Soldier of Thunder and Courage

Gifts were a first for Rikki. She’s moved around a lot, even when she was still in Australia living with her dad. Nobody ever presented her (or her father) gifts whenever they moved to a new place. Rikki hadn’t really gotten gifts except on her birthday, but those were few. So naturally, Rikki couldn’t suppress her surprise. 

“A gift? For me?” Rikki repeated, raising her eyebrows. Her hand that rested on the edge of her door fell to her side as she shifted her feet. She opened her lips to say more, but no words came out. How does she respond to such a thing? Was this a Japanese custom? Does she give another gift? Does she invite her in? Rikki didn’t have the best manners, but she knew couldn’t just take the platter and close the door. 

“You–you shouldn’t have. But thanks, I guess. I’m still a bit new around here. You, uh, live in this building? One of my neighbors? Haven’t gotten a chance to really meet anyone, to be honest.”

—–  ♃   ❥                  She can tell that she’s caught the other girl off-guard, which wasn’t at all her intention, and a hand raises from the plate to brush through her hair, almost self-consciously. But it’s a feeling Lita shakes off soon enough, making sure to keep the smile on her lips. “They’re just cookies, nothing special.” After all, they didn’t take her long to make. 

A nod at the question, a gesture over her shoulder. “Just over there.” Is there a touch of sorry in the blonde’s voice? Lita follows it with a shrug. “People are busy, they tend to keep to their schedules.” Which she supposes isn’t all that great for meeting people. Which only makes her more glad she’d put in the effort to come and say hello. 

Hands hold out the place once more, gently gesturing for the other girl to take them. “I’m Lita,” she realises with the other girl’s questions, they hadn’t actually gotten to name, and that draws a small giggle from her.

“Candy candy…❤” Cue a happy sigh.

“You haven’t slept for days, have you?” “Are you eating properly? You don’t look it.” “Why do you keep stumbling over your words? Just how tired are you?” “You need to think about yourself every once in a while.” “I know your work is important, but you’re going to end up in hospital if you go on like this!” “You haven’t even touched your food. What’s going on?” “You look so… empty. I’m worried for you, please talk to me.” “Are you alright in there? You’re so quiet.” “How did you get these bruises? Please don’t lie to me.” “There’s something bothering you that you’re not telling me and I can see it slowly destroying you. What happened?” “You’re sleep deprived and you haven’t been eating. Why do you think you’re feeling dizzy?” “I can give you some pills to help you sleep. They aren’t healthy, but this is even less healthy.” “If you didn’t just blink I would’ve sworn you were dead, that’s how sickly you’re looking. Go to bed, please!” “Have you drank all of these bottles in one weekend?!” “I know you don’t want this, but it’s for your own good. Sign the papers so they can pick you up tomorrow and you can get clean.” “What the hell are you doing?! Did you do that to yourself?!” “When was the last time you left the house? Or opened the curtains for that matter.” “Here, just keep breathing. It’ll be okay. Better out than in…” “This can’t go on like this! You’re not eating, you’re not sleeping, you barely talk!” “I’m sorry. I went through your room and found this. Explain what the hell this is doing in your room!” “I thought you’d quit! How long have you been lying to me?” “I’m only trying to help and right now I think I have a much better idea of what you need than you do.” “Did you take anything? Why are you passing out? Hey! Stay with me!”

@jupiteriising·

The knock on the front door was certainly unexpected, to say the least. Rikki barely moved into her new apartment in this new country, and already someone is knocking on her door. Is this some kind of Japanese custom?

Part of Rikki wanted to just ignore the whole thing and hope the person would go away. But another part of Rikki was curious to know who could it be. She feared that someone had tracked her down already. She had to go look and find out. 

Bringing an eye to the peephole, Rikki peered into the hallway of the apartment complex. A girl, who couldn’t possibly be any older than Rikki herself, stood in front of the doorway. She seemed calm as she awaited for Rikki to answer and she carried a platter. 

Okay now if Rikki didn’t answer this door, she was going to feel bad about it. And Rikki hated feeling bad about things. 

Rikki swiftly unlocked the front door and swung it open. Should she smile? Definitely shouldn’t appear angry or upset. It wouldn’t help Rikki if she was on bad terms with her neighbors–or whatever this girl was if she wasn’t a neighbor. 

“Hi there,” Rikki greeted. She cleared her throat. “What can I do for you?”

[jupiteriising-blog]

—–  ♃   ❥                  She knows that it’s like to be alone. Or at least, live alone. Even if she didn’t, Lita’s natural hospitality would still have led her to the other girl’s door. She’s noticed the blonde a few times over the past week, never getting the time to say hello, or ask her name, however. Something she plans to fix. 

The cookies don’t take long to bake. It’s a recipe she’s used many times, and Lita barely looks at the list of ingredients, already knows the measurements. There’s a hum from her lips as she smells them rising in the oven, filling her apartment with their warm sugary scent. It’s when they’re sufficiently cooled that she piles them onto a plate, making her way across the hall, knocking with one hand. 

There’s a longer pause than she expects, but eventually the door swings open, and Lita flashes a smile, head tilting and sending her ponytail swinging. “Hello, I brought a gift, to say welcome.”

[☾]—ᶫᶦᵗᵗᶫᵉ ʳᵃᵇᵇᶦᵗ  Usagi smile brightened as the other girl agreed to dance  with her, so this time she lead the girl back to where the  music was, happy that she got to spend a day with one  of her best friends.

               "thank you for saying yes Lita-chan.“

[jupiteriising-blog]

—–  ♃   ❥                 “How could I say no?’ She giggles, letting herself be pulled along, no resistance as she grins down at the blonde. Dancing may not be her forte, but Lita will put that aside for her friend.

Cue a very loud and kind of dramatic sigh. “I am not surprised. At all.”

[jupiteriising-blog]

—–  ♃   ❥                 “I’m not sure it’s an actual holiday though..”  Surely not. 

[auremdea-deactivated20160814]

“Mmm …” Minako gave off a little mumble, blue eyes closing as her arms crossed over her chest. She knew that people weren’t comfortable when it came to relationships, she had been one of them when she was a little younger, back in middle school && what not but they were being a little too quiet. It would be considered suspicious. “I really hope so, Mako-chan. I do want to know about all the gossip in school.” 

[jupiteriising-blog]

—–  ♃   ❥                  “Perhaps they’re not ready to be the center of gossip. Maybe they’re still figuring out their feelings. Give it time; I’m sure if there’s something to know, you will know it first.” She has no doubt about that. The blonde always has tidbits to share with the group, though Lita has really no idea how she comes to have such information.

                   her head canted marginally toward her shoulder, a soft hum emanating from between her lips in thought. there was a bit of SKEPTICISM visible in her expression & she studied the brunette for a brief moment, eventually drawing a complete b l a n k. ❝ — then what is it ?? ❞ there was something present in her friend’s eyes —— something that resembled insecurity.& it caused a slight frown to pull at the corners of her lips.

[jupiteriising-blog]

—–  ♃   ❥                    “A ----a silly crush.” Feelings she probably shouldn’t have. Honestly, Lita doesn’t think she should have even admitted to them, lest the other girl ask more questions. So with a shake of her head and a smile, she dismisses the conversation. “I’m sure they’ll go away.” At least, she hopes so. She’s trying to ignore Rei’s canted head and decisive look, but it’s hard.

“National Kissing Day? I’ve never heard of it.” And that makes her feel silly, because of course the other girl has. There’s a small bite of her lip before Lita is leaning in, attempting to make up for her mistake of not knowing.

“—Well, I wouldn’t want to not participate in a national holiday…” There’s a small blush to her cheeks, before she leans down to press her lips to that of the shorter girl. Lita’s hand knit behind her back, even as she swings a little to keep her balance.
