Kyouka is in a very good mood tonight, mostly due to the fact that Marry actually agreed to match with her. Bob must be very pleased, since they tried their very best to look just like them. She holds onto her hand, just in case she ends up getting lost somehow. A good buddy system, if you ask her. 

Lightly swinging their hands back and forth, she glances at the other girl. 

“Marry, what would you like to do?”

Favoring eyes know queen— watching, always watching from that world beyond, she can recognize girl, if nothing else. She does not know Marry on any intimate level, she does not retain those memories; but feels some sense of adoration, perhaps because she knows how beloved she is to the others. And in turn, ponders if other recognizes her in some manner, or if it is Ayano’s own retained ability that draws her close. 

. . . plop !

red hues idly glancing at what hit the water, his calm composure completely shatters when he realizes one of his ornate earrings had fallen out and into the water; blinking in disbelief, he yells as a first response.

“ ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING MEEEEE !? “

second response? he grabs his staff and throws himself out of the boat and completely parts the water where it fell immediately; keeping the boat steady, so its passengers are still secured, judal’s attention fully returns to searching for his missing jewelry. it couldn’t be that difficult to find. . . if only he had more eyes helping him look; perhaps then it would be easier. it’s not like he’s asking them to swim around in this shit, anyway. attention returning to the boat, he calls out to one of its passengers; she’s young, but something is better than nothing. “ hey. . . you ! ! help me find my other earring ! it looks exactly like this one. “ pointing at his other ear to show her what he was talking about, he leaves nigh zero room for question before continuing his search.

oh man, now he’s got this little girl mad at him; this was the end of the road… he’s kissing his hero career goodbye! he has a bright future ahead of him in the league of villains.“ geez, kid… you see, i didn’t think… he’d actually do it. ”

❝ Good God kid, take a breath or something! ❞

There’s no malice in the words, in fact they sound rather amused ( and perhaps there’s concern there, too ), as Nicolette gratefully accepts the offered box. She’s worried Marry will pass out from lack of oxygen soon from all that pent up energy she seems to have, so the woman is quick to open the gift and peer inside, smile growing larger with each item. 

The bag is definitely cute, and probably the nicest thing she’s ever received in terms of actual, genuine effort— same with the hair ornament. Sure, she loves store-bought items as much as the next person, maybe even MORE so, but there was something about these handmade presents that touches her and really feels special. ❝ Wow, did you make these? That’s… really impressive, actually! ❞

Wandering aimlessly around the city lead Seto to a flower shop within the inner city. Recalling the miniature garden he was given upon arriving in the city, he decided to search for seeds to plant. Although, he wasn’t too sure of what to plant, perhaps some flowers that bloomed in spring? What kind of flowers would-

Would... would who like? That was odd. He was sure he knew of someone who certainly liked flowers, yet why couldn’t he remember who they were? While he was unable to recall who it was he forgot, he had a strange feeling that they were important to him. 

Standing around, pondering over what he was unable to remember certainly wasn’t going to do him any good, especially since he had been standing in the doorway in a complete daze! Shaking his head a few times, he walks inside to look around. While unable to find any flower seeds at first glance, he instead begun to look at the potted plants. Yet as he looked around the store, more focused on the plants rather than his surroundings, he ends up walking right into someone, startling him.

After a while of walking around and eating, Kyouka decides it’s best that she goes to her... ‘new home.’ A key etched with a room number was included in her welcome package, so she assumes that’s where she’s supposed to live now. She’s fully aware that this place isn’t by an ability user or organization from Yokohoma now, so she’s more at ease than before. Still, she wonders if she’ll ever go back... but she won’t lie, being away from all the threats and fears from her daily life is... a welcoming change. But isn’t that selfish? She left the Agency behind. Hm.

She shakes her head and finds herself outside her room, opening it and peeking inside. She’s not sure if she’s staying with someone or not, there was no paper specifying that. If she was, she wouldn’t mind it, she was used to sharing a room with Atsushi. However, she knew him. This could be a complete stranger, and there’s a chance they won’t be very friendly or welcoming. She’ll just have to deal with it. She holds onto the teddy rabbit tightly, eyes wandering the room.

“Hello?”
