  And then suddenly the girl’s previous anger had somehow disappeared. Alluka mentally shrugged, maybe he really was too young to understand girls. At least that’s what Killua had said once when the topic somehow came up. In any case, Alluka tilted his head at her claim.

"Akko…you’re a witch? I think Onii-Chan read me a story about them once, they use magic and fly on brooms, right?"

A small smile as he remembers some of the times that Killua would read him a story. Luckily for Akko, Alluka doesn’t really remember that most witch stories make witches bad guys.

[headstrongidealist-blog]

We sure do!I could do even cooler stuff, too, if it wasn't for those stupid scientists...

  |Akko switched back to anger again, letting out an annoyed groan and folding her arms. Her focus goes back to the young boy in front of her. That was...quite the outfit he had on. Hopefully he wouldn't notice her staring.|

  "It’s not what you said?"

Alluka was beginning to get more confused by this girl with every second that passed.

Nanika…this person is pretty weird, isn’t she? Yeah, I don’t really know what she wants either…I thought I understood what she said but I guess not? If only Onii-Chan was here, he’d probably understand.

"Oh, I’m Alluka. Who are you?"

You were supposed to ask who someone was after saying who you were, right Nanika?

[headstrongidealist-blog]

|Akko nods, seeming to lose her patience. This guy was sort of air headed, wasn't he? Still, he had this calm vibe to him, it was almost welcoming. Forgetting her previous griefs, Akko tips her hat and introduces herself.|

Akko Kagari! I'm a witch!

|Of course, it doesn't cross the brunette's mind that "witch" can have negative connotation where this boy is from.|

  Of course, Alluka had no idea of the mixed feelings that the young witch was having toward him. In fact, even if one were to bring it up he wouldn’t understand what they were talking about. Perhaps in this case, it is true that girl’s mature a little bit faster than boys on an emotional level.

Although he didn’t get why she seemed to be yelling, he nodded in understanding. Well, almost understanding.

"Alright, you want me to not tell anyone but to tell them you fought a dragon if they ask?"

"I understand." But it was still weird.

[headstrongidealist-blog]

Huh?

|Akko realized the misunderstanding when the boy repeated her words. She shakes her head and flails her arms and disapproval.|

No! That's not what I said at all! Tell them I fought a dragon, okay---

..Uh...What's your name again..?

|Akko had a rather sharp memory, but the range of emotions she felt kept her distracted.|

[abladeofconviction]

[Intro/Open]

┌Silence. There was a deafening silence, even as she slept her dreams were empty, everything was far to still. ‘Wake up’. She stirred. ‘Wake up!’ Green eyes slid slowly open to find herself in a room not her own. It was… familiar in a way. Something lingered in the back of her mind, and trying to grab a hold of it was like trying to remember a dream long after you had woken up.

It was faint, but there was definitely a sense of familiarity for the pink-haired girl. Soon she gave up trying to recall whatever it was she was forgetting. Instead she headed out into the unfamiliar world. There were things left and right that only looked vaguely familiar, like things that existed where she had come from, but they were different. They seemed to run on something other than magical energies, and they seemed to appear more… advanced, but at the same time less so. It was hard to explain.

Calm was on the girl’s face, she relaxed into the setting of the city. With this she supposed her mission had been deemed a failure. But there was hardly any helping it when she was no longer on the island. The island… Ul! Green orbs widened a fraction. Was she here? What about the others? Was she alone in this unfamiliar place? Or had this come about from the fairies? So many questions were running through and being processed quickly in the child’s mind. But instead of opening her mouth to speak even one she just stood there frozen in place, staring blankly across the street as if the building there held all the answers her mind couldn’t seem to find.┘

[headstrongidealist-blog]

Auuuuuugh!

|Akko hadn't timed her broom usage properly. She had spent a total of five minutes on her broom already, and didn't take in the thirty seconds it took to land safely. The young witch found herself spiraling downwards. At least she was landing towards some grass. That certainly beat trees.|

Oof!

|The brunette lands on her face, right in front of the other female. After some groans, Akko makes it to her knees, turning her head...and finally notices the other, realizing that she landed right in front of the other female. Well that's rather embarrassing. Akko springs onto her heels.|

Y-You didn't see anything, got it!?

We're Not In the League Anymore: Intro ][Open][

"Not even a single pond?" 

As with any new obstacle that came the Marai’s way, Nami tackled the task of exploring this new city with determination and enthusiasm. The only problem was that she had yet to see any sort of body of water. Although she was able to easily maneuver on land because of her magic, it would be a lot easier to cope with this dramatic change if she could just have a nice swim in a lake, or even a pool. It would give her something familiar to hold on to while she recollected her thoughts so she could figure out what to do next. Nami couldn’t afford to waste any time dawdling in Hive City, she had an important quest to attend to!

She could feel the stares of strangers upon her as she moved, but it was a nuisance she could easily shake. Silly land dwellers, they were always so surprised to see her ‘walking’ among them… but it probably wasn’t every day they saw a woman that was half fish from the waist down, hovering a foot or so above the ground thanks to a special enchantment. She could weave through crowds of people as they scattered like a school of fish, her elegant cerulean tail fluttering behind her as she literally swam through the air. 

Finally she decided to take a break and took a seat on an empty bench, heaving a sigh as she laid the wooden staff in her hand beside her. It was probably just as functional as any other staff, but it just wasn’t the same as hers. 

"Oh?" 

It seemed she might have caught the eye of a passerby. 

"What’s the matter? Haven’t seen a pretty girl with a tail before?" Nami giggled as her tail gently slapped the ground for emphasis.

[headstrongidealist-blog]

|Akko rested her back on the bench, allowing the sun to hit her face. The sound of some hushed whispers and muffled "wow"s caused the brunette to glance over at the busy crowd. Above them, there was a ..fish woman? Flying, she was flying. Akko had to admit, that was pretty impressive. She straightens up, watching the other female in her own silent awe.

Akko's still staring as the other takes a seat on the other end of the bench. The young witch can't help but fluster when she's called out. Crossing her arms, she scoffs.|

Tch! Don't flatter yourself.

I just...didn't know people could fly without brooms, is all!

  Hsien-Ko probably would’ve tripped over the girl on the grass, had she not called out at the last moment. The jiangshi had been preoccupied with something or other, and now stared at the girl, stuck between reality and whatever she’d been thinking of.

"Oh! Dui bu qi! I didn’t even see you there. My bad!" she said, finally opting to return to reality. She smiled for a moment, fixing the girl with a friendly grin and a somewhat invasive stare. “I was thinking about food. I haven’t eaten in hours, you know?"

She gave a sigh, shrugging. “Anyways. It’s not good to lie. And it’s okay to cry, too! We all have our emotional moments, after all, and crying’s just a part of life! Which is why I don’t cry anymore. I mean, some ghosts cry, but not me. That’s more of a western myth kinda thing, but I think the Spanish have something like that too…?"

But the girl’s pondering on mythology was cut short by a ghastly wail from her stomach. "Aiya,  I always ramble when I’m hungry," she said with a sigh. Her attention went back to the girl on the grass, actually talking to her and not just at her this time. “Do you know where we could find some food around here? Even just a little food stall would be fine. Unless you wanted to cry some more on this hill? That’s fine too."

[headstrongidealist-blog]

|The young witch raised an eyebrow at the other female's appearance, but quickly decided she didn't care after all. She bore a foreign look, but Akko did go aroud in a witch's costume..It was the only thing she had besides her drab school uniform, and she was proud of her title. Why not let others know of the power she possess? Akko's own stomach growls at the sound of food.

The witch doesn't seemed too surprised about the whole "ghost" thing. She wasn't..scared, per se (she was)  of the idea of ghosts in her world, but in Hive City..every world was so different. Ghosts must be friendly from wherever this girl was from. Either way, Akko found herself appreciating the other's kindness, even if it was unintentional.|

...Thanks.

|Akko mumbles before rubbing her eyes once more, lifting her head to finally face the other. Akko's cheeks puff.|

H-Hey! I told you, I wasn't crying!

...There's a noodle place not far from here.

  Spaghetti and meatballs sure hit the spot. Enma could barely walk after leaving the restaurant. Maybe taking advantage of the all you can eat buffet wasn’t such a good idea. But he’d neglected food for about four days, so he was a bit hungry by the time he stepped in there.

Even so, things were still way too lonely here. It was hard to actually enjoy anything in this city given the people who were in charge of it and the fact that none of his friends were here. All he really spent his days doing was moping and secluding himself in his room. It might do him some good to actually instigate conversation with someone, but you’d have a hard time getting him to willingly approach someone.

Seemed he didn’t have to, though.

"E-EH?! I DIDN’T DO ANYTHING!"

He hadn’t even noticed the girl until she spoke. And now she was mad at him?! Crying??? Well.. she did look like she was crying. She actually looked like she might cry again at any moment.

"Err.. Are you alright?"

[headstrongidealist-blog]

|Akko stubbornly wiped some more tears from her face, the boy's shock and yelling causing her to grow more upset. Of course, she couldn't expect a different reaction from him, after the way she addressed the male.|

I...I'm fine! Jeez! I'm not a baby!

|The words of concern sink in, and Akko feels bad for yelling. She hangs her head in shame, a rare action for  the witch, as she nods.|

...Thanks.

  Alluka was confused, why did the girl in front of him look so upset. Their face seemed to be a little shiny with tears too. Not that Alluka would have really recognized that as a sign of crying but still, it was a curious thing.

"Crying? Buzz off?" Was she crying Nanika? And what does it mean to buzz of? Yeah, I don’t know either.

In any case, now there was just silence between the two of them. Alluka made no sign of moving and neither did the girl. It really wasn’t his fault though, he didn’t exactly know how to interact with other people not unless Killua was around.

"Alluka, doesn’t know what you mean."

[headstrongidealist-blog]

|Akko's lip quivers, and she stares down the..rather pretty boy. No, now wasn't the time to flirt with the enemy, Akko. Though she was a witch at heart, she was also a teenage girl, and found herself at mercy of a young man's charms. This cause her glare to intensify. 

The young witch was caught off guard by the other's third person speech, but she eventually puzzles it together.|

I-It means...d-don't tell anyone that you saw me like this, okay!?

If people ask, I was battling a dragon! Got it!?

|How long had it been since Akko had been spirited away to this place? It bothered her that she couldn't remember. Scratching her head in frustration, the witch allows herself to lay back onto the grass with a sigh. It felt like she had been here for so long...Akko had seen people come and go, and the saddest part was, she still felt like she didn't have any friends here.

Which..was stupid to be upset about. Akko didn't need friends! But being lonely did get old. She sits up once more, knees to her chest. Against her will, a frown forms on her lips before a stray tear goes down her cheek. Akko decides to let herself cry, for now. No one was here, so it was okay that she let out a small sob, and that she had hidden her face in her knees.

It was okay until she heard someone approaching. Akko's heart stops, and the witch finds herself springing onto her heels and wiping her face.|

H-hey! I wasn't crying or anything, so buzz off!

|There was the likelihood that the stranger took no heed to the young female, but it was better to be safe than sorry, in her opinion.|

  > Karkat: Be mortified.

You’re mortified, alright. You’re quivering all fucking over with barely suppressed embarrassment and rage. This is kind of incredibly bad for you and your reputation as the ghetto’s fearsome spectral streetwalker, the guy with two curved blades and a permanent snarl, even though that doesn’t actually exist. This is kind of incredibly bad for - fuck, everything. You push the heel of one palm into your face and grudgingly accept her outstretched one. 

So you’re on your feet now. You wrench your hand off hers like they’re two snarling trolls and you’re their auspistice. Then you sniff, pompously.

WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?? YOU DON’T HAVE TO BABY THE INJURY OUT OF ME FOR NO GODDAMN REASON - 

Wait, fuck. Humans do that, don’t they? 

Don’t you feel like an idiot. 

UGH. THIS IS SO *STUPID.*

WHERE EXACTLY WOULD GET ICE? WOULD YOU SOMEHOW FREEZE THE WATER VAPOUR HANGING IN THE AIR INTO SOLID SUBSTANCE THEN MAGICALLY WRAP IT IN SOME CONVENIENT CLOTH THAT YOU *ALSO* PRODUCED OUT OF THIN AIR?? 

OR, DON’T TELL ME YOU LIVE NEARBY OR SOMETHING.

|Akko flashes the troll a sour expression, forcing him to stand up before dragging him along the streets. She turns her head over her shoulder to face him, eyes glaring daggers.|

Jeez! Are you always this wonderful to be around!? Why are you so rude!?

I do live nearby, since you seem so curious! Even if you're a big jerk, I can't just leave you like this! I have morals!

|She nearly trips due to the fact she was only half paying head to her steps. Akko straightens herself quickly and continues to march forward.|

  Oh good, the girl that was pointed at obediently responded.  It wasn’t a response that oozed cooperation, but whatever, the sea princess only needed one question answered.  She was confident that she could figure anything else about this city on her own.  Hell, if she wasn’t in a hurry, she could probably get this answer by herself too.  She just didn’t want to waste her precious time playing the guessing game.

"hey but that means ya know a lot right" Fuschia lips twist into a grin. “you happen to know where these so called scientists be hangin out?"

[headstrongidealist-blog]

|Akko doesn't get bothered by the other's foreign look. This girl had a nice attitude to her, and the witch could appreciate that. She decides to work with the other female.|

No one does. They only talk to us when they want to do some sort of..experiment.

|Akko's nose scrunches at the word.|

[acommonhero]

  It worked.  Shouting at the broom really worked, and not that he had been afraid or anything (psshh), but he was alive and there was no need for apologies in the afterlife!  A-ya silently thanked… God, or Satan, or whoever in the world was in charge of witchly affairs.

He awkwardly let go of his embarrassingly tight hold around Akko.  Though he’d meant to apologize, no words came out for a while, still shocked.  Eventually, however…

"That’s incredible…  we’re really flying…!"

A new (+1) Akko fan was born at that moment.

"How— how does it all work…  Not to mention, the view is fantastic…"

Although A-ya was a dull boy who was normally so indifferent and expressionless towards most everything in life, he was thrilled inside at that moment.  Having finally found someone with supernatural powers was like a dream; it was true.  Witches are freaking awesome.  

[headstrongidealist-blog]

Of course we are! I'm a professional!

|Akko bluffed. She was secretly just as relieved as A-ya that the duo didn't end up crashing and getting injured. She sticks her nose up in the air, closing her eyes to relish her victory. She feels as if her flying as improved since arriving here.|

A witch never tells her secrets!

  The man chuckled as he heard her comment, lowering his eyes for a brief moment. “You are mistaken, milady.” Glancing back to her, he winked with the left eye. “I say that to all lovely girls only.”

It was easy to see that this was an especially shy girl and the pirate would not deny that it was amusing to see how flustered she could get. “Would you like my assistance to go anywhere?” He was not sure he had ever seen any kind of hospital or infirmary in Hive City, but she didn’t seem that hurt in any case.

“Oh, forgive my manners. What is your name, love?”

[headstrongidealist-blog]

|While he chuckles, Akko discards of the stained handkerchief by throwing it to a conveniently close garbage can. It lands in perfectly, and besides some faint bruises (her torso took the butt of the fall), her face looks normal. Akko blinks, her eyes shifting back to the pirate.

She finds herself tongue tied at his response. Lovely girls only..? Was..he flirting wit her? No, He had to be teasing her. Get a grip, Akko! She bites her lip, her own eyes lowering and avoiding the man's.|

I-I-I'm fine!

|She squeaks out. Akko looks up at the 'love" comment, trying her best to look irritated. She succeeds in looking very flustered.|

  Simply watching Akko as she soared through the skies wasn’t necessarily what he had in mind—in fact he felt as though his idea was much, much better. Which is why he had to share it with her, rather than complying.

“I’d just be watchin’ ya fly? Huh, I s’pose that’d be okay…I guess…”

“But, like…um, I was thinkin’ maybe I could come along for the ride? If yer broom can fit two people, I mean! …It wouldn’t be as scary if you had someone to keep ya company up there, right? —Plus I’d be really good…moral support? That’s what it’s called, right?”

[headstrongidealist-blog]

...You..You want to fly with me?

|Akko..is shocked. No one ever wants to fly with her. The girls in the academy don't even want to fly in the sky while she's flying, and yet..here was this boy wanting Akko to fly him around. That just proves that the others were wrong, of course! Akko already knew that, but now it was confirmed. She nods confidently.|

Of course you want to fly with me! Common! Let's go!

You almost don’t want to get up, because the look on her face is going to give you hell for weeks to come. 

Still, there is no point to kneeling on the sidewalk with your face stinging. You can feel the backs of your pointed ears heating up with shame and self-reproach, and you feel some of that heat pooling as something very similar to angry nausea in your stomach. 

Goddamnit.

God fucking damnit! 

You humongous pie of pureed and spiced shit! 

YEAH, YOU CAN JUST GO AND SHUT THE FUCK UP, LITTLE MISS PISSGUZZLER. SLAM YOUR FIST INTO YOUR MOUTH FOR ME AND KNOCK SOME TEETH OUT. I JUST TREATED YOU TO A FREE KNUCKLE SANDWICH!! 

You’re up on your knees now with a thickly-coiled knot of embarrassment cutting off some of your circulation. And when the girl leans down over you to help you up, you knock her hand away. 

You’re being unnecessarily rude and you fucking know it. 

But your face is still stinging and drops of blood are welling up just under your eye. You lift up your sleeve to wipe them off and try your damndest not to look. 

[headstrongidealist-blog]

Hey!

|Akko was trying to be nice, but this guy was still being such a..jerk! She puffs her cheeks, and it's very hard to not respond with the same vulgar, angry language as him. So she does.|

All you've done is been rude to me,and then I try to help you! Seriously!? What's your deal!? I'll give you a knuckle----

|That's when she notices the blood welling up under his eye. Akko begins to panic.|

|Before he can argue, Akko is trying to help him stand.|
