hydrangea for maji, carnation for aki, aster for kir, sage for dai? ♡
This one got long XD the other 3 are under the cut c:
Hydrangea– What’s something about you only s/i understands? What do only you understand about s/i?
Majima is settled on the middle seat of the overstuffed couch, arms stretched across the back. Kimi is flopped to his side, head resting on the arm, and legs across his lap.
He grins, about to answer, before sputtering indignantly as her bare toes press into his cheek, cutting off whatever he was going to say.
"Liar."
"Ya didn' let me say anything!"
She grins at his indignation, "Didn't have to, I know you. Whatever you were gonna say was gonna be complete bull so you could avoid anything resembling real vulnerability."
He glares flatly down at her, but her grin never wavers.
Her face softens as she begins to answer on his behalf, "we both share this sort of… We have what most people would consider odd feelings, about our respective appearances."
He winces, "Do ya have ta go there?"
"Shush. Anyway. Neither of us is exactly… happy. With our appearance. Or at least parts of it. We have things we do like, and are proud of, though that can fluctuate. But there is plenty we don't like as well. To put it gently. And yet, we're both very appearance driven people."
She shifts, turning to settle into his side, "Its kind of hard to explain? Or maybe that's just me? But we both like to put in a lot of effort, even knowing that because of how we feel, we'll probably end up let down. I don't think a lot of people quite get that... That we're not being vain, but trying to mask, to hide, the things we can't stand," she glances up at Majima, "Or put them out on display as a weird sort of act of rebellion."
She glances up at Majima, who is pointedly looking across the room.
Stifling a giggle, she shares in a conspiratorial whisper, “He doesn’t really do vulnerability.”
He gives an indignant “Oi!” and she cackles as he playfully shoves her into the floor.
Carnation– What’s something about s/i that fascinates you?
Akiyama gives a wry grin, "this girl's sleep patterns are absolutely insane. I'm not the best at keeping a regular schedule either, but she puts me to shame. I have no clue how she functions."
(A faint shout of "I don't" can be heard in the distance)
Aster– What would you consider a symbol of your relationship with s/i?
Kiryu blinks, his brow furrowing. His eyes quickly dart down to the simple band on his finger, then back up.
K snorts, leaning over the back of his chair, "Yeah the rings are a literal symbol. I think they want something more well… symbolic? Maybe." She shrugs.
He closes his eyes, that contemplative-concentration look he gets when he tries to remember something settling over his features.
K jolts slightly as Kiryu's eyes suddenly pop back open, and he gives a small self satisfied smile.
It takes him just a moment to dig into a pocket before presenting a battered old key chain, with a single key on it, "It's the key to the house we share," he clarifies, "but-"
"You still have that old thing!?" She cuts him off, then turns sheepish, "ah, sorry."
He snorts lightly, rolling his eyes, "Of course I still have it. You gave it to me. I still don't really get it."
"Oh," a soft flush on her face, "Well is a monkey, like you. Your Chinese zodiac I mean. Earth monkey specifically, so it was too perfect to pass up."
He eyes the dangling gift, a cutesy monkey face, with a little dark green stone dangling from its own loop of the same chain.
"Did you really never…" she trails off.
"No."
"You must have been so confused," the start of a giggle in her voice.
It was his turn to ignore an embarrassed blush, "You gave it to me," he repeated, "It didn't matter what it was supposed to mean."
Sage– If you and s/i could live together, forever as immortals, would you do it? Why or why not?
Daigo tilts his head, gaze distant and thoughtful, "I know this is something she thinks about. It's a nice thought, in theory. Spending eternity together. As a fantasy, But in reality? I'm not sure she likes the idea if it's grounded in reality. All of eternity, here? Even together, we," he sighs, his whole demeanor shifting to something melancholic, "We're both tired. But I look forward to the years we do have."
yakimi replied to your post:Yakimi started following you
she took the invitation inside looking around a moment still not us to the surroundings.“ well i’m sorry for getting slightly lost.” she stated it wasn’t as easy to remember locations when travailing as frequently and to such hard to reach locations
“Well it ain’t a small city either.” Rodney shut the door behind her, checking the hallway for pesky neighbors. He pointed at the sofa for her to sit and he took his spot back on the other side of the coffee table, littered with papers.
