Countdown

[srwuga_mods]

Arriving in Fuso at the early morning yielded an arrival at AGHS around the middle of the day. There's a festival going on, a summer one at that and there's a bunch of people and students around the area

[Gentarou visibly cringed at hearing his name being called. He's face Zodiarts, golems, Grinders, evil Kamen Riders... but facing down Ohsugi's probably one of the toughest.]

Oh, I'm in trouble... five months out of school...

[aheartstrength]

... man, what the hell did you do to Ohsugi-sensei to make him yell like that?

[ She may or may not be smirking here in her playful little way. ]

[moonpiercedrill]

Nothing! Honest! Just... he's always like this! He doesn't want to be friends with any of the students... and he's a little creepy.

[aheartstrength]

Huh... Have you tried a fruit basket as a peace offering?

[minorbeat]

(Momo is walking through the festival with an innocent and true smile on her face. There is a childish look of glee in her eyes.)

Wow, there is so much to do! What should I do first? Maybe I should get some cotton candy!

[sunshine_maiden]

This is pretty big for some local summer festival... Looking forward to it, Momo?

[Have a Sora, mostly looking back to normal, if a bit frazzled and jumpy still.]

[zetahatsudo]

[A ways away, Kamille was sitting at one of the shooting games... and he seemed somewhat mad.]

THIS GAME IS RIGGED! RIGGED DAMNIT!

[Just somewhat.]

[minorbeat]

(Momo jumps a little.)

Oh, Sora. Yes, I haven't really had the chance to have some real fun in a long time.

(Momo looks at Kamille and then the game. Momo walks next to Kamille and picks up a gun.)

You're not firing correctly. It is like shooting a real gun. Understand the recoil and adjust to it. Calm yourself and focus. Take a deep breath and...

(Momo starts firing and completely owns the game. She even gets the choice of the top prizes. She smiles gently as she gets a giant kitty plushie.)

[ During the festival, Hoshi's sampling the food and playing some of the games since she was able to get her casts off. Being back home on her old stomping grounds definitely put her in a better mood.

Well, that is until some of her fangirls (and some fanboys) notice her and immediately her eyes widen, knowing she can't make a run for it. ]

Aha... Hey, guys! It's been a while, hasn't it?

Hikari-senpai!! We've been waiting for you to come back! Not a single person's been able to break your records!

...Well, it's only been a year since I graduated, right? You have to give people some time.

But it's not the same!

You have to believe in others, all right?

But...

Believe in others! My records will be broken one day! [ Like that, she takes her customary stance that she hasn't forgotten at all. ]

Yes, ma'am!

Good, good. Now, how about if I introduce you guys to my friends? I'm sure they'd love to meet you.

[brokenaesop]

[And here's Mad passing the group by and not noticing Hoshi being fangirled. Right now he's happily nursing a freshly bought Ice-pop. What say you Hoshi? Pull Mad into the crowd and make him severely uncomfortable as only an older sister would do to a lil brother?]

[aheartstrength]

[ Luckily or unluckily for you, Mad, some of them notice him and walk right on up to him. ]

Hikari-senpai says she knows you! How do you know someone like her anywaaaay?

--Um, uh, excuse me, but-- Mad really doesn't like to be swarmed by others!

[brokenaesop]

Buh?!

[Mad sputters and stumbles backwards rapidly from the surprise person... into a bunch of delinquents Gentarou would find familiar... unlike Gen though... Mad - while good at punching stuff prooobably isn't awesome enough to take on several guys at once.]

-SMACK-WHAM-POW-THUMP-THWACK!-

GAAAH!

[And Mad goes stumbling back towards Hoshi and crashes backwards into the ground. In his defense though, those delinquents were sporting some bruises, black eyes and bloody noses themselves. He lifts up his head to give a dizzied grin to Hoshi and company]

I...kicked!!.. their asses!...whoooeey...

-THUMP-

[and now he's going to lay on the ground in a daze. He gets what's left of his ice-pop tossed onto him, leaving a bit of a mess.]

Resnick is eating two funnel cakes. That's as much as half a heart attack and that's terrible.

[saikyocivrobo]

[And Prometheus watches him in that cat-like way where it's obvious he wants something from you but it's hard to say what exactly.]

[an_alpha_wolf]

[Resnick pretends not to notice him.] I wonder which of our omnimechs I should surprise Werter with. Perhaps a Nova or Stormcrow would suit his needs...[And maybe the threat of obsolescence will put some control on Prometheus's behavior as Resnick knows from experience.]

[saikyocivrobo]

[Prometheus starts laughing in an exaggerated, if completely quiet manner.]

[emorangerpink]

[Laura's all festival'd out after Fairy Park. Today she's just enjoying the crowd - from its edges. Getting caught up in the middle of it is a little much for her, but quiet strolls wherever it's thinned out are a welcome relief from the confusion of the events since leaving the mobile island.]

Double chocolate chip mint, please.

[Ice cream cones that are in no danger of sprouting a face and talking cheerfully at you are another welcome change from the Park.]

[chases_aliens]

[That was a good point, and Dita's standing in line as she orders as well.] Double-fudge please.

[Getting her cone, she took a nip of it.] Pretty good, huh?

[emorangerpink]

Mmmm. Really nice.

[She links arms with Dita and nudges her playfully as they leave the stand.] Giving your sweet tooth a proper workout, hmmm?

[chases_aliens]

Definitely. It's nice to indulge just a little. There's a lot of calories but lets face it, I burn enough to take a nip of ice cream at times.
