(semi?) hiatus warning
Over the next months, I have a lot to do. I have summer school from the 29th of June to the 24th of July, and then from the 24th of July to the 6th of August, I’m going on a family vacation. School for me starts up again on the 10th of August. At some point from now to the 24th of July, I have to finish my AP English work and AP Stats work, as well as finish my driver’s ed (which I’m taking online.)
Needless to say, I will be very, very busy, and unlike last time I don’t want a sudden disappearance w/ no explanation. Rather, I plan on coming back after this business dies down, and I plan on popping in every once in a while to see how everyone’s doing.
Concerning my rp blogs, I doubt I’ll have time to respond to most (if any) of my threads or asks, so I apologize but those will have to wait for some later time!
I have a personal blog, which I probably will resort to in my free time instead. My skype ID is crayolabrand, and mutuals are more than welcome to add me as a contact. I’ll try to stop by there, as well.
So, yeah! That’s the plan the rest of this summer. Love you guys, sorry for the sudden inactivity, but this stuff’s gotta get done!
He (barely) caught the carton, a little unsure of why he gave it to him in the first place.
“Um… Thank you.”
Silence. That’s all Kyoma offered to Asuhi; silence. Nothing but the sound of their humanity ( breathing, fidgeting, etc. ) and of milk being slurped up. Finally, the artist spoke.
“ ... You’re welcome. Ah, about earlier, on the first day of school -- forget about it, alright ? ”
Ninomiya can’t help the pang of disappointment in his chest, along with anger spiking up his spine and a burning feeling flowering in his chest, because maybe if Ninomiya had been a little more conscious of Kyoma’s feeling, maybe if perceptive to how people had been treating him and his reactions… Maybe they would still be close.
( but hes an idiot who doesnt know how to comfort people properly he probably wouldve said something stupid and made it worse.)
Yes, Ninomiya was an idiot. He’d probably run out of words to say in the middle of the sentence too; but maybe he could bridge the gap between them - their relationship would never be the same, obviously, but it’s worth a shot. “Ah… Would you be mad if I say I do want something from you? I want to know if you’re okay. Are you eating okay? You look tired, are you sleeping well? Have you made any new friends?”
They still might not be friends after this - Kyoma would probably kick him out, too ( literally ) but still, it’s worth a shot.
“ I -- what ? ”
Kyoma was surprised by the words coming out of the other’s mouth. While he didn’t show it, the artist was feeling an array of emotions himself. Worry, suspicion, guilt. He thinks about that expression Shigure made, when he told him and accused him of not caring. That hopelessness he must have felt when he found out that Kyoma left that school for good. ( But it always goes back to Kuzuryu himself -- his fragility, his naivety. )
So, one could imagine how he felt when he heard Shigure speak up. At first, he misunderstood, and was ready with sharp words to fight back, but then the Ninomiya started asking questions. About his health, about his life. Because he was worried for him.
Why ?
“ ... Do you really care about that, though ? Aren’t you just lying to me ... ------- Hero Time ? ”
“Yes… you’re Kururyuu-san right?”
“ That’s right. You look like you could use this. ” He throws a small carton of milk at Asuhi. ( not really caring if he caught it or not. )
“ Hey, you. Your name’s Imizu, isn’t it? ”
The boy draws back, a little staggered at Kyoma’s harsh tone, albeit keeping a ( hopefully friendly ) smile on his face. “Ah, scary, scary! What’s wrong with trying to keep contact with an old friend.”
Right. They weren’t the same as they were back then ; it was so natural for Kyoma to snap at people, hide himself in his own isolation because he grew apart from everyone. ( How could you forget ? )
“ I never said there was anything wrong. We haven’t talked in a while; I just assumed you wanted somethin’ from me. “

*Note: another way to test for personality traits in the modern psychology paradigm is to make use of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI). It is a 567 question long exam. Unfortunately I can currently find no complete and free online versions of the test. If anyone knows of one, please contact me [here] so I can add it to the meme. Thanks!
do you UNDERSTAND that we will never be the same AGAIN?
Here’s what the uniforms of Mikagura Academy’s sister school look like!
(Mikagura’s sister school is the one that Shigure and Kyoma initially attended before transferring to Mikagura during their first year. Unlike Mikagura Academy which only accepts cultural clubs, the sister school only accepts sports clubs)
GUYS. GUYS. GUYS. GUYS.
Abort, abort: the stone has been dropped on her head! It would’ve been much smarter to keep her mouth shut, but she didn’t, and now she made him angry. The girl had clicked on the wrong decision bubble, and now she was paying for it. Ichinomiya let out a sharp whine once her senior had grabbed a hold of her cheek. “Sowwy, sowwy!" She slurs, and as she drags out the ‘es’ sounds and squeezes her eyes shut, adds: “Used to feel, I said!”
It’s times like these where Ichinomiya wishes she didn’t any baby fat on her cheeks; not only would the pinch not hurt as much (not that it did hurt a lot) but he’d have nothing to grab… Unless he decided to pinch her nose. In that case she can’t wish away her nose, that’s her cutest feature, after all! Oh, and she needs it to breathe.
A small harrumph escaped Kyoma, as he wiggled around the cheek of his underclassmate. Another squeeze, and he would be satisfied. Her incoherent apologies and whimpers of forgiveness were duly noted, as Kuzuryu's face remained the same.
" That's what I thought you said. I don't care if you hated milk since you were two, I don't wanna hear it, rookie. Watch what you say 'round here, got it ? Good. "
He let go of the girl's face, and brought his hands back to his sides. She really was a good person, he thinks. Got a good head on her shoulders. An attitude like that will really get taken advantage of, around here; or so he thinks.
trashy-innocence dropped by the club room!
—— [ ♣ ] "Ah, Kuzuryuu-san, I just couldn’t help but wonder…" Was he even in his right mind to ask a senior a question like this? "How often do ya take a bath? I mean, I always see you with blotches of paint whenever we meet and… couldn’t help but wonder."
A dead stare is given to the shorter male ; eyes shining like a pyre in distaste and displeasure. The other was neutral in Kyoma's eyes, but this blatant ( perhaps he had good intentions, but Kyoma doubted that somehow. ) comment was worsening Akama's image, to say the least.
" What kinda stupid question is that ? I shower every other day. Didn't realize how nosy ya were, though. Kinda annoying, if you ask me. "
"Oh, yeah. Sorry about that." The girl says, immediately quieting down - not much, but her voice was definitely softer. She runs a hand through her hair- almost mimicking the artist, before laying it palm-down and using it as a brace. She brought her other hand to her mouth and coughed once before answering his question, “To be honest, to me and my six year old brain, it tasted-" She paused for a second wondering if he’d hate her for her response, “… Icky. Right out of the carton was the worst, it was all foam-y and - ” Ichinomiya scrunched up her nose, cringing.
She did it, she had moved the great stone wall - carrying over her shoulders to several towns over. Well, not really; but she did achieve her goal of getting Enoyan-senpai’s attention back, so all was good.
" ... Just don't do it again. "
He advises, although ( as always ) he spoke too soon. Shortly after saying that, Eruna had already retaliated with her own wittiness, to a point here Kyoma almost wanted to crack a smile. But he easily kept his straight face on, and even procured forth a scowl that laced his features with complete and utter irritability. Oh, you've done it now.
No one insults milk like that. The ' yankee ' reached out, and pinched the girl's right cheek with his hand ; hard. Of course, it wasn't so painful that it would make her cry ( because if he did that he'd never forgive himself. ) but it was painful enough that it should teach her a lesson.
" Care t' repeat that, rookie ? "
trashy-innocence has entered the vicinity!
"I used to hate milk when I was younger." Ichinomiya states, cocking her head to the left. “But then I got older and started to like it." To be honest,she had no idea where she was going with this - but it seemed as if she had gotten Enoyan-sensei very… irritated, and the mind-numbingly awkward silence that ensued was killing her.
And by irritated, she means that Kyoma started getting fed up with her trying(and failing) to tease him and was no longer looking or speaking to her. He probably tuned her out, as well. But nonetheless, she continued to yammer on dramatically about her childhood hatred of milk, to her ‘okay-ish-ness’ of the drink today; waving her arms wildly to emphasis certain things.
It wasn't as if he was openly ignoring the girl, it was just that he became uninterested in whatever she was saying. Before the talk of milk came up, she had babbled on and on about things he didn't care about. It wasn't her fault -- it was his for not broadening his interests, nor paying attention. Although, it was difficult enough already to carry a conversation with someone in the first place, let alone someone he actually cared about, even if slightly. Kyoma was an unsociable person to begin with, but something like this was overwhelmingly nostalgic of those times, and by instinct he had retreated into silence. But no longer.
" ... That's stupid. How can ya hate milk ? Milk is delicious. But, you don't hafta be so loud. I'm right here, Eruna. "
Finally deciding to speak up, the artist had heaved a heavy sigh, and rubbed at the back of his head to exaggerate the situation more. His ears were starting to hurt, but he supposed he could tolerate Eruna's antics for a bit longer, before barking at her to get out.
