let's take this slowly. (indie Ryuko Matoi RP blog from Kill la Kill. Please read the about page.)

{ ♔ } — "I am sure she is fine."

It was understandable that she would never actually call their mother any term of endearment. Why she still had awkward tendencies was beyond the elder girl but it was out of her control. All she could do was really just attempt small talk like they had before until it felt like Satsuki was talking to herself really.

"How are you though?"

[nemurusukeban]

"Sure...that she's fine?"

What's this? Didn't Satsuki know how their mother was? Ryuko's case was justified; she wasn't wanted in the Kiryuin household ever since she was a child. She didn't even know whether Satsuki knew that they were sisters, or whether her mother would even acknowledge her if they ever met in the middle of the street or something.

To her elder sister's second question, Ryuko gave a nonchalant shrug.

"Ah, same old, same old. Ya wouldn't want to know about me, Kiryuin. I'm just fine."

[heftige-konigin-blog]

{ ♔ } — One eyebrow raised up by the reaction of her coughing. The cup was raised to her lips again, tipping a bit as she drank again. Smooth.

Her company was something she wasn’t use to, but she wasn’t against it either. Conversing with her was rather difficult given how much they just chose not to see each other in the first place. Hopefully she would enjoy the small gesture as some sort of peace offering. "You don’t have to drink it if you dislike it, Ryuko."

[nemurusukeban]

"I'm fine, fine...." Urgh. Almost scalded her tongue, it did.

She did look at Satsuki in surprise upon being called by her first name, obviously not used to it. All this while, she's been called 'Matoi,' nothing more, maybe less. Having tea with Satsuki like this was awkward, and too good to be true.

"...Ah....How's Mrs. Kiryuin? I trust she's well...?"

[heftige-konigin-blog]

{ ♔ } — "Perhaps you should consider it."

The cup that hanging before her lips tilted up again, taking another sip of the herbal drink. The bitter taste seemed to be different? Almost fruitier. Soroi must have changed it since her commentary about it…oh well. She placed the cup down gently, eyeing Ryuko. “There is a cup sitting there for you…try it.”

[nemurusukeban]

Might as well sit down. Can't refuse an invitation to a tea party, she shrugged.

It was awkward. Having tea with Satsuki was awkward. They had avoided each other for as long as Ryuko could remember, and as much as Ryuko loved her elder sister, there was that slight disdain at the fact that Ryuko was the less favored child.

She took the cup and sipped, then outright coughed. 

Elegance at its finest.

{ ♔ } — "…Hmn."

"Are we going to have tea since you’re here?"

[nemurusukeban]

"Woman, I don't even drink tea."

  "….Uh…”

He wasn’t going to agree with her— That would be dumb. So instead Tsumugu settled on turning his head away and biting the side of his cheek. Because pouting always helped the situation.

"I guess I should be practising my… housewife skills before I get married huh?”

[nemurusukeban]

"Housewife skills? Ya have a girlfriend already?"

Was she outdated? Man, she really should pay attention to the world around her. Maybe Tsumugu was pulling her leg, maybe he wasn't. It was quite hard to tell.

"Woah, um......." Surprise, surprise.

If it isn't the girl who led the world's best monkey band.

She really didn't get the point of the school having a band that was styled pre-Renaissance instead of straight-up modern; it wasn't like there were many competitions. Then again, Nonon Jakuzure is a girl who loved her trade, but she can be so terribly annoying about it.

If anything else, Ryuko would prefer Nui over her.

"....Well, what are ya doing here, Jakuzure?"

            ▒ ❣ ▒ —- ❝Geez, that’s pretty lame, Ryuuko-chan.❞

            Oh, she never found it very satisfactory when someone learned things only halfway. 

            ❝I'm gonna teach you how to do it right~ Even if it takes hours and hours plus lots and lots of bandages~!❞

[nemurusukeban]

That was unexpected. Nui, teaching her how to sew?

...Maybe that wasn't so bad after all.

"Wanna try? I'm a pretty slow learner," Ryuko laughed nervously.

[aggravatedbararose]

  "…we had flour?"

They were pretty much the picture of a battered family, but he refused to let anything break them apart. He’d do whatever it took to keep things together. He wasn’t letting her fall through the cracks of a careless system. He wasn’t going to let her grow up like he had.

[nemurusukeban]

"Yep. Man, you don't get in the kitchen often, huh?"

Or maybe he overlooked the fact that they even had any basic cooking ingredients, she reasoned. Just to be able to try and help him also helped herself, and the road to recovery was coming really soon.

ooc: so THIS is what people were talking about when they say that making visual novels take time and dedication

ahahahahahahaha why did i take this up now i have to finish it

[joyeusxe-archive-blog]

           ▒ ❥ ▒ —- And here comes the seamstress, just on time. She wasn’t watching from behind a discreet tree at all, no, no.

         ❝Ehhhhh, Ryuuko-chan, you can sew~?❞

[nemurusukeban]

"A little here and there," Ryuko smiled, completely used to the seamstress's grandiose and unexpected arrivals. "I don't make clothes like you do, though. I just sew holes up and shit."

[nemurusukeban]

"....At least the needles that Nui gave me can be of use to the sewing kit."

  ”.. I guess I should go buy chocolate, then..”

[nemurusukeban]

"What--now?"
