WUKONG.

YUKI.

It was precisely Yuki's nature to be silent for hours upon hours, before randomly verbalizing whatever thought of hers required outside input, catching you off guard, making you jump out of your skin and, usually, fail to hear what she says.

In the quiet of the clubroom, devoid of the other membership, though, Mikuru can hear her just fine. She at least manages repress a squeak.

Her feelings for the other girl are...mixed. In their totality, she sees Yuki in a series of irreconcilable contradictions. Her presence can inspire in her both a stalwart sense of safety and abject terror. She's strong, the strongest of them by a long shot, but also the gentlest. Utterly stonefaced, yet overwrought with emotions. Trapped by her past, yet the most free out of all of them.

If you ask her a question, she'll answer truthfully, easily. If you want to test the size of her palm or the softness of her hair, the girl is completely open to this perusal. Yuki is free. Her personhood is her own. Her body, her mind, they belong only to her. Her abilities, the her mind, boundless gifts she gives to others, these are all hers.

It makes her jealous.

And also, entranced.

A series of irreconcilable contradictions.

                    ‶  a  mountain!!  ″  you  lift  up  the  vase  into  the  air,  boldly  marching  into  the  club  room  to  place  the  object  down  on  the  desk  of  the  brigade  chief.  that’s  all  the  information  you  disclose-  it’s  not  like  you  have  any  specifics  you  would  know  or  care  to  elaborate  on.

                    the  contents  inside  are  of  a  flower-  one  similar  to  an  orchid  but  not  quite.  in  fact,  it’s  completely  unique.  something  that  has  yet  to  even  been  given  a  scientific  classification.  the  brigade  chief  asked  for  something  unique  and  you  were  sure  to  deliver!  with  enough  determination  you  were  sure  you  could  fulfill  any  request  required  to  join  this  brigade.  so  long  as  you  were  allowed  to,  that  is.

                    you’re  about  to  do  a  full  spin  on  your  heel  back  towards  the  door-  but  you  pause.  it’s  not  as  if  you  actually  have  anywhere  to  go.  you  don’t  actually  attend  any  classes...  you  don’t  have  a  specific  place  to  be  quite  yet...  and  the  rest  of  them  will  be  a  little  while...

                    recalling  your  answers  to  the  test  you  took  earlier,  you  do  a  spin  on  your  heel  and  face  towards  yuki  nagato.  someone  you  would  very  much  enjoy  having  a  conversation  with.  after  all,  you  knew  what  she  was.  you  think  she  knows  what  you  are  too.  but  there’s  really  no  need  to  talk  about  it  openly.  you  shouldn’t  be  too  careless...  not  anymore  than  you  usually  are!

                     typically  when  you  spent  time  alone  with  nagato,  it  was  because  you  were  discussing  some  supernatural  happenstance.  concerns,  alliances,  solutions,  and  information  gathering.  this,  however,  was  different.  you  had  begun  to  find  a  little  more  comfort  in  her  company.  never  so  much  that  it  would  override  your  allegiances,  but  there  was  a  reason  you  had  promised  kyon  to  ally  yourself  with  them  when  push  came  to  shove.  even  if  just  once.

                     the  book  in  your  hands-  yōgisha  ekkusu  no  kenshin-  falling  into  your  favorite  genre  of  crime  and  mystery.  ever  since  t  had  started  coming  to  the  clubroom,  you’ve  found  yourself  revisiting  your  old  hobby  of  reading.  it  was  nice  to  do  something  so  mundane  and  nostalgic  every  now  and  then.  and  it  was  only  natural  to  join  the  only  member  of  the  literature  club  in  the  activity.

                     as  you  get  invested,  you  fail  to  remember  to  keep  your  smiling  facade.  your  brows  furrow  as  you  continue  forward,  thinking  through  the  events  of  the  book.  the  battle  of  wits  between  yukawa  and  ishigami  had  thoroughly  begun  to  enthrall  you.  it’s  something  you  might  take  inspiration  from.  

                     only  in  one  of  your  fabricated  murder  mysteries,  of  course.

                     then,  the  sound  of  a  camera  shutter.  you’re  snapped  out  of  your  serious  expression  with  a  blink,  processing  the  noise  and  looking  up  to  the  one  responsible  for  it.  you’re  surprised  to  find  the  culprit,  despite  the  fact  only  the  two  of  you  were  present  at  the  moment.
