✉  :    push my muse back down when they try to get out of bed  (  perhaps involving illness,  injury,  or sleep deprivation  )

as  eternally  promised,  morning comes.  

manjoume had nearly  forgotten  about that unspoken promise,  having spent what  felt  like an eternity in the dimension world,  despite it not being that much time at all,  in real-world terms.  with all they had endured,  mere hours felt like  years,  and had the same effect as them,  too,  as the boy almost feels like some sense of youth,  of  innocence  had been stolen from him.  

but they made it through everything,  right?  it’s  over,  and they can return to their normal lives,  lighthearted   &   happy as always,  wrapped up in their usual banter like nothing had happened.  perhaps they would get to that point eventually,  but manjoume is  nowhere near  ready to push it all aside,  to put on a happy face.  despite how learned he is at masking his emotions,  there’s something different about  this  time that makes it near impossible,  that has him  too shaken  to brush off the dust   &   debris of his trauma   &   move on.  

he hadn’t slept properly in days.  sometimes he had nightmares,  sometimes his brain refused to relax   &   forego its now-constant state of alertness to allow him to shut down.  dark circles have started to form beneath dreary eyes,  making his struggles to rest  obvious.  but judai was hurting the most,  evidently,  and jun almost felt  wrong  complaining about or voicing his issues,  because they must pale in comparison to what judai is going through.  he feels a responsibility to be  strong  for his friend,  because of all the times judai had been strong for him,  the very  least  manjoume could do was repay that.  or  try  to.  

but if he was going to spend all of his energy being there for judai,   who  was going to be there for him?  

the answer comes as soon as he tries to sit up,  a hand barely reaching out to draw the curtains open.  he’s stopped,  not very  aggressively  at all,  but the hand that plants on his chest is  firm,  somewhat authoritative.  blinking,  tired eyes meet her gaze,  and both warmth   &   confusion spread in him,  rendering him silent as her eyes alone answer just about  any  question he could ask.  

“  tenjoin-kun  . . .  ”  he whispers rather groggily,  the back of a fist rubbing at one of his  heavy  eyes.  sure,  he knows the answer.  but he asks,  anyway.   “   . . .   what are you doing here?  ”

while  all  students enjoy the  tinseled  decor of the academia’s main building,  it is largely up to them  individually   (  with some help from their dormitory heads,  of course  )  to embellish their own dorms.  since his  first  year,  manjoume always silently appreciated the way the older obelisk students would bedeck the already-lavish dorm alongside professor chronos   &  miss ayukawa  (  two people who  really  seem to love christmas.  )  now that it’s his third year,  however,  the responsibility has  largely  fallen on him to uphold the tradition,  albeit not without some  much needed  help from his classmate   &   close friend,  who seems to have a  far better  eye for this sort of thing.  

the aforementioned staff had already taken care of the majority of the dorm throughout the week,  with some input from third year students here   &   there,  and the dark-haired duelist found himself  obliged  to admit   —   to see the way the building had  gradually  transformed into something of a  christmas wonderland  had been nothing short of impressive.  the  ‘ main ’  tree perched in the center of the common room is always left for the students themselves,  however,  and to  no one’s  surprise,  manjoume   &   asuka were elected for the job.

after he drags over the last of the boxes of leftover ornaments   &  other decorations from years past,  along with some new ones they had picked out earlier in the week,  manjoume sprawls out tiredly on the floor,  eyes resting on the point where the  massive  tree nearly touches the high ceiling of the common room.  how the hell did they even get that through the door?  

asuka had offered to help him,  of course,  but he’d insisted he could do it on his own,  not wanting her to have to worry about it   —   christmas isn’t something taken lightly around here,  and the  heaviness  of the boxes stuffed to the  brim  with festive trimmings speaks toward that.  after a few moments,  he rolls over onto his side,  watching as she appears to be sorting through the boxes,  the shimmer of various blue   &   silver glitters  twinkling  in his gaze.  “  we’re gonna be here  all day,  ”  he foretells,  gaze shifting between the young woman before him   &   the bare tree,  “  do just  two people  really do this every year?  ”

it’s not a real complaint.  at least he gets to spend time with asuka,  which is always appreciated    —   he considers himself  lucky,  actually,  as if he were stuck here with anyone else in their dorm,  this would  surely  be a drag.  “  i’ve never  actually  decorated a tree before.  do we start at the top or the bottom?  we’re probably gonna need a  ladder,  or something.  ”

@angelicyber is under the mistletoe.

he   needed   to   catch   her   before   she   climbed   onto   that   boat   currently   docked   in   the   harbour   -   where   she’d   be   taken   home   with   her   brother   for   the   holidays.   sure.   he   had   intended   on   finding   her   early   that   morning.      but   the   break   had   just   started   !   it   would   be   cruel   and   unusual   to   set   an   alarm.   not   that   he   really   did   that.   in   reality   -   the   main   reason   he   hadn’t   woken   up   until   noon   was   because   syrus   had   already   left   for   the   break.   

      which   is   why   he   had   been   running   -   small   gift   held   tightly   in   his   arms   to   the   female   obelisk   dorms.   after   his   brief   er   -   run   in   with   chazz.   he   was   finally   there   -   rounding   the   corner   to   alexis   dorm   room.   face   flushed   from   exertion   and   prior   embarrassment.    

     “lex!”      he   shouted.   finally   coming   to   a   stop   in   front   of   his   friend   -   exiting   her   dorm   travel   bags   in   tow      -   uh.      he’s   almost   missed   her   !      after   a   moment   of   catching   his   breath   he   spoke.   smile   stretching   across   his   face.      “      come   on,   lex   -      you   weren’t   planning   on   leaving   without   saying   goodbye   were   ya?”         though.   he   knew   she   wouldn’t   -   lex   was   too   good   of   a   friend   to   do   that.   though   he   couldn’t   see   atticus   anywhere   -      how   was   he   going   to   him   in   the   short   amount   of   time   before   the   boat   left?      oh   man.      “   -   oh   right.   take   this.”      before   he   forgot   the   entire   reason   he’d   run   so   fast   he   placed   a   small   -   poorly   wrapped   gift   in   his   friends   hand.         looking   to   the   side   for   a   moment   -   wanting   to   avoid   the   enviable   cringe   at   his   wrapping.   it   was   the   thought   that   counted,   right?      and   syrus   hadn’t   been   there   to   help   him   so..      his   eyes   caught   the   small   green   decoration   taped   to   the   door   frame.   really?   again?         who   was   putting   these   all   up?   oh   well   -   it   was   in   spirit   of   things   right?   and   it   wasn’t   like   he   minded   all   that   much.   “   er   -   and   this.”      placing   a   hand   on   his   friends   shoulder   he   moved   forward   placing   a   soft   kiss   on   her   lips   before   pulling   away   with   a   smile.   “   have   a   good   christmas,   lex.”

to claim those words conjured a  flustering  image in his mind would be  quite  the  understatement;  and  curse  his porcelain complexion,  giving him away so easily.  a rosy hue blotches pale cheeks   &   an  awkward  (  but legitimately amused  )  laugh escapes pinkish tiers,  the young man shaking his head at his friend’s claim    —   not in any sense of  denial,  but out of a more  congenital  response.  

then comes an honest expression of  wonder,   “  where did  that  thought come from,  tenjouin-kun?  ”  the remnants of earlier laughs cling  mellowly  to the corners of his voice,  dark eyes lightly  crinkled  at their corners,  though his lips are a bit more  reluctant  to smile.  “  either way,  i’d encourage you to follow your dreams,   but,   i think you might be right about that one.  not to mention  your brother  would probably have a  meltdown  if he found out.  ”

the  jestful  nature of manjoume’s words are accentuated by another brief laugh,  which flows  seamlessly  into a humoured sigh.  “  you’d probably be good at it,  though,  honestly speaking.  not sure if that’s a  good thing  for everyone else.  ”

   BLESS ALEXIS for dealing with jaden for this long, because he seems to be deep in thought as he stares down at his homework assignments. naturally, he doesn’t seem to take in any of it for a long period of time - in fact, he’s been staring at the same spot on the page for thirty minutes now.

   “ man, it would be so much easier if we could just duel. that’s the best way to learn, right? ”

“Yeah  -  me  too.”      Syrus  shoulders  slumped.  It’s  been  a  real  hard  semester  for  them  -  for  all  of  them.  He  knew  what  his  issues  were  -  Zane  ..Jaden..  every  aspect  of  his  life.    He  swears  -  he’s  been  teetering  on  a  nervous  breakdown  for  about  two  months  now.    Now  with  the  added  pressure  of  being  in  Ra  -  he  paused  his  internal  monologue  for  a  moment.  Alexis  was  upset  -  this  wasn’t  about  him.  

He  felt  himself  blush  -  he  wasn’t  used  to  hugging  girls  ..but  he  was  always  here  to  support  his  friends.    He  wrapped  an  awkward  arms  around  his  friend  -  resting  his  head  on  her  arm.    “Uh  -  It’ll  be  okay,  Lex.  Whatever’s  bothering  you  ..we’ll  be  here  to  help  you  out,  like  always.”
