week two | dates

You worked up your courage and asked someone out on a date! Good job!





Now you have to hope the producers are kind re: where they send you.

[ she

knows she is the last person mitaka wants to see, for reasons that are unknown at the moment, but that's what this! is for! and sure, maybe it took some strong arming or deceit for the other girl to show, but that's. fine.

anna's outfit is in this style, but she's rocking a light blue instead of the pink palette... ]


Wow... Talk about impressive. Don't lag behind, okay? We've only got an hour and I'm competetive.

[ ...

she's talking to her, so. isn't that an improvement. ]
warhawks: (all you kept saying was)

[personal profile] warhawks 2024-11-19 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ Surprisingly, given Previous Events, it didn't take that much convincing to make Asa come. Sure the ride over was probably nothing but awkward silence, and sure she's standing just a bit too far away from Anna for things to be considered normal... but she's here! She's trying! Maybe she can't make things better, but she can at least stop them from getting worse. It's a whole new mindset.

Anyway she's wearing the only date outfit she brought with her. The jacket is probably brown and boring like her, but she's gone with the hairpin this time. Not making the same mistake twice! ]


I'll try not to hold you back. [ ... ] Um, thanks for inviting me out. I was starting to feel pretty cooped up in the house.

[ Read: having to constantly Interact with people was fucking her up. ]
makeine: (108 i'm super cute right now!)

[personal profile] makeine 2024-11-19 08:56 am (UTC)(link)
[ oh.

the ever emotional anna yanami hears "thanks" and tears sting at the corner of her eyes, throat tight as she clenches her fists. she'd told tsukasa, fondly, that mii-chan wasn't honest at all about her feelings, and that's why she'd wanted something arranged, but now she's being thrown. surely after last week she'd have more of a cold approach to anna, not. thanks. ]


Uh... huh, um. Yeah. No problem.

[ she brings her hands in front of her to play with her sleeve, walking into the first room. it's some puzzle about matching colors and sounds to the fairy houses and their flowers. anna really doesn't care. it's simple enough. ]

I think one's hidden. Or something.
warhawks: (my date just wheeled me home)

[personal profile] warhawks 2024-11-19 10:15 am (UTC)(link)
[ Asa bites her lip hard, letting Anna walk ahead of her. She knew trying would mean opening herself up to getting hurt, but she didn't expect it to be immediate.

It's fine. Now that they're here, she's determined to get through this without crying. ]


I'll look. [ She says quickly, taking the chance to turn her back without it being rude. A tiny bit of privacy for them both while she pokes and prods at the decorations for anything out of place. ] Have you beaten one of these before? You seem confident.

[ Then again, Anna seems confident all the time. Almost all the time. When certain people aren't saying horrible things to her. Yet another person Asa wishes she could be more like... if they'd stayed friends, she might have had the chance. ]
makeine: (14 into something fun)

[personal profile] makeine 2024-11-19 02:31 pm (UTC)(link)
... No, but there's that show where people are put into a room with a bunch of props that might or might not be chocolate, so I figure it's the same thing.

[ it

sure isn't but that's fine... anna'll take care of the obvious ones. ]


I've always wanted to go to one though. They always look so fun, even if it's kinda like M*rio P*rty. You know, test the limits of your friendships and all.

[ this is being edited out this show CANNOT handle a nintendo lawsuit. ]
warhawks: (don't be upset because i bitch slapped)

[personal profile] warhawks 2024-11-19 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
There's a show like that? Jeez, people will watch anything.

[ not Asa though. she has a high IQ :/

also mario party came out in december 1998 and she's from march 1998, i've never been more disappointed in a canon timeline. who cares if mario is having a party... it's not like she'd be invited anyway... :/ :/ ]


I think we've had enough testing already. [ That. Came out bad. She winces at herself, glad she can't see Anna's face right now. ] ... Let's just solve this. We still have the scavenger hunt to worry about.
makeine: (20 what other people thought)

[personal profile] makeine 2024-11-19 03:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[ i'm so fucking sad. girl we gotta get you to play. you'd hate it until you got boo and stole someone's star. the thrill is undeniable.

and yeah, she frowns at that, playing with a little fairy doll before she turns on mitaka with a sharp inhale-- ]


Why would I get hurt?
warhawks: (don't worry nothing happened)

[personal profile] warhawks 2024-11-19 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ The out of NOWHERE question... Asa blanches, caught too off guard to remember the camera crew following them, and with too much guilt to keep lying. She practically shouts her answer back, desperate to make her point. ]

It's what always happens, okay? My mom died because of me, and Crambon, and Yuko, and I'm just — I'm tired of it! But I'm still selfish enough to want friends! It's disgusting!
makeine: (138 what the)

[personal profile] makeine 2024-11-19 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not! Everyone deserves friends! Everyone deserves someone who wants to understand them, Mii-chan, and I want to understand you!

[ she's shouting too now. this happens all the time in escape rooms. ]

So let me, dammit! I wanna be your friend!
warhawks: (i hope you get stoned)

[personal profile] warhawks 2024-11-19 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
No way! If you died, I'd never forgive myself!

[ Ugly tears time... ]
makeine: (02 i asked my own heart)

[personal profile] makeine 2024-11-19 05:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you really think I could?! They turned Wednesday-chan's axe into a joke!

[ girl!!! ]
warhawks: (so i woke up alone in the hotel room)

[personal profile] warhawks 2024-11-19 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
That only works while we're here! What about afterward, huh?

[ What if she wants to stay friends... 4ever... ]
makeine: (44 it's happening little by little)

[personal profile] makeine 2024-11-19 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Then we can figure that out later, Mii-chan! But don't leave me hanging like that! Of all people, you!

[ who's been dumped, hurt before. anna's face contorts in pain. ]

I don't wanna be rejected again.
warhawks: (i imagine you as a cat)

[personal profile] warhawks 2024-11-19 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Anna...!

[ Can she hug her... she's gonna hug her. ]

I promise... I'll explain everything when I can. [ If she can. ] But for now, let's solve this puzzle! I want our picture up on that wall!
makeine: (14 into something fun)

[personal profile] makeine 2024-11-19 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ she can... anna'll hug her back, welcome your breast i mean your best friend back. ]

I want it too! Let's do it!

[ buddy they got like four braincells between them and the fairies are only the first part of this room. there's gnomes and shit too. drink from the tea cup. mushroom circles. all that shit. ]

Hm... I don't get it. The only fairy I know is a shoulder one.
warhawks: (i may or may not have tried to give)

[personal profile] warhawks 2024-11-19 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[ IT'S OKAY THEY HAVE THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP!!

Asa's looking around with Renewed Vigor, putting her half of the braincells to good use. She knows the final clue they need is in a locked book of fairytales near the exit... and she also knows they have approximately zero chance of solving all the puzzles in time to open it the proper way.

Frowning, she picks the book up and turns it over in her hands. She can't do anything about the lock, but the leather strap holding it shut might be a different matter. With a sharp enough knife... ]


... I have an idea, but I'm gonna need your help. Think you can block the cameras from seeing me for a few seconds?
makeine: (124 i'm not worried anymore though)

[personal profile] makeine 2024-11-19 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
You got it.

[ since one of them's got an idea, why not. anna side glances to see where the camera folk are before casually stepping in the way, brows furrowed as she peers at some kind of furry creature. it's cute. she has no idea what it is. she wishes she could take a picture of it and ask will, who might know, since he's from some version of britian, and they have fairies there.

but also she wants to see what mii-chan does so she'll be peeking too. ]
warhawks: (the bathroom smells like ribs)

[personal profile] warhawks 2024-11-19 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She glances over her shoulder once to make sure Anna has her covered, then inhales. It's hard to see what she's doing with her back turned, but she reaches up to take out her hairclip, then mutters hairclip pocket knife under her breath. Anna might overhear, but all that matters is that the cameras (and the people with them) don't.

A few seconds of what she hopes aren't totally obvious cutting motions follow, before: ]


Oh! It opened! [ Hastily hiding the knife inside her jacket sleeve as she reads the first page... ] It says we need to stand in front of the big wooden door and say: "and they both lived happily ever after!" Let's go!

[ Tossing the book somewhere it can't be immediately inspected and offering her spare hand to Anna, come on bestie— ]
makeine: (65 i asked my own heart)

[personal profile] makeine 2024-11-20 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ oh!!! okay, well, maybe she's actually super smart and totally brute forced it somehow, that's her girl??? anna'll take her hand. ]

Kinda lame, but okay!

[ to the wooden door...!!!! ]

On the count of three, Mii-chan. One, two...

[ they'll say it together..!!!!





please don't be a second late oh my god ]
warhawks: ("DO YOU LIKE FLYING KITES" WORKED)

[personal profile] warhawks 2024-11-20 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ Anna your delulu powers... anyway Asa's squeezing her hand as she counts down by way of confirmation. One, two: ]

And they both lived happily ever after! [ Normally she'd be right there calling it lame, but for some reason, she feels ecstatic instead. Some of it is the adrenaline from the rollercoaster of emotions she's been through today, but a lot of it is just... happiness. The happiness of feeling like a normal teenage girl. Like maybe life isn't so bad, if it has moments like this.

The door opens with a sudden flash! as their picture gets taken right at the big moment of success. Asa knows she looks like a sweaty, tear-stained mess, but she doesn't care about that right now. She didn't fall or make a fool of herself... they won! ]
We did it! We really did it! This was the best date ever!

[ The only competition it has is the time she nearly starved to death in an aquarium but. It's fine. Anna doesn't know that. ]
makeine: (72 a flower)

[personal profile] makeine 2024-11-20 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
[ anna's no better, but she's beaming and hugging onto mii-chan again. ]

Right?! And we've got the photo to prove it!!! Hey, can we get a copy to take back too?

[ ... yeah sure why not-- ]

We can put it on the wall for everyone to see, Mii-chan, and they'll know we're the greatest, smartest, most beautiful girls in the whole wide world!!!
