[This morning sees Nami wake up with a whole new outlook on life. She sits in front of her mirror at home for far too long, and various housemates may find her asking unreasonable questions of the poor thing before she finally gives up and slathers green pancake makeup all over her face and draws in a few warts for good measure. A cunning disguise

[ Usagi is very princessy indeed right now. And even though she's a princess, she's still Usagi, which means she's still always hungry for food. (Not to mention a bit clueless to bad intentions, so she doesn't even notice the cackle.)

So she just goes to the plaza when she hears this message over the journals, wearing her dress. ]

[mikangirl]

[And Nami is sitting cross-legged on the fountain edge, casually peeling a mikan for herself. Hers isn't poisoned, of course. But when she sees Usagi arrive, she lowers the fruit and gives her the sweetest of smiles.]

Good afternoon.

[lunarities]

[ And Usagi will just nod a little at that, giving her a bright smile as well. There's nothing wrong with this situation, why would there be? ]

Good afternoon to you as well. Were you the one calling out over the journals?

[mikangirl]

I was! And you're a particularly beautiful young woman, I must say. I bet you've just been chased all over today, haven't you?

[lunarities]

[ Oh, that catches her off guard for a moment -- she looks a bit surprised, maybe with a slight blush. ]

A.. ah, no, nobody has been after me ever, really..

[mikangirl]

...huh, really? You must be the odd one out, then. You wouldn't believe how many princesses get into trouble in this town.

I'm impressed.

[lunarities]

Maybe it's just since I'm such a responsible princess!

[ She grins at that. Maybe she's joking just a little bit. ]

[mikangirl]

[Grin.] Well, that's always a nice thing to see in this day and age. Do you respect your parents, too?

[lunarities]

Oh, of course. [ a nod. ] My father is a great king, you know.. There has never been a king as great as him ever before!

[mikangirl]

I'm sure he's very proud of you. [Such an admiring smile!]

...oh, but my manners-- you'd like to try a mikan, yes?

[lunarities]

Oh.. Right! [ She nods again, her smile bright this time. ]

It sounded really good, so I would love to try one of them.

[mikangirl]

By all means. [Plucking a mikan from the basket for you, holding it out in the palm of her hand.] You'll never taste anything like it.

[lunarities]

[ She stares at it for a few moments before taking it from her hand. ]

Thank you, that's very kind of you! Did you get these all by yourself?

[mikangirl]

I did! I run a mikan grove just outside of town. They're the best in the village.

[...admittedly it's also the only mikan grove around. Shh.]
