Who: Chris, and you! [open post]
When: May 20th-May 30th, except for the 21st, because she busy ICly that day
Where: Both the Far and Near Shore
What: General Open Post
[Singing in the Park]
[Chris didn't know when she'd started receiving prayers like this, but it was a welcome change from the kind she usually received while playing the role of Ishtar. In this case, a young guitar player was trying to become noticed, and wished someone would come along to help him...
... and well. Chris had wanted to get out and perform in public more.
And so she was standing in the middle of the park, looking embarassed... but also singing, and with a smile on her face as the young man played accompanying music on his guitar.]
...Those times when I felt like crying, and those times when I did~
You were always there for me, "Don't lose your way," you said to me...
As you came closer and grasped my hand, You, my special someone...!
[ooc - This is technically taken from another series, but I needed something softer and which fit her character, so let's just handwave that part.]
[All work and no play make tiny god something something]
Oh come on!
[Today, Chris found herself at an arcade in the Near Shore, playing one of those Cardass type arcade machines. As it turned out, CanColle cards suffered from the same horrible distribution rates as the actual mobile game, and Chris was dead set on earning that rare, limited edition "Tommy-chan" card.]
Alright, you stupid son of a bitch, this time I'm winning that card, or you and I are going to have words.
[And so Chris shoved another yen coin into the machine, and narrowed her eyes, focusing on the gameplay... which appeared to be some weird hybrid of a strategy game, a rhythm game, and bullet hell involving anthropomorphized firearms? Somehow, it worked.
But she was determined to see this through... even if how well she did barely had a limited influence on what cards she earned.]
[Living on a prayer]
[Today? Today was about work. Chris had gone on a scouting, err, outing to gather information in advance of handling a prayer, but somehow, she'd managed to be caught unaware and was now deeply involved in a battle against an ayakashi that had been ruining a farmer's crops.
Said ayakashi looked like a very demonic, very large crow.]
Son of a bitch son of a bitch son of a bitch...!
[She'd already transformed into her gear form, but for now, she was focused on leading the enormous bird away from the populated area. Which meant running, and not being able to fight back. Continuing to curse to herself, she sent a text message to anyone she had in her social network, imploring them to see if they could come help...]
[Shopping]
[It was summer now, and Chris couldn't keep relying on all the clothes that Ginia and Irisviel had lent her. They were all more fitting for colder weather or formal occasions, and she needed something light and breezy.
So, she went out on multiple days, hitting clothing stores, malls, and shopping centers, shopping for clothes. Not just that, but things to decorate her temple. And... on several days? She'd found herself in shops she didn't normally frequent at all, like jewelry stores and shops that sold Japanese antiques. She could be found in such places, looking unsure of herself and staring hard in concentration at their wares.
She had a friend's birthday coming up after all.]

[If you want to thread with Chris but aren't feeling any of the prompts, just PM my journal and we can work something out!]

Her temple is otherwise quiet, so it's not hard to detect someone working in her kitchen. She moves cautiously at first, almost ready for something bad to happen, but relaxes as she sees it's just Chris.]
Ah... Yukine?
no subject
Yukine? Neither of you have ever called me tha-
[She looks up with a start again. And then she turns, and her face immediately lights up.]
Senpai!
[Don't worry, the resulting embarrassment will come soon.]
no subject
Why are you surprised to see me?
This is my temple, Yukine.
no subject
Well, uhm. You see, senpai, you've kind of...
... been asleep for several weeks.
[Okay, maybe not that hard.]
no subject
Weeks?!
[Her head's a bit cloudy, but that doesn't make a lot of sense...]
no subject
Yeah. You did that thing where people just... fall asleep for a time.
... Wait, you don't suddenly have a bunch of new memories, do you?
no subject
No, I cannot say that I do. I just recall going to sleep one night and now... this time has passed.
[She places a hand to her forehead.]
That is... vexing.
no subject
[Ah. Wait. That's embarrassing.]
I-I mean from being angry, you know.
no subject
Well... your concern is appreciated, Yukine.
[From being angry. Sure.]
I suppose I must chalk it up to the oddities of this place... but it is concerning... Is everybody else alright?
no subject
Everyone's fine. Ginia conked out for a while too, so I've been kinda flailing a bit, but she's awake by now.
... Why don't you have a seat. I'll finish breakfast, and then we can talk some more.
no subject
Her as well?
My apologies, Yukine. I hope you've been well too, then.
no subject
Well, I'm still alive, aren't I? I had Luger to pick up the slack.
... He's weeding the grounds right now, by the way.
no subject
...weeding? Was that... that necessary?
no subject
[Chris let out a satisfied sigh.]
Food's done!
