[ IC Thread: Doing the dishes ]

It's a sight not many get to behold. Even though Haruka's jacket is off she is still wearing the tie; she probably didn't feel like taking it off just yet. Her purpose for being in the kitchen reveals itself when one sees the dirty plates and other tableware in the kitchen, not something many people would think of when thinking of Haruka and

How is it that Haruka and Michiru can turn even washing dishes into an art? (For the record, there is woo music in the background, and rose petals are totally getting into sink, which is going to be a problem to clean up later on. Oh, how hard it is to be heroines.)

Nevertheless, here Michiru is - and if you look closely enough she's wearing that knowing smile that says she is very aware of how inane the situation looks. Perhaps that's part of the fun, one might say.

"Does it matter so much, Haruka?"

A playful and pointless statement, of course. She begins to move to the sink without waiting for an answer.

(Just imagine the bills they have to pay for the woo choir if they have to sing for them that many times.)

Haruka knows just how much certain people - for example odango atama and her friends - would be gasping and 'how is this possible'-ing at this very scene. Even though it's only dish washing.

Oh pff, way to give her not an answer and yet give one at the same time, Michiru. Haruka grabs a dish towel. She lets out a mock sigh, although there's a grin on her face instead. "I just thought it would be polite to ask it first."

Because Haruka is a very, very, very polite person. Obviously.

(well, they also fart. It's totally canon.)

Reaching the sink, Michiru gently pushes down the plug, then begins to fill it with water. Indeed, such a silly and domestic sort of chore, but it turns out dishes won't do themselves, even for superheroes. Besides... this is fun, too. Every moment with Haruka is fun - that's the point.

"Ah?" she smiles from beneath lowered lashes, her voice light as the air. "How chivalrous."

(Word of God (a cd drama play) has it they also don't pee.)

Somehow living with Michiru hadn't even been something to get used to, but rather something that felt so natural that it wasn't weird or even awkward at all. Like it had always meant to be this way. Dishes included.

Haruka puts the towel over her shoulder. There's nothing to do yet anyway. She leans just a slight bit forward towards Michiru. "You know me. I'm very chivalrous."
