HISTORICAL AU and DANCE OF ROMANCE for harumichi *jazz hands*
*rubs tiny gay hands together*
I don’t care what point in history. reader’s choice. go ham. even better go full Xena. All I know is Haruka wears boots and a fucking waistcoat at some point? sure, Michiru’s got gloves to get all fancy, there’s at least two violins fuck if I know.
Intro: Town dance. Informal fun affair literally everyone is there getting drunk having a blast there might be more than one kid chasing around some sort of animal because if you’ve never gotten tipsy and tried to turn a corner chasing something smaller but faster than you buddy ya gotta. Center of town there’s a band. What kinda band? Fuck if I know I dunno what time you picked or what location. There’s just a band. But there’s a full huge dance going on. They some how end up partners, one of those numbers where you switch partners all the damn time and at the end maybe you end up with your original. But they make eye contact and there’s electricity there’s spice there’s crashing waves in ear drums there’s howling wind the whole nine yards only at the end they’re gone they can’t find the other but maybe it was just a moment of too much alcohol.
Cut a few weeks. Haruka’s been thinking about that mystery girl all the time. Dreams about her. messes up her work (what work? I dunno, messenger or something who knows not me). Someone mentions there’s a big party at the big ass house down the road (like five miles it still counts) does she wanna go crash with a group of them? Haruka’s like fuck sure why not this could be fun
News Flash Buddy: It’s Michiru’s Party. She’s been thinking about that lanky butch night and day. Can’t get her off her mind. Maybe a party will draw her out? Worth a try. Forget’s to invite the not-wealthy (you’re so rich Michiru you’re such a snob) but there’s not exactly security so a lot of the not-wealthy come meandering anyways because what’s more fun than crashing a rich party??? Maybe chasing a chicken while drunk but you gotta mix it up from time to time.
Haruka’s there, waistcoat, boots, actually tried to comb her hair. It looks terrible why did she try. It’s her and Seiya and whoever else in a corner trying not to completely dunk her head to fix it but that might be the only cure at this point oh crap. Michiru’s circling, on the look out. They somehow manage to avoid each other for literal hours.
Finally, one dance. One last one. Michiru’s tired she’s thinking about sitting out when she finally sees her. Across the room, flirting amiably with some completely plastered teenager but mostly holding her upright and making sure she’s getting water, generally being a gentleperson Haruka is. The girl sits down and Michiru takes like three shots and powerwalks across the room. Says NOTHING. Grabs Haruka’s hand and drags her to dance. Maybe this was a mistake maybe it was just the general everything last time but it’s worth checking out.
Haruka is p a n i c k i n g. Beautiful Mystery Girl just showed up out of fucking nowhere and they’re gunna dance oh god oh ogd she don’t actually know how to dance these stupid rich people dances.
Cue Pride and Prejudice dance sorta thing. They’re the only two people in the world. They say nothing the entire time but they don’t have to. What’s left to say after that.
