance of her voice take him away to a faraway place. He even wrapped his arms around her as the song finished, very pleased with the way it ended. It was a cute song about well, Milk and Coffee.... or at least that's the guise it fell under.

The meaning of it was a bit more intense than that.

He did feel the tinge again. Guilt. He would normally be holding Yukino right now. She would be the one who is talking to him and sharing late nights with him and having his attention, not Hana. He saw her quickly shut the music book, kind of confusing him a bit. But he didn't want to press it. Must be something important she would show later or something.

Haruka had questions to ask.

"So... how was your day with Yukino? Have fun?" He awkwardly smiled, trying to kind of keep the atmosphere light.

"She... uh, change at all?"
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 21, 2015, 01:27:00 AM: "With Yukino? It was a lot of fun really. It felt different sure, but we've both changed so I did my best to just keep it all happy and well." She looked out to the sky line, wondering what Yukino was doing in the current moment. She could probably check, but tonight was supposed to only be her and Haruka-kun. "Yeah, I guess we should compare her to the old Yukino right?"

"You know I look back on those days a lot, the ones from a year ago, before all these adventures began and I got thrown into all this. I was both a blessing and a curse I guess..." While she talked about those days from a year ago she envisioned herself in between Miyuki and Yukino. The three of them have changed radically, maybe not as much Miyuki, but she was once energetic and upbeat, the sunshine that brightened up each and every single day. "I really do wonder why this feels so nice... why we keep going..."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 21, 2015, 01:35:00 AM: "That's good. You guys all sort of grew up really fast over the year and some... It's weird to see how you've all changed after all of this..." Hana had her eyes on the window outside while Haruka was staring down at the fireplace, keeping his vision fixed on the flames. The crackle of sparks and flicker of the flame made Haruka's eyes water a little.

"Why what feels so nice- Oh..." Haruka had sort of become silent. Where to proceed with that thought... Honestly, he had a few reasons why. But none of them were pleasant and probably nothing Hana wanted to hear.

Tell her. Tell her.

2/3, Majority ruling wins, I guess.

"Maybe we just got so lost without those we needed with us this past year... I mean, I said it before. Without Yukino this past while, you showing up was some sort of saving grace I guess... I still wish I could patch everything up with her if she'd let me. But..." Haruka bit his lip, sort of holding in his breath. He was tense all of a sudden.

"I don't know. I'm probably not worth much to her now after all that's happened."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 21, 2015, 01:42:26 AM: Well, he felt the same way. That was good at least.

"I guess when I said I've gone to the extent where I cant really turn back, its kind of like that too. You showed up and, well I over committed to the move and... well where is there to go? At least we go together right? Miyuki is asleep now, but I know that if she found out about this, it would just be... yeah she wouldn't forgive me either."

Though, it was a simple act, what could fix all this. "The way to fix this would be to pick either you or Miyuki on my end and for yours, you'd have to pick either Yukino or me. It seems so simple, but I feel something keeping me from doing so...?" Hana wrapped her arms around his and rested her head on his shoulder, now turning to look at the flames which got his attentions. How fitting.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 21, 2015, 01:51:49 AM: Haruka opened his mouth, already knowing who he'd decide on. But that was a lie. Because even if he could make the choice, there were too many chains and black tape blockades keeping him from that. Yukino was right beyond the gate that was locked under key, and all he could was reach between the bars for her.

Hana was on the same side as he was, and holding on his hand, pulling him away from that gate. He could accept that fate, and walk away with her. Never trying to break down that gate.

But Haruka, with some strange sense of desperation, wanted to break down that gate.

"I feel awful just knowing I'm here, with you, doing this... and just out of earshot is the girl you told me you were in love with." Haruka sighed a bit, eyes transfixed on the fire. Every lick of flame keeping his attention. Fitting indeed.

"Something in me is just not letting me tell her... I think-, I think that if I told Yukino about us... I'm sure she would never want anything to do with me. That's what scares me the most. And it's not like I can lie to her. Pretend we never happened." Haruka gripped around Hana a bit tighter, leaning back a bit, allowing Hana ease to lay on shoulder.

"I miss her." Haruka was afraid to admit it at first, but it was the honest truth. He missed her so much but there wasn't much to do about it now. Not realistically.

Post by: Hope on September 21, 2015, 02:12:44 AM: "I miss her too."

Isabella, her idol persona, sure didn't, but Hana did in every sense. She let herself be at ease next to Haruka-kun. "I don't want to say that I don't like doing this.. I do, and you're great. It makes we wonder why we ended up with who we did instead of each other.. hehe... but it turned out that way. I'm more accepting of it now that I was a few days ago... I guess, if you were to leave me here." The flame gave off a light which glowed radiantly, causing a shadow to form from the mug that lay on the table, Miyuki's.

"You were the first person that I told when it came to my crush on Miyuki huh? Shoot the let me tell you haha, you know I'm the Princess of Cray and everything, but I want to be Miyuki's prince... but I feel like a failure when it came to her. I just want to run away from it, because seeing her sick reminds me of how useless I am, how little I can do and how weak I am to change a single thing... " She gave him a peck on the cheek. "Just when I thought that I've gotten so strong... well."

"This keeps me distracted from it, but I've accepted that it won't last forever... even though I want it to. Yet, like I said who cares about tomorrow... I'll enjoy the present. No matter what happens, suffering is waiting for us tomorrow."

The longer this kept going, the more it ate away at her conscience and her own pride. Every time she saw Miyuki laying on the bed, unable to do much, it ate away at her heart. Her heart's been eaten up equal to the amount of days in a year. There's not much left. She then sat on Haruka-kun's lap, facing towards him with her right hand caressing his face.

"It's just that we need each other it seems... so no matter what, I promise that I'll be by your side to help you face whatever you need to face. Whether this be my sister...or - well, anything. I promise, even when this is all over."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 21, 2015, 02:25:44 AM: Everything she had said was comforting and of course, left him with a small smile. The kiss was a nice touch, leaving a bit of warmth running throughout. Irregular heat was commonplace for Haruka. He got used to burning up at the touch of somebody else, even without being touched he was on fire a majority of the time.

The fireplace was suddenly glowing brighter than before. The orange flames were now a crimson, leading Haruka's vision from them to Hana now. Her figure was illuminated by the evening flames. With a deep breath, he smiles. Like a proud brother almost, except this was anything far from brotherly. Haruka was just glad that Hana had finally started growing up. She was realizing things Haruka didn't even pick up until she mentioned them.

Haruka really was a dummy.

"A distraction... It sort of sucks calling us that, but you aren't wrong. Keeping this up for too long could cause... complications." Haruka already knew this wouldn't stay forever. That wasn't the problem for him in reality. He loved spending time like this with Hana, when he could just enjoy the emotions she poured into everything. He was learning about her, the person, not her tempting side. Hana was much more than a woman now, she was a close friend.

People would disagree calling this friendly. But Haruka knew that this was, probably if anything, some sort of friends with benefits type ordeal. With a bit more emotion involved.

Still sounds wrong to me. Still sounds wrong to me.

Haruka raised his eyebrows.

"It's nice to think someone really is on my side. Don't think I won't return the favor or something. I'll stand by you too, Hana. That's what I'm good for, right? Standing up?" Haruka winked with his little Vanguard joke. Haruka's entire spiel was a restanding vanguard, so it was pretty fitting.

"Seriously. I want to help you out, just like you've helped me out. Even when this, whatever this is, is over." He nodded to her, rising his hand up her back to her shoulder to support her balance. He reached over to the table for his coffee, taking a sip. It had gotten a bit colder, but still tasted just as good to him.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 21, 2015, 03:08:35 AM: What would be a name for this... a word for this? Hana tried to find one.

"Haha... I get the Vanguard joke, but you've been standing up in other w-" She stopped right there. Memories came back of when she saw dirty magazines in the train station. It basically froze her. While she knew of lewd jokes, the actual thought of such things made her freeze up back then. "I don't want to call this a distraction... honestly if you ask me, you have a room in my heart. I hold a feeling of love for you, I can say it too, I-.." She also stopped right there, but she leaned closer to him.

"Until this is over..." She gave him a kiss, it lasted for awhile this time, "as well as after..." A second kiss followed up.

She smiled with a bit of blush on her face, still keeping herself close to him, where she could feel his breath for a moment. Then she slowly backed away to get a full view of him. "Maybe in another world throughout the infinite universe, throughout the many stars that shine out there... under one of their brilliant lights is a world where we are truly together. The way we are now, but in our hearts then we have no one else, but each other."

The chemistry between her Haruka-kun was undeniable. He truly complimented her with his personality and look and she matched his flame perfectly. In the many worlds that exist, there is no doubt one where they are happy together.

"Friends with benefits really doesn't sound like enough... maybe it's cause we were really just meant to be, but destiny changed her mind and moved things around." That could be so, but since destiny and fate had separated them, this could be a makeshift way of trying to fix it. "I want you to understand that if you wish to run back to Yukino, don't worry about me. I don't want you to choose between me or her, because I don't want to choose between you or Miyuki... I understand the feeling myself. "
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 21, 2015, 07:26:55 AM: Standing up in other w-...?

O-Oh. Well I can't help that..

Listening to Hana's but about another world far away where everything was the same except themselves, where instead they were the ones who were fell for each other and not anybody else. Haruka found the idea... Not unbelievable.

Every kiss left Haruka a bit more breathless. Heat was the least of his worries for sure. The way Hana even made mention of a feeling of love confirmed something for himself. The emotions he had were love as well, but they were bred by a different flame. It was a feeling of mutual need for each other.

But it didn't change the emotion. It didn't invalidate his feelings the way they were brought about. He smiled at Hana's understanding and seemed even okay about everything.

He took one of her hands in his, intertwining their fingers.

"Quite the shining star, aren't you?"

Haruka hadn't been that happy for awhile.

"Is the part where I say 'I love you too?' Hehe... Thanks Hana. I appreciate everything you're doing for me. I hope in whatever other world where we're together, that we're happy right now."

With a nod, Haruka let a small yawn escape. He was falling asleep somewhat. The caffiene wasn't exactly keeping him awake anymore.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 21, 2015, 10:08:30 AM: "It is where you say it," with a blushing face, she was glad at the fact.

When she saw him yawn, she decided it was just about time to close out the night. There was school tomorrow after all and having him wake up late from this would make her feel quit guilty. She placed her hands on his suit, undoing some of its buttons.

"Let's head on upstairs." she said, slowly standing up. "I'll wake you up a little bit."

She winked as she fixed the cups of coffee that lay on the table, setting them together so that she may wash them as soon as she had woken up on the next day. Isabella yawned as well and started stretchig arms out, looking out into the sky again.

"Shining star.. huh?" she said to herself with a smile.

Hana grabbed Haruka's hand as she led him to the room for her to take the stage and own the night.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 21, 2015, 10:15:30 AM: There was that feeling again. Something Haruka probably wasn't going to remember in the morning. But he was, well, excited despite it.

Hana was taking him upstairs and as everything sort of started to fade he could vaguely remember words coming to mind. About stars...

"The brightest star on this side of the sky..." Haruka muttered, following Hana up the stairs for the night.

Hmm... How far is the school from here anyways?

Hana AP+5
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 22, 2015, 12:53:59 AM: Be honest with yourself!

Well that was the problem. She was being honest, too honest. Now she is here.

Hana placed the two boxes down and for some reason felt like tearing up. It was weird, how she imagined how her and Mi-hime would look in this, wearing them together and walking out in the public everywhere with one another, holding hands, handing, and in general just doing cute couple stuff. Keeping them somewhere safe like a hidden compartment in one of the drawers would probably be a good idea for now unless Mi-hime had any chance of waking up soon. A nurse upon hearing her arrive gave her a thumbs up. That made her feel better by a mile, though she still would be unable to go check on Mi-hime, it would eat up the final piece of her heart. She could no longer take it.

The necklaces shifted, possibly as the same time that her Pr<3isms changed to Duos. Black and White... those colors. This necklace represented her and Mi-hime, their relationship and love. How much they matched yet were total opposites. Hana wanted to give them to her so badly...

After placing the boxes inside a hidden drawer, Hana got lotion from bathroom and sat along the living room, rubbing them along the burns on her wrists. She wasn't used to the pain actually, so she teared up a little bit as she did.

All in all, today was a productive day.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Jello on September 22, 2015, 01:27:08 AM: After finally leaving Yukino from the park, he found himself at the penthouse. He wasn't particularly invited, but upon arrival he was let in all the same. He came in, taking off his boots and dress jacket. Hana was running lotion on her wrists. He had questions about it, but figured to save them for later. He was too tired to figure out why and didn't want to put anything pressurewise on Hana.

"I'm gonna head in the for the night. See you in there?" Haruka pointed to the bedroom, already untying his tie. He was sleepy, sure, but resting with a partner never hurt either.

Physically. Psychologically, Haruka was so twisted there probably wasn't much saving him now.

He smiled with a nod, heading into the bedroom. If he was lucky his head would hit the pillow and he'd be out before Hana came in.

But that probably wasn't going to happen.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 22, 2015, 02:10:03 AM: After a good amount of time it felt much nicer. She still sent a picture to Manager-san along with a lame excuse since saying that she visited the slums and fought a gang would most likely get her an earful, not that she wasn't going to get one already. Isabella will just have to get used to wearing bracelets til this heals.

Seems fancy, but what color or style?

Haruka-kun was obviously tired out, leaving his articles of clothing basically all over the place. She felt joy at the thought of another night with him, even thought they would just be sleeping with each other's company for the night. She picked up his boots and placed them along with the other shoes, folding up his tie with his dress jacket, placing then neatly on the dining room table.

She then took a shower to wash off the stench from visiting the slums. Isabella noticed a bit of blood on her school uniform as she removed it. Cool. After the shower, she put on a black nightgown and decided to check in for the night. By the time that she entered the bedroom, Haruka-kun was already out cold on the bed. There was a desire to just stare at him for awhile and admire him. Yeah, so Hana did that for awhile before scooting in close and unbuttoning his dress shirt ,placing her head on his chest while embracing him. Hana closed her eyes, falling asleep with Haruka-kun in her arms.

He was so bored he didn't even fancy going to Card Capital or Shop Handsome to find a fight. He really wanted to see what Seifer, Rose and Darren were like in a fight and even fight Noel. With is boredom and whole new level he decided to just head to his hotel room and see if anything good was on TV.

Post by: Hope on September 25, 2015, 12:03:59 AM: Hana quickly rushed up the stairs and a nurse gave her the usual thumbs up. She slid through the floor and into the room.

Was it true?

"Mi-hime!" What would be the first words to be said? She wanted to let it out and be over with it, the sad atrocities which she has commited against the one whom she has sworn to, her princess. Hana tried to find the words.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 25, 2015, 12:22:32 AM: Miyuki woke up, still hazing in an out of conciousness. The last few days had been particularly bad, with her barely being awake, and the pain had gotten worse. The nurses had obviously not let her out of the house like they had said, due to her condition worsening. A nurse entered the room, and seeing that she was up talked to someone outside. She also checked and asked if she was ok, which Miyuki said she was. She felt worn out, but the pain wasn't there for now.

Still, she was drifting off again when the door flew open, and Hana appeared through it. "Hana?" Miyuki said, suprised by the sudden entry. "Are you ok? Nice to see you anyway~, it feels like it's been awhile since i've seen you."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 25, 2015, 01:30:32 AM: Hana was silent for the most part. She was in joy and in disbelief, but also full of guilt as it was all just a great atrocity that she committed. She placed her Vanguard deck down on a table between them. For some reason Mi-hime usually feels better when she plays Vanguard. They would be able to talk to each other this way, and Hana would be able to tell her everything that she deserves to know along with the apologizes and feelings that she's been holding back deep inside.

"I want to show my new Bermuda Triangle deck!" Hana said, trying to keep up her enthusiasm.

She thought to herself that it would woo Mi-hime, take her off her feet to see the Duos. They were strong and everything too, and plus their color coordination was on point. "Mi-hime would be so impressed by this deck!" Hana thought as she placed down her starter, Duo Lovers Singer, Darling. Mi-hime did the same, generally apologizing for her absence as she did so. It made Hana feel even worse, it wasn't her fault, but as for what she had to apologize for well...

"Alright Mi-hime, you can go first!" The excitement was building.

Watch this Mi-hime! I got stronger while you were gone! Stand up! Duo Love-

"Duo Lovers Singer, Darling!" Mi-hime called out the name of her starter.
"Wait wat." Hana's face turned blank.

Wat
Wat
Wat
~~Wat~~

"Oh, so you chose black?" Mi-hime inquired her.
"Uh... yeah." Hana was still dumbfounded.
"Is there something wrong?" Mi-hime followed up with another question.

Reit! Why were you asking me!?

"Miyuki wanted white so I was making sure if you wanted black so you guys could compromise." Reit answered.
"Wait you can talk?" Even more dumbfounded.
"Yeah! I'm Miyuki's avatar, I've been watching over you the entire time just like Vert was!"
"Wait so who-" Suddenly Hana was cut off.
"That would be me?? Excuse me, imouto-chan here!" Mer interrupted. "Aren't you a true sister, Hana-chan? Oh my lordie you're more bitter than dark chocolate." Mer teased.

Yep, she's definitely my avatar.
But how is Reit speaking?...

"I'm only as healthy as Miyuki ever is! I still act on her desires no matter what though, and all she wanted for me to watch over you and make sure you're A+ ok." The mermaid idol explained.

It was all this time that Hana had felt a gaze onto her, she knew that it was Reit, but was it because the unit was watching over her the whole time? The few weak lines that Reit spoke was Mi-hime calling out to her? It all made sense. Despite what she did, when all the other units didn't want to be close to her, Reit was the only one that stayed with her. Miyuki was always taking care of her even when she was neglecting to do the same.

The guilt that she had swallowed for so long just kept building up.

"Never take us seriously. Well, you should, but we have a certain charm off of doing things our way. The Bermuda Triangle way of getting things done!" Mer was chewing on a chocolate bar. Sweet.

After the two fights it became clear. Mi-hime won the first one with her avatar, Duo Eye of Temptation, Reit dressed in all white. Hana won the second game with her avatar Duo True Sister, Meer dressed in black. It was fun like always, Hana's heart was beating from the excitement, for how strange the fights went.

She fell in love with Mi-hime a thousand times.

But...

"I want to tell you that I'm sorry... You know when I told you about Haruka I- .... I cheated on you with him while you were asleep. I have no idea how you could possibly forgive me. You're my Princess, and I felt so weak for being unable to do anything to help you... really really helpless while you stayed strong and loved me. I want you to know that I love you now, so much in return. I ended everything with Haruka, we're just friends now.. but all the things we- ..." She paused to catch her breath, a few tears were in her eyes now. As she kept going, it kept increasing. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, If you don't forgive me then I don't blame you. Even if you don't, I'll do anything I can to cure you. For your sake, anything, because I love you... and I promise that for your sake I will go beyond the ends of the Earth."

She bowed her head and closed her eyes, weeping silently.

There were an infinite amount of stars in the sky. What a nice full moon.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 25, 2015, 01:46:22 AM: After hearing what Hana had to say, Miyuki was silent for a bit, letting it all register. Mixed feelings rose up in her, a small bit of anger, but mostly guilt. This was her fault in a way, and she felt a wave of frustration at the cause of her illness. If only that hadn't happened... Brushing those thoughts aside, she moved over to Hana, and held her close.

"I-it's ok Hana, I mean, I've been sick for awhile now, and particularly the last week or so have barely been awake. You must have felt very lonely, and I'm sorry for that. Without you being here for me, I probably would have given up a long time ago. So really, thank you for all that you have done for me. I love you still, no matter what, and that will not change. So don't cry, it's all alright now."

She couldn't guarantee that it'd be fine, in fact her illness would quite possible keep on getting worse. But right then she didn't really care, she just wanted to ensure that Hana wasn't sad.

"In short, I forgive you, there is no way I couldn't. I'm sad that you cheated on me, however it's my fault for being sick, and you've stopped it right? So it's fine, really."

With that she shifted herself slightly, then leaned over to Hana again, and gently kissed her. As long as Hana was happy, it'd be fine.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 25, 2015, 02:02:37 AM: "What makes me happy, truly happy, is you." Hana gave her gentle kisses back, a peck on the cheek, and then one that lasted longer than that to her lips.

The pure feeling that I've been searching for...

It was unfair, she was just being too kind. Hana was so weak, giving in to temptation, holding a grudge against Yukino, and letting herself be a trashy bag of inferiority complexes. Mi-hime had forgiven her, even blamed herself. It was not fair. Hana felt that she was the only one at fault, but her Princess... Was basically a.saint. She shouldn't be allowed to blame herself, she did nothing wrong.

"It isn't your fault for being sick, silly." The Princess said to stop crying, so Hana smiled.

The joy was real. The feeling of being forgiven despite all the left over guilt still made her happy. She felt as if she were flying, soaring along the skies. Hana was invincible now.

"I love you no matter what, of course! We'll preform together one day. As a duo!"

The dream was revived as well, a new goal to strive for.

"Oh right, so that makes my avatar Meer huh... I guess I should fix things with Yukino. Haha..." Hana scratched her head and let out a nervous laugh.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 25, 2015, 02:45:05 AM: "That's great~". Miyuki smiled, happy that Hana wasn't crying. "Fixing your relations with Yukino would be good yes, she is your sister after all! And yes, hopefully I can get better, so we can perform together. I've been keeping you waiting on that front."

She smiled again, feeling really happy that Hana had come to see her. Even so, she could feel the pain coming back again, building up quickly. "Not right now, Hana is here" she thought, not wanting to show this to her.

'H-hmm, man I feel tired for some reason" she said, trying to hold herself together. She leant onto Hana, partly for support as her legs started trembling. The pain returned to her, along with that vision. Ignoring it for now, she looked at Hana. "Sorry about that, I guess after being asleep for that long I shouldn't have done too much. I'm fine though~".
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 25, 2015, 03:00:41 AM: "Gahhh, stop apologizing, I should be the one!" It was true, Hana really should be the one.

Hana put her arms Mi-hime, stroking her hair. She remembers when it used to be cut short, but she didn't mind this. This was fine. This was great actually. Mi-hime's hair is soft. So is Mi-hime. Oh gosh.

"I'm so dumb to have forgotten how this felt..." Hana stll felt the guilt. She was trying to justify what she was doing by being selfish, totally selfish, at the cost of someone who thought of nothing and no one but her, and used her to keep on going through the pain. It was at this point that Hana decided that no matter what, if it was for Mi-hime's sake, it will be done. She has been working hard thus far, but now she even has more drive to work even harder.

She laid Mi-hime down on the bed and fixed her hair a little, also moving her blanket around as well as the pillows to make sure that she feels comfortable, "I'll be back tomorrow morning, hopefully we'll be able to eat breakfast together if you're able to. Goodnight Mi-hime..." Hana leaned forward and held her hand as she gave her a kiss on the forehead. Even this act held the message.

I'm sorry.

She slowly exited the room and handed the duty of watching her over to one of the nurses. As she left to get transported back to camp, the very act of leaving Mi-hime to handle the pain alone held the same message.

I'm sorry.

Hana's readiness to fight and steady determination now manifested into a power to move forward, to become a Vanguard. This very act itself held the message.

I'll make it up to you, I promise.

Post by: Hope on September 25, 2015, 11:23:12 AM: Star Rain Trumpeteer was now apparently going to join alongside Hana on her journey due to having won the best girl contest among the paladins. Garmore is slacking like always.

"Hiya!" Star Rain greeted.

Best girl.

Hana returned home early as promised to cook up a full course breakfsst for Mi-hime. Eggs and everything imaginable that is egg based along with hot dogs and pancakes. Of course eggs.

She set up a table near Mi-hime's bed side as she waited for beloved to wake up with high hopes. The aroma of egg was in the room. Nice.

"No chocolate?" Mer asked.
"Chill."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 25, 2015, 11:32:22 AM: Miyuki woke up to the smell of eggs. "Hmm?" she thought, confused for a second. Then she saw Hana sitting next to her at a table, with food set out. She was slightly surprised by this, but it was nice. She stretched and sat up, feeling slightly better then she had yesterday. Moving over to the table, she sat down next to Hana.

"Hiii Hana~ Good morning."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 25, 2015, 11:48:46 AM: Whoa she actually woke up!

Hana excitedly set the table in front of Mi-hime. Good morning! I passed out during the school camping trip. Anyways, how are you feeling?"

"Sometimes I do wonder if I'm related to Dragonic Overlord," Reit stated.
"Reit, no." Mer sighed.

Reit can only talk when Mi-hime is awake, and when she does, she's a meme.

"I really have been wondering how a disease exists that mom-san isn't able to cure despite being given a time." Hana questioned, "Is there anything that you need me to do?"
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 25, 2015, 12:02:51 PM: "Me? I'm feeling better thanks~ And passing out during the school camping trip isn't good Hana, passing out is bad!"

About the disease though, she wasn't sure how to talk about it. Besides, she reasoned, it probably wasn't something that Hana could specifically do about it. Her disease was almost certainly linked to that, but stopping it wasn't something she knew how to do.

"And umm, I don't think there's something specific that you need to do. Just by helping me out and being here you are doing enough."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 25, 2015, 12:10:00 PM: "I guess if mom can't do much, it obviously isn't that easy..." she sighed

Hana wanted to be patient, but it still did hurt her to see Mi-hime in this state. Nonetheless, she decided to keep the light mood going. Gotta make Mi-hime happy after all.

"Ahhh I know passing out is bad, but I was up very late! Also, Bermuda Triangle never shuts up!" she teased.
"I heard that." Mer is pink haired trash too.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 25, 2015, 12:45:15 PM: "Well, it happens sometimes I guess~ Just don't make it a habit. And yeah, it does make sense for Bermuda Triangle to be talkative righttt? I hope you had fun on the school camping trip anyway, wish I could have been there."

Just talking to Hana made things better though, and it felt manageable. Perhaps things would work out after all, and everything would be resolved. Having a 'normal' life suddenly again would be weird in a way, after about a year of this. Brushing aside these thoughts, she looked at Hana again, smiling.

"Make sure you have fun as well whilst you are out okay? And if it's someone I know, tell them I said Hi!"
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 25, 2015, 01:58:56 PM: Mi-hime will get the idol life which exactly wouldn't be normal. Not right away, but Hana was positive that she would make a really amazing idol. After talking for awhile, Mi-hime had to rest again. The time was always something treasured.

"Yeah, I'll tell the others hi for you." she gave Mi-hime a kiss on her head, "I'm heading out."

"Wait, gotta do dishes first." Hana laughed. She did the dishes first, then put everything in the dish washer for extra sanitation and to dry. She walked back upstairs and did the same thing.

"Now I'm heading out!" she kissed Mi-hime on the forehead again.

She pretended to forgot the dishes to have an excuse to do that.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 26, 2015, 05:42:37 AM: "I don't know if you're awake, but hey." Hana sat down alongside Mi-hime's bed.

Heavy pains in her heart dragged her down, her tough person, her idol persona, and all the thing in between were really just things done to help her get through the day. Her words feel as if they really do land nowhere and her presence feels lacking. It was all the same problems that she had, that she's always had. It didn't bother her as much as it used to now. Mi-hime and Reit's presence keep her from breaking apart. She has a goal, and no one will keep her from achieving it. Not even the so-called invaders.

"Mmm well let me tell you about my day, Mi-hime!..."

...and so she did, from this morning's kicking of Haruka, to the weird slum concert, all the way to her final fight with Yukinee to end off the day.

"I also remembered to say "hi" to everyone for you. Well I forgot Hikaru for reasons... but ehhh I don't think you've met him." She laughed. "I'm really hoping you hear me... and that my voice helps you keep fighting..."

She gave Mi-hime a kiss on the forehead and headed back to the living room area of her Penthouse. A good view of the stars, perfect for rehearing her power. Beyond the constant attempts to increase her proficiency with the use of light and stardust, she also spoke with her units about what they could improve upon. The invasion was going to come, but Hana wanted to be ready. Above all, she wanted to be strong enough to cure Mi-hime of whatever it is that she had plaguing her body.

All for her sake...

Post by: Hope on September 27, 2015, 01:09:12 AM: After a week of intensive training, Isabella finally got the "OK" to take a break from Dad-san as well as the rest of her units. She came home today, nearly soaked in sweat and tripping on herself, struggling to maintain balance. She threw her purse onto the table as she entered the penthouse, and the large thud of her slapping the door due to her inability to control her body alerted the nurses. She nearly fell over, but was caught by one miraculously.

"Don't push yourself Ms. Espoir." The nurse warned.
"I have to see Mi-hime." She forced herself up, her body looking as if it was falling behind to the shoulders that kept it up and legs that supported it.

Despite the nurse's warnings, she carried on. She was stubborn, and the nurse decided that the only way to resolve this was to help her to her lover's room.

"Mi-hime, I'm home." Hana said weakly, nearly laying on the bed herself.

Post by: Crystalia on September 27, 2015, 02:20:07 AM: Miyuki woke at the sound of someone falling into the door. She stared, surprised for a second, then saw Hana walk in, looking really tired.

"Hiii Hana, are you ok? You look really tired, what have you been doing?"

She tried to get up to help Hana, but felt her body protest at her attempt, and fell back onto the bed.

Post by: Hope on September 27, 2015, 02:27:15 AM: "I'm alright..."

She felt pain all over her body, and her eyes weren't feeling that great either. All she could do was crawl up the bed and lay beside Mi-hime, putting her arm over and giving her the closest thing to a hug that she could while also laying down. Seeing Mi-hime's attempts to help her had her tighten the grip by a bit, possibly due to her guilt still being present.

"I've been doing a lot of idol rehearsals... Very tiring haha! Though, holding you like this is like the best cure ..."

Post by: Crystalia on September 27, 2015, 03:32:03 AM: "Are you sure you are ok? Maybe you should go rest, you look half dead."

Seeing Hana try to hug her, she hugged back, trying to make her feel better.

"Was the idol rehearsal good at least? Did you improve a lot?" Hopefully it'd been worth it, seeing how Hana looked.

Post by: Hope on September 27, 2015, 03:37:17 AM: "Yeah I did... I practice and do my best so that I'll be ready to preform with you. "

Hana felt uneasy, as if something was off and wrong at the current moment. The hug from Mi-hime made her feel more comfortable, but nonetheless she had a gut feeling that things weren't going well. Most of all this feeling led her again to have a growing concern for Mi-hime, but she tried her best not to show it.

"Have they made any progress on finding what your disease really is over the past week?" She asked.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Crystalia on September 27, 2015, 05:06:31 AM: Miyuki froze slightly when Hana mentioned the disease again. The 'disease' that she'd spent the last year hiding what the cause was. Why had she hidden the truth again? To not make people worry? To deny that it was happening? Was it worth it still? Questions flowed through her mind, and she was unsure of how to answer. Hana seemed to be really worried anyway, it didn't seem to be helping keeping it hidden. But was revealing it the right thing to do? She didn't know any more.

Perhaps part of the reason she hadn't revealed it was because she felt like it'd be giving up. Once she'd started hiding it, it seemed silly to reveal it, after she had tried to hide it. Still, Hana did deserve to know. But she didn't want to make Hana worry. But Hana was already worried. The thoughts flashed in her mind, and she couldn't come to a conclusion. To answer or not.

She sat there for what felt like ages, thinking. She was unsure of how much time had actually passed, it could have been 1 hour or 30 seconds, she couldn't tell. Eventually, she remembered something though.

"Hana told me that she cheated on me with Haruka. She didn't have to tell me, I wouldn't have found out anyway. But she did it anyway, so that I would know. Might as well tell her I guess."

She made up her mind, deciding to tell Hana. "Well... the thing is. About a year ago, at the end of the New York stage thingy, I had a sort of vision. A being, shrouded in the darkness, surrounded by red and black rings spoke to me then. It asked me if I was happy with how I was, if I was truly satisfied. That I hadn't accomplished anything yet, I'd lost in the first round of the circuit, and had made no progress at all on my idol career. It promised me power, power to achieve my goals. In exchange, I had to 'help' it out, with the plan to invade Cray and Earth.

It tempted me for a second, but I said no. There was no way I could do anything that would harm you Hana, or any of my friends. After my refusal, the being asked me again, to which I refused. It then told me "Very well then, since you continue to refuse, I will simply make your life hell. In time you will probably give up, and join me. The pain, lack of energy, suffering, all the things that you will feel soon can be brushed aside if you accept me. Otherwise they will stay with you for the rest of your life, however short that might turn out to be."

"Ever since that day, I've had this 'illness'. At first I thought it was a coincidence, but I kept having weird dreams and visions again, of the being asking me if I'd changed my mind. This probably sounds insane, y-you might think I'm delusional. Maybe it does have nothing to do with my illness after all, I don't know for sure. But this is the reason that I think I've been sick this whole time. I'm really sorry for hiding this from you the whole time..."

With that said, she felt slightly empty. The big secret that she had kept hidden for so long was out. The only thing she could do was wait to see her reaction.

"I-I hope you aren't too angry at me from hiding this from you..."
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on September 27, 2015, 11:37:18 AM: "No I... don't feel angry or anything."

More like extremely guilty.

She stroked Mi-hime's hair, running her hand through it and petting her head in order to tell her that it was fine. Other than being guilty, Hana was glad actually... overjoyed. Unlike her, Mi-hime was able to overcome a tempting decision which would have given her happiness in an instant, yet she stayed with the worthless prince of hers who couldn't do the same.

Overcoming temptation... I guess that's why Reit is her avatar.

"I love you Mi-hime, you're the best." Hana now had direction, a place to move and an enemy to fight. Everything lined up, as crazy as it seemed. The invaders acted on Mi-hime as her sister described, but whenever she played Vanguard, her units would defend her from them and she would feel much better. Every dimension of existence that was Hana felt something from this, as a lover, a sister, a princess, an idol, and as a Vanguard fighter. Guilt, determination, frustration, longing, and a desire to fight respectively.

"I guess we should rest then... count on me. I'll get them to leave you alone." Hana smiled weakly. She herself was beginning to fall asleep. "Since I know what it is now, doesn't seem like I'll get infected and everything by laying with you will I? Don't think they'll even dare come close to me or I'll destroy them for what they've done to you." She scooted over closer to Mi-hime and kissed her before making herself comfortable and letting herself drift off into a calming rest.

Post by: Hope on October 10, 2015, 12:15:07 PM: A bag was laid down and a traveling bag full of items stood still near the door. She had forgotten that there were no helpers hereally to pick up that slack. The Princess returned home from Hawaii, not feeling well after the continuing visions banging on her sanity, taking her to the tipping point of what she could take. She placed a pineapple over at the kitchen, something that she could hopefully share with Mi-hime. A nurse greeted her, giving her a few specifics on Mi-hime's condition before heading off for a break. Hana sat down on the couch for a moment, scribbling down a few lyrics that sounded no different from a story found on creepynoodles.

She headed up stairs to check on her lover, knocking on her door and looking inside the room where the sleeping beauty slumbered. "Mi-himeee, I am home desuuu~ (haarto) (whale emoji) ^^ "

Post by: Azuki Frappé on October 10, 2015, 01:50:16 PM: "Ring ring" Ighanna pressed the automatic doorbell ringer as soon as she steps out of the lift's final floor, the penthouse. Holding a big bag of two luxurious souvenirs from around the globe, she was well prepared and loaded with presents to give to her two friends Miyuki and Hana after disappearing for an extremely long time without contacting them. Also due to a series of consequences, she no longer has memories of anything related to Metatron and both have lost touch of each other due to the long timespan. She pressed the call button and then spoke into the machine.

"Hello, its me. Would you be kind enough to let me in?"
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on October 10, 2015, 01:54:40 PM: "Someone is at the door." A nurse reported.
"Wat?" Hana wondered.
"Ighanna-Iguana? Iggy?" The nurse tripped over saying the name.
"Oh?... OH! I have to stay here though, can you please please please let her in for me and show her up here!" Hana was overjoyed, Mi-hime could have a visitor, even though it was someone who was gone from existence for a long long time.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Azuki Frappé on October 10, 2015, 02:16:17 PM: A nurse figure pressed some random numbers from the inside before the lock automatically rotated itself to unlock. The cold, metallic handle was levered down then tugged by the nurse who welcomed Ighanna into the penthouse. The nurse greeted her and offered to carry the baggage of souvenirs as she lead the path upstairs into the room Miyuki was in. Her mind wasn't so straight right now due to jet lag but she still managed to figure out someone must be feeling ill as there was a nurse in the house. She does recall her royalty cousin having three nurses as maids in order to apply immediate medical care incase an accident occurred but that was an extreme case.

"Hana, Miyuki, is there someone ill here?" Ighanna questioned as soon as the nurse dropped her off.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on October 10, 2015, 04:15:01 PM: Seeing as how Mi-hime was basically passed out and on a bed, Hana was wondering where that question came from. Though, she does remember herself being all cuckoo clock crazy due to jet lag after world tours too so it's understandable that Ighanna-Iguana-Iggy-Iggs THIS LADY was feeling kida strange. The nurse brought up the large bag of souvenirs.

Pray2Harmonics there's a snow globe in there.

"Mi-hime is sick, yeahhhh." Hana scratched the back of her head while sitting next to Miyuki and speaking to her visitor.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Azuki Frappé on October 10, 2015, 05:02:29 PM: "Oh, bye then" Ighanna replied as Hana rushed out towards the door nearly knocking the poor nurse over.

"Poor Miyuki" she said as she looked down onto the patient's face and gently felt her forehead with the neck of her fingers. She wasn't sure if Miyuki was asleep or not so this was probably the best way to check as waking her up from rest wouldn't be good for her health. The nurse then came up with a Miyuki's hospital-esque style food which was still very warm, the lid was also still intact keeping the warmth circulating inside the food.

"Miyuki, you're food's here. You better eat it soon or it'll get cold." Ighanna said as she gently tapped the girl to awake her from slumber. The nurse smiled a bit and prepared the table so Miyuki would require the least movement to get up and eat. She seemed quite adept at the skill of nursing.

Post by: Hope on October 15, 2015, 01:10:33 PM: Two days after the events of Hawaii and the First Dimension.

The Princess placed a well made egg breakfast onto the table. Hardboiled is so interesting, and omelettes are strange. She took a sip of coffee and opened up a newspaper.

And took a selfie.

She put down the newspaper and turned on the TV for the actual news. The Reverse was slowly dying down and the invasion isn't as widespread as it had been before. The remaining problems still hold a deep potential, with the Prime Minister himself being a reverse fighter and all. Things still had to be dealt with.

Nonetheless, it didn't hurt to have a little R&R.

She sent a mass text to those in her contact list:
"Anyone up for some breakfast? - Hana Isabella Espoir"

She shut hee phone and the news continued to blabber on.
The sun was out.

Hikaru leaves a note on the kitchen counter for his foster parents and foster siblings. Lately they have been getting along well and are on better terms. Hikaru is grateful for what they've been doing for him in the past few years. He should of realized it sooner. Locking the door and getting on the oblivion as he heads to the penthouse.
Title: Re: (GS3) Home Field: Kizoku Town Penthouse
Post by: Hope on October 15, 2015, 04:10:23 PM: Hikaru seems to have answered. That made breakfast less lonely. Would be nice if Mi-hime woke up though, but alas... Patience is a virtue. Kinda.

Eggs eggs eggs. Eating all of these eggs.
