[OPEN + 1 closed]

Who: Ren & YOU
What: Shopping for things and experimenting with warding off ayakashi
When: May 1-4
Where: various places on the Near Shore
Warnings: n/a to start


A [ Shopping ]

i. May 1st, OTA

[After the disaster that was Amaterasu's pincic and the very tense days that have followed it, Ren has been in desperate need of getting out of the house and doing something for himself. Or mostly for himself. Besides, taking a break from work to have fun is what Golden Week is all about, isn't it?

So today he can be found flitting in and out of at least one dimly-lit shop full of mostly black clothing, spending far too long in a small shop contemplating coffee and tea choices, and standing outside a paper shop like he hasn't decided if he wants to go in or not.

Late in the afternoon, he can also be found rolling a plastic kiddie pool almost as tall as he in down the street. At least he's being careful not to run into anyone who doesn't seem to see him.
]


ii. May 2nd, closed to Shun

[So around midday on the 2nd, Ren sends Shun this text:]

kurosak-ki~ ( ゚▽゚)/ i want your advice on something~ could you meet me at [location]? i'm in the back (*^-‘) 乃

[The location given turns out to be a small thrift shop, and Ren's distinctively mess red hair can just barely be seen over the top of some of the racks near the back of the store, just like he said.]


iii. May 3rd until mid-afternoon, OTA

[Today has a very specific goal and that is to find The Perfect Water Gun. In this noble pursuit, he's already bought several small-but-larger-than-pistol-sized water guns as well as another much larger one, which all all weighing down the bag in his hands.

In his preoccupation with find another place to look for more, he's stopped paying much attention to where he's going and suddenly--BAM. Hope he didn't run into you too hard!
]



B [ Experimenting with Ayakashi - OTA ]

i. May 3rd around sunset

[All those water guns he bought earlier were for one purpose--to see what spraying shrine water at ayakashi will do (thanks for that idea, Shun). After all, he's on his own in the Near Shore more often than not, and anything he can do to ward off ayakashi would be a huge help.

So he's wandering around a park, taking aim at any small ayakashi he comes across. In fact, he had to start seeking them out in the first place because it seems to be working! But it's really only working to keep them away from him...
]


ii. May 4th around sunset

[Warding off smaller ayakashi went so well yesterday that Ren decided to seek out a bigger one today to see just how big one could get before the water stopped being effective.

This was (obviously) a bad idea.

He can either be found running from the bear-like creature he pissed off, or slumped behind something to hide from it, but either way, he's covered in blight and has zero water left to deal with it. Help?

You have kittens too?

[Wow, that is so not fair. Hibari has no idea how good he has it. Ahhh, if he wasn't about to meet Hiyori he'd go now!]

I'll for sure come by to play with them.

It's totally not fair. He just doesn't want any pets for some dumb, selfish, superstitious reason. But it's nice to know there's somewhere I can visit cats on the Far Shore. How many kittens do you have?
returnedfromtheline: (A; he's right I have been working hard)

(shiny new icon- perfect opportunity to use it)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-10-06 12:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Best. Just- just let him gaze happily at the cute kittens for a while. (He doesn't realize that he's blushing happily.)]

Maybe I could carry one wherever I go, too...

[He muses that to himself before snapping out of it at Hiyori's name.]


Huh? Oh, yah. It could be. I could just tell her that something came up though...

[[No, Yukine, go to your lesson.]]
returnedfromtheline: (/ hit the nail on the head)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-10-10 10:33 am (UTC)(link)
[Do you see the conflict on this kid's face? He is soooo conflicted right now!
...
But the right thing wins this time. With a resigned sigh:]


You're right. I can visit them later.

But- if I get done really fast today, could I still come for a bit?

[The days are getting longer, but it still might be near dark by the time he's done with Hiyori. He doesn't want to be out past sunset, even if it's to see kittens. But if he's fast enough...!]
returnedfromtheline: (> Hiyori the strict teacher)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-10-11 11:45 am (UTC)(link)
Right, right.

[Although he says it in an off-hand way, he's quietly plotting in the back of his mind how to get done as fast as he can...]

Thanks again. Mm. I wish I could give you a hand with the ducks too, but you'll probably be done by the time I get there.
returnedfromtheline: (o 'that'? what's that?)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-10-17 10:16 am (UTC)(link)
[That is very surprising news!]

Really? For me? What for?
returnedfromtheline: (o beautiful spring)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-10-31 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Yukine gapes.
For a bit. (Friend?!)

And a bit longer. (I have been working hard-! But he wanted to get me something just for that?)

And then his eyes get all shiny NOT teary! Not! (they totally are)]


Suzugamori-sama~! You're so nice! I promise, I'll come by as soon as I can!


[[Mission accomplished? He's already happy and he hasn't even gotten the gift yet.]]
returnedfromtheline: (| you okay with that?)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-11-03 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[It would be kinda fun for Hiyori to meet Suzugamori-sama, but also kinda embarrassing...
Yaaah, 'bout that pool- today is for sure more on the 'embarrassing' end of the spectrum.]


It's fine. You should get on with this. [Yukine gestures at the pool.]

I'll give you a text when I'm done.
returnedfromtheline: (/ I can survive anything)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-11-11 12:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Right.

[How much fun he has while studying is relative. But he smiles a little as he waves back.
There's no way a guy like that rolling a plastic pool down the street isn't funny, right?]


[Later, Yukine has begged asked Hiyori very nicely to be let off earlier tonight, and it worked. So it's only early evening when Yukine sends a text:]


I'm done, and can come over for a bit now.
returnedfromtheline: (/ totally not what it looks like)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-11-14 06:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Any time he might have gained slowly ticks by as he tries to find his own way to Suzugamori's place.
At least he's not above eventually asking for directions.

Once he arrives he comes directly in as asked and calls into the courtyard,]


Pardon me! I'm here, Suzugamori-sama!

[And besides looking around for the god, he's also keeping an eye out for cats and ducks. (His phone's camera is in his pocket ready to go just in case, you know.)]
returnedfromtheline: (A; he's right I have been working hard)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-11-14 10:11 am (UTC)(link)
Ah-

[No, wait, play it cool, Yukine you got this--
No, he doesn't got this. The cool lasts a whole .5 seconds.
The ducks are adorable and the cats are coming to him and god they're so fluffy-!

In an effort to not trip on the kittens, you know, Yukine just bends down and holds his hand out towards them.

He's in heaven~ (in more ways than one...)]
returnedfromtheline: (> lose myself here)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-11-14 10:50 am (UTC)(link)
[Nope, this is good. All good.

Yukine is surprised at how bold the kitten is, but slowly sits down on the floor. It'll be more stable for him, and if the kitten slips it won't have far to fall.

As for the second kitten, Yukine gently pets it, scratching it a bit behind the ears. (He seems to have a good sense for this, even if he doesn't remember why.)

Sorry, Suzugamori-sama. There... was probably something else he was going to do here? But he forgets what at the moment.]
returnedfromtheline: (/ tsun-dere)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-11-17 01:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure. [Not like he’s happy to do that or anything. (He super is.) He sticks his hand into the bag, and the kittens watch him intently. That orange one is really cute too!

Once the black-and-white and black kittens on him realize that he now has snacks in his hand, they at once shift loyalty and focus their attention from Suzugamori back on him. (Heh~.)
As he gives each of the kittens a treat he asks,]


What are their names?
returnedfromtheline: (> the small bell)

[personal profile] returnedfromtheline 2016-11-28 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yukine nods though- it's best to not play favourites too much.]

Tenryuu. [His eyes narrow for a moment. It reminds him of something a little painful, although the name likely has a different meaning and the context is completely different. Trying to laugh it off he gives the orange a treat.] A noble name, is it?

And Phantom- she is very energetic and friendly, isn't she. [A treat for you~]

And Tama. There, there, you're a good kitty too! [And a treat for you~!]
