I'd like to request that Yuzu become the boss/owner of both charde jewelers and happy hearts home :meltie:

Sure thing! That’ll be 40,000G~

☄ – A long hug

✧ Vishnal’s still trying to shake off the effects of a busy week when he finds Yuzuki, waiting for a small break amidst the chaos. Coffee-- or was it tea? Juice? Just sweets? He vaguely remembers agreeing to come out for something, and he’s glad he’s made it on time, but for the life of him, he can’t remember what’s going on specifically.

✧ No, Vishnal is tired. It’s been what seems like forever since he’s been this exhausted-- perhaps because he found himself stumbling on some insomnia earlier this week. He tries to remember if he’s wearing makeup over the bags under his eyes, and fails.

✧ “Hello,” he murmurs, leaning in for some sort of hug for greeting, but really, he ends up staying there far longer than he intended, chin on Yuzuki’s shoulder, just... taking a breather.

✧ “‘M sorry... jus’ needed a hug.”

♫ – A hug while dancing

✧ They have yet to play their duet, but that doesn’t matter too much to Vishnal. Yuzuki’s company is lovely, music or not, and it’s not like they have to totally avoid music in the times that they do spend time together! Like right now, with faint music playing in the background as Vishnal approaches for another dance.

✧ Their motions for the “masquerade” had been anxiety-ridden and exhausting, at least in Vishnal’s experience. Being a teenager had ruined his entire psyche for the night, but now that he’s had the chance to recover and regain his lighter mind, he wants to try it once more. To make it up to himself and also Yuzuki, who (if he recalls correctly) had his own problems that night that made it harder to enjoy than usual.

✧ “May I?” he asks, and another gentle, but much more... free dance follows. Filled with slight conversation and humming along to the song before it inevitably ends. Normally, he would blush for being so forward, but they’ve done this before right? It’s alright.

✧ Hopefully.

✧   He doesn’t think Yuzuki is uncomfortable, but... “Pardon me if I was pushy,” he says, just to make himself feel better. I thought I wasn’t supposed to be so anxious anymore.

✧ And, well, anxiety can have physical side-effects, though this is... less conventional. He teeters, having leaned too far with the music, and lets out a little cry of surprise as he tries to catch himself. Cheeks flaming, he breathes a sigh of relief when he realizes he didn’t just trip and fall on even ground, and looks back-- up? -- at Yuzuki. “Sorry!”

✧ I thought I was taller than this. But, apparently in his fall, he had reached out to the nearest entity capable of steadying him, which was Yuzuki. So Vishnal is, uh, clinging to him, back awkwardly bent like the baby giraffe he apparently is.

✧ Okay, I can say this is a hug, right? He rights himself, straightening his shirt. “Heh.”

Familiar Faces || Felicity & Yuzuki

@moonlitxserenity;

[ ♥ ] — With as much as she traveled, Felicity encountered many different types of people on a daily basis. Mostly through work, and it wasn’t as if she kept too deeply in touch with most of them. Connections were hard to maintain when you were always moving from one place to the next, and despite her friendly demeanor, she made it a habit to keep herself distant from others due to her work as a critic. Couldn’t have too many people knowing who she was.

But there were a few people who were aware of who she was and what she did, at least to her knowledge, and she was currently staring one such person right in the eyes. 

Once, back when she was just starting out, her editor took her along to a party housing some of the most famous socialites in the world, to give Felicity a little more brand building and exposure (in fact, said exposure was part of how she got her job at Mr. De Sainte-Coquille’s cafe). And this man... Yuzuki, had been one of the people she met there. Who would have thought she’d have nearly bumped into an old party friend here, in the streets of her hometown?

“Oh---” Felicity stops, adjusting the bag of groceries in her arms as she steps to the side to give the other pedestrians room to walk. If there was one thing about Leuda that hadn’t changed in the years she was gone, it was how busy the streets were. “Yuzuki? Is that you? It’s me, Felicity! It’s been so long, how are you?”

tea with a friend [Yuzuki & Wayne]

@moonlitxserenity

It had been, what, over a decade since he had seen Yuzuki? However long it was, Wayne was still excited to be seeing him. He had bought a round-way ticket to Leuda, and he kept checking the address he had to make sure he would be going in the right direction. As soon as he hit shore, he headed right for his old schoolmate’s house.

Once he arrived, he knocked on the door, grinning from ear to ear. Gods, it was going to be so nice to see him again. He was hoping Yuzuki would be up for going out for some tea at a cat cafe he had heard about earlier, but, if not, he would be fine just being able to visit with him.

His excitement only increased when someone finally answered the door.

Tough Customer || Raven & Yuzuki

@moonlitxserenity​

Having just finished gathering some more common jewels to make them useful, Raven took a sigh of relief. Although mining was often a risky task, it was a reliable way to make money. Or at least it was for her, who didn’t really have much other talents... and it was always considerably less risky than stealing. However, it did require plenty of stamina and physical strength, and her slightly fussed hair, dirt on her clothes, and sheen of sweat reflected it. As she entered the Charde Jewelers, she kept her gaze low until she was able to hoist the bag onto the counter with a grunt. Despite herself, she realized the employee had a certain aura of elegance, or sereneness, whatever it could be called -- which almost made her feel... rude. There was definitely a stark contrast between him and herself.

“Are you a jeweller?” Short and to the point, as usual.

little steps

✧ For some reason, Vishnal doesn’t think he got enough for Yuzuki for this festival. Four flowers don’t really seem like a proper show of appreciation for all he did for Vishnal at the music festival, with the support and encouragement to actually get up on stage and sing...

✧ Oh, well. He’ll have to make it up to him in increments, which isn’t so bad. He’ll get to see him more!

✧ When he finds Yuzuki, he hands him three red alstroemerias (friendship and devotion) and one blue lisianthus (appreciation and a life-long bond) with a smile (slightly winded, because he’s been running flowers around all day.

✧ “Thank you for being my friend, and a wonderful person in general! I-- Well, I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to really thank you for this, but...” Honestly, will he ever think he’s able to thank anyone? “Thank you for the music festival. I wouldn’t have gone up on that stage if you hadn’t talked me up to it first.”

✧ ... “I’ll see you sometime soon. For that duet, yeah?”
