[Tomorrow. Tomorrow is tomorrow. Today, she has plans.]

Hey, Winry - do you still want to go get pizza today? I can make it for lunch, but... I can't hang out the whole day.

[She will also be making a point to visit her friends today, specifically the Straw Hat House. She wants to check in on Sanji, now that she knows what's happened to him ( Read more... )

*sokka, might need something stronger than soda, *hitsugaya, *usopp, pizza can fix this?, push and pull, she's a warrior, *ginko, *winry, girl's day out, message in a bottle, *hermione, might need more than pizza, fix what you can, *toph, at the strawhat house, worst. town. ever., *edward elric, *brook, last waterbender of her tribe, out and about, *caesar, *chopper, *allen, just a girl, this isn't her war, *haruki, *buffy, putting on the responsible hat, one day more, *zoro, *nami, free time = errands

[She may see him around town, perhaps outside the item shop. Hitsugaya is out and about, simply getting a few things here and there. Seems safe enough in town now, with no dramatic animals or chocolate rain or dancing people.

Thank all that's good in this world and all the others for that.

Still, he's keeping an eye out for any strange behavior.]

[Even focused as she is, Katara isn't exactly going to NOT greet a friend.]

Hey, Hitsugaya!

likeafirework July 24 2010, 22:56:28 UTC

[Excuse him looking at her with narrowed eyes for a moment before he returns the greeting. No dramatic staring. No music. All right, she's passed the test.]

Hey. [And since beating around the bush is not something he really does:] Ready for tomorrow?

[Dude, what's that look for?

And - way to get to the point.]

markofthebrave July 24 2010, 23:22:47 UTC

Ready enough. [A half shrug.]

likeafirework July 25 2010, 03:11:29 UTC

[He rather wishes he were going, for a couple of different reasons, not the least being that he'd really like to watch her back. She's one of the first people in this place he might call a friend -- he doesn't like seeing anyone he knows go off to war without him.]

Good.

[Time for a subject change. He doesn't like this talk of drafts and war and such. Especially when he can't fight.]

Seems like the... strange stuff is over.

[She has one word to say to that and that word is:] Bleck.

markofthebrave July 25 2010, 03:33:19 UTC

But it wasn't as bad as some of the other ones - at least we didn't have to 'fall in love.'

likeafirework July 25 2010, 07:24:18 UTC

... You're not giving me much hope for future experiments.

markofthebrave July 25 2010, 16:42:02 UTC

I hate them. [It's said simply, vehemently, but without any particular inflection.] They've got no right to do what they do. It would be bad enough if they were messing with our bodies, but they're not, they change bits and pieces of who we are for a time - it's just not right. So far my 'favorite' one has been the thought experiment, and that's saying something. At least that way everyone was still who they really were.

likeafirework July 26 2010, 06:16:53 UTC

[Eugh. The thought experiment. That was horrid. He kept wanting to try to freeze that damned thought bubble until it shattered -- and, of course, that wish had been reflected in the bubble. So much hate for that, especially when he was trying so hard to keep some things guarded.]

No. They've no right. [That's a point he'll easily concede. Even not having been part of those types of experiments, he'll concede it. After all, he came back from a kidnapping so drugged he couldn't function.] But you come through it. You deal with it. And you're still yourself when it's all said and done.

[And when it's all said and done, that sense of self can only get stronger.]

markofthebrave July 26 2010, 16:29:09 UTC

[She just gives him a look. You've never had to fall in love with an enemy before and then have to deal with lingering... issues, have you. But Katara does not feel like getting into that.]

No. They can't take that away from us. We just have to adapt.

likeafirework July 28 2010, 05:23:17 UTC

One can always adapt. [Says the kid who tends to think change is an agent of the devil. Double standards? Him? Never.

Pause. So much pausing.] You lot going to keep in touch while you're over there? [It's not like he cares to know how you're doing or anything. No need to try reading any more into it that just a curious question.]

markofthebrave July 29 2010, 16:42:51 UTC

[There's a small, private, almost pained smile.] Water is the element of change.

[She starts a little at that and gives him an assessing look before bringing out a reassuring smile. It's a practiced one, nearly patented, and for all that - genuine.] We're going to try to - they said that we could use the journals out there. I might not be up for much talking, but I'll probably write a little something in it every day.
