   “--Ruby! Just the person I wanted to see!”

   Dancer chimes, hands clasped together, and eyes of ocean’s blue are alight with mischief; the Arc clearly having a plan brewing. Poor rose has little choice in listening to his disarray, hands fluttered in the air in accompanying gestures to the voice of muddied thoughts that begins to spew.

   “Okay, so, I was THINKING--for our next game session, we should home-brew our own! I’ve been reading all this stuff online about it, and we could put together this big World and just do whatever we want with it. We could like--make our own monsters! Like spooky wolves and birds, made out of shadows or something!”

   Hand waved dismissively, head shaken to follow and a needed breath is taken before he’s able to continue.

Yusuke wouldn’t personally consider himself to be a purely altruistic being, but with the buzzing atmosphere of excitement and anticipation that came with the festivities he couldn’t help but put himself in a position where he could witness and perpetuate the contagious sensation.

More or less roped into being an honorary member of the set-up crew, his task today was to help an engineering student... test the confetti cannons. They hadn’t been used since the year previous, and a malfunctioning hydraulic propelling machine... wouldn’t be the most sensible thing to bring to a countdown party.

He was quite enthralled with the contraptions he realised as he headed toward the engineering building. The violence and suddenness of the burst of colour was an excellent parallel to that of human anticipation; the spunk that the species possessed, the potential held within, ready to escape at any time under pressure with a sudden

Bang!

Yes, just like that! The ringing of the ears, the vibrations lasting in the chest... The muffled curse that followed...

He picked up the pace, weaving through the building’s halls and slamming the workshop door.

Shouko knows that she shouldn’t be staring. Staring isn’t polite after all! But how could she resist taking a good look at the piercings adorning her classmate’s ears? Shouko has only ever seen such piercings on the internet and magazines— never up-close. They look so pretty and mesmerizing that she just couldn’t simply take her eyes away from them. Unfortunately, her state of awe has taken away her reflexes because the second her classmate catches her staring, she fails to immediately look away.

Shouko flinches in her seat, embarrassed. She quickly places her clenched hand on her chest and moves it in a circular motion in an attempt to express her apology for staring.

Rolling up to Froyolo was directly against doctor’s orders. He was supposed to be on a low sugar, very high protein diet for the duration of this miserable “recovery.” And yet, her he was, hopping off his bike and pulling off the helmet. If he was being technical, riding or driving any sort of vehicle was also against doctor’s orders. He shouldered his way into yogurt shop and stopped suddenly, spotting the corner of pictures and lights.
