For Valentine's this year, Sparkle decided to one-up the orange rose thing that he was giving everyone else. With an orange rose (because really, it was pretty awesome they came in orange, okay?) and a stuffed animal.
The note that came with it?
Some people are better than StuCo flowers, dammit. Thanks for being the best damn karaoke-rival and rescue-hug-giver on the whole damn island. Happy Valentine's, girl. You go with your kickass self this year. - Sparkle
"Wait, why are you inviting me to a gunfight? Did you hear about how I pulled that bullet out? Look, I only did that once and I was in a panic the whole time!"
...
"And what does a succubus have to do with anything?"
Kathy had spent today going through some of her belongings that Ringo had packed away from her dorm. Not surprisingly, a lot of the stuff she'd found had involved Minako: pictures taken, notes passed, little toys and souvenirs. The detritus of friendship, one could say.
Not that Kathy had been a great friend to her in the end. And that had happened before she'd turned out to be not a great friend to everybody.
She'd gone back and forth about calling Minako for an hour before finally pressing the icon under her contacts list. And nearly hung up before it could start to ring, but forced herself to keep going, even as her breathing kicked into overdrive.
By the time Minako answered, she might end up hyperventilating. But at least she was still there.
Minako... wasn't exactly paying attention when her phone rang, and just picked it up without looking at the number. "Spaaaaaaarkle," she whined, because, well, who else was going to be calling this number? "Is your portal here yet? I'm at the Perk if you want to come join me."
Hearing Minako's voice sent all the words Kathy had been practicing right out of her head. She hadn't even registered that Minako was on the island yet. "...Hi," she said, voice cracking.

Wrong number unless I got a lot blonder or bluer since last time I checked. Too bad, fighting my double would be sorta hot.
