((ahhh just a note that im going on a bit of a semi-hiatus! with my recent working schedule im having difficulty juggling my different rp accounts so. this is one of the ones that i won't be on much for a while, but i'll hopefully be back here in a few days! just wanted to leave a heads up.))
3 more people have entered the gamble
âAsahina-chan and two new faces? Why hello there! Are you here to play a game perhaps?â
"That depends entirely on the kind of game. What did you have in mind?"
amaidensheart started following you
Perhaps something⊠even more simple. Meditation is very calming, and would be able to make you as âcoolâ as you say I am.
Donuts a well? âŠSince this is an outing, I suppose we could. We must exercise the fat off later, of course. Yes, let us be off, Asahina.
Meditation? Like sitting cross-legged and humming until you float? I can do that! I'll sit with my legs criss-crossed until they get stuck that way, if that's what it takes!
Yes, yes, I'll exercise forever and ever. But food first! Ah, let's go! The faster we get there, the faster we can eat!
[Aoi tugs Sakura's arm before sprinting off in the direction of the nearest ramen stand, waving her arm to signal the wrestler to follow her lead.]

Mukuro frowned as she went on and on about how she wasnât âfeminineâ or âattractiveâ to anyone. That was so stupid. Why should she fit herself into some sort of societal construct just to make people like her? It was so fake! She grabbed Asahina by the shoulder with one hand and slapped her face with the other. Perhaps that was just a little unneeded, but her emotions were very conflicted at the moment.Â
âDonât you dare say that. Youâre perfect as you are! Youâre extremely attractive! I-I⊠not that I want you, but⊠if someone ever rejects you, Iâll personally slice their throat open!â
"Ow!"
Asahina rubbed her newly red and stinging cheek, shooting a hurt glare towards Mukuro. "What the hell?! I already fell on my butt, isn't that enough punishment?" She pouted, confused and indignant and, wow, that girl really knew how to slap someone silly. But what had she done wrong? She was only spouting off what she already knew.
"I... Okay? Er-- Don't kill anyone, though! But, yeah, I think I'm pretty awesome, too. Doesn't mean I don't have faults. Not that I think my lack of conventional femininity is necessarily a fault, it just makes things hard in the dating area? That's all."
((sorry about the lack of replies yesterday!! last night when i got home i just cooked and crashed
depending on how busy we are today i'll try to get some responses pushed out at work and otherwise get to what i can after my shift ends
(and chihiro mun i will reply to you once i have access to a mic again or i can respond w/out that part sooner if you want!!) ))

She wanted to just snap out of it and act like a normal person. But she couldnât. Her heart was coated in confusion and these sharp feelings, the handles of which were pointed towards Asahinaâs compliments. Mukuro murmured in response, unable to work her voice up, and her cheeks burned a bright red.Â
âTh⊠thatâs not true. Youâd never even want to date me in the first place, even if I offered⊠I mean, why would I offer? Itâs not like Iâm attracted to you as well or anything. Thatâs foolish. Even the thought of someone like you doing something romantic like dinner is just stupid to even consider.â
"I'm willing to try anything once. But I wouldn't be offended if you weren't attracted to me. Most people aren't. Which is okay! I'm the sports girl that's always at the gym and drinking protein shakes and punching people in the shoulder, just one the guys. I'll get around to learning how to be properly feminine eventually, but... Well, I have bigger things on my plate to worry about, you know? Like the Olympics. And not failing my classes. Laughing at jokes that aren't funny and wearing sundresses isn't my style."
âIt may sound easy, Aoi-chan, but trust me, Iâve tried. Itâs super, duper hard! The sound really moves around, and it stays for a while too. I can hardly remember what I play down there.â
"Wait, you've really tried before?"
"What happened?! Did you meet a mermaid? Did Atlantis pay you in sunken treasure chests? You have to tell me everything!"

Why was it so hard to explain that she wasnât attractive? Wasnât it obvious? She was the person that had the great luck of being somehow ugly, despite having a gorgeous twin sister. It didnât make sense, but it did. She crossed her arms, frowning.Â
âWhat gave me that idea? Well, Junko-chan, mirrors, pools of blood I found myself reflected in⊠everything.â
Her sentence halted when the girl in front of her fell backwards in a seemingly comical fashion. But, when she spoke, Mukuroâs heart sunk further. She didnât want her? So she wasnât attractive after all. It was foolish to even offer such a thing, because on what planet would anyone want to spend time with her in that fashion? Â Her gaze turned to the ground, and her voice shifted to a whisper.Â
ââŠI see. I apologize.â
"Hey, now, you stop that." Asahina shook her head, frowning. Why was Mukuro so insistent of her own lack of self worth? She was so much more than an emotionless tool, than a simple accessory to Junko Enoshima, and the fact that she claimed otherwise pulled at the girl's heartstrings.
"You're just as pretty as Enoshima. In fact, don't tell her I said so-- but you might just be prettier. Those freckles are adorable." Having regained her composure, she tapped the downtrodden soldier on the nose. "I'm just a romantic weenie, it's not your fault. It was actually really nice of you to offer! Most guys won't go out with me 'cause they say I'm not girly enough, so... Yeah." Cue an embarrassed smile.
An interesting comparison she was making, but he had to admit it grabbed a chuckle from him. Her upbeat personality worked in her favor, for as tense as he was, with everything that went on around him, he could relax around someone who was completely against any idea of âdespairâ. She couldnât be involved, so that erased any suspicion and he did his best to enjoy a rare and unprecedented meeting with someone. Considering she WAS a Hopeâs Peak Student, he figured that their class had been spared from something, or maybe theyâd never been at the academy at all. With what little Souda could remember preceding this event, he just figured he was drugged and dragged around, and probably never saw the building, minus the entryway. âNice to meet ya too, Aoi.â He responded, a grin, a real one, finding itâs way to his face.
âSeem like youâre really in your element then. I was never much of a swimmer, sink like a rock actually, so thatâs pretty impressive.â Souda was always impressed by physical feats, however, so people like Nidai and Akane, though he was a bit intimidated by them, earned his respect pretty quickly. The mechanic noted her attitude, and wasnât out to ruin it with any depressing news. he was tired of talking about it, so why not pretend this really was just a normal island for once? It would have been, had that rabbit been able to keep her stupid stick in hand, so maybe he could call all this madness a dream and save face. He didnât mind pretending, even if heâd wake up tomorrow and have something crash down, it was worth it for a real smile to parade over his face. âIâm a Super High School Level Mechanic, myself. Not much good for swimminâ, but if anything needs work, ya can count on me! Iâve been tryinâ to fix up the planes on this island, but theyâre lacking an engine. Wish I had more changes to work. Least youâve got room to stretch ya wings here.â
He blinked at she pulled on his clothes, not used to people in his space, and he was the type to get flustered easily, especially around a girl. And she, despite being the athletic type, well⊠he had to admit she was pretty good looking in his book. âNah, I just woke up and heard someone out here, so I was curious.â Even if it was pretty late to âjust wake upâ he had always been a late riser, had trouble in elementary school because of it. Sometimes his brother had just picked him up and dropped him off without even waking Souda up at all. âAs for this well, itâs my work clothes. Itâs comfortable and all, despite the heat. And I donât really have anythinâ else to wear. My baggage sorta⊠got lost in transit. Canât really run around in my underwear, now can I?â Though sometimes he did pull the jacket portion of his outfit down, typing it around his waste to hold it. This WAS heavy clothing, meant for someone who worked around machines and sharp objects to wear so they wouldnât get caught in anything. He wore the hat for the same reason, kept his hair out of the way. And he just liked it.
"What? Like a rock? No way, not possible! Anyone can swim if theyâre taught properly. Itâs like riding a bike, you never forget." She waggled her point finger, emphasizing her point with a wry smile. "Plus, I donât know what it is, but Iâm kind of getting a shark vibe from you. Know what a shark is? King of the ocean, thatâs what. I bet swimming is in your blood, you just donât know it yet!" Leave it to Asahina to relate any and all topics back to swimming. Or food.
"A mechanic, huh?" It was no secret that she herself was lacking in the technical department. While she took to swimming like a fish to water (pun intended), any subject that required anything more than basic intelligence went right over her head. With sports it was muscle memory, her body conditioned after vigirious training to meet any demand, but the brain was one muscle she hadn't worked as extensively. She was, in layman's terms, a ditz.
"Even so, I don't know how you stand it. Is there nowhere around here to buy more clothes? I would get soooo hot." She fiddled with his sleeve further, knitting her brow and very nearly pouting as she yanked the fabric. This kind of material? On this kind of a beach? That was just silly. "You don't have a swimsuit to change into or anything?"

Dear diary,
Working out with Sakura-chan has gotten harder lately. I don't know why, but sometimes when I look at her while I'm lifting weights I feel really hot and prickly all over, kind of like I do when I just got done running a marathon.
I guess I need to work on my endurance. Or eat less donuts. Or maybe I can just eat a bunch of itty bitty donuts instead...
-- xoxo!! Asahina

Dear diary,
I thought I was asleep when I met Ikusaba, but my bottom is still sore.
I'm really confused.
I think Hagakure put a curse on me with his fortune teller mojo.
-- â„ â„ â„ Asahina
At the girlâs restrained laughter the heir felt his veins surge with a boiling rage. Calm yourself Togami. Remember your blood pressure. She isnât worth your time. Though at her questions and further snickering he only became further enraged. He was already by the door, almost away from the situation- almost at a state where he was comfortable. Though she was openly mocking him. He shouldnât need to feel this embarrassed.
Hmph. He was about to walk away and leave this uncomfortable situation behind him- though perhaps he could prove to cause her some discomfort or embarrassment first. He paused in the doorway to look over his shoulder at the swimmer. âNo. That isnât it⊠I merely have an erection.â He was tired of dodging the matter- and hopefully that idea would at least prove to shut up that gawking hyena of a swimmer.

âI am⊠attractive?â
Slowly, the pieces began to fall in place. Was that what Asahina wanted from her? Did she have intimate feelings blossoming in her heart, forming a beautiful lily? She wasnât sure how to process this. After all, when it came to such matters, she was anything but forward and dominant. But, it became steadily clear what it was that Asahina meant. So it was like what Junko did. Maybe, if she allowed the Swimmer to proceed further, she may prove to be beyond a disappointment to her. She swallowed before continuing.Â
ââŠY-you may touch me, if you wish.â
"Well, duh! Of course you're attractive, whatever gave you the idea that you weren't?" Asahina shook her shoulders for emphasis, but her face blanked at Mukuro's next sentence. Her gaze shifted from the girl's face to her exposed chest and back up to her face so quickly that she might as well have whiplash. If she was in an anime, a series of ellipses would surely be dot-dot-doting above her head.
But she wasn't, and instead she let go of her shoulders and backed up, caught her heel on a rock, and promptly landed on her bottom.
"... Thank you, universe." She mumbled and made to get up, wincing. "Anyway, Ikusaba-- That's... Ooh, that stings-- Nice of you to offer, but, like I said, I don't. Um. I wouldn't know what to do in that situation? And I'm kind of old-fashioned, so... Unless you were planning to ask me out to dinner, I don't think that's a good idea."
A Chance Encounter || Chihiro&Aoi
The young boy sat with a laptop in his lap, nothing was exactly happening. He and Togami decided that today they would find information on their own. There wasnât much to find on this computer, there were some suspicious files that were so protected that it would take Chihiro about an hour or 2 to crack them open. That is why he came to the library, he needed a calm space to focus on the hacking. He typed and typed away, completely into what he was doing, this file was almost completely hacked! He just needed to type a little bit here, type a little bit there, and he would be in, after 1 hour of hard work. He was about to finish, when his surname was called, which made him jump, letting his laptop fall off of his lap, immediately picking it back up. The squeal he let out was embarrassingly loud. He looked over at who the call came from. That small swimmer girl sure can yell.
â~Ah..! Asahina-sanâŠ? Asahina-sanâŠ.Iâm very glad to see youâŠ!~â He was startled by what his voice did, he was singing, and doing it well! He wasnât normally much of a singerâŠin fact he normally had the crackily voice of a prepubescent boy.
â~Iâm sorryâŠ.why am I singing?~âÂ
â~Asahina-sanâŠAsahina-sanâŠâŠâŠhave you any ideaâŠ..why Iâm singing..?~â
(click those links i literally sang to giv e an idea )
He was... Singing? Huh. That hardly seemed like normal behaviour. But he had a nice voice, and while he did seem a bit... Bewildered, what was the harm in a little cheery tune? Asahina opened her mouth to retort-- and the voice that came out from within her left the swimmer stunned. She sang in a soprano voice with a resonating vibrato, and her words were rhyming and in time and why was this happening?! She grabbed at her throat, prodding with her fingers to find some sort of collar or speaker or something, but the mystery remained unsolved.
" âȘ I don't know -- What's going on -- It's all so very strange... These words all so arranged -- In perfect harmony? I can't... I can't speak words alone? Please, make this singing stop -- Can't do this 'round the clock -- At least not in a library! âȘ "
