[Special 003] Body Switch: Usagi-chan

Jan 27, 2011 07:19

[Well! The picture in the journal is most certainly not Mizuno Ami. It is, however, still an Asian girl, but a few years younger, with an unusual hairdo of buns and pigtails.]

I'm Usagi-chan!

[And something in Ami realizes that while some people in Luceti will remember Usagi in blond form from while she was here, many won't, and they won't know ( Read more... )

*just how much ami-chan loves usagi-chan, *what's happening to me?, *waking up in a whole new world, !event: you are what you love, *about the sailor senshi

[Well. When Robert was worrying about what sort of form changes that his friends might have, them turning into their best friends was not one that immediately came to mind - though in retrospect, it was perfectly logical. Nonetheless, he was more than a little surprised to see the somewhat-familiar face of Ami as something not-so-familiar.]

Ah, Doctor Mizuno, so they have affected you too... And your best friend? That must be... poignant for you. [And painful. Robert doesn't even want to think about how much that might have hurt him if he'd turned into a certain person.]

... Do you perhaps need any assistance, or are you alright at the moment? [Robert was serious when he said he wanted to help Ami if she had a problem. After all, it's the least he can do. She basically singlehandedly stopped him from freezing, taught him to use the journals and gave him a place to live.]

Re: [Voice] no_use_worrying January 26 2011, 22:47:50 UTC

It makes me miss everyone from home. [Can he hear that wistfulness in her voice?] But the truth is, we weren't able to see each other very often back home, either; we've been busy with our families and careers. [Usagi married and possibly with a child on the way, Rei studying in Kyoto, Makoto still nearby but busy with her flower shop (and soon to be engaged to Furuhata Motoki), and Minako touring with her singing career.]

Re: [Voice] semper_cogitans January 26 2011, 22:56:54 UTC

[Isolation. That was something Robert knew well.] I understand, Doctor Mizuno. At least somewhat... though, to be honest, I don't know if I have ever had anybody whom I could truly call a "friend" until very recently. [He neglects to mention a certain somebody from his past, both because it would hurt and because he wouldn't say it randomly over the journals.]

If you are feeling a little lonesome, I would have no qualms providing you with company if your roommate is not adverse to the proposal... [Robert catches himself. It's a bit rude, he realizes (or thinks), to ask this.] Assuming that this is not too bold or unprofessional a statement.

Re: [Voice] no_use_worrying January 26 2011, 23:02:30 UTC

[She was fourteen before she ever had a friend at all. She understands.]

No; I'd like it. I'd like you to come over.

Re: [Voice] semper_cogitans January 26 2011, 23:22:39 UTC

[His tone brightens.] Splendid. I shall do so at once.

...

[There's a moment of silence, and then...]

[Filtered to Mizuno Ami, 30%.]
(OOC: I hope this is how you filter things! xD;)

I filter this because I don't know if you are adverse to simply announcing your present location over such an unguarded medium, but would you mind telling me where you are living? ... Purely so that I can visit, of course. [Yeesh, Robert seems more and more unprofessional all the time. But at least this is a logical request.]

Re: [Voice] no_use_worrying January 26 2011, 23:36:54 UTC

[Same filter]

It's not a secret. We live at house number Three. You can come anytime, but please tell us ahead of time so we can clean up a little.

[Their secrets are very different from just where they live. What would Robert make of the super-powered soldier of love and justice?]

Re: [Voice; Filtered] semper_cogitans January 27 2011, 00:02:13 UTC

[Filter, 30%]

Whenever would be a time most prudent for all involved, I'd wager. Though I offered to do so now if you were feeling somewhat lonesome. I'd imagine memories of a best friend could evoke some unpleasant feelings as well as happy ones.

Re: [Voice; Filtered] no_use_worrying January 27 2011, 00:06:05 UTC

[Like trying to kill said friend. But Ami isn't letting herself think about that; it was several years ago and a lot of things happened back then.

It is, however, still sad to think about Usagi and think about not being with Usagi; separated by so much more than even the distance between America and Japan now.]

Then please come. I'll try to entertain you well.

Re: [Voice; Filtered/Action] semper_cogitans January 27 2011, 00:13:15 UTC

I shall then... and please, don't worry about entertaining me. I'm certain that simple conversation will be enjoyable...

[And have a little scientist hurrying outside, despite all the chaos, swaddled in a warm-looking coat, but with the lapels of that oh-so-familiar lab coat peeking out underneath. One of those strange blizzards is whipping about outside, making Robert huddle inward a little more as he carries the journal, near enough to his face so he can hopefully be heard over the wind. There's a rustle of pages as he consults one of the maps drawn up by the various guide-makers.]

Ah, you're on the opposite end of the village. That's... quite a walk. [He steels himself and continues walking; at the very least, it's a way of getting a good look at Luceti's village. Or prisoner compound. But he hasn't really looked at it for a few days, and it's like being new to it all over again, except less cold because he's actually in warm clothes.] Don't be concerned if I, er, take some time to arrive. I must confess, I don't normally do so ( ... )

Re: [Voice; Filtered/Action] no_use_worrying January 27 2011, 00:22:41 UTC

I didn't mean to make you come so far! What about meeting somewhere in-between? [She's going to feel terrible if he catches a cold coming to see her or something like that. What should she do?]

I don't mind coming out.

Re: [Voice; Filtered/Action] semper_cogitans January 27 2011, 00:38:35 UTC

[That thought HAD occurred to Robert, but...] Are you sure you wouldn't prefer the privacy of your own dwelling? Not to mention that there are generally few places to meet, unless we convened at the village square. [Robert won't lie, it'd be tough to walk across the city. Even walking to the square would be tiring, admittedly. But he really wants to make things easier for Ami, not harder.]

Re: [Voice; Filtered/Action] no_use_worrying January 27 2011, 00:43:58 UTC

But if it's bad weather outside, you shouldn't have to come out.

Re: [Voice; Filtered/Action] semper_cogitans January 27 2011, 00:47:21 UTC

I'm sure that I will be fine, should you want to meet... I mean, if it is a problem on your end, I have no issue delaying this for another time. [Robert doesn't know any of the common courtesies around this. He hasn't been invited to another person's home in years, and the only people in his home were occasional government officials.]

Re: [Voice; Filtered/Action] no_use_worrying January 27 2011, 00:55:38 UTC

[How can she explain she really does want to meet? She's no good at these sorts of things.]

What you want to do is fine.

Re: [Voice; Filtered/Action] semper_cogitans January 27 2011, 01:15:33 UTC

[Robert smiles, a little shyly. It's small and fleeting but genuine nonetheless.] Then you shouldn't worry... I'll eventually be there.

[Robert continues on his way, heading across the village with nervous steps; he's probably coming within eyesight of the centre of Luceti, now. If Ami-as-Usagi headed outside, she'd probably be able to see him now on the horizon.]

I'm within sight of the Welcome Centre now... It shouldn't take me too much longer.

Re: [Voice; Filtered/Action] no_use_worrying January 27 2011, 01:27:28 UTC

[There has to be a way to make it better, more fair, more acceptable.]

How about this: Next time, I'll come out instead. Then it'll be alright, won't it?
