Night 50: M51-M60 Hallway

Jul 11, 2010 13:57

[M60]Honey's words from that afternoon still bothered Sai as he sat on the edge of his bed when the doors opened. Unlike the previous night, he'd changed back into his black ninja attire now, that damned kunai held loosely in one hand. He had a job to do, and though there was the danger of Okita attacking them again tonight, he couldn't just ( Read more... )

Honey was at least somewhat relieved when Sai got dressed for the evening and said his goodbyes. While it was obvious he wasn't back to his old self just yet, not completely, at least he seemed to be doing a little bit better. He offered his roommate a soft smile as he gathered up his own things, tucking away the kunai with the bunny-shaped handles that Leon had made for him and waiting near the door with Usa-chan held carefully in his arms.

Takashi should be along shortly. He held little hope for the rest of the cake club, but it was good that his cousin had taken initiative with the bulletin today. After last night it was difficult to feel up to it. Maybe they would have some members show up after all.

By no stretch of the imagination had the walk been long, yet Natalia still felt a surge of relief as she inspected the door. M60. Where the Cake Club had been told to meet, and Natalia, unable to quash her curiosity about there being a club that truly baked in this place, had signed up for the meeting. If they did bake, Natalia wondered whether she could ever call herself a proper member, and not only because no amount of practice to date had improved her culinary skills (or lack thereof). It simply seemed unwise to spend the night in a way less productive to the larger picture.

Yet, she had suspected that there was something she had failed to understand, and that question too had moved her. Natalia took note of her possessions, reaffirming each item, then patted at her hair, wishing again for one of her headbands.

As presentable as this place would ever allow her to be, she supposed. Lifting her chin and adopting a polite smile, Natalia rapped her knuckles against the door.

Upon rounding the corner, Amaterasu was faced with the sight of another patient standing in the hallway. It was a young woman with short hair and a sweet smile. The goddess quickly realized she had seen her during the journey from the F-A Block Hallway. Now, she stood before the door to Room M60, which meant she was likely another member of the Cake Club.

Ammy mustered up the best smile she could make (although her body was still calming down from the scare Takashi had given her) and approached.

"H . . . hello! Here for . . . c-cl . . . club?"

Re: M60 mukuchi July 20 2010, 02:29:12 UTC

Ah, so someone else had made it before them. When Mori and Amaterasu came around the corner and began walking down the hall, Mori caught sight of the young blond standing at Mitsukuni's door. This had to be Natalia, the young lady who had given off a very princess-like air on the board. It wasn't like Mori was unaccustomed to dealing with such people, but that did make him worry about how well she was going to survive here. It was good that she'd found their club then - he and Mitsukuni could teach self-defense as much as they could bake a cake ( ... )

Re: M60 host_club_honey July 20 2010, 13:51:44 UTC

Honey was quick to answer the door and it was a genuine surprise when he was greeted by his cousin, along with two more unfamiliar faces. He blinked a few times, looking up at them before a smile fell into place. Had they gotten new members? After last night, he'd spent precious little time at the bulletin board. But sure enough, here was a group, ready to go.

"Hi!" he chirped, closing the door behind him as he stepped out into the hall. His eyes met the older boy's for a second as he got over the initial surprise.

"I'm Honey! It's nice to meet you both! Are you Takashi's friends? Are you going to make cake with us?" he persisted, excitement growing slightly with each word as he hugged his pink rabbit toy to his chest.

Re: M60 nobleobliged July 21 2010, 08:24:07 UTC

It seemed as though Natalia had come at the right time, as she had hardly stood at the door for half a minute when two more turned the corner, apparently intent upon her same destination. She turned partly toward the pretty woman and her young companion, returning the bow he gave. Was he Mori? If so, who waited inside, if anyone?

"The cake club, yes? I am, I-"

Before she could finish, the door opened. With a little surprise, Natalia found herself looking down, at a truly sweet looking boy. And he did look like a boy, younger even than Anise. Given Anise's ability, and the way in which the world could force a maturity in children, Natalia should have, perhaps, felt less indignant on his behalf. How dare that Landel put him here--so sweet, he went by HoneyAs if Tear confronted with a crowd of baby cheagles, Natalia blushed, her eyes bright ( ... )

Re: M60 divinebrushwork July 23 2010, 17:35:48 UTC

Amaterasu looked troubled as Natalia and Mori exchanged bows. She had never bowed to anyone before. Was she being rude by not doing it? Or did she not need to because of her celestial status?

She was not given much time to think on it, however, as the door to M60 swung open and a small boy stepped out. The goddess was taken aback at his size and facial features; he was so . . . so . . . adorable. How many other children were kept in this institution?

Natalia introduced herself and Ammy watched her carefully, listening to her words with great thought. Perhaps she should copy their formalities, just to be polite.
Her attempt at a bow was awkward and felt as though it was far too deep. Still, she managed to make her usual warm smile.

"Amaterasu."

Re: M60 mukuchi July 24 2010, 04:41:46 UTC

When the door opened and he saw the smile light up his cousin's face with excitement over his new friends, Mori felt the weight in his heart lighten as well. If he could keep bringing people to the club like this, even if they didn't stick around, maybe it would help Mitsukuni feel a little better. If he could keep Mitsukuni's spirits high until he figured out a way to escape from this place, then they'd have a better chance ( ... )

Re: M60 host_club_honey July 24 2010, 17:39:05 UTC

Natalia was really adorable too! It only served to make his smile a little wider, more honest, as she blushed. How lucky to get to spend the dark and scary night with two pretty girls ( ... )

Re: M60 nobleobliged July 25 2010, 02:49:26 UTC

[ooc: Yosh! Natalia has her radio, so I'll just... shove everything in here, shall I? :| of course all of yours speak Japanese... We'll just pretend something, since the intercom technically happened at midnight but ... /messses with w/ time... dslfkmdsfdslfs :D? ]

Honey said an awful lot all of once that Natalia felt she should address; it became a little harder to focus on and organize each item, because he was so cute. He even introduced his rabbit! How old was he? She meant to thank him for calling her name pretty, to note that long names were quite common in her world, to express surprise that he had correctly guessed her position -- but all of that paled upon receiving a nickname.

Natalia had never had a nickname before, and receiving one kept the color strong on her cheeks.

"T-that's all right," she managed, though unsure what the difference between Lia-chan and Lia-hime was, "You may! No one's ever given me a nickname." Before she could test the sound of it on her own tongue, he held out the rabbit and she made to pat its ( ... )

Re: M60 divinebrushwork July 26 2010, 02:42:10 UTC

Often times, Amaterasu had difficulties listening to talkative people. She could have easily dozed off or spaced out during Honey's ramblings, but she didn't. There was something about the human child that captivated her and she listened with interest.
Like Takashi, he was in awe at the mention of her name. But that was not what had caught her attention.

Ammy.He called her by her nickname. The same nickname that Issun had given her back in Nippon ( ... )

Re: M60 mukuchi July 27 2010, 02:31:40 UTC

Mitsukuni seemed to be growing more and more excited as time passed and introductions were made, causing Mori to swell a little with pride. He'd managed to bring people in! Without talking even. Considering he was thought of as pretty scary without Mitsukuni around to be his "lovely item" as the twins liked to call him, this was a pretty big accomplishment. Mori never attracted the talkative ones unless it was with Mitsukuni and then it was more Mitsukuni bringing them to the club. He felt a little proud that he was able to do something on his own, something that helped Mitsukuni, too, and ( ... )

Re: M60 host_club_honey July 27 2010, 04:51:23 UTC

Natalia seemed happy to get the nickname and Amaterasu was really sweet too, but then... everything went funny. Natalia wasn't making sense anymore and Ammy's Japanese sounded so old! It couldn't just be him though, because Takashi noticed too! It wasn't just a matter of hearing them right, it was something else. Amaterasu even started... growling? Was that an effect of whatever was going on, or was she really doing that? He knew they were all from different worlds, but they'd never had a problem communicating, at least not until now ( ... )

M60 nobleobliged July 27 2010, 08:12:50 UTC

As if a spring-loaded, now broken doll, Natalia shook her head again. Amaterasu clearly asked her a question; her body language, head tilting, eyes blinking, indicated it. It sounded like one word, only one that Natalia had never heard before. Natalia noticed that as she had spoken, Mori's expression had little changed, but he did seem to be staring at her as he finished putting away one of the recipe cards. When he spoke, Natalia again understood that he asked something, but what?

When Honey joined in, Natalia recognized that he and Mori spoke the same language, and it did sound similar to Amaterasu's. Even noting that much made her head ache. The sounds, syllables and inflections and tones, nothing at all like words, made absolutely no sense to her. She pressed her hand to her forehead, and in doing so, remembered the weight of the radio.

That sound that man had played; before it, she had understood everything. Natalia remembered, connecting ends with a speed not entirely like her, that she had wondered at her ability to read ( ... )

Re: M60 divinebrushwork July 27 2010, 11:27:27 UTC

What was wrong with Takashi and Honey? Why did their way of speaking suddenly become so . . . improper? Their words seemed cheap and simplified, which struck Amaterasu as odd. The two had been so polite before and now they seemed to be talking with the same slang words that Issun liked to use ( ... )

Re: M60 mukuchi July 29 2010, 10:52:16 UTC

Okay, well, this was not how he expected to spend his evening. Then again, he really should have expected that Landel wouldn't allow anything to be so easy. It seemed like Mitsukuni was trying to coax Natalia into talking again, but Mori wondered if it would work. Tilting his head to the side, he thumped the heel of his hand against his head above his ear and then looked to Natalia again as she opened her mouth to speak, paused, and closed it ( ... )
